Reimer will patrol the crease for Monday's home tilt with the Blue Jackets, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer has struggled over the last two weeks since taking over the bulk of the duties with Petr Mrazek (thumb) out. He's registered a .880 save percentage and 3.29 GAA in six appearances, but thanks to a strong Hurricanes offense, he's gone 5-1-0 during that span. The Blue Jackets will be a fairly tough matchup for Reimer as they're averaging four goals per game over their last five contests.

Reimer stopped 34 of 37 shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis

He improved to 6-1-0 with a 3.11 GAA and an .889 save percentage in seven appearances this season. Reimer is likely to get another chance at the Stars on Saturday -- he's won all three of his appearances versus them this year.

Reimer will protect the road goal in Thursday's game versus the Stars, Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer has won five of his six appearances this season, but he's also allowed 10 goals in his last two outings. The 32-year-old has a 3.12 GAA and an .883 save percentage this year, and he could be heavily tested by a dynamic Stars offense.

Reimer allowed five goals on 22 shots in Sunday's 6-5 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer was far from his best, but the Hurricanes did enough scoring on their own to cover his mistakes. While he improved to 5-1-0, Reimer's GAA ballooned to 3.13 and his save percentage dipped to .883 in six appearances. The 32-year-old will need to perform better with Petr Mrazek (thumb) sidelined for at least a month.

Reimer will patrol the road crease in Sunday's game against the Blue Jackets, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer will make a fourth straight start with Petr Mrazek (finger) out long term. The 32-year-old has allowed at least three goals in three straight games, recording an .885 save percentage in that stretch. The Blue Jackets are a favorable matchup, however, as they rank 26th in the league with 2.50 goals per game.

Reimer surrendered five goals on 34 shots in a 6-4 loss to the Blackhawks on Thursday. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer's personal four-game winning streak came to a brutal ending, as the Hurricanes killed only two of five penalties Thursday. The 32-year-old netminder dropped to 4-1-0 with a 2.75 GAA and a .900 save percentage in five appearances. Petr Mrazek (thumb) is recovering from surgery, so Reimer's set to be the main man in the crease for the Hurricanes. He'll look to get back in the win column Sunday in Columbus.

Reimer will defend the blue paint during Thursday's road clash with Chicago, Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer has been on a roll recently, picking up four straight wins while posting a respectable 2.19 GAA and .915 save percentage. The 32-year-old netminder will attempt to secure his fifth victory of the campaign in a road matchup with a Blackhawks team he just beat in the shootout Tuesday after stopping 30 of 33 shots in regulation and overtime.

Reimer stopped 30 pucks in a 4-3 shootout win over Chicago on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer stayed perfect on the season, improving to 4-0-0 with a steady effort against the Blackhawks. Reimer made all but one of his 30 saves at even-strength during regulation and overtime, then stymied Alex DeBrincat, Patrick Kane and Dylan Strome during the shootout. The 32-year-old possesses a 2.19 GAA and .915 save percentage this season and will be the go-to netminder for Carolina in the absence of Petr Mrazek (upper body).
