Campbell allowed five goals on 26 shots in the Kings loss in Chicago on Sunday. Campbell had a nice start to the season but has stumbled as of late, losing his last three starts while posting a 3.04 GAA and .875 SV%. Tonight he faces a Chicago team that has lost five of their last six (1-4-1) while averaging just 1.67 goals per game.

Francouz gave up four goals on 26 shots in Colorado's loss to the Ducks last Saturday. Francouz has played very sparingly early in the season but has played well when called upon--2-1-0 with a 2.63 GAA and .926 SV%. Tonight he faces a Coyotes team that is 7-4-1 while averaging 2.83 goals per game (19th in the NHL).

Sautner will replace Quinn Hughes, who is day-to-day with a bruised knee. Sautner has three assists in 22 career NHL games and picked up one assist in four AHL games before being called-up.

Hughes left Friday's game with a lower-body injury and has officially been ruled out of Saturday's game in San Jose. Ashton Sautner will replace him in the lineup for at least one game.

Demko allowed two goals on 31 shots in the Canucks win over the Panthers on Monday. Jacob Markstrom started the last two games, including last night, so Demko will make his fifth start tonight. He is 3-1-0 with a 1.73 GAA and .941 SV% in his first four starts and gets a crack at a struggling Sharks team that sits 27th in goal-scoring (2.43 GF/gm) in their first 14 games.

Allen allowed four goals on 24 shots in the Blues loss to the Canadiens on October 19th. Allen missed a start last weekend due to an illness but will make his third start of the season on Saturday evening. He has allowed four goals in each of his starts while posting a .849 SV%, but a matchup with the Wild keeps him in the spot-start conversation on Saturday.

Bernier allowed one goal on 12 shots in the Red Wings loss in Carolina last night. With Jimmy Howard stumbling, Bernier will go tonight in Florida and look to snap a four-game personal losing streak. The Panthers currently rank fifth in the league in goal scoring (3.54 GF/gm) so look elsewhere for goalie options tonight.

Varlamov surrendered three goals on 31 shots in the Islanders win over the Flyers last Sunday. Thomas Greiss started last night so look for Varlamov to get the second game of their back-to-back in Buffalo. He comes into play on a four-game winning streak, posting a 1.96 GAA and .935 SV% in the process. He is a good option whenever the Islanders call on him.

Campbell allowed five goals on 26 shots in the Kings loss in Chicago on Sunday. Campbell had a nice start to the season but has stumbled as of late, losing his last three starts while posting a 3.04 GAA and .875 SV%. Tonight he faces a Chicago team that has lost five of their last six (1-4-1) while averaging just 1.67 goals per game.

Korpisalo was pulled after allowing four goals on 12 shots in the Blue Jackets loss to the Oilers on Wednesday. With Elvis Merzlikins starting last night, head coach John Tortorella will tab Korpisalo for tonight's game vs. the Flames. Calgary has lost three of five and rank 21st in the NHL in offence (2.73 GF/gm) though 15 games.

Price allowed one goal on 33 shots in the Canadiens win in Arizona on Wednesday. Keith Kinkaid got the nod on Thursday, so Price will likely start Saturday night in Dallas. Price has won four of his last five while posting an impressive 1.82 GAA, .935 SV% and one shutout. Price is playing very well but the Stars come in having won five of their last six, so they're hot as well.
