Rask allowed three gaols on 27 shots in the Bruins loss to the Sabres on Saturday. It was Rask’s first regulation loss since November 26th, snapping a 19-0-2 stretch over his last 21 starts. Tonight he will face a Mike Smith-less Flames team on home-ice, where he is 14-5-2 with a 1.94 GAA and .930 SV% this year.
Ward stopped 29 of 30 shots in the Hurricanes win over the Avalanche on Saturday. He snapped a brief two-game losing skid and is now 4-1-1 with a 1.99 GAA, .931 SV% and one shutout in his last sixth start. The veteran comes into Tuesday’s game vs. the Kings at 8-3-2 with a 2.20 GAA and .923 SV% at PNC Arena this season.
Bobrovsky allowed one goal on 35 shots in the Blue Jackets win over the Devils on Saturday. Bobrovsky was starting on back-to-back nights and turned a strong performance, stopping a four-game losing streak for the 29-year-old. He is a solid option tonight vs. the Islanders, who he is 2-0-0 with a 2.00 GAA and .926 SV% against this year.
Nosek has missed the last 12 games with an upper-body injury but will replace Brendan Leipsic in the lineup on Tuesday. He has not done much offensively this season, so he shouldn't be considered in any fantasy formats.
Jones allowed two goals on 27 shots in the Sharks win in Anaheim on Sunday. Jones has started six of the Sharks’ last eight games, winning two of six with a 2.30 GAA and .923 SV%. Tonight he faces the Coyotes, who come in off of big win last night but on the tail-end of a back-to-back. Jones stopped 26 of 27 shots in a 3-1 win over Arizona back in late-November.
Methot has been limited to 16 games this season but he is on-track to play on Friday, barring a setback. Methot’s return will help the Stars defence much more than it will help any fantasy team.
Miller skated with a no-contact sweater this morning so he’s still not quite ready to return to the Bruins blueline. Miller will likely ditch that sweater later this week and could be back Saturday in Vancouver.
Rask allowed three gaols on 27 shots in the Bruins loss to the Sabres on Saturday. It was Rask’s first regulation loss since November 26th, snapping a 19-0-2 stretch over his last 21 starts. Tonight he will face a Mike Smith-less Flames team on home-ice, where he is 14-5-2 with a 1.94 GAA and .930 SV% this year.
MacKinnon is two weeks into a 2-4 week timetable, so he appears to be right on track in his recovery. The next step is for MacKinnon to ditch the no-contact sweater, which could happen later this week. MacKinnon will need a few practices before he’s set to return to the lineup.
Hutton allowed one goal on 24 shots in the Blues win over the Avalanche last Thursday. Jake Allen started both games this weekend, but they’ll come back to Hutton tonight in Nashville. It’s not surprising that he will face his former team and he comes in having won six of his last seven starts while posting a 1.13 GAA, .961 SV% and two shutouts.
Lundqvist stopped 37 of 38 shots in the Rangers win in Winnipeg on Sunday. Despite playing behind an extremely banged up lineup, Lundqvist has won two in a row while stopping 65 of the last 68 shots (.956 SV%) that he has faced. He will be in tough in Minnesota and the King comes in at 7-10-2 with a 2.81 GAA and .923 SV% on the road this season.
Vermette was a healthy scratch on Sunday, but will likely be back in the lineup tonight in Detroit. Vermette, who has just 16 points (8G / 8A) in 55 games this season, was a healthy scratch in two of the last three games.
McCormick was a healthy scratch in Toronto on Saturday, but will return tonight in Pittsburgh. McCormick will replace Fredrik Claesson in the lineup as the Senators go back to 12 forwards and six defensemen. McCormick has just one goal in five games while averaging just 5:47 TOI with the Senators.
Holtby surrendered five goals on 29 shots in the Capitals overtime loss to the Red Wings on Sunday. It definitely wasn’t Holtby’s best outing, but he’ll get right back between the pipes tonight in Winnipeg. The 28-year-old hasn’t been as consistent as he has been in recent years, but still remains a strong No.1 fantasy option. Tonight’s matchup is not ideal, so consider your other options if they have better matchups.
