James Reimer was brought in by the Panthers to strengthen our goalie tandem. Previously, Al Montoya was the former backup to Roberto Luongo. The big Cubano played all but two seasons with the Cats. His first season (2014-15) proved to be a struggle, as he held a weak .892 SV%.
Many worried for the upcoming year, unsure if Montoya could handle the backup position. Thankfully, he stepped up and recorded a .919 SV%. A much better figure then the previous year. After the season concluded, Montoya decided to sign a deal with the Montreal Canadiens, forcing the Panthers to look elsewhere for another goalie.
