Allsports article on the Maple Leafs signing James Reimer to a new 1.8 million a year, three year contract. Reimer now gets the chance to become number one in the net
Allsports thought that today since game five in the Stanley Cup Final goes tonight, he would discuss a good move made by his home town Toronto Maple Leafs for the sports news and sports on the web. The move in question was that the Maple leafs have signed James Reimer to a three year, 5.4 million dollar deal. This works out to 1.8 million a season for Reimer. It gives him some security but also does not put a big hit onto the Leafs salary cap. If Reimer performs as he did last year when he was instrumental in the Leafs playoff run that came up just short, he would be a little under paid. But having said that he was also rewarded for only about half a season of service. The three years will give Reimer a chance to refine his craft without the pressure of not knowing where he will end up. The Toronto Brass have given him the reins to steer the sled he just has to seize them.
