Nylander was a surprise scratch last night and did not travel to Montreal for Saturday's game. With Nylander out on Friday, Andreas Johnsson moved up to the first line and Zach Hyman saw time on the top power-play unit.
Campbell allowed four goals on 30 shots in the overtime win in his Maple Leafs debut last night. It was good enough and that's all he'll need on most nights with his new team thanks to their high octane offence. He'll start on back-to-back nights and gets set to face a Montreal team that has won six of their last eight while scoring 3.63 goals per game.
Bobrovsky was pulled after he allowed six goals on 29 shots in the Panthers loss to the Golden Knights on Thursday. This loss wasn't on Bobrovsky, the Panthers were absolutely dominated by Vegas the entire game. Tonight he'll see the Penguins for the second time this season--he stopped 23 of 25 shots in a 4-2 win vs. Pittsburgh back in late-October.
Raanta was scheduled to start this afternoon in Boston but was a late scratch, so Adin HIll will end up getting the nod for Arizona.
Antti Raanta was scheduled to start this afternoon but was a late-scratch, so Hill will start in Boston. In his last start, Hill gave up three goals on 37 shots in the Coyotes loss to the Kings. Overall, he is 1-2-0 with a 1.88 GAA and .937 SV% on the road this season.
Shesterkin allowed three goals on 30 shots in the Rangers win over the Maple Leafs on Wednesday. Shesterkin's NHL career is off to a good start, winning four of his first five starts while posting a 2.61 GAA and .922 SV%. Tonight he faces a Kings team that has lost nine of their last 10 (1-8-1) while scoring just 1.80 goals per game.
Halak allowed one goal on 22 shots in the Bruins win in Chicago on Wednesday. Halak has played very well as of late, winning three in a row while giving up just four goals on 77 shots (.948 SV%). Halak has not faced the Red Wings this season but is 7-4-3 with a 2.33 GAA and .923 SV% on the road and is an obvious must-start in Detroit.
Khudobin allowed three goals one 36 shots in the Stars win in New York on Monday. Ben Bishop started the last two games, including last night, so they'll go with Khudobin tonight in St. Louis. Khudobin has gone 8-6-1 with a 2.61 GAA and .924 SV% in 14 road games this season.
Anderson allowed two goals on 36 shots in the Senators loss in Toronto last Saturday. Anderson has played well in his last two starts, stopping 62 of the 66 shots (.939 SV%) that he has faced. Anderson is an ugly 4-7-1 with a 3.43 GAA and .893 SV% on the road this season, so he's a risky option on Saturday afternoon.
Price allowed two goals on 37 shots in the Canadiens win over the Ducks on Thursday. Price has been excellent since mid-January, going 7-2-0 with a 1.65 GAA, .950 SV% and two shutouts in his last nine starts. Price has gone 2-0-0 while surrendering seven goals on 68 shots (.897 SV%) in two starts vs. the Maple Leafs.
