Overview

• Anthony Stolarz is set to handle starting duties with Woll out indefinitely, leaving Toronto thin on proven NHL experience behind him.
• Reimer, 37, returns to the franchise that drafted him in 2006 after logging 525 NHL games with a .910 save percentage across stops in Florida, Carolina, San Jose, Detroit, Anaheim and Buffalo.
• During his first Toronto stint, he appeared in 207 regular-season games with an 85-76-23 record, a .914 save percentage and 11 shutouts before a 2016 trade.
• Pro Hockey Rumors reports the Leafs had only six combined NHL games in their current pipeline, all from Dennis Hildeby last season, underscoring the need for experienced cover.
• The PTO lets Reimer compete for a roster spot during the final preseason tune-ups—Saturday vs. Montreal and Oct. 2 vs. Detroit—before the Oct. 8 home opener against the Canadiens.
