Vesa Toskala is a Finnish goalie on the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Toskala was drafted by San Jose in 1995, and remained playing in the Finnish SM-liiga. Toskala ended up splitting time the entire time he played in San Jose, as Evgeni Nabokov and Miika Kiprusoff were both beginning their careers as star goaltenders. Toskala always performed well in San Jose, but never played more than 38 games in a season. In 2006-07, he won 26 games and posted a 2.35 GAA. Toskala was signed by Toronto in 2007. At first, he split time as a starter with Andrew Raycroft, but his numbers were much better by the middle of the season, and he is now the official starting goalie in Toronto.
