Leafs GM Brad Treliving says the plan for Joseph Woll is to get him up to speed. The goaltender will not speak today. Says the goalie has been skating every other day for the past few weeks. Not unreasonable to expect Woll to get some conditioning games with the Marlies.
We are all excited he is back here. We're glad to have him on the ice, in the locker room, and around the guys. He is a very prepared guy. He does a lot of preparation off the ice. He is an extremely hard worker; an extremely hard worker. There were times last year when we had to sort of pull him back in practice a little bit. He is a second- and third-effort guy on the ice in practice.
The highlight of Reimer's career was definitely during Game 5 and Game 6 of the 2013 NHL Playoffs against the Boston Bruins. With the Leafs down 3-1 in the series, Reimer stopped 72 of 74 shots in Game 5 and 6, helping the team force a Game 7 on the road. I hate to talk about the down of his career, but it came one game later, when he was unfortunately in net for the worst collpase in Leafs history,
