Reimer stopped all 46 shots that he faced in the Panthers shutout win over the Bruins last Thursday. It was a spectacular return to the crease for Reimer, who will look to extend his personal winning streak to three. The 30-year-old stopped all 38 shots that he faced in a 1-0 shutout win in his first start against the Senators in 2017-18.

Luongo allowed three goals on 35 shots in the Panthers 4-2 loss to the Oilers on Saturday. Luongo has lost his last two starts, allowing a combined eight goals on 60 shots (.867 SV%). Luongo will start the front-end of the back-to-back with James Reimer going tomorrow in Ottawa. Luongo stopped all 40 shots that he faced in a 5-0 shutout win over Montreal on March 8th.


Versteeg has been sidelined for 49 games after undergoing hip surgery in late-November. The veteran will likely be eased back into the lineup and returns with eight points (3G / 5A) in 22 games this season.

Smith stopped all 28 shots that he faced in the Flames 1-0 shutout win over the Oilers on Tuesday. Smith has had one good and one bad start since returning to the Flames crease and tonight he will make his third consecutive start. In his first start vs. the Sharks, Smith allowed three goals on 29 shots in a 3-2 loss.

Subban has been sidelined by a hand injury since February 2nd but it looks like he will at least backup Marc-Andre Fleury on Friday. There’s no word on who will start for the Golden Knights yet, so monitor Subban’s status during their morning skate.

Bishop stopped all 12 games that he faced before leaving the Stars loss to the Senators on March 5th. Bishop ended up missing the next five games but will return tonight in Ottawa. The 31-year-old has gone 6-9-2 with a 3.16 GAA and .890 SV% on the road so far this season.


Price has been out with a concussion since February 20th but it looks like he is nearing a return to the Habs’ crease. Price won’t play in Toronto but the plan is for him to practice with the team until he is ready to start.

Tkachuk is still dealing with a suspected concussion and will not play tonight vs. the Sharks. With Tkachuk out, Sam Bennett will continue to skate on the Flames’ second line.
