Rapports de dépistage de James Reimer

Has only played five games since December 27th.
Mixed results overall ... but last two games (Feb 17 / 25th) were both solid starts ... two wins ... one via shutout vs Calgary ... stopped 72 of 74 shots he faced
Veteran back-up at this stage of his career
Butterfly style. Mid-range athleticism. There are times he makes himself 'small' when fronting the shooter and dropping / leans forward or sits 'down' in the butterfly - exposes room over his shoulders.
Still has enough game to steal some points for his team on occasion.
Expiring contract. Pending UFA. 35 years old. Cap hit = $1.5M - Contract armed with 7 team no trade clause.

Veteran goalie who has hit the wall in recent segment of games.
Dating back to starts between December 11th - 27th - he posted a GAA of 4.94 and save percentage of .851 - over five starts.
Streaky back up. Good size. Butterfly style. Average quickness.
Team looking to acquire Reimer is banking on his veteran experience and ability to adjust to new surroundings - while providing spot duty positive starts.
The kind of goalie who is best when the group in front of him is tight and organized.

Earned a shutout in his first start of the (23/240 season vs. Columbus. Followed up with a win over Calgary, allowing two goals.
Veteran goalie. Off to a solid start. Good size but sits low in his butterfly / makes himself smaller in the net.
Has the ability to run hot for short periods of time. Not a goalie, at this stage, who can play a high volume of games in a row.
Butterfly style. Crease composure ranges. Lateral push is decent but there are times his read/react leads to too much motion in his crease. Battles. Does whatever he can to make a stop. Low net coverage is more reliable than high net due to posture. Tends to get exposed high glove.
