Carolina Hurricanes: James Reimer is the Season’s Biggest Surprise

James Reimer has had an illustrious career. In his sixth season with the Toronto Maple Leafs, he was traded to the San Jose Sharks. He then signed with the Florida Panthers to backup Roberto Luongo before finding himself in a trade for Scott Darling and a sixth round pick from the Carolina Hurricanes.

To be honest, at the beginning of the season, I was not convinced that a player that was almost bought out by Florida, a team that had no real back-up behind newly signed Sergei Bobrovsky, would have anything to bring to a tandem that was obviously going to be led by Petr Mrazek.
