Reimer went 19-8-5 with a 2.46 GAA and .924 SV% last season and played great in his first career playoff appearance. He was the better of the two goalies in the preseason, thus he starts opening night. He will split time with Jonathan Bernier this season, limiting his value, but behind a good Leafs team he should be able to stockpile a lot of wins.
We already know that the two are going to split each of the first two games, but for now Reimer is the likely starter for the season opener. Bernier is a native of Quebec, but Reimer has been the better of the two goalies in camp. We will await for the official word, which will come tomorrow. For now consider Reimer "likely".
Reimer's playoff legacy continued to grow in Toronto last night. The 25-year-old netminder stopped 29 of 30 shots in the 2-1 win that froced Game 7 tonight in Boston. He has the 12th ranked GAA (2.58) and 8th ranked SV% (.932) in the playoffs. However none of that really matters in a Game 7, anything can happen.

Reimer was peppered yet again in Game 4 when he faced 45 shots. However he allowed four goals including an OT winner to the red-hot David Krejci.

Reimer allowed four goals on 37 shots in the 5-2 loss in Game 3. He currently ranks 16th out of 20 in GAA (3.33) and 11th in SV% (.915). Tonight is a huge game for the Maple Leafs, they will need Reimer to be at his best so they don't go down 3-1.
