Schneider allowed four goals on 35 shots in the Devils’ loss in Tampa Bay on Saturday. Keith Kinkaid started on Sunday, but they’ll go back to Schneider tonight vs. the Hurricanes. Schneider has lost his last two starts while allowed a combined four goals 66 shots (.879 SV%). Despite a few rough games, Schneider remains a high-end option tonight vs. Carolina.
Murray stopped all 32 shots that he faced in the Penguins’ shutout win in San Jose on Saturday. Murray has won each of his first two starts since returning from a broken hand, stopping 64 of 65 shots (.985 SV%). Tonight he will face an Oilers team that has gone 2-1-1 while averaging 2.50 goals per game in the first four games of their road trip.
Mason was yanked after allowing three goals on 13 shots in the Flyers’ loss to the Penguins on October 29th. Michal Neuvirth started the last four games, but Mason will get back between the pipes tonight vs. Detroit. Mason has posted an ugly 3.46 GAA and .878 SV% in eight games so far this season and is a risky start whenever he gets the nod right now.
Raanta stopped 35 of 37 shots in the Rangers’ win in Boston on Saturday. Henrik Lundqvist started on Sunday, but they’ll go back to Raanta tonight vs. the Canucks. Raanta is 3-0-0 with a 2.34 GAA and .930 SV% in his only three starts and makes for a top-option tonight. Vancouver has lost nine in a row while averaging just 1.33 goals per game and 3.56 goals against.
Murray stopped all 32 shots that he faced in the Penguins’ shutout win in San Jose on Saturday. Murray has won each of his first two starts since returning from a broken hand, stopping 64 of 65 shots (.985 SV%). Tonight he will face an Oilers team that has gone 2-1-1 while averaging 2.50 goals per game in the first four games of their road trip.
Mazanec appeared in just two games this season, allowing seven goals on 36 shots (.806 SV%). With Mazanec struggling and Pekka Rinne being average, Juuse Saros has swapped places with Mazanec.
Fiala picked up two goals on 18 shots in 10 games with the Predators. The 20-year-old, former 11th overall pick (2014) has not developed the way the Predators have hoped, so he returns to Milwaukee, where he had 50 points (18G / 32A) in 66 games last year. Pontus Aberg has been recalled to replace Fiala.
Aberg, 23, was a second round pick (37th overall) in 2012 and has had a great start to 2016-17, picking up nine points (5G / 4A) in nine games with Milwaukee. Aberg replaces Kevin Fiala on the Predators’ roster and should make his NHL debut on Tuesday.
Saros stopped 34 of 35 shots in a win over the Penguins in his season debut back on October 22nd. Saros is viewed as the Predators’ goalie of the future and his recall comes after he went 6-1-0 with a 1.99 GAA and .929 SV% with Milwaukee. With Pekka Rinne being average through the first month of the season, Saros comes up to be the Predators’ No.2, but carries some fantasy value in daily leagues, especially in keeper leagues.
Andersen allowed three goals on 26 shots in the Maple Leafs’ win over the Canucks on Saturday. Andersen had a rough start to the season, but has now won his last three starts while posting a 2.06 GAA and .948 SV%. Tonight he will take on a Kings team that has been shutout in each of their last two road game and are tied for 26th in scoring (2.25 G/PG).
Mason was yanked after allowing three goals on 13 shots in the Flyers’ loss to the Penguins on October 29th. Michal Neuvirth started the last four games, but Mason will get back between the pipes tonight vs. Detroit. Mason has posted an ugly 3.46 GAA and .878 SV% in eight games so far this season and is a risky start whenever he gets the nod right now.
Pickard stopped all 32 shots that he faced in Colorado’s shutout win over the Wild on Saturday. Pickard also stopped all three shots that he faced after replacing Semyon Varlamov in the Avs’ loss on Sunday. Pickard comes into Tuesday with a 3-0-0 record, 1.50 GAA and .946 SV% on the season and draws a strong matchup vs. the Coyotes.
Rask allowed five goals on 24 shots in the Bruins’ loss to the Rangers on Saturday. It was Rask’s first loss of the season, but he isn’t the only one getting beat up by the Rangers right now. Even with a rough outing, Rask still has a 1.98 GAA and .932 SV% in seven starts this season. Rask remains a must-start tonight vs. the Sabres—who have won four of their last five.
After holding out of training camp and the first month of the season, the Jets were finally able to sign restricted free agent Jacob Trouba to a two-year deal. Trouba is regarded as one of the best young defenseman in the NHL and signing him is huge for the Jets' success in 2016-17. Trouba had 21 points (6G / 15A) in 81 games with the Jets last season.
Edler missed Saturday’s game in Toronto, but is expected to play on Monday. There’s no word on who will come out of the lineup in favour of Edler, but expect it to be either Troy Stecher or Nikita Tryamkin.
Anderson allowed two goals on 32 shots in the Senators’ loss to the Sabres on Saturday. The loss snapped his three-game winning streak and moved him to 6-2-0 on the season. Anderson has an impressive 2.21 GAA, .930 SV% and two shutouts this season and draws a solid matchup against a Predators team that has lost five of their last six games.
Lehkonen suffered an undisclosed injury in Saturday’s game vs. the Flyers. Lehkonen missed Monday’s practice and will not play Tuesday vs. the Bruins. Consider him day-to-day.
Zatkoff has missed the last nine games with a groin injury, but was back at practice on Monday and said he is 100 percent. Zatkoff may not start on Tuesday with Peter Budaj coming off of a shutout, but it looks like he will return in a backup capacity. Zatkoff has a 4.37 GAA and .839 SV% in three games this season.
Drouin was not on the ice for the Lightning’s morning skate and will not play Monday vs. the Panthers. Head coach Jon Cooper said that he hopes that Drouin will be ready to return soon.
Bishop stopped 37 of 38 shots in the Lightning’s win vs. the Devils on Saturday. After a rough outing in New York last Sunday, Bishop has won two in a row while stopping 63 of 65 shots (.969 SV%). Bishop’s overall numbers aren’t great, but he remains a high-end fantasy option and tonight he takes on the Panthers for the second time this season—he stopped 28 of 31 shots in a shootout win in the first meeting.
