James Reimer sidelined for at least one week
James Reimer - G - Toronto Maple Leafs
Feb. 12, 2013 - 3:00 PM ET

James Reimer will be sidelined for at least a week after an MRI revealed a mild MCL sprain in his knee.

Reimer left Monday's game after getting hurt during the second period and given how bad the injury looked, an MCL sprain is about as good a diagnosis as owners and the Leafs could have hoped. Expect the Maple Leafs to recall a goalie from the AHL with Reimer out for at least three games. It wouldn't be surprising if he landed on IR to clear up a roster spot, either.
