Didn't Reimer started a few in a row when Bernier was nursing an injury? I'm also pretty sure that the last game resulted in 3 goals against on 12 shots and Reimer being pulled.
Sure, but you can't expect him to be perfect, or get near-perfect after 3 games every time. That's the only time he's played 3 in a row this season.
So when a guy lays an egg and the other guy comes on to not only win that game for you, but puts you on a 'streak' playing fantastic, the other guy should be given another shot?
I'm not saying anything even close to that, and I have no idea where you thought I said that. All I'm saying is that Reimer hasn't really had an opportunity to get going the way he can. Bernier has had bad stretches too, but would go right back out after 1 or 2 games by Reimer.
And my point is, Reimer had an opportunity. He could of stolen the net from Bernier and never gave it back. He didn't. He'll get another opportunity....it just won't be right now as Bernier has done what Reimer failed to do in early December
