Conflicting information!

Probably have the fill-in guy just in case Reimer leaves practice early if headache-like-symptoms come up again.
 
So the Leafs have an extra goalie at practice and Reimer is still participating? Would it really have been so bad to have him sit this one out considering everything? I mean, players take maintenance days all the time.

I'm glad they're being cautious.

Isn't it a contract year for Reimer?

Sure I can understand why Reimer would want to take part, but that decision really shouldn't be his to make.

That's great news hopefully it means he plays tomorrow.  Of all the injuries (and suspensions) his was the one that really started to hurt.  Sure could've used him when they were trying to tie that game last night.

jonasTSN1050: James Reimer says the plan is for him to be available in Chicago. Carlyle says the same is expected of James van Riemsdyk.
 
markhmasters: Reimer rode bike, worked out before practice & felt fine; held out last night due to protocol/precaution; said he wanted to return to game

I'm no doctor, but, getting through those things without symptoms is generally a pretty good sign that he doesn't have a concussion.

So why did Carlyle say that he had a headache? A headache is a symptom of a possible concussion on a blow to the head/neck area. It seems that we are getting conflicting reports on the status of Reimer and hopefully the situation is handled with his best interests in mind.

Reimer had a headache as a result of the collision on Thursday evening, but returned to the team's practice facility on Friday morning free of any such symptoms. In an effort to elevate his heart rate and determine if any issues arose Reimer rode the bike and worked out, free of any trouble.

"If my headache subsided then I wanted to practice," he said, one of three goaltenders at practice, University of Toronto goaltender Michael Nissi also on hand. "Woke up this morning, felt pretty good."

According to the netminder, new league protocol dictated that he depart Thursday's game.

"The trainer evaluates the situation and if he sees that it was a pretty extensive hit to the head then he says you've got to come out," Reimer explained. "I tried to have a discussion with him and say that I was alright. But obviously that wasn't the case in that moment so he made the call that I come out."

So we got shafted by TWO new rules that game!  First this concussion protocol rule took Reimer out and then hybrid icing confused Bernier into scoring on himself!!  It's a conspiracy I tells ya!!!
