Sabres' James Reimer: Sharp in win over former team
Reimer stopped 31 of 33 shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.
Reimer has had two stints with the Sharks, mostly recently in 2022-23. The 36-year-old made his Buffalo debut after signing with the Sabres in the offseason. He was lost on waivers to the Ducks before ultimately being reclaimed. The netminder is 1-2-0 with 11 goals allowed on 99 shots over three appearances this season. He should improve behind a Sabres team that has established itself as a playoff contender through the first quarter of 2024-25. Reimer's playing time is likely to be limited behind Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen. Still, Reimer should have an opportunity to start next weekend with the Sabres playing at home versus the Canucks on Friday before facing the Islanders on the road Saturday.

Sabres' James Reimer: Starting Saturday
Reimer will guard the road goal versus San Jose on Saturday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.
Reimer allowed nine goals on 66 shots in two outings with Anaheim this season. After being claimed off waivers from the Ducks on Nov. 13, he will get the second half of Buffalo's back-to-back following Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen's 22-save effort in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over Anaheim. San Jose ranks 27th in the league with 2.45 goals per game in 2024-25.

Sabres' James Reimer: Claimed off waivers
Reimer was claimed off waivers by Buffalo on Wednesday from Anaheim, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Reimer has a record of 0-2-0 with a 4.50 GAA and an .864 save percentage over two appearances with the Ducks in 2024-25. While those numbers are subpar, he was serviceable last season, posting an 11-8-2 record, 3.11 GAA and .904 save percentage across 25 outings with Detroit. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen is day-to-day with an undisclosed injury, so for now Reimer might split the goaltending duties with Devon Levi. When Luukkonen is healthy, Reimer could shift to being his understudy while Levi, who has a 4.10 GAA and an .866 save percentage in five outings this season, might head to the AHL to work on his game. Unlike Reimer, Levi doesn't have to pass through waivers to be sent to the minors.

Ducks' James Reimer: Designated for waivers
Reimer was waived by the Ducks on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Reimer was always going to be the odd man out in Anaheim once John Gibson returned from his appendectomy. With the Avalanche losing Kaapo Kahkonen on waivers to Winnipeg on Tuesday, Colorado may be in the market for a veteran like Reimer, or the Sabres might try to bring Reimer back after losing him on waivers to Anaheim before the season. If he clears waivers, Reimer figures to join up with AHL San Diego, potentially playing in the minors for the first time since 2010-11 when he was with the Toronto Marlies.

Ducks' James Reimer: Yields six goals in loss
Reimer stopped 28 of 34 shots in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Devils.
Reimer made his second start of the year and didn't do well. He's allowed nine goals on 66 shots so far while serving as backup to Lukas Dostal. John Gibson (abdomen) is traveling with the Ducks on their current road trip, which has two more stops with visits to the Islanders on Tuesday and the Penguins on Thursday. That means Reimer has likely run out of time to make a positive impression -- he could be waived once Gibson is ready to return.

Ducks' James Reimer: In net Sunday
Reimer will be between the pipes for Sunday's road game versus New Jersey, according to Mike Morreale of NHL.com.
Reimer will make his second appearance of the season as Anaheim is on the second half of a back-to-back. The 36-year-old made 29 saves on 32 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights on Oct. 13. The Devils are averaging 3.45 goals per game.

Ducks' James Reimer: Loses Anaheim debut
Reimer stopped 29 of 32 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights on Sunday.
Reimer kept things even over the first two periods, but the Golden Knights pulled away with a pair of goals in the third, one of which came on a power play. Reimer was claimed off waivers from Buffalo before Opening Night as the Ducks wanted a veteran backup for Lukas Dostal while John Gibson (abdomen) is on the mend. Dostal put up a shutout in his first start of the year, so Reimer's playing time is likely to be sparse over the remainder of the month.

Ducks' James Reimer: Making first start of season
Reimer will be in net for Sunday's road game against the Golden Knights, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Reimer will make his first start for Anaheim after being claimed off waivers Monday. With John Gibson (abdomen) on injured reserve, the Ducks needed to shore up their goaltending depth behind Lukas Dostal. Reimer posted an 11-8-2 record, .904 save percentage and 3.11 GAA in 25 regular-season appearances with Detroit in 2023-24.

Ducks' James Reimer: Claimed by Anaheim
Reimer was claimed off waivers by the Ducks on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Reimer was waived by Buffalo on Sunday, but he'll land with Anaheim ahead of the regular season. The 36-year-old made 25 regular-season appearances for Detroit last year, logging an 11-8-2 record, 3.11 GAA and .904 save percentage. If he sticks with the Ducks this year, he'll likely serve as a backup netminder behind Lukas Dostal.

