Reports here in Toronto from local sports radio (Fan 590) are saying Craig Anderson will get the start for Florida in tonight's game against the Maple Leafs, as regular starter Tomas Vokoun has some sort of an ankle problem.

Obviously it won't help the Leafs.
Maybe McCabe could get hurt...
WOW! Teams are really bending over backwards in order to give points to the Leafs! The excuses are running thin...
In the Leafs defense Sabourin left that game injured in the first.
In the Leafs defense
You've lost me.
Maybe the Vokoun injury is legitimate. Or maybe its a minor thing he would have played through if the Panthers didn't think they could win without him.
When teams you could be battling for a playoff spot with later this year don't take you seriously enough to play their starting goalie, maybe thats a sign of a real problem.
Or, Vokoun is hurt enough that they think that it's better to rest him one game in order to get healthy instead of running the risk of losing him for 15 games.
And why would you rest your goalie against a team that just scores. If anything, they should rest Jokinen since they know that anyone can score on the Leafs.
laydownthelaw - it's a big conspiracy that been forced to be more obvious this year. The CBC needs the Leafs in the playoffs.
Oh jesus christ. That asshole has been killing me lately, and now that he's finally playing like he should, he gets hurt. Speaking of goalies bleeding me dry, Sieve-rosuff isn't making things easier.
Figures, a day after I post an entry about how Florida is my dark horse team, this has to happen.
Kipper is killing me too!
Damn Finns.
