Man does Boston ever struggle to manufacture offense. Just seem to have no idea what to do once over the blueline.
Everyone wants to put Reimer on a pedestal but truth be told he's J-S Giguere part two. Tries to play a blocking style and is very weak up high especially glove side. Watch the way he tries to raise his glove on high shots, its more of a shoulder shrug than anything else.
Not once did Boston test him up high. They keep trying to muscle pucks into the net which just isn't going to work given Reimer's ability to fight off low shots and Toronto's collapsing defense that outnumbers the Bruins down low and in the slot.
If Boston makes the necessary adjustments they'll win tomorrow. Not sure they will though; something seems to be missing with them this year.
