[Reimer Story is Far From Finished - Jeff Blair from the Globe and Mail](http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/reimer-story-is-far-from-finished/article1943518/?utm%5Fmedium=Feeds%3A%20RSS%2FAtom&utm%5Fsource=Hockey&utm%5Fcontent=1943518)

> There is reason to worry about [James Reimer](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54304/james-reimer?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) only if you buy into the notion that he is little more than lightning in a bottle, destined to be another manifestation of the [Toronto Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)’ chronic inability to draft and develop their own goaltender.
