#1 Darcy Kuemper – Colorado Avalanche

2021-22 Stats: .921 SV%, 2.54 GAA, 37-12-4
Age: 32
Last Contract: $4.5 million AAV
Potential Next Season: Starter

Darcy Kuemper is scheduled to be the best UFA goaltender available this offseason, however, if the Toronto Maple Leafs aren’t willing to spend the money on Jack Campbell, they most likely will not be willing to spend the money on Darcy Kuemper.

Kuemper’s stock will continue to rise the further the Avalanche progress into the playoffs, and as the top available UFA goaltender, someone will be willing to overpay him, and it won’t be the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Darcy Kuemper’s last deal was a two-year deal and his first making more than $1.85 million per season.  He’ll most likely go to the highest bidder, and I wouldn’t blame him.

He may not feel the need to stay in Colorado either since he’s only been there for a season.

In my opinion, the Toronto Maple Leafs would be best to spend their goaltending budget on a younger goaltender with promise and an older goaltender that can still perform.  My ideal choice would be a tandem of Marc-André Fleury and Ville Husso.

The Leafs spent nearly $5.5 million on Campbell/Mrázek last season, and they may be able to get Fleury/Husso for around the same price.
