Reimer allowed three goals on 33 shots in the Panthers’ win over the Blue Jackets on Saturday night. Roberto Luongo started last night in Calgary, so Reimer gets the nod tonight in Edmonton.

Reimer stopped 28 of 29 shots in the Panthers’ win over the Predators last night. Roberto Luongo was scheduled to start, but was hurt in warmups. With Luongo out, Reimer will start again tonight vs. the Bruins. Reimer has gone 2-2-1 with a 2.37 GAA and .927 SV% on home ice this season—but he lost his first start vs. the Bruins.

Reimer has had a below-average season, but he has been solid in December, going 1-1-1 with a 1.84 GAA and .935 SV%. With Roberto Luongo going last night, Reimer will start tonight vs. the Canadiens, who also played last night. The Habs come in having lost five of their last seven.

Bjorkstrand has been a healthy scratch for the last five games, so he will swap places with Dalton Prout, who had reached the end of his conditioning stint. Bjorkstrand has picked up 10 goals and four assists (14 points) in 20 AHL games this season.

Reimer stopped 30 of 31 shots in the Panthers’ win in Colorado last Friday. Reimer will start the first game of a back-to-back tonight vs. the Bruins.

Reimer stopped all five shots that he faced after replacing Roberto Luongo in the Panthers’ loss in Minnesota on Tuesday. Luongo started and lost again last night, so Reimer will get the call tonight in Colorado.
