Sebastian Breza started in his place, with veteran ‘keeper Clement Diop available off the bench.
Breza had six saves in his first-ever MLS start but Montreal dropped a 2-1 decision to United.
Pantemis, a 24-year-old from Kirkland, Que., has played nine games for Montreal this season, giving up 13 goals, making 23 saves and collecting two clean sheets.
CF Montreal (6-7-5) remains a single point below the Eastern Conference playoff bar.
