If the Leafs tail off and die in this last stretch will Reimer only be remembered for his deflation ?
That and the game 7 3rd period where he couldn't stop a beach ball. Choke.
He'll be above Vesa, Raycroft, Giguere, and Gustavsson simply because he actually had a good year and a solid playoff series.
I still can't bring myself to watch highlights of that game
Sadly he will be remembered for Game 7 and this season's collapse.
In 15 years they will have a Saturday night pre-game ceremony in his honour of his accomplishment at the ACC. He will be feted along with Vesa Toskala and Andrew Raycroft.
When has he posted a sub 2.00 gaa in any season? This guy is almost an urban legend in torontoHe's 110% the reason for the team stumbling. I mean who can you blame for a team scoring 2.3 goals/game over the last 10 games? The skaters? Maybe if he could score a few goals every game, he wouldn't have to make as many saves.
Reimer isn't stealing games, but he's not squandering them either. It's a little disappointing how quickly people have turned on him just because he isn't posting the <2.00 GAA needed to give this team a chance to win.
Unfortunately true. Its already been forgotten he single handedly took this team to the playoffs last year
I'll take that bet.When all is said and done, James will be remembered for a fine career, more than just OK.
