Classless Horachek move at Leafs - Preds.

[Kamiccolo]

Bernier gets cut and has to leave for repairs, and Reimer goes in, team losing 2-0. They get 3 goals and Reimer made a few huge saves, the momentum shifted.

Bernier comes back on the bench, and Horachek pulls Reimer, and Bernier lets in one the next few shots.

Reimer looked devastated.

I like Bernier more but thats just disrespectful

 

[izzy]

Something bad seems to happen to Reimer every other week.

 

[Quares27]

Who cares? Bernier is obviously much better, if he's good to go then put him back in. I'm baffled by how certain people act like the Leafs always owe Reimer a favor.

 

[BurghThang]

how is that "classless"?

"Classless" is overused everywhere...everything's classless

Hindsight bad coaching move...not classless

 

[GeauxPreds]

we'll give you a 4th for Reimer, just get him to switch jerseys with hutton right now.

 

[GOAT AINEC]

It's pretty obvious Horacheck doesn't like Reimer. Bernier has been letting in brutal softies every game yet keeps getting the starts.

It's classless because Reimer doesn't get a lot of time to play and the ice tilted the other way and he was playing lights out and got pulled for Bernier who has let in 3, almost 4 goals.

 

[dubey]

I shed a tear for Reimer

 

[HP00]

A bit off topic but Fisher is having a good year, happy for him.

 

[izzy]

How can people not see this as a disrespectful play? You don't just pull a goalie for absolutely no reason when they've brought you back.

Like I said...in hind sight...a bad coaches decision.

This is the big leagues...coach plays who he thinks gives the team the best chance to win...maybe he was wrong

Still has nothing to do with "class"

 

[Leafidelity]

Horachek is the General Patton this tank needs. Putting a second goalie in cold on the night, pure genius.

Reimer isn't the #1! If Bernier can play he plays. How is that disrespectful. Reimer needs to know his role. I'm so sick of the Reimer apologists. He's a ****ing back-up.

Reimer got called in to replace Bernier, if Bernier can come back then Reimer sits. It's pretty damn simple.

Reimer apologist, yeah. I don't care who the two goalies are, it's a disrespectful move.

 

[Kamiccolo]

Another goal against Bernier. Riemer is going to ask for a trade look at his face.

 

[Claypool]

It's called tanking.

 

[Sarcastic]

Makes me remember the time Dany Sabourin was upset that Luongo went back into a game after coming back from the restroom.

if i was nonis i'd provide riemer free for loan for the rest of this game

 

[Stats01]

I love Horachek. This guy is a a tank commander. What an epic move that was!!

You probably won't see something like that again

 

[vybnji]

It's a good coaching move if you are trying to tank. It's worked, Bernier couldn't find the puck in front of him.

 

[PromNite]

He should wait until the game is a certain loss and then put Reimer back in just to be an *******

Thats it, take their pick!

 

[Warden of the North]

I dont know if classless or disrespectful, but I do know its a bad decision. Let Bernier sit out the last period. No point in risking further injury

 

[Dr Pepper]

Pretty dumb move by the worst head coach in the league.

I guess we shouldn't be surprised, really.
