Bernier is probable to start for the Maple Leafs on Tuesday.

The Maple Leafs did not hold a morning skate today, but the belief is that Bernier will be between the pipes after sitting on Saturday.

Bernier kept the Leafs in Satruday's contest in Detroit, stopping 31 straight shots, before Henrik Zetterbeg blasted one by him with nine seconds left in Overtime. It was by far his best game of the season and he will look to carry it into tonight's meeting with the up-start Islanders.

Bernier was the first goalie off of the ice on Thursday; suggests he will start Friday.

Bernier made 11 saves on 12 shots after relieving James Reimer in Sunday's win over the Rangers. He took a seat on Tuesday vs. Colorado, but it looks like he will be back in goal on Friday vs. Detroit.

Bernier was the first goalie off the ice at Maple Leafs practice Friday.

With the Leafs taking on the Penguins on Saturday and the Rangers on Sunday, it looks like Bernier will get the start Saturday and James Reimer on Sunday. Bernier allowed four goals on 32 shots in the Leafs 4-3 loss to the Habs in the season opener. The Penguins lit the Ducks up on Thursday, so this is not a pretty matchup for Bernier.

Bernier will start the Maple Leafs' season opener on Wednesday.

Bernier had a tremendous preseason, winning all three games and posting a 1.17 GAA and .958 SV%. Bernier enjoyed a solid debut season with the Leafs, winnings 26 of 55 games with a 2.68 GAA and .923 SV%. The Maple Leafs are taking a more balanced approach into the 2014-15 season and it should provide Bernier with more stable play in front of him, which in turn, should improve Bernier's splits.

Bernier will have sports hernia surgery on Wednesday and is expected to need two to three weeks of rehabilitation.

The injury also cost Bernier five games in March. He said he would be healthy for training camp in September. "I felt pretty good," he said. "It was sore but my range, my stretching was fine. I think a lot of players play through that." Bernier had a 26-19-7 record this season with a 2.68 GAA and .923 SV%. In a very frustrating season for the Maple Leafs, Bernier was a bright spot and proved that he can be a number-1 goalie in the NHL.

Bernier was injured on Thursday night and will now miss the rest of the regular season and start of the playoffs (if the Leafs qualify). The last time Bernier was hurt, James Reimer struggled and the Leafs went on a big-time losing streak that may end up costing them the playoffs. Reimer will get a chance to redeem himself in Toronto's remaining four games.

Bernier left eight minutes into the third period. He stopped 25 of 27 shots and left with a 3-2 lead intact. James Reimer who replaced Bernier allowed the game-tying goal, but the Leafs went on to win the contest 4-3 in OT. Bernier will undergo an MRI on Friday, no word if it is related to the groin injury that cost him five games in March.
