Reimer

I'm just creating this thread to keep an eye on James Reimer.  He looks like he didn't have a great d?but against Vancouver over the weekend.  It will be interesting to see how he does and where he winds up signing.  There was an article about him this week where he flat out denied the $6 million contract rumour and he said he would be open to signing anywhere.  The article speculated that Calgary would be a good fit.

I wish nothing but the best for the guy!  I always really liked him as a Leaf.  He was inconsistent but when he was on he was a really great goalie.
 
Reimer made 31 saves tonight to record a shutout in his 2nd start as a Shark, bringing his stats as a Shark to:

1-1-0-0
1.54 GAA
0.946 Save %

Whats wrong with Optimus Sharkski???? >:(

Optimus Shark would be entirely uninspired but at least understandable.  But Sharkski?  Why Sharkski?  It reads like the forced marriage of Optimus Prime/Reim and Starsky and Hutch, and fails to deliver either comedy or insight.

Just my humble opinion.

I would have gone with James Sharkticon, but, admittedly, I'm a Transfomers nerd.

Dude, he wouldn't be a Sharkticon, he's clearly a Sharktobot.

Sharktobots aren't a thing. Sharkticons are!

As someone who has a Grimlock tattoo - I approve this post.

I add ski onto just about everybodys name, gives a nice homogenization.

Seriously good work James on your first shutout in 3 years, you are a great guy and deserve success.
Oh and please come back home in July.
 
I don't know why people were so taken aback by the 6 million per figure. Being as he's almost certainly going to want 4-5 million, it seems pretty likely he'd start by asking for 6.
 
A 2 shot shutout for Reimer v Arizona last night.

By 2 you mean 25. ;)
 
Save percentage back up to .922, 9th in the league. Tied or just .001 above Fleury, Lundqvist, Quick, Holtby, and Luongo. I'm very curious to see what he signs for this summer. I still don't think he's really looked at as a definite #1 goaltender by the rest of the league. I wonder if he ends up pricing himself out of the market.

No no. It was a suffocation defensive performance by the Sharks D..  :-\

Yes. Sorry.

It's really interesting because he really might be one of those guys who falls between both roles and either gets lucky and gets a team without a starter to way overpay for him, or he's going to sit around until September and sign a small 1-year contract.  Very interested in seeing what happens. 

I really kind of hope that Jones gets hurt (not really) and Reimer gets a chance to play in the playoffs and redeem that Game 7.  I think it's pretty clear that the Leafs are going to move on from him unless they find a way to unload Bernier in the offseason.
