Reimer will be between the pipes Tuesday against Boston, Mark Masters of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer had a rough outing in his last start, giving up five goals on 27 shots faced in a loss at Florida. The 27-year-old netminder has compiled an 8-8-6 record on the year with a .932 save percentage and 2.10 GAA. He draws a Bruins team on the road Tuesday that has potted an average of 2.94 goals per game, third best in the league. Reimer has lost to Boston twice already this season, despite saving 35 of 36 shots in one of the contests.

James Remier stopped 22 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to Florida.
EDGE Analysis
It was yet another tough outing for Reimer, who was handed his third straight loss. Losing is something that he has become accustomed to -- the 27-year-old has only escaped with one win in last three games. Despite the poor record, Reimer's season hasn't been a complete horror story; he has the second-best save percentage in the league (.932) and has allowed two or fewer goals in seven of his last ten starts.

Reimer will be between the pipes Tuesday against Florida, Paul Hendrick of Leafs TV reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer has logged some decent numbers of late, despite losing five of his last six starts. The 27-year-old posted a 1.99 GAA over that span with a .938 save percentage. That is the type of performance the netminder would hope his offense would capitalize on, but the wins have failed to materialize.

Reimer made 27 saves in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
He was saved by the snow a couple of times -- the snow that lies on the ice and slows down the puck. Reimer had at least two pucks, including one in the shootout, that failed to cross the goal line because the snow on the ice stopped the puck prematurely. Optimus Reims has won just once in his last nine starts, but he still sits at the top of the NHL in save percentage. Yes, you read that right.

Reimer will field shots from the visiting Canadiens on Saturday evening, Paul Hendrick of Leafs TV reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer is coming off a start this past Thursday in which he set aside 40 of 41 shots but still lost in overtime. Unfortunately, the Buds have provided Optimus Reims with just six goals of support in the past five games. If you have Reimer on the fantasy roster, you're probably loving his tidy 1.98 GAA and .937 save percentage but he'll need more help from the skaters in order to advance his record of 8-7-5 in positive fashion.

Reimer carried a shutout into overtime Thursday, but was beaten by Jordan Staal on the 41st shot he faced.
EDGE Analysis
That's a harsh fate for Reimer, but he's no stranger to the loss column. That's been particularly true so far in January, as Reimer now sports a 1-3-1 record for the month. Of course, you can hardly pin this one on the 27-year-old Reimer, who turned in sparkling work in net, only to see Eddie Lack shut down the Toronto offense on the other end. Jonathan Bernier's lack of consistency and blowup-prone ways should ensure that Reimer continues receiving starting opportunities.

Reimer will start in goal Thursday against the Hurricanes, Dave McCarthy of TSN 1050 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer will receive starts in back-to-back games for the first time since Nov. 21 and 23, partially due to an extended stint on injured reserve. The 27-year-old netminder has been surprisingly much better on the road (1.63 GAA, .947 save percentage) than at home (2.41 GAA, .922 save percentage) this season, but will get a chance to improve on his home stats Thursday against a Hurricanes club averaging 2.22 goals per game in January.

Reimer stopped 31 of the 33 shots he faced in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer played well Tuesday night, and was able to snap a skid of three losses in his last three starts. He's now 8-7-4 on the season with a .934 save percentage and a 2.03 GAA, both of which rank in the top five in the NHL.

Reimer will receive the start in goal Tuesday against the Flyers, Dhiren Mahiban of The Canadian Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer struggled in his last start Friday against the Blackhawks, but it shouldn't come as a huge surprise considering the opponent was riding a long win streak. Following a night off Saturday against the Bruins, the Maple Leafs will turn back to him, and the 27-year-old netminder will look for better results in Tuesday's game against the Flyers.

Reimer allowed three goals on 28 shots in a 4-1 loss to Chicago on Friday. The fourth was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Reimer and the Leafs were victims on behalf of the Patrick Kane show in this one, as the league's leading scorer went off for a hat trick and an assist. Reimer has now lost seven games in a row and hasn't won since Nov. 20, which is somewhat surprising given his numbers this year (2.03 GAA, .934 save percentage through 18 starts). But then again, it is the Leafs we're talking about, who seem to make it tough on whoever is between their pipes as the NHL's 28th-place team with 39 points
