Jeff Glass News

The Maple Leafs have signed Jeff Glass to an AHL contract.

The Maple Leafs lost their goaltending depth when both Curtis McElhinney and Calvin Pickard were claimed on waivers a couple of days ago. The 32-year-old netminder was 3-7-3 with a 3.36 GAA and .898 SV% in 15 games with the Blackhawks a season ago.

Glass gave up two goals on 22 shots in the Blackhawks loss to the Flames on Tuesday. Anton Forsberg suffered a defeat vs. Dallas on Thursday, so the Blackhawks will go back to Glass tonight in Minnesota. After winning three of his first five games in the NHL, Glass has gone winless in his last six appearances, posting a 3.23 GAA and .897 SV% in the process.

Glass allowed five goals on 43 shots in the Blackhawks loss to Vegas last Friday. Anton Forsberg went on to start the last two games, but Glass will get back between the pipes tonight vs. the Jets. Since being recalled, the 32-year-old has gone 2-1-1 with a 3.51 GAA and .908 SV% in four starts.

Glass will start Friday vs. the Golden Knights.

Glass stopped 23 of 25 shots in the Blackhawks win in New York on Wednesday. It was another strong outing for the 32-year-old rookie, who has allowed just nine goals on 109 shots (.917 SV%) in his first three career starts. Despite his recent success, Glass should remain on the bench tonight as he faced the shockingly impressive Vegas Golden Knights.

Glass surrendered four goals on 39 shots in the Blackhawks loss in Calgary on Sunday. In his first two starts with Chicago, Glass has allowed seven goals on 84 shots (.917 SV%). Head coach Joel Quenneville will continue to roll with the 32-year-old veteran, but he is not a great fantasy option.

Glass was outstanding in his NHL debut, turning aside 42 of the 45 shots that he faced in the Blackhawks 4-3 overtime win in Edmonton. After a stellar performance the Blackhawks will go right back to the 32-year-old who will start in his hometown. Glass has a career .904 SV% in 175 AHL games and a .916 SV% in 218 KHL games so it’s hard to envision him replicating Friday’s performance tonight.
