Reimer will start in goal for Tuesday night's showdown in Philadelphia, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Reimer receives the start after Roberto Luongo went the distance in an overtime loss to the Bruins on Monday night. The 28-year-old backstop has allowed at least two goals in every start he's made this season and has to face a Flyers team Tuesday that scores 3.11 goals per game.

Reimer made 24 saves in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Carolina.

EDGE Analysis

The Panthers were up 2-0 early in the first, but Reimer and his mates couldn't hold the lead. Optimus Reims allowed three Carolina goals in a span of just 3:28 in the second period and the team just couldn't respond.

Reimer will patrol the goal for Sunday's road game in Carolina, Panthers' play-by-play radio announcer Doug Plagens reports.

EDGE Analysis

Reimer draws his eighth start of the year on the tail-end of a back-to-back for the Panthers. He recovered nicely by stopping 33 out of 35 shots in his last start after an embarrassing six goal game against the Maple Leafs on Nov. 17. He'll face the Panthers on Sunday, who are allowing 2.52 goals per game.

Reimer stopped 33 of 35 shots through 65 minutes and denied both Rangers he faced in the shootout for a 3-2 victory Sunday night.

EDGE Analysis

After he got slammed for six goals on Thursday, it might have been a while until Reimer saw another start if not for the Panthers immediately jumping into a weekend back-to-back set. This sharp effort should give the Panthers renewed confidence in their oft-used backup, and with another back-to-back coming up next weekend, it won't be long until Reimer takes the ice again.

Reimer will be the starting netminder for Sunday's road game against the Rangers, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's been a rough go of it for Reimer this season as he's only allowed less than three goals in one start this year. Things aren't likely to get better Sunday when the Panthers face the Rangers, who are scoring a league-leading 4.11 goals per game.

Reimer gave up six goals on 30 shots in Thursday's rout at the hands of the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old's first career start against the organization that employed him for nearly a decade certainly could have gone better, as it was by far his worst outing of his seven appearances this season. Reimer's supposed to see semi-reliable action as Roberto Luongo's backup this year, but his current .888 save percentage won't help him win too many starts away from the Panthers' veteran No. 1 netminder.

Reimer will be in goal for Thursday's meeting with Toronto, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Reimer will be making his sixth start of the year, which probably exceeds most preseason expectations given Roberto Luongo's propensity to start over 60 games per year. With a serviceable backup, the Panthers may turn to him more often in order to keep Luongo fresh for the postseason, which would elevate Reimer's fantasy value.

Reimer allowed three goals on 28 shots in Thursday's loss to the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Reimer was handed an early 2-0 lead, but failed to hold onto it against the defending Western Conference champs. His record now sits at an even 2-2-1 to go with a 2.73 GAA and .905 save percentage. Those passable numbers haven't altered Reimer's role as Roberto Luongo's backup.

Reimer will start his fifth game of the season Thursday when the Panthers play the Stars, Harvey Fialkov of the Sun Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Reimer has been solid in his last two starts, posting a .928 save percentage and a 2.41 GAA in two wins. He'll look to keep it going against a San Jose team that scores only 2.3 goals per game, good for 25th in the league.

Reimer stopped 34 of 37 Devils shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win.

EDGE Analysis

Reimer has won each of his last two starts while stopping north of 30 shots in each. He's still the clear backup to Roberto Luongo, but the 37-year-old starter will need to be spelled more often than some of his younger and more spry counterparts.
