Jean-Sebastien Giguere will start against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday for the first time since he left the club as a free agent.
Toronto acquired Giguere in a trade during the 2009-10 campaign, but his stay with the Leafs didn't go as he had hoped. Giguere was solid for the remainder of 2009-10, but he struggled last season with a 2.87 GAA and .900 save percentage. By the time the 2010-11 campaign had ended, Giguere had lost the starting job to James Reimer. That all being said, Giguere said that the Leafs were great to him and he's not at all bitter about what happened. "I really enjoyed Toronto. It was a great place to play, and my family really liked the city," Giguere said. "The people were very respectful, and the people are such big Leafs fans. They really love the players."
