TORONTO - Goaltender James Reimer is back with the Toronto Maple Leafs after signing with the NHL club on a professional tryout.

Reimer's tryout comes after Joseph Woll took an indefinite leave of absence from the Leafs earlier this week for personal reasons.

The 37-year-old Reimer, from Morweena, Man., is entering his 16th NHL season after posting a 10-10-2 record over 22 games with Buffalo and Anaheim last season.

Reimer broke into the league with the Maple Leafs in 2010-11, when he was promoted from the American Hockey League's Toronto Marlies to address injuries and inconsistent play from the tandem of Jean-Sébastien Giguère and Jonas Gustavsson.

He went on to take the starting job and posted a 20-10-5 record with a 2.60 goals-against average and .921 save percentage over 37 appear
