One of the more revealing quotes comes from former Ducks and current Toronto goaltending consultant Francois Allaire regarding Vesa Toskala, who came to the Ducks with Jason Blake for Giguere.
"Vesa is not a guy who likes to build relations with coaches," Allaire told the Star.
"He preferred to be by himself. To do that, to say, `I’m okay by myself, I know what to do,’ you have to be really good in this league in 2010.

To be fair, I’d be quite surprised if Randy Carlyle built relations with anybody, so maybe this works out.

And besides, I suspect Vesa will just sit in the Finnish corner with Teemu, Saku, and Nokelainen. They can play Finnish Balderdash together.
