Told ya

I predict they will settle.

So is he actually staying or still being shopped? Haven't really been following

$2.3 per year x 2 yrs for Reimer with Leafs.

I'm sure they're keeping their eyes and ears open, but the market is dry and who's a better backup available for that price?

Reimer = Bernier insurance.

How is Reimer insurance?

Bernier went down with an injury last year and Reimer was brutal.

dreger is saying 2.3. so we are paying 5.2 for goaltending, which is decent

Reimer's play the last quarter of last year was far from decent.

Surprised it's a 2 year deal..

agreed. im willing to give him the chance to bounce back, cuz he sure as hell bounced back during the lockout season after a miserable year

The question is will the team give him a chance, because whenever he was in net after the Olympics, they played like they had no confidence in him at all.

@thejustinfisher: By my count, that's just shy of $6.5M in cap space left. Leafs only need to sign Gardiner. Pretty successful offseason so far.

Anyone interested in Tatar?

- MCharisma91

It's enticing to a team who may pick him up in a trade that he is locked in for 2 years
Arb would have been only a 1 year ruling as he was set to be a ufa due to him hitting 27 years of age

A team getting him - if he gets traded - doesn't get screwed into having to overpay next summer if he has a good year this year to keep him

He will get moved I believe before the start of the season or during the start of the season

Yes the Wings are
