James Reimer Earns Third Straight Victory
5 years agoCarolina Hurricanes goaltender James Reimer earned his third consecutive win as his team defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning on the road 3-2 on Saturday. The Manitoba native was spectacular in this one, allowing just two goals on 38 shots against in the contest. Following an offseason trade from Florida, the 31-year-old has actually provided great streaming value as the Canes' backup netminder - posting five wins, a 2.64 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage and one shutout in nine starts. Reimer appears to have put his previous two sub-par seasons in the rear-view mirror and should be considered as a legitimate spot-starter moving forward.
