Reimer appeared to be in-line to make a second straight start on Saturday vs. the Red Wings, but he tweaked his groin in practice this morning. Coach Carlyle hopes the goalies can split the back-to-back, but it will all depend on Reimer’s health. Monitor his status during Saturday’s morning skate.
Reimer allowed six goals on 25 shots in relief in the Maple Leafs 9-2 loss to the Predators on November 18th. Jonathan Bernier has started the last nine games, but Reimer will snap that streak tonight in Detroit. He allowed four goals on 35 shots in a 4-1 loss to the Red Wings the last time he faced them.
Miller has yet to record a point in three games with the Rangers but has 15 points (6G / 9A) in 18 games in Hartford. He will take Chris Kreider’s spot in the lineup today.
Zibanejad was not on the ice for pre game warmups and was confirmed as a healthy scratch, so he is not dealing with an injury. He has one goal and two assists in his last five games and six points (3G / 3A) on the year. Erik Condra is in the lineup for Zibanejad.
Bernier gets the tougher start vs. Pitt so Reimer has a great opportunity to nab a win vs. the Sabres.
Reimer stopped 30 of 33 shots in the Maple Leafs 3-2 loss to the Coyotes on Tuesday. With Jonathan Bernier starting last night, it will be Reimer on Sunday against a Senators team who he is 9-2-1 against in his career. Reimer should be a great Sunday start given his history of success vs. Ottawa.
Reimer stopped 30 of 33 shots in the Maple Leafs 3-2 loss to the Coyotes on Tuesday. With Jonathan Bernier starting vs. the Rangers on Saturday, it seems nearly certain that it will be Reimer on Sunday against a Senators team who he is 9-2-1 against in his career.
Reimer stopped 45 of 47 shots in the Maple Leafs 3-2 win over the Blackhawks on Saturday. It was his first win since October 14th and he now sits at 3-1-0 with a 2.47 GAA and .929 SV% this season. He draws a good matchup vs. a struggling Arizona squad.
Reimer stopped all eight shots that he faced after relieving Jonathan Bernier last Saturday. Tonight will be his first start since October 17 vs. the Red Wings. He has two wins with a 2.63 GAA and .914 SV% so far this year, but has a rough matchup vs. Chicago tonight.
Reimer allowed four goals on 35 shots in a 4-1 loss to the Red Wings last Thursday. Toronto did not have their best effort on Friday and it resulted in Reimer's worst outing of the year.

Miller was a healthy scratch for the last two Rangers' games after failing to record a point and producing a minus-4 rating in the first three games of the season.
Reimer stopped 22 of 24 shots for the 3-2 OT win over the Avalanche on Tuesday. Reimer has won back-to-back games while posting a 2.24 GAA and .920 SV% so he will start at home tonight in the first game of the home-and-home series with Detroit. He was 0-1-0 with a 4.63 GAA and .860 SV% in two outings vs. the Red Wings last year.
It was originally expected that Jonathan Bernier would go tonight in Toronto and then Reimer tomorrow in Detroit, but it appears it will be the other way around. Reimer has won back-to-back games while allowing four goals on 50 shots (.920 SV%), so it looks like Toronto will reward him with a third straight start. He was 0-1-0 with a 4.63 GAA and .860 SV% in two outings vs. Detroit last year.

Reimer was awarded the win despite leaving Sunday's game early after a collision with Dominic Moore. He stopped 24 of 26 shots in the Leafs 6-3 win over the Rangers. Head coach Randy Carlyle will stick with the hot-hand and give Reimer another start tonight in Colorado. The Avalanche are 1-2 and have struggled to score goals early on this year.
Reimer was removed from Sunday's game as a precaution following a collision with Dominic Moore and his presence at practice this morning proves it was simply a protocol and that he is fine.
Reimer's first start of the season ended early after suffering a head/neck injury in an incidental collision with Rangers' forward Dominic Moore. Reimer had a nice evening going, having stopped 24 of 26 shots, but given his history of neck injuries, the Maple Leafs elected to pull him from the game as a precaution. He left with a 6-2 lead intact.
Reimer had a rough year in 2013-14, he went 12-16-1 with a 3.29 GAA and .911 SV% and took a clear backseat to Jonathan Bernier. Tonight, he will look to get the Maple Leafs into the win column. Bernier has allowed nine goals on 64 shots (.877 SV%) so a good start from Reimer could earn him some more playing time early in the season.
