Reimer allowed two goals on 41 shots in Monday's 6-2 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer was solid in his first start since returning from a lower-body injury. He didn't have to be excellent, as Timo Meier paced the Sharks with five goals in the contest. The 33-year-old Reimer is now 12-7-1 with a 2.65 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 21 games this season. He'll likely split the goaltending duties with Adin Hill going forward.

Reimer (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.

Reimer was given the hook before the third period after giving up four goals on 24 shots to the Red Wings on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
It was the second straight game in which Reimer was pulled, having given up a combined 10 goals on 41 shots (.756 save percentage). Considering the veteran's recent struggles, combined with Adin Hill being back in the fold, it's hard to imagine Hill won't be given a chance to earn the starting job, perhaps starting with Thursday's clash with Buffalo.

Reimer is expected to get the starting nod on the road versus Detroit on Tuesday, Corey Masisak of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer was shelled to the tune of six goals allowed on 17 shots in the first period of Sunday's matchup with the Penguins. With Adin Hill still working his way back to full fitness, the Sharks don't have much in the way of alternatives than to continue riding Reimer, though Hill could be in contention to start Thursday's clash with Buffalo.

Reimer stopped 11 of 17 shots before being replaced by Zach Sawchenko to begin the second period of Sunday's 8-5 loss to the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
It was a brutal first period for the Sharks in general, and Reimer in particular, continuing a run of poor play that has seen the 33-year-old netminder cough up 13 goals in his last 85 minutes of ice time. Reimer's hot start to the season is a distant memory, and his 2.56 GAA and .919 save percentage may not be done regressing yet.
