His season SV% is .907... but ... October 1st through December 7th, Reimer was on fire. In the 20 games since then, he's been a dumpster fire. I checked his game log at
http://mapleleafs.nhl.com/club/player.htm?id=8473503&season=20132014&view=gamelog
- From October 1st to December 7th, he averaged .932 SV%
- From December 12th to April 5, he averaged .886 SV%
I don't know what caused this collapse, but he's "performed" at a sub-P****** level the last half of the season, which is incredibly bad. He gives up juicy rebounds, and is down on the ice a lot, like someone we know. Do not want.
Hutchinson looks better suited. His first game looked a lot more confident than what we've been used to. I could easily see him holding the fort for a couple of years, backed up by Pasquale. If anything, I could see him competing with Hellebucyk+Comrie when they try to step up to the Jets in a few years.
