James Reimer stopped all 16 shots he faced for his 32nd career shutout and Ridly Greig scored midway through the second period as the surging Ottawa Senators won 2-0 over the lowly host Vancouver Canucks on Monday night.

Reimer was playing in his eighth game since joining Ottawa in January and making his first start since Feb. 5 as backup to Linus Ullmark, was not severely tested throughout the evening. However, he did make a key pad save on Zeev Buium late to preserve the lead for the Senators, who have allowed two or fewer goals five times over the last seven contests.
