Leafs recall goalie Rynnas as Reimer recovers

Jussi Rynnas

The Toronto Maple Leafs have recalled goalie Jussi Rynnas from the AHL to back up Ben Scrivens while James Reimer recovers from an MCL knee strain.

Rynnas, 25, is 8-8-1 with a .913 save percentage with the Marlies this season. His play, according to head coach Dallas Eakins, has been “adequate.”

Rynnas started one game for the Leafs in 2011-12, surrendering seven goals on 30 shots in a 7-1 loss to the Flyers on March 29.

Reimer is expected to miss at least a week with his injury. The Leafs have back-to-back games Monday and Tuesday in Florida and Tampa Bay, respectively, so it’s possible Rynnas could see some action.
