The reeling Toronto Maple Leafs are hoping James Reimer can maintain his strong play against the Ottawa Senators in their final game before the All-Star break.

Losers of five in a row and 13 of their past 16 games, Maple Leafs head coach Peter Horachek will give Reimer the start in Ottawa on Wednesday, according to the club's official website.

Traditionally, this has been a recipe for success against their provincial rivals, as Reimer boasts a strong personal record against the Senators.

James Reimer - The Sens Killer: 10-2-1, 2.05 GAA, .942 SV%, 3 SO lifetime against Ottawa (8-1-0, 1.33 GAA, .965 SV%, 2 SO in Ottawa) — Leafs Stats Guy (@LeafsStatsGuy) January 21, 2015

However, Toronto is struggling mightily at the other end of the ice, with only two goals scored in the past five games. Unless that changes in Ottawa, Reimer will have to be almost perfect in order to help his team earn a much-needed victory.
