Updating an earlier report. Today was the first time that Bernier has taken part in a full practice since suffering a groin strain. It was not believed that he would be able to play in this weekend's back-to-back set, but now he is looking more questionable that doubtful. His status will be determined on Saturday morning.

Bernier has missed the last three games with a groin strain that he suffered on March 13th. Just because he was back at practice, groin injuries, especially for goalies, require a lot of patience.

Bernier will miss his third straight game tonight, but stepping on the ice this morning is a good sign. He remains day-to-day.

James Reimer came in and closed the door on all 31 shots that he faced to preserve the 3-2 victory for the Leafs. Bernier has been excellent this season, a serious injury would be awful for Toronto. If he does miss a lengthy period of time, that obviously boosts James Reimer's value.

To nobodies surprise, Bernier will get the call tonight vs. the Kings, it will be his first time back in Staples Center since being traded to the Leafs.

Despite surrendering five goals on 35 shots (2 SHG) in a 5-4 OT loss to the Tavares-less Islanders on Thursday, the Maple Leafs will turn to Bernier again on Saturday in a huge divisional clash with the Habs. Bernier did not look comfortable after the long layoff, which might be why head coach Randy Carlyle is going right back to him.
