Reimer will take on the Rangers as Tuesday's home starter, the Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Roberto Luongo remains unavailable due to a lower-body injury, so it'll be the third consecutive start for Reimer. Interestingly, the Rangers have gone against the grain by converting on the power play at a far better clip on the road (21.1 percent; T-8th) than in New York (14.9; T-25th). However, Reimer has been tough to beat since the calendar flipped to 2017, as evidenced by a 2.22 GAA and .930 save percentage over 14 games. He'll be a decent flier in daily formats Tuesday, and also worth a speculative add in select season-long leagues due to uncertainty behind how long Luongo could be out.

Reimer allowed two goals on 34 shots in a 2-1 loss to the Stars on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The Panthers backup netminer has been stellar since Roberto Luongo left with an injury after the first period versus the Flyers on Thursday, but Florida was unable to win its last two games. That's despite Reimer stopping 69 of 72 shots in the last five periods and overtime. Reimer is now 12-9-5 with a 2.38 GAA and .923 save percentage this season.

Reimer will command the crease Saturday as the home starter versus the Stars, Steve Goldstein of Fox Sports Florida reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the NHL playoffs looming -- and your fantasy league's postseason likely to come even sooner -- Reimer will be worth keeping tabs on as he's in line to see a heavy workload down the stretch. Starting goalie Roberto Luongo has sustained a lower-body injury that will keep him out for approximately one week, and there's no telling how much more his 37-year-old body can take this late in the season. Reimer has only secured 12 wins in 28 starts, but his save percentage of .922 shows that he's been fairly good between the pipes. His next draw comes against a Dallas team ranked 22nd in the league in road scoring at 2.38 goals per game -- this makes him an attractive DFS target.

Reimer made 35 saves on 36 shots in relief of Roberto Luongo on Thursday, only to take a 2-1 shootout loss in Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Sure, he blew a 1-0 third-period lead and then allowed two shootout tallies, but it's hard to blame a guy who stopped 35 shots in 45 minutes of game action. Luongo's set to miss about a week to the injury he suffered in this one, so Reimer can be expected to start Saturday against Dallas and Tuesday against the Rangers at minimum.

Reimer made 31 saves on 33 shots in Sunday's win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer turned in an excellent performance, but his opposition Craig Anderson was just that much better. While he was burned for four goals in a loss to the Oilers on Wednesday, Reimer has been playing very well of late and could see a heavy workload down the stretch given the recent struggles of Roberto Luongo. Reimer could be worth a look right now, as he owns a 12-8-4 record with a solid .919 save percentage and has allowed two or fewer goals in six of his last eight outings.

Reimer will tend the twine Sunday against the Senators, George Richards of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer solid play in the crease recently has afforded him extra chances to man the net. As of now, he's receiving about two of every three starts and has won three of his last four in the crease. He surrendered four to Edmonton in his last go around, but just two combined in his previous three starts. He will look to get back on track Sunday against an Ottawa club with an even goal differential on the road this season.

Reimer saved 31 of 34 shots during Wednesday's loss to Edmonton.
EDGE Analysis
The Oilers were run out of the rink 4-1 by Tampa Bay on Tuesday, and Florida had won five consecutive games, so this had the makings of a tough spot for the Panthers and Reimer. The veteran goalie had won five of his past six starts with a .948 save percentage and 1.44 GAA, so he deserve a bit of a pass for Wednesday's underwhelming performance. However, it's likely Roberto Luongo draws the start against Calgary on Friday.

Reimer will guard the goal for Wednesday's matchup with the Oilers, George Richards of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer will make his second consecutive start and, judging by his recent form, he's earned it -- the 28-year-old keeper made 63 saves while allowing just two goals over his last two starts, both of which resulted in victories. He'll look to keep his hand hot Wednesday against an Edmonton team that is averaging just 2.13 goals per game in February.

Reimer allowed one goal on 27 shots during Monday's win over St. Louis.
EDGE Analysis
Remier has won five of his past six starts with a .948 save percentage and a 1.44 GAA. Additionally, with Florida boasting a healthy lineup and winners of five consecutive games, Reimer's personal fantasy stock is on the rise. He's been starting a little more frequently of late, too. Roberto Luongo is unlikely to surrender the lion's share of starts, but Reimer's been the better goalie recently.

Reimer will get the starting nod against the Blues on Monday, per Harvey Fialkov of the Sun Sentinel.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer has four wins in his last five appearances, including a shutout victory over the Sharks. It could be a lighter workload for the netminder as he squares off with a St. Louis squad that is averaging 27.7 shots per game, third fewest in the league.
