Reimer made 41 saves in a 2-0 win over the Kings on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
It was a great outing, but there is some question about his health following the win. Reimer stopped a shot from Drew Doughty with 29 seconds left and was quite slow to get up. He was able to finish the game, though. Hopefully this is just a minor glitch and not a full-blown injury.

Reimer allowed four goals on 21 shots in a 5-4 overtime victory over the Flyers on Tuesday.

Just prior to this slump, Reimer was superb, going 6-1-0 with a .950 save percentage over a seven-game span. Overall, he is 9-6-0 with a 2.77 GAA and .910 save percentage in 17 games this season.

Reimer will guard the home goal Tuesday versus the Flyers, Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer will take the cage for the first time since the turn of the calendar to 2020 and will look to recover from a pair of bumpy outings in his last two appearances. The veteran's overall numbers remain solid, with Reimer owning a 2.69 GAA and a .914 save percentage. However, he's curiously made just two starts on home ice this season and allowed a combined seven goals to the Devils and Blue Jackets. Reimer will receive an opportunity to buck that bad start Tuesday versus a Philadelphia squad posting just 2.48 goals per game on the road.

Reimer was the first goalie off the ice Friday morning, Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site reports, indicating he'll guard the crease on the road versus the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer was yanked from his previous start after giving up three goals on just seven shots (.571 save percentage) but will get the opportunity to bounce back right away. With the Manitoba native taking the first game of the Canes' back-to-back, Petr Mrazek figures to get the nod versus Washington at home Saturday.

Reimer allowed three goals on seven shots before being replaced by Petr Mrazek early in the first period of Monday's 8-6 loss to the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer's start against his former club lasted only 5:10 before he got the hook and left the 'Canes in a 3-0 hole, but they took the lead in the second period to make Mrazek the goalie of record. Despite the rough performance, Reimer still has a 2.51 GAA and .921 save percentage through 15 outings in the year.

Reimer is expected to tend the twine for Monday's road clash with Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer is currently riding a three-game winning streak during which he recorded a 1.34 GAA and one shutout. The Manitoba native's strong run of form has earned him a split share of the netminding duties of late, as he will make his fourth appearance in the Canes' previous seven outings. Barring a dramatic slip in performance, Reimer should continue to see plenty of starts alongside Petr Mrazek.

Reimer allowed one goal on 28 shots in a 3-1 win over the Avalanche on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The game was scoreless after two periods before Nathan MacKinnon put the Avalanche on the board early in the third. Reimer wouldn't give up another, and the Hurricanes surged late to get the win. Reimer improved to 8-5-0 with a 2.30 GAA and a .927 save percentage in 14 games. He's won six of his last seven starts, with two shutouts and just 11 goals allowed in that span. Petr Mrazek still gets most of the starts for the Hurricanes, but Reimer is doing his part to earn more playing time, especially after this impressive takedown of the league's top offense.

Reimer will get the start for Thursday's road clash against Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer has been on a hot streak in his past five starts, going 4-1-0 along with a 1.41 GAA and .956 save percentage in that span. The 31-year-old will be up against a tough matchup Thursday, taking on a Colorado offense that leads the league in goals per game this campaign (3.62). To make matters worse for Reimer and the Hurricanes, the Avalanche have been the hottest team in the league lately, going 8-1-1 in their last 10 games.
