Will the Red Wings bring back Reimer?
The Red Wings brought in James Reimer to back up goaltender Vile Husso last season but after Husso's injury, Alex Lyon stepped up as the number 1 goaltender.
Reimer struggled for the majority of the season but finished on a high note, winning his last 5 of 6 games. Overall, Reimer put up a 3.11 GAA and .904 save percentage in 25 games with a 11-8-2 record.

While these numbers are not incredible, they are definitely solid for a back up who was only making $1.5 Million.
Since Reimer will now be a free agent, it will be interesting to see if he is brought back, given that both Lyon and Husso are healthy.
