Reimer allowed six goals on 21 shots in a blowout 6-0 loss to the Blue Jackets on Monday. After the ugly loss, Reimer gets a good opportunity to get back on track with the Maple Leafs in Buffalo. The Sabres are 5-20-1… I'd say you start him.
Reimer was great on Saturday stopping 49 of 50 shots in a 2-1 shootout win over the Capitals. It was his second straight win and sixth of the season. He will take on the Blue Jackets at home tonight where he is 4-0-0 with a 1.96 GAA and .951 SV%.
Reimer allowed two goals on 35 shots in a 4-2 win over the Bruins on November 16. He gets the nod tonight at home against the Capitals. Reimer is 3-0-0 with a 2.27 GAA and .939 SV% at the ACC this season. He also won his only start against the Capitals last season.
Bernier took the loss last night to the Leafs in Buffalo so Reimer gets a shot back home. Until we see more than one game out of the Sabres, Reimer vs. Buffalo is a solid start.
Reimer turned aside 43 of 47 shots in a 4-0 loss to the Canucks last Saturday. The Maple Leafs continue to give up a ton of shots on a regular basis, Reimer has seen 128 shots in his last three starts (42.7 per game). He will look to redeem himself tonight against a Bruins team who eliminated him and the Leafs from the playoffs last year.

Reimer is 2-0 with a 0.50 GAA and .988 SV% with a shutout in his last two starts. The Maple Leafs have the best problem right now with both their netminders playing at a high level. Reimer has a 1.99 GAA and .949 SV% on the season, but has a tough mathchup vs. the red-hot Sedin's and the Canucks tonight.
This is from a reporter who was speaking with Jonathan Bernier and James Reimer, looks like we will have to wait until pre-game warmups. If it is Reimer, he is 2-0 with a 0.50 GAA and .988 SV% with a shutout in his last two starts. The Maple Leafs have the best problem right now with both their netminders playing at a high level. Reimer has a 1.99 GAA and .949 SV% on the season, but has a tough mathchup vs. the red-hot Sedin's and the Canucks tonight.
Reimer added another chapter to Toronto's goalie controversy on Saturday. He stopped 37 shots, leading the Maple Leafs to a 4-1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins. He has now won each of his last two starts while making 35-plus saves. He should make for a good start tonight against the Oilers 18th ranked offence.
Reimer hasn't started since being run into by a teammate on October 17th. In his last full start he allowed just one goal on 37 shots in a win vs. Minnesota. He will be in tough tonight against a great Penguins team.

Reimer left Thursday's game with an apparent head injury. He has a history of concussions, so this is a positive sign that his injury is not serious.
It appeared as if Reimer took a knee to the head, and with a history of concussions, that is not good. He was able to skate off under his own power, but went straight to the dressing room. Update to follow.
Reimer stopped 36 of 37 shots in a 4-1 win over the Wild on Tuesday. After Jonathan Bernier has a streak of four straight starts, Reimer showed that he can still be the number one guy in Toronto. He will get another chance tonight vs. Carolina.

This will be Reimer's first start since the home opener on October 5th, he was pulled after allowing four goals on 21 shots. Jonathan Bernier has clearly been the better of the two netminders so far, but a good start from Reimer tonight would go a long way.
Reimer looked good in his first start of the season allowing three goals on 37 shots. He is locked into a battle with Jonathan Bernier, who also played very well in his first start. Reimer dominated the Senators last season going 3-0-0 with 1.67 GAA, .960 SV% and one shutout.
Reimer went 19-8-5 with a 2.46 GAA and .924 SV% last season and played great in his first career playoff appearance. He was the better of the two goalies in the preseason, thus he starts opening night. He will split time with Jonathan Bernier this season, limiting his value, but behind a good Leafs team he should be able to stockpile a lot of wins.
We already know that the two are going to split each of the first two games, but for now Reimer is the likely starter for the season opener. Bernier is a native of Quebec, but Reimer has been the better of the two goalies in camp. We will await for the official word, which will come tomorrow. For now consider Reimer "likely".
