Reimer's horrible man. No need for him here. Gus one of the most overrated backups in recent history. I'd take Johnson before Reimer.

.914 career save percentage isn't overrated, the problem with him is his consistency.

Playing on the leafs didn't help his case. he is actually someone I think will have a good career in anyplace but Toronto

He won't make that much of a difference then Nabokov IMO. I think he's had maybe 1-2 30 win seasons.

He's had no 30 win season.

He gets an avg of 16 wins a season on a terrible Toronto team. He'd be a better option than Enroth who I feel is moved in the offseason.
- dadeadhead


Agreed, I posted it 2 few days ago I would rather have Reimer and Neuvirth split the net than Enroth and Neuvirth

Neuvirth/Reimer>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Neuvirth/Enroth.



I think Pittsburgh takes a run at him if they can move Flower.

The best thing would be . Sign Reimer and have him help us sweep the Leafs the coming season.

He's a quality tender.

Someone who can get you 33 starts and put up ok-good stats.

He had a gaa of 3.29 last year but had a sv% of .911.

That defense was terrible.

other players I think that could be in play this off season

mike richards
kesler
parenteau
bourque
wheeler or ladd

- homiedclown


Umm we are rebuilding not trying to make a play for the 10th overall next season. No need for those old players that are either injury riddled or have not much left in the tank. Only ones I'd go for are Wheeler or Ladd. But I'd rather have Kane from Jets instead.

Like I said, If they can move Fleury, Pittsburgh will go after Reimer. He will do well there too.

The best thing would be to stay away from the overrated backup goalie that is Reimer and stick with Neuvirth/Enroth.

Then we should be looking for 2 new goalies as both of the guys we have are overrated backups.

Ours isn't much better (if at all). He's a good goalie but he's got his flaws, rebound control being the big one. I wouldn't be opposed to him but I wouldn't be thrilled either. Certainly wouldn't consider overpaying for him.

They serve the purpose this season . Who knows maybe one of them steps up . I would have liked to get Holtby in that trade.

Still too early to tell. We could end up with Halak.

I would take the tandem of April Reimer and James Reimer over Elisha Cuthbert and Dion all day just for this

They will finish 29th or 30th next season and will be guaranteed a future all star player.
- sippyd

Im going to love hearing from all the fans here after Buffalo doesn't even fall into the bottom five next year.Also scoring doesn't always equate to wins.If Nolan puts in a good defensive system its possible to win with 2 or 3 goals per and I don't see TM sitting still if he can upgrade in FA.Everyones assuming TM wont make any moves and our rookies and kids wont progress or be better.Oh well we shall see.

If (and that's a big if) Neuvirth can stay healthy and give you 50 starts. He'll win you 20-25 of them and get you points in 6-8 others.

- dadeadhead

I don't see Flower being moved.If he flounders in the next round no one will want him and he remains with the Pens till the end of his contract which I belive is one more season.

There will be a team that strikes out in the Goalie market and will get him on the cheap.
