OTTAWA — Once again creeping close to a playoff spot
http://www.miamidolphinsteamonline.com/minkah-fitzpatrick-jersey , the Florida Panthers simply cannot afford to lose another game to the Ottawa
Senators.
To that end, the Panthers are expected to go with backup James Reimer in goal when the teams meet Tuesday night at Canadian Tire Centre.
Reimer was on the bench watching Roberto Luongo post his 76th career shutout in Montreal against the Canadiens on Monday, just as he was when the Panthers
fumbled away two points in Florida when the Senators visited March 12 and walked
away with a 5-3 victory.

goals on 20 shots a week ago.
Luongo made 28 saves to tie Tony Esposito and Ed Belfour on the career shutout list in Montreal.
“The focus, for me, isn’t on reminiscing,” Luongo told reporters when asked about his place in history. “It’s about what’s ahead of us right now and winning
hockey games.”
Reimer
Authentic Taven Bryan Jersey , who had plenty of success at Canadian Tire Center when he played for the Toronto Maple Leafs, has a 12-5-2 lifetime against
the Senators, including a 2.45 goals-against average and a .929 save
percentage.
His last game was a 46-save shutout over the Boston Bruins on March 15.
The Panthers needed 40 shots to put two past Canadiens backup Antti Niemi on Monday.
“It was nice to see the guys stick with it and generating chances,” Panthers coach Bob Boughner told reporters. “It was a big win.”
Ottawa had a three-game winning streak stopped in a 2-1 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday.
The Senators believe they literally dodged a bullet when 20-goal scoring winger Ryan Dzingel survived taking a shot from linemate Mike Hoffman in
Saturday’s 2-1 loss to Columbus without suffering a concussion.
Dzingel will be held out of Tuesday’s game nonetheless.
“It’s Hoffman’s shot
Authentic Josh Rosen Jersey , it’s a bullet,” coach Guy Boucher told reporters on Monday. “With the protection he had there, he was lucky, because if
it was lower it probably would have been right in the middle of the neck and
that wouldn’t have been a good place.
“That’s hockey. It happens and you hope it doesn’t

The Senators recalled Filip Chlapik from their farm team in Belleville to take Dzingel’s roster spot, but veteran Zack Smith is slated to step into his
job on the team’s top line with Hoffman and Matt Duchene.
Craig Anderson is expected to tend goal for the Senators against the Panthers. In 25 career games versus Florida
