James Reimer the likely starter for Florida in duel with Columbus
Florida Panthers goalie James Reimer was the first goalie off the ice ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Columbus Blue Jackets.
With Roberto Luongo still unavailable, Reimer should get the call again versus a Blue Jackets team that owns the fourth-best offense in the NHL (3.19 goals per game). He's 13-12-5 this season with a 2.60 goals-against average and 2.18 save percentage.
Reimer is numberFire's 16th-ranked fantasy goalie on Thursday's 12-game slate. Our models project him for 27.6 saves, 2.5 goals against and only a 32.0 percent chance of scoring a win.