Sabres' James Reimer: Hits waivers
Reimer was placed on waivers Sunday, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
Reimer posted a record of 11-8-2 with a 3.11 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 25 appearances with Detroit in the 2023-24 regular season. He signed a one-year, $1 million contract with Buffalo in the summer. Reimer will head to AHL Rochester if he clears waivers.

Sabres' James Reimer: Signs one-year deal
Reimer inked a one-year, $1 million contract with Buffalo on Tuesday.
The 36-year-old Reimer will join an extremely young goalie group that includes Devon Levi (22), Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (25) and recently signed Felix Sandstrom (27). Barring some standout performances in training camp, Reimer figures to enter the year as the No. 2 option behind Luukkonen, though he could be shipped down to the minors to serve as an emergency depth option as well.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Gets shootout win Tuesday
Reimer stopped 29 shots in regulation and overtime and all three shootout attempts he faced in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Canadiens.
Detroit needed to win and get some help to sneak into the playoffs, and while Reimer got the job done, Washington also won in Philadelphia to lock up the No. 8 seed in the Eastern Conference. Reimer finishes the regular season having gone 11-8-2 in 25 outings with a 3.11 GAA and .904 save percentage, and the 36-year-old will likely head into the offseason in search of a backup role with another club as a free agent.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Starting in Montreal
Reimer will defend the road net Tuesday against the Canadiens, according to Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site.
Reimer has won four of his last five outings, including a 32-save effort in Saturday's 5-4 overtime victory over Toronto. He has a 10-8-2 record this season with a 3.07 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 24 appearances. Montreal is tied for 26th in the league this campaign with 2.81 goals per contest.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Puts on show against Leafs
Reimer made 32 saves in a 5-4 overtime win over Toronto on Saturday.
It was his 500th NHL game and first start since March 28. Reimer surrendered Auston Matthews' 69th goal, which tied Mario Lemieux's mark from 1995-96, but the veteran netminder put on a show in the third with several huge saves to ensure overtime. The Wings stayed in contention for a wild-card spot with the win, but Detroit has lost seven of its last 10 games. The Wings play the Habs back-to-back starting Monday night, so Optimus Reims will likely be in the blue paint for one of those crucial games.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Tending twine Saturday
Reimer will patrol the road crease in Toronto on Saturday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Reimer has seen limited action this season, going 9-8-2 with a 3.03 GAA and a .906 save percentage in 23 appearances. He won his only start against the Maple Leafs this season, turning aside 28 shots in a 4-2 victory in January. Reimer played his first six seasons with Toronto, and Saturday will mark his 500th career game in the NHL.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Flood gates open in loss
Reimer made 29 saves in a 4-0 loss to the Hurricanes on Thursday.
Reimer stopped 15 pucks in the first period, and the first 19 shots he faced. But when the gates opened, he and the Wings were flooded. Reimer allowed four goals in a 15:41 span in the second period. The Wings are in free fall and have lost 11 of their last 14 games. However, Reimer was in net for the three wins in that span and is 3-1-0 with a .915 save percentage in his last four starts. However, be wary of activating him based on this short window of decent performance -- the Wings have several tough matchups coming up, and the team is currently too much of a risk overall.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Slated starter for Thursday
Reimer is expected to start on the road against Carolina on Thursday, according to Max Bultman of The Athletic.
Reimer has won his last three starts while saving 90 of 97 shots (.928 save percentage). He's 9-7-2 with a 2.98 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 22 outings this campaign. The Hurricanes, who rank ninth offensively with 3.37 goals per game, figure to be a challenging adversary for Reimer.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Cruises to third straight win
Reimer turned aside 33 shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
Detroit never trailed in the game, getting on the board first after a scoreless first period before quickly building a 3-1 lead ahead of the second intermission. Reimer has won three straight starts, and while his 3.18 GAA and .907 save percentage through six outings in March don't stand out, he's moved into the No. 1 role in the crease for the Red Wings due to Alex Lyon's woeful play of late.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Slated starter for Thursday
Reimer is set to face the Islanders at home Thursday, per Carley Johnston of the Red Wings' official site.
Reimer has allowed at least three goals in three of his past four appearances. He's 8-7-2 with a 2.98 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 21 outings in 2023-24. The Islanders are 14-15-5 on the road, so this is a somewhat favorable matchup for Reimer.

Red Wings' James Reimer: Hangs on for OT win
Reimer made 32 saves in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.
Columbus jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period, but aside from a Kirill Marchenko power-play tally in the third, Reimer was stout the rest of the way and gave his team a chance to mount a comeback. The 36-year-old netminder has been Detroit's best option in the crease since the All-Star break, going 4-1-0 over seven outings with a 2.48 GAA and .929 save percentage, and he appears to have worked into a timeshare with Alex Lyon.
