Reimer. remember the time he outperformed bernier in any category? I dont
- GardinerExpress



Why is it so difficult for some people to grasp the notion "that Bernier is not an elite goaltender"?

Please notice that there is no mention of James Reimer in that question - because Bernier's and Reimer's respective performances only form input to the Coach's decision making.

I'll make it incredibly simple for the Bernier wives to understand:
1) lets assume that Reimer is the worst back-up in the NHL
2) lets assume that Bernier is the bottom five of starters in the NHL
3) simple question. a. should Bernier have gotten any more than the lowest possible contract offer during the summer - CLEARLY not. (FYI I told you so)
4) simple question b ... when did Bernier look his best as a keeper - answer: when getting lots and lots of shots from the perimeter like he was in particular in his first season in Toronto
5) simple question c (most important) - should any NHL team be satisfied with their designated #1 being in the bottom five of goalies league wide? HOPEFULLY yo u don't need this one answered for you.

In short he sucks - and yes of course several excuses can be made... i) team in front of him ii) bad starts are just a short term problem (not!) iii) he has the attitude to work through his problems iv) but he's a former first round pick!

MLSE wants to send a message - call up one of the Marlies goalies, put Reimer in the press box and dress Bernier as the backup.

Exactly, what these Hab fans are trying to stir is beyond me. We are 9 (frank)in games in. I personally think they are playing good.

Far better, anyway, and far better to watch.

The Reimer Apostles out in force last night. Should be prevalent Friday night, not so much on Saturday.

Never thought of it that way.

No, just Brenier, I don't get this guy.

If snot was dynamite, he couldn't blow his nose.

Or is he out playing soccer with Nelson ?

Reimer was terrible positionally, last game. He gets lost in his net.
