Reimer made 31 saves in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
The Sharks scored three straight goals in the third period to give Reimer a 4-2 lead, but he let it slip away in the dying minutes and got beaten by Martin Necas for both the tying and winning tallies, with the latter deflecting in off the netminder's shoulder on a shot he thought he'd stopped. Reimer has only one win in his last nine starts, going 1-5-3 with a 3.99 GAA and .876 save percentage, but Kaapo Kahkonen has struggled just as much during that stretch (3.99 GAA, .863 SvP in six starts) so there's unlikely to be a change in the pecking order for San Jose after the All-Star break.

Reimer will be in the road crease versus Carolina on Friday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer will make his third start in a row and his fifth in the last six games. He is 8-14-5 with a 3.25 GAA and an .896 save percentage this season. Reimer's GAA hasn't been this poor since the 2013-14 season and he's never had a save percentage under .900 in his 13-year NHL career until now. He'll have a tough matchup against the Hurricanes, who are averaging 3.21 goals per game and have the second best record in the NHL.

Reimer stopped 32 of 35 shots in the Sharks' 3-2 overtime loss to the Red Wings on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer was solid Tuesday, posting a .914 save percentage in the contest, but was unable to outduel Ville Husso for the victory. The former Maple Leaf has now dropped seven of his last eight starts, allowing no less than three goals in each of his last eight starts. Reimer should be expected to share the net with Kaapo Kahkonen moving forward.

Reimer stopped 18 of 22 shots in Sunday's 4-0 loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
It was a tough night for Reimer, who allowed four goals on just 22 shots in the shutout loss. The 34-year-old netminder has just one win in his last seven starts as he falls to 8-14-4 with a .895 save percentage. Reimer should hang on to the starting job in San Jose, with Kaapo Kahkonen also struggling, but he'll be hard to trust behind a 14-25-9 Sharks team.

Reimer stopped 33 of 36 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer gave up the first three goals of the game, but the Sharks turned things around and went into the third period tied at 3-3. They got another pair of goals in the final frame to earn the 34-year-old his first win since Dec. 22. For the season, Reimer has an 8-13-4 record with a 3.23 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 25 appearances. He hasn't been that good lately, but perhaps Wednesday's comeback win will spark something for the Sharks. They begin a road trip back east with a game Saturday in Columbus.

Reimer allowed three goals on 41 shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Devils.
