Maybe there was a reason for that?
But yes, up until this season, he was an average back up. But reimer has improved his technical play alot over the summer, he's looked much better this year. I've liked his play this season.
Is he a full time starter? dunno.
Lets play out the season and see.

Ya thats what i mean. I think he's earned a shot at it. but again people are still righting him off and looking for the next available goalie like we did when we brought in bernier. Just seems like reimer can never do well enough to impress anyone here

Finally getting Kessel back

and they will retain 2 mill of his contract also.

The thing about these Stamkos is going to Toronto posters, is that if/when Stamkos doesn't come to Toronto, the rest of us will hear about it for the next few years. The two or three saying this stuff will bugger off and leave us to mop up the poop.

Heck Susan Surandon even in the Rescue Me years was so good.
- Fakepartofme

She never did anything for me.

But that's probably because I was respecting The Law's territory - he was interested, so I backed off.

Bro code.

Respect it.

Semin anyone?

It's possible that Stamkos wants to play for the Leafs.

The same way Suter and Parise wanted to play for the Wild.

I'd rather give up a 1st rounder + pick/player for Samsonov / Vasilevskiy / Gibson and have Reimer sharing starting duties for next two years before any of these guys take over as a legit top10 NHL starting goalie.

No more first rounders.
Keep them

Susan Sarandon, circa 1989, was my Mrs. Robinson. Well, in my mind she was.

Bull Durham.

God damn, I wish that 1st wasn't lottery protected. GMs are extra weary of getting Burked these days.

imo it should been only the 1st year and not the 2nd year as well.

What if.

What if he does sign in Toronto.

Imagine the stuff you'll be mopping up then? Leaf fans will go nuts.

Thought you'd never ask.

- Pecafan Fan

Oh yeah. I know it's possible. I just have the weird nagging faint feeling in my head, that as Leafs fans, things can go south quickly.

For the life of me I can't pinpoint as to why I have that feeling

Bozak with another very good game last night, does not deserve the crap he gets around here.

Phaneuf at times has been pretty good but dear lord, he can't get to the puck to make a pass out of his zone, he looks around to Gardiner to get it and he promptly passes it into someones skates.

Going back to my old L4L site 3 years ago, I wrote about Sparks and said he is going to make it with the Leafs, so far so good.

Which is a fantastic movie.

You realize that Samsonov and Vasilevskiy are both 1st round picks as well right?
And Gibson 2nd rounder.

Leafs can't wait to have a starting goalie 5y from now, so it would make complete sense to switch a non top10 1st rounder 2016 for a 1st round pick earlier years (knowing which guy you would be getting and how he has developed after being drafted).

What do you do with Bernier?
I think they move Reimer first.

It is still a long shot, better to think about Marner and Nylander with the Leafs next year as sure bets.

To be fair LeafMan. No Leafs player deserves the crap that they get here.
