Toronto Maple Leafs’ goaltender James Reimer trains with Vancouver Canucks which causes rumours
James Reimer, a Canadian professional ice hockey player and a goaltender who plays for Toronto Maple Leafs in the National Hockey League (NHL), is currently in Vancouver, where he is playing with Vancouver Canucks’ players and that is causing some rumours
about his transfer.
On Monday, the Maple Leafs’ goalie was there with Canucks’ locked out players at Father David Bauer Arena of UBC and suddenly there were rumours on Twitter that the deal has been done for the player to move from Toronto to Vancouver and when the lockout
will end, he will playing for his new team.
The 24-year-old player could not do anything but laugh at the rumours and said with a sarcastic smile,
"I mean if you want the truth, go to Twitter”.
He cleared that there is no truth in those rumours and he would still be a Maple Leaf player when the lockout ends and new season begins, as he said
"That's funny, I didn't really think of that. I'm sure the rumours will be spreading, but as far as I know when the season comes back I'm still a Maple Leaf."
Reimer also clarified that he is in Vancouver only to meet his in-laws and wife, who live there and would stay at their place for one more week and will train with Canucks in the mean time, as he also said,
"My wife is from out here so it's a chance to see some family”.
The last part of the 2011-2012 season was missed by the Morweena, Manitoba native because of the upper body injury (neck injury) and he did not play any game after 29th March. He was supposed to be back into the training camps in September.
According to Reimer he is fully fit and healthy enough to start playing once again in the NHL but the NHL lockout is a hurdle. He thinks he would have been playing in case there was no lockout, as he added,
"I'm healthy, I was ready to go if the season had started on time. The extra time to heal doesn't hurt, but I would have been ready to go had we started when we were supposed to."
