Reimer signed a professional tryout agreement with Toronto on Friday, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
The Maple Leafs needed an extra goaltender, as Joseph Woll took a leave of absence Tuesday to attend to a personal family matter. Anthony Stolarz is the No. 1 netminder in Toronto, but the Maple Leafs did not want to rely on youngster Dennis Hildeby to back up Stolarz to start the season. The 37-year-old Reimer will stabilize the spot until Woll returns. Reimer was 10-10-2 with a 3.04 GAA and an .896 save percentage across 24 regular-season appearances between two lowly teams, Anaheim and Buffalo, in 2024-25.

Reimer stopped 21 of 25 shots in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
The Flyers scored a goal after the Sabres' empty-netter, but Reimer was able to guide this win across the finish line. The 37-year-old goalie won eight of his last 10 outings this season, though there were some bumpy performances in that stretch. Overall, he ends the campaign at 10-10-2 with a 3.04 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 24 outings between the Sabres and the Ducks. After the game, Reimer told reporters he and his family would take a couple of weeks to decide if he'll continue his playing career, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. If he comes back for another year, he'll be an unrestricted free agent July 1.

Reimer will guard the home goal Thursday versus the Flyers, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer took over the No. 1 job for the Sabres late in the season, but he has lost his previous two outings, allowing 10 goals on 61 shots in that span. The 37-year-old goalie had previously won seven games in a row. He'll have a favorable matchup Thursday for fantasy managers looking to make a final push in the goaltending categories.

Reimer stopped 24 of 31 shots in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
This was the second half of a back-to-back set for the Sabres, and Reimer didn't play well behind a likely tired team. This is just his second bad performance since taking over as the primary goalie March 20. He's 7-3-0 in that span, putting him at 9-10-2 with a 2.99 GAA and an .898 save percentage over 23 appearances between the Sabres and the Ducks. Reimer will likely get at least one more start in 2024-25.

Reimer turned aside 27 shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
The Sabres grabbed a 2-0 lead in the first period, but the team's offense went cold after that as the Jackets came roaring back in the third. Reimer saw his seven-game win streak snapped, but he's still allowed more than three goals only once in nine outings since taking over as Buffalo's No. 1 netminder, posting a 2.55 GAA and .916 save percentage during that stretch.
