Reimer made 35 saves in a 5-1 loss to the Jets on Saturday night. The loss wasn't his -- he kept his mates in the game when they really shouldn't have been. The Leafs were at the end of a seven-game road trip in which they won just twice, so fatigue was obviously a factor.

Reimer will start Saturday against the Jets, Jonas Siegel of TSN Radio 1050 reports. As expected, Reimer will get the call Saturday after Jonathan Bernier took the loss to Minnesota in the front half of a back-to-back set.

Reimer is likely to make the start in goal Saturday versus the Jets, Jonas Siegel of TSN Radio 1050 reports. With Jonathan Bernier confirmed as the starter for Friday's game against the Wild, expect coach Randy Carlyle to follow his usual pattern of leaning on his backup goalie for the other game of the back-to-back set. Reimer has performed rather inconsistently this season, owning a 6-6-0 record and poor ratios (3.39 GAA, .905 save percentage) over his 15 appearances.

Reimer made 38 saves against Tampa Bay on Monday night, but like Sunday, he surrendered a two-goal lead and Toronto lost 3-2. Like Sunday, he also made some nifty saves, but the odds were stacked against him with such a powerful lineup bearing down on him. There is no word on Jonathan Bernier's return from illness, so expect Reimer to protect the twine tent until Bernier gets back.

Reimer will be between the pipes for Monday's game against the Lightning, TSN's Jonas Siegel reports. Reimer will start for the second consecutive game as regular goaltender Jonathan Bernier sits out again with an illness. He will face a stiff test Monday from a Tampa Bay squad that currently sits second in the NHL with 3.19 goals per game.

Reimer made 28 saves in a 6-4 loss to Florida on Sunday night. He allowed five goals, three of which came in the third period. He and the Leafs entered the third with a 4-2 lead, but they couldn't withstand the Panthers' barrage. The loss aside, Reimer will likely be back between the pipes Monday against the Lightning as Jonathan Bernier is down with some kind of illness. We're not sure we like that match up for Optimus Reims. He's a battler, but the Bolts have more firepower than the kitties.

Reimer will start in net against the Panthers on Sunday, Steve Godstein of Fox Sports Florida reports. Reimer will receive the start with Jonathan Bernier dealing with an illness. He will have Christopher Gibson as his backup Sunday, but he shouldn't be needed barring an injury. If Bernier's illness causes him to miss an extended time, Reimer should receive the lion's share of the starts in net in his absence.

Reimer gave up four goals on 34 shots in Sunday's loss to the Blackhawks. It wasn't the best outing for Reimer, who got no offensive support in the 4-0 loss. The 26-year-old is now 6-4-0 on the season with a .907 save percentage and 3.26 GAA. While he has only made 13 appearance this season, Reimer is still a decent fantasy option whenever starter Jonathan Bernier gets the night off.

Reimer will start in net against Chicago on Sunday, Jason Siegel of TSN.ca reports. Reimer has just 12 appearances on the season as he'll enter Sunday's contest allowing 3.19 goals per game. He'll be looking for his seventh win of the season and to improve on the .909 save percentage that he currently boasts.

Reimer made 33 saves through overtime and then turned away all shooters in the shootout to help lead the Leafs to a 4-3 win over the Kings on Sunday night. It was Reimer's second start in 11 games ... and his second win. Jonathan Bernier remains the clear starter, but Optimus Reims is delivering the way a quality backup should. Match-up play is your best path forward with him.
