James Reimer Gets The Nod On Friday
6 years agoFlorida Panthers goaltender James Reimer will return to the crease on Friday after sitting out Tuesday's 6-5 shootout loss to Philadelphia. Head coach Bob Boughner gave Michael Hutchinson a chance to end the team's losing streak, but it didn't go well, so it's Reimer's turn again. He sits on a 0-2-1 record ahead of tonight's game at Washington with a 3.62 goals-against average and a .885 save percentage. It's another tough spot for the Cats, as they have lost 11 of their last 14 trips to Washington, although Reimer does have a decent personal record against the Caps, going 4-4-2 in 10 career appearances with a 2.16 goals-against average and a .937 save percentage.
