Kane's status for this evening's game remains unknown. Expect an update later in the day. Kane has been dominant to start his fifth NHL season so this would be a huge loss for the Jets.
Letang participated in a full practice yesterday and it was thought that he could be ready today. He could be back in the lineup on Saturday vs. Vancouver.
Da Costa has no points and a plus-1 rating while averaging 11:27 TOI in four games.
Price stopped all 36 shots he faced to record his first shutout of the season on Tuesday. He has only allowed one goal on 76 shots in his last two starts, which has lowered his GAA to 1.81 and brought his SV% up to .944. He has a good chance to continue his hot play vs. a Columbus team that ranks 23rd in the NHL in scoring.
Luongo allowed two goals on 22 shots in a 3-2 win over the Flyers on Tuesday. It was an easy bounce back game for the Canucks netminder, after allowing seven goals in his two previous starts. He has a great matchup with the Sabres tonight.
Crawford turned aside 32 of 34 shots in a win against the Hurricanes on Tuesday. He has won each of his last two starts, allowing three goals on 63 shots (.952 SV%). He has a tough matchup against the Blues tonight.
Ellis gave up three goals on 26 shots vs. Colorado on Tuesday. With Kari Lehtonen (lower-body) still injured, Ellis will look for his first win as a Star tonight. It won't be easy against the undefeated Sharks who lead the NHL in scoring. It's a busy night in the NHL, there are much better options.
Dubnyk will look for his first win when he takes on the Islanders tonight. He was given the last two games off, but will be back in the cage tonight. He is 0-3-0 with a 5.43 GAA and .829 SV% in four starts, so he should remain on your bench until he turns things around.
Price stopped all 36 shots he faced to record his first shutout of the season on Tuesday. He has only allowed one goal on 76 shots in his last two starts, which has lowered his GAA to 1.81 and brought his SV% up to .944. He has a good chance to continue his hot play vs. a Columbus team that ranks 23rd in the NHL in scoring.
Cormier has one assist and 13 PIMs in four games with St. Johns.
Niemi stopped 25 of 27 shots in a 6-2 win over the Blues on Tuesday. It was Niemi's sixth win in as many starts, while posting a 1.50 GAA and .936 SV%. He will try and get to 7-0 tonight in Dallas. He was 1-2-1 with a 2.73 GAA and .897 SV% in four starts against the Stars last season.
St. Louis missed practice yesterday and today after taking a Drew Doughty shot off the foot on Tuesday. He has no broken bone in his foot and can't injure the foot anymore by playing on it, just comes down to pain tolerance. Brett Connolly would take St. Louis spot on the Lightning top line if he can't play.
Consider van Riemsdyk day-to-day and questionable for Saturday's matchup with the Blackhawks.
Miller was sensational once again stopping 41 of 44 shots and registering his first win of the season on Tuesday. He has been peppered in five starts this season, seeing an average of 39.4 shots per game. Tonight's matchup is less than desirable.
Bishop turned aside 30 of 31 shots in his first game back from his lower-body injury. He is 4-0 with a 1.71 GAA and .939 SV% so start him while he is hot, because it is not expected to last all season. He has a decent matchup tonight vs. Minnesota.
Mason surrendered three goals on 25 shots in Tuesday's loss to Vancouver. His numbers continue to look good, but he still only has one win. The lack of offence in from of him hurts his fantasy value, and until they figure it out in Philly he is a tough play - especially tonight vs. Pittsburgh.
Nabokov allowed three goals on 34 shots in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Sabres on Tuesday. It was his second straight loss, despite having a decent start. He has a 2.29 GAA and .924 SV% and will look to build off that against an Oilers team averaging 2.86 goals per game.
Bourque's status for tonight's game will be updated after practice.
Reimer stopped 36 of 37 shots in a 4-1 win over the Wild on Tuesday. After Jonathan Bernier has a streak of four straight starts, Reimer showed that he can still be the number one guy in Toronto. He will get another chance tonight vs. Carolina.
Anderson allowed three goals on 37 shots in a 4-3 overtime win vs. Phoenix on Tuesday. It was a nice bounce back for Anderson after being yanked in his previous outing. He has a great matchup against the winless Devils tonight.
