When asked about Reimer on Tuesday, coach Bob Boughner said the netminder is "run down and not feeling 100 percent. So we want to make sure we're taking care of that," Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer is still expected to serve as Adin Hill's backup Tuesday against Calgary, but he's evidently not feeling well enough to start. He could, however, be back between the pipes as soon as Thursday versus Minnesota.

Prior to a previous report that indicated otherwise, Reimer won't start Friday against the Rangers, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Reimer getting the night off, Adin Hill will start between the pipes against the Rangers. Reimer's next potential opportunity to guard the goal will arrive Sunday against the Blue Jackets.

Reimer made 32 saves in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
After shutting out the Blackhawks in his last start, Reimer held New Jersey off the board for two periods while the Sharks built up a 4-0 lead. The Devils snapped his shutout streak with a pair of goals in the third, but Reimer was able to easily secure his second road win in three nights. He has pulled away from Adin Hill as the Sharks' top choice in net by virtue of an 8-4-1 record, 2.11 GAA and .934 save percentage.

Reimer will be in goal versus the Devils on the road Tuesday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer will be making his fifth straight start for the Sharks, having posted a 3-1-0 record and 2.26 GAA in his prior four outings. With a back-to-back on the horizon, Reimer figures to split Thursday and Friday's contest against the Islanders and Rangers, respectively, with Adin Hill but has otherwise earned the lion's share of the workload moving forward.

Reimer posted a 29-save shutout in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
This was Reimer's 25th career shutout and his first since the 2019-20 campaign. He bounced back well from arguably his worst start of the season versus the Maple Leafs on Friday to put in one of his best efforts Sunday. Reimer improved to 7-4-1 with a 2.12 GAA and a .933 save percentage. The fact that he started Sunday indicates he's earned the trust of head coach Bob Boughner, and he should be considered the Sharks' No. 1 goalie going forward. Next up is a road game versus the Devils on Tuesday.

Reimer will start between the pipes in Sunday's road clash with Chicago, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer struggled in his last start Friday against Toronto, surrendering four goals on just 17 shots before being replaced by Adin Hill in the second period of the eventual 4-1 loss. The 33-year-old netminder will attempt to bounce back and secure his seventh win of the season in a road matchup with a Blackhawks team that's averaging just 2.40 goals per game at home this year, 30th in the NHL.

Reimer surrendered four goals on 17 shots in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer just didn't have it Friday, taking his third loss in his last six games. The 33-year-old dropped to 6-4-1 with a 2.25 GAA and a .927 save percentage through 12 appearances this year. Adin Hill relieved Reimer in the contest and stopped all 16 shots he faced, so it seems likely Hill will tend the twine Sunday versus the Blackhawks as the Sharks begin a road trip.

Reimer will start against visiting Toronto on Friday, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
A winner in three of his last four starts, Reimer will face his former team in the midst of one of the best seasons of his career. His .936 save percentage and 1.98 GAA through 11 games are among the league's best, but the Manitoba native is sure to have his work cut out for him Friday -- the Leafs are 10-2-0 in November.

Reimer allowed three goals on 29 shots in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
The Senators put up a good fight, but Reimer and the Sharks were able to collect the win anyway. The 33-year-old netminder improved to 6-3-1 with a 2.04 GAA and a .936 save percentage in 11 contests this season. He's won three of his last four starts and appears to have a slight edge over Adin Hill for playing time. A tougher test awaits Friday if Reimer gets the start versus the Maple Leafs.
