MacArthur is day-to-day with an illness, which means that J.G Pageau will likely be back in the lineup vs. the Oilers this afternoon.

Reimer made 31 saves on 32 shots in the Maple Leafs 5-1 win over the Oilers on Saturday night. It was Reimer’s first win since December 14th and just the Leafs second since January 1st. Reimer comes into play on Tuesday with a 7-11-0 record, 3.11 GAA and .907 SV% on the season. Coming off of a strong game, the Leafs will go back to him tonight vs. New York.

Reimer allowed four goals on 17 shots in the Leafs loss to the Devils last night. With Jonathan Bernier out with an illness so it will be Reimer again tonight instead of Antoine Bibeau making his NHL in the middle of an 11 game losing streak.

Reimer allowed four goals on 17 shots in the Leafs loss to the Devils last night. With Jonathan Bernier out with an illness, you have to think that it will be Reimer again tonight instead of Antoine Bibeau making his NHL in the middle of an 11 game losing streak. Montior Reimer’s status leading up to puck-drop.

Reimer stopped all four shots that he faced after briefly replacing Jonathan Bernier in Tuesday’s loss to the Predators. Reimer is 6-10-0 with a 3.17 GAA and .908 SV% on the year, but hasn’t won a game since December 14th. He has a nice matchup against the low-scoring Devils, but the Leafs are ice cold right now, making him a risky start.

Eller took part in the Canadiens morning skate and it sounds like he will play tonight, but that decision likely won’t be made until pre game warmups.

Eller suffered a lower-body injury on Sunday, but he is on the ice for the morning skate, which is a good sign that he will be available tonight vs. the Sabres. Monitor his status after the game day skate.

Eller reportedly seemed OK after the game, but did not want to risk returning not at 100%. Monitor his status prior to Tuesday’s game vs. the Sabres.

Reimer allowed four goals on 26 shots in the Maple Leafs loss in Ottawa on January 21st. Reimer hasn’t won a game since December 14th and has gone 0-3-0 with a 3.07 GAA and .912 SV% in January. The way the Leafs are going as of late, Reimer makes for a risky start tonight in Philly.

Perron left Monday’s practice early with cold-like symptoms, but he was back on the ice for the Penguins game day skate this morning. He will be a game-time decision along with Kris Letang and Patric Hornqvist.

Reimer stopped all 18 shots that he faced after replacing Jonathan Bernier in the Leafs’ loss to the Hurricanes on Monday. Tonight he will look to register his first win since December 14th.

He is 6-7-0 with a 3.51 GAA and .902 SV% on the year, but the Leafs are allowing fewer shots under the new regime, so could we see an improved Reimer?

Giroux was listed as a game-time decision, but will play tonight vs. Ottawa. He will centre the top-line with Brayden Schenn and Jakub Voracek on his wings. Giroux has 13 goals and 30 assists (43 points) in 38 games this season.

Giroux had a brief chat with trainers at the bench after a few laps and is now taking line rushes in warmups, that is a good sign that he will be back in tonight. With Giroux coming back, Zac Rinaldo will go from first line winger to healthy scratch.

Giroux missed the morning skate, but is listed as a game-time decision. He was listed as GTD on Saturday as well and did not come out for warmups, that is not likely to be the case tonight. Giroux did jump on the ice late in the skate just to shoot some pucks, so monitor his status during pre-game warmups.

Giroux, who missed Saturday’s game with a leg laceration, is not on the ice this morning after missing Monday’s practice as well. This does not bode well for Giroux playing tonight, but expect an update after the skate.

Giroux missed practice on Monday, but could still play on Tuesday vs. the Senators. Giroux said there is some discomfort when he tries to wear his skate because the cut is on his ankle. Monitor his status during Tuesday’s morning skate.

Giroux was listed as a game-time decision and the Flyers said that he would take warmups, but he is not on the ice for warmups and will not play vs. the Devils. With Giroux and Scott Laughton out, the Flyers will go with seven defensemen.
