Panthers' James Reimer: Scratched from Tuesday start

Reimer will sit out Tuesday's tilt against Ottawa to be with his wife as they await the birth of their child, Steve Goldstein of Fox Sports Florida reports.

Analysis:

Reimer was originally named the starting goaltender for this game after Monday's practice, but he won't be in uniform after his wife went into labor early Tuesday morning. Veteran Roberto Luongo will start in Reimer's place.
