I've been watching him and his brother Brett with interest the last few years (my mom works with their dad), and I was kinda surprised as well to see this move, especially to Edmonton. I watched the game last night and thought he looked decent and chippy, as evidenced by his willingness to go after Flatters after the check from behind. He had an AWESOME scrap with Garet Hunt of the Giants (they grew up together and apparently hate each other) when Brennan was with Everett earlier this year.
Don't know if you watched the Sportsnet broadcast, but they had Brandon Sutter on for about ten mins during the second period, and he didn't mention anything about Brett at all, just that his brother helps the Rebels with video and stuff.
EDIT: as for Reimer, I read that a deal with Brandon was close to being done but fell through.
