Scrivens Close to NHL Start

Last year’s standout senior goalie Ben Scrivens backed up Toronto starter James Reimer on Saturday night against Ottawa. Scrivens’ quick ascent up the Toronto depth chart- helped along the way by an injury to J-S Giguere and poor play by Jonas Gustavsson- makes him the second Big Red alumnus to get a call up this year. Given the tremendous odds he has already overcome to get to the Toronto bench, don’t count him out in terms of making an NHL start this season.

Correction: Scrivens would be the third Big Red alumnus called up this year- Brendon Nash made his debut with Montreal last week. Thanks to MA for the catch.
