Crawford allowed two goals on 21 shots in a statement win over the Ducks on Friday. It was Crawford's first win since returning to the Hawks crease on January 2. He moved to 1-1-4 with a 2.43 GAA and .922 SV% in January. He has a tough matchup in a rare matchup against the Bruins.
Luongo hasn't started since January 4 because of an ankle injury. In that contest he allowed two goals on 48 shots in a loss to the Kings. He is 16-10-6 with a 2.23 GAA and .922 SV% on the season and would draw an awesome matchup tonight vs. the Flames.
Lehtonen surrendered three goals on 40 shots in a a 4-2 loss to the Bruins on Thursday. It was his fourth straight start posting a SV% above .910, however he has only won one of those games. The Stars have run into some scoring issues lately and have been outscored 32-19 in their last eight games (1-7-0 in that span). Tonight he will face a surging Wild team who is 6-2-0 while outscoring the opposition 25-14 in their last eight.
Andersen stopped 31 of 32 shots in a win over the Canucks on Wednesday. With the Ducks entering the second game of a back-to-back he will relieve Jonas Hiller tonight in St. Louis. He has been excellent this season posting a 1.98 GAA and .927 SV% in 13 appearances. However, he is a risky start vs. a tough Blues team.
Quick stopped 28 of 29 shots in a 4-1 win over a great Blues team on Thursday. It was a big win for the Kings against a powerhouse St. Louis squad. Quick moved to 4-1-1 with a 1.32 GAA And .947 SV% since getting back from his groin injury on January 4. However, that one regulation loss came against the Red Wings team that he will see tonight. That being said, the Wings are really banged up and are coming off of back-to-back 1-0 losses.
Khudobin allowed two goals on 29 shots in a 2-0 loss to the Flames on Monday. Despite having three goalies on the roster, Khudobin has recently separated himself with Cam Ward on IR. Since returning to the Carolina crease he is 4-2-0 with a 2.00 GAA and .938 SV% and should make for a good start tonight vs. Florida.

Varlamov stopped 33 of 34 shots in a shootout win against the Devils on Thursday. The win moved him to third in the NHL with 23 on the season and was his seventh in his last eight starts.

In 17 games this season he has only recorded three assists with a minus-7 rating.

In his last four full seasons he has scored at least 20 goals in each season and in 2009-10 he had a career-high 35. He will likely find himself skating on the top-line with Daniel and Henrik Sedin. At 33-years-old the twins are not what they once were, but they are still among the NHL’s best and playing with them should help Burrows resurrect his season.
Pavelec stopped 20 of 22 shots in a 5-2 win over the Flames on Thursday. Pavelec has not seen much action in the two games since Paul Maurice was hired, he is 2-0 with a 1.50 GAA and .927 SV%. He draws a strong matchup tomorrow afternoon with the Oilers in town.

Dubnyk will make his Predators debut tonight after being traded for Matt Hendricks on Wednesday. On one of the NHL's worst defensive teams he was 11-17-2 with a 3.36 GAA and .894 SV%. In Nashville he will play behind a much stingier defensive unit which should help improve his overall numbers. It might be difficult to make a good first impression when he faces the 30-12-5 Avalanche. In his two previous games against Colorado he was 1-1-0 with a 2.54 GAA and .932 SV%.
