Reimer to start vs. Buffalo.

Ben Scrivens struggled mightily against the Islanders and it now looks to be Reimer's job to lose. This will be Reimer's first back-to-back start this season as he hopes for some better play in front of him. He got peppered for 41 shots on Saturday in a losing effort, but played well. Leafs goalies aren't a fantasy option.

Reimer first goalie off the ice. Another sure indicator of his starting status for tonight.

This would be Reimer's first start of the night after he watched Ben Scrivens go 1-1 (1.53 GAA, .929 SV%). Unfortunately for Reimer his for test of the year comes against one of the top teams in the NHL. The Penguins have scored 9 goals in the first two games, so the Leafs and Reimer are sure to have their hands full tonight.

Reimer is hoping his injury will not extend into next season. GM Brian Burke refused to trade him for a first round pick before the trade deadline which is a good indication he will be with the team next year.
