Reimer starts Wednesday in San Jose.

Reimer allowed three goals on 35 shots in the Hurricanes loss to Columbus lat Saturday. It was Reimer’s first loss of the season and moved him to 2-1-0 with a 2.65 GAA and .933 SV% through three games. The Sharks have struggled in their first six games, but winning a road game in San Jose on the tail-end of a back-to-back is a difficult task for Reimer.

Bishop will start Wednesday in Columbus.

Bishop allowed four goals on 22 shots in the Stars loss in Buffalo on Monday. The Stars have stumbled out of the gate, with Bishop going 1-3-1 with a 2.78 GAA and .895 SV% in five games. As rough of a start as it has been, Bishop should be one of the best options on tonight’s six-game slate. The Blue Jackets are 2-3-0 and are averaging just 2.20 goals per game (t-26th).

Bishop will start Monday afternoon in Buffalo.

Bishop surrendered two goals on 29 shots in the Stars shootout loss to the Flames last Thursday. Anton Khudobin started Saturday, so Bishop comes into this afternoon’s game well-rested. The 32-year-old has gone 1-2-1 with a 2.48 GAA and .910 SV% in four games this season. Buffalo has played well early-on, going 4-0-1 while averaging 4.00 goals per game (t-4th).

Clifton will be a healthy scratch on Monday.

Clifton has no points while playing 15:30 ATOI in the first five games of the season and will be replaced by Steve Kampfer, who is making his season debut. “Cliffy’s played well, but a message that nothing is guaranteed,” is what head coach Bruce Cassidy had to say about scratching the rookie defenseman.

Reimer will start Saturday vs. the Blue Jackets.

Reimer stopped 47 of the 50 shots he faced in the Hurricanes win in Florida on Tuesday. With Petr Mrazek starting on Friday, Reimer gets the tail-end of the back-to-back on Saturday. He has impressed so far, going 2-0-0 with a .940 SV% in his first two starts in Carolina. Don’t hesitate to add him and start him vs. the Blue Jackets if you need help in the goalie categories.

Bishop will start Thursday vs. the Flames.

Bishop allowed three goals on 32 shots in the Stars overtime win in Washington on Tuesday. The victory ended a three-game slide to start the season for Dallas and pushed Bishop to 1-2-0 with a. 2.71 GAA and .902 SV% on the year. Bishop is 17-8-2 on home-ice dating back to the start of last season and did not give up a goal on 41 shots in two games vs. the Flames in 2019-20.

Reimer will start Tuesday in Florida.

Reimer stopped 32 of 34 shots in the Panthers win in Washington on Saturday. The Hurricanes' goaltending rotation will continue with Reimer facing the team that traded him this offseason. Florida has opened the season at 1-1-0 while averaging 32.5 shots and 3.00 goals per game.

Bishop will start Tuesday in Washington.

Bishop surrendered three gaols on 30 shots in the Stars loss in St. Louis on Saturday. Anton Khudobin went Sunday in Detroit, so the Stars will go back in Bishop as they look to avoid an 0-4 start in Washington. Bishop was 1-0 vs. the Capitals and went 10-8-0 with a 2.09 GAA and .931 SV% on the road last season.

The Penguins have recalled Sam Lafferty from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL) on an emergency basis.

Lafferty was a fourth-round pick of the Penguins back in 2014 and he is expected to make his NHL debut on Tuesday because Evgeni Malkin and Nick Bjugstad are out with lower-body injuries. Lafferty was held pointless in his first AHL game of this season but had 49 points (13G / 46A) in 70 games last year.

Bishop leads the Stars onto the ice for warmups.

Bishop gave up two goals on 20 shots in the Stars 2-1 loss to the Bruins on Thursday. Both goals came in the first period but Bishop settled in gave the Stars a chance to comeback. His season starts against the two teams that were in the Stanley Cup Finals in the spring. He was 2-1-0 with a 1.69 GAA and .941 SV% in three starts vs. the Blues last year.

Reimer will make his Hurricanes debut in Washington.

After three seasons with the Panthers, Reimer was traded to the Hurricanes this summer and will likely split time with Petr Mrazek. Reimer was 13-12-15 with a 3.09 GAA and .900 SV% last year, so it’s difficult to trust him on most nights. A road meeting with Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals is a good spot to leave Reimer on the bench or free agency.
