Reimer will start Wednesday in Edmonton.

Reimer allowed three goals on 33 shots in the Panthers’ win over the Blue Jackets on Saturday night. Roberto Luongo started last night in Calgary, so Reimer gets the nod tonight in Edmonton. Reimer has won three of his last four starts while posting a 2.25GAA and .933 SV%. The 28-year-old has gone 4-3-2 with a 2.55 GAA and .913 SV% in his first 10 road appearances in 2016-17.

Bishop leads the Lightning onto the ice for warmups.

Bishop allowed one goal on 32 shots in the Lightning’s win over the Kings yesterday afternoon. Bishop has stopped 55 of the 58 shots (.948 SV%) that he has faced in two wins since retuning to the Lightning crease. With Andrei Vasilevskiy struggling in his absence, it’s not surprising to see Bishop go again tonight, especially because of the extra rest due to yesterday’s afternoon game.

Bishop leads the Lightning onto the ice for warmups.

Bishop allowed two goals on 26 shots in his return to the Lightning’s crease last Thursday. The Lightning are happy to have their No.1 netminder back between the pipes, but he comes into Los Angeles with a 5-6-2 record, 2.53 GAA and .915 SV% on the road in 2016-17.

Ennis (groin) could return to the Sabres’ lineup on Monday.

Ennis has missed the last 30 games after undergoing groin surgery on November 10th. Ennis skated on the Sabres’ top line with Ryan O’Reilly and Kyle Okposo in Sunday’s practice and also played on the second power play unit as well. Ennis has one goal and one assist in 12 games earlier this season.

Bishop (lower-body) returns to the crease on Thursday.

Bishop has missed the last nine games with a lower-body injury, but will return to the crease tonight vs. the Sabres. The 30-year-old has gone 9-10-2 with a 2.79 GAA and .907 SV% on the season and will be looking to improve in the second half. He stopped 32 of 33 shots in a 4-1 win in his first start against the Sabres this season.

Reimer will start Saturday vs. the Bruins.

Reimer stopped 28 of 29 shots in the Panthers’ win over the Predators last night. Roberto Luongo was scheduled to start, but was hurt in warmups. With Luongo out, Reimer will start again tonight vs. the Bruins. Reimer has gone 2-2-1 with a 2.37 GAA and .927 SV% on home ice this season—but he lost his first start vs. the Bruins.

Reimer will start Thursday vs. the Canadiens.

Reimer allowed two goals on 32 shots in the Panthers’ loss to the Bruins last Thursday. Reimer has had a below-average season, but he has been solid in December, going 1-1-1 with a 1.84 GAA and .935 SV%. With Roberto Luongo going last night, Reimer will start tonight vs. the Canadiens, who also played last night. The Habs come in having lost five of their last seven.

Bishop will miss 3-4 weeks with a lower-body injury.

Bishop suffered the injury in the first period of the Lightnings’ win over the Red Wings on Tuesday. Bishop will be out until mid-January, which leaves Andrei Vasilevskiy in charge of the Tampa Bay crease and making him a must-add in fantasy circles. Kristers Gudlevskis has been recalled to serve as Vasilevskiy’s backup on Thursday.

Reimer will start Thursday vs. the Bruins.

Reimer stopped 30 of 31 shots in the Panthers’ win in Colorado last Friday. Reimer will start the first game of a back-to-back tonight vs. the Bruins. The 28-year old has gone 4-4-2 with a 2.77 GAA and .904 SV% in his first 12 appearances with the Panthers. He will take on a Bruins team that has lost six of their last eight games.

Bishop is day-to-day with a lower-body injury.

Bishop left Tuesday’s game with a lower-body injury and did not return. He was hurt when he extended his right leg to make a save on what appeared to be an otherwise harmless play. Andrei Vasilevskiy will replace Ben Bishop as the Lightning’s starter until Bishop is available.

Bishop will start Tuesday vs. the Red Wings.

Bishop allowed two goals on 32 shots in the Lightning’s shootout loss in Edmonton on Saturday. Bishop has lost three of his last four (1-1-2) while posting a 2.66 GAA and .904 SV%. It has been a mostly difficult season for Bishop, who will make his third start vs. the Red Wings—he has gone 2-0-0 with a 3.53 GAA and .883 SV% in the first two meetings.

No morning skate for the Lightning, but Bishop likely in net.

Bishop allowed three goals on 22 shots in the Lightning’s win in Calgary on Wednesday. Andrei Vasilevskiy got the nod last night in a loss to the Canucks, so expect Bishop to start tonight in Edmonton. The 30-year-old netminder has gone 2-2-1 with a 2.28 GAA and .915 SV% in five appearances in the month of December.

Reimer leads the Panthers onto the ice for warmups.

Reimer stopped all five shots that he faced after replacing Roberto Luongo in the Panthers’ loss in Minnesota on Tuesday. Luongo started and lost again last night, so Reimer will get the call tonight in Colorado. It has been a rough year for Reimer so far, but he draws a good matchup vs. an Avalanche team that has lost eight of their last 10 while averaging 2.40 goals per game.

Bishop is a must-start vs. the Canucks, who currently rank 28th in the NHL in scoring (2.19 GF/PG).
