He was expected to miss 4-6 months when he had his Achilles tendon 70% severed in February. It is almost unbelievable but Karlsson will in fact be in the Senators lineup tonight. He will be paired with Marc Methot. If you picked him up in a daily league, you're probably pretty happy right now. Get him in your lineup!
Reimer allowed four goals on 25 shots in a 5-2 loss to the Lightning last night. The Leafs are locked into the playoffs so it would be surprising if they didn't give Remer a rest in back-to-back situation. He has a great matchup tonight vs. the Panthers.
Horton will miss his third straight game tonight. He could play on Saturday.
There you have it. Babcock said that Franzen was going to be a game-time decision, but Franzen says he is in. This means Bertuzzi will not play.
MacDonald allowed just one goal on 35 shots in a win over the Wild on Sunday. He has won four out of his last five starts, but he has a tough matchup vs. the Blues tonight. Not someone you can trust at this point in the season.
This is a tough break if you have Semin. He had posted three goals and five assists in his last six games. Make sure to get him out of your lineup. Chad LaRose will move up to the first line and Jared Staal will join his brother Jordan on the second line.
We'll have to wait to see if it will be Bertuzzi or Franzen. If it is Bertuzzi, he is not fantasy relevant.
Franzen was hurt last night and might miss tonight's game. We'll have to wait for an official word from the Red Wings. He has played great as of late (6 goals in his last 6 games) so this would be a big blow to the Red WIngs roster.
It was originally reported that Steve Mason was going to get the start but it will actually be Ilya Bryzgalov. It is a good thing the Flyers updated that quickly instead of waiting. This will be Bryzgalov's first start since April 18th when he lost to the Devils. He'll take on the Islanders that are starting their backup Kevin Poulin, so Bryz could get a W tonight.
Strachan has missed the last four games with an upper-body injury. He has three assists and a minus-11 in 36 games this year.
As he did yesterday Karlsson is practicing as if he is going to play tonight. However he said he was not sure if he was in for sure. We will have to wait for an update after practice from the Senators. Stay tuned.
Although the Rangers badly outshot the Panthers, Lundqvist was out-dueled but fellow Swede Jacob Markstrom on Tuesday. He gave up two goals on 15 shots in the loss. He'll face the Hurricanes tonight, he is 'King' Henrik, he is a must-start in all formats.
Rask allowed two goals on 13 shots in a relief effort of Anton Khudobin on Tuesday. The Bruins lost 5-2 to the Flyers and have now dropped five out of their last six games. He has a pretty good matchup against a Lightning team struggling to find W's.
Mason will make his third straight start for the Flyers. He is 2-0-0 with a 2.50 GAA and .929 SV% in his two previous starts. He takes on an Islanders team who will start backup Kevin Poulin, so Mason could pull out a third straight win.
Markstrom played great stopping 36 of 38 shots in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday. He had lost six straight while giving up 25 goals prior to Tuesday's contest. He'll face a solid Leafs team tonight, look elsewhere.
Gelinas had six goals and 16 assists in 57 games in the AHL this season. Gelinas will replace Alexander Urbom in the lineup, and will play with Peter Harrold.
Forsberg is a big prospect and was acquired from Washington in the Martin Erat deal at the deadline. The former #11 pick in the 2012 NHL Entry draft had one assist and a minus-3 in four games with the Preds.
Rask had 10 points (5G-5A) in 52 games as a member of Jokerit Helsinki of the SM-liiga. In one game in the AHL he scored once and added an assist.
Poulin has not started since April 2nd so he will be well rested for tonight's contest with the Flyers. The Isles have clinched a playoff spot so they have the option to go to their backup without any consequence. I wouldn't advise using Poulin tonight.
The Capitals have locked up their division so they can turn to Neuvirth tonight after Braden Holtby started the last six games. Neuvirth's last start came on April 9th when he stopped 27 of 29 in a win over the Habs. He will face a desperate Sens team tonight, but the Caps are hot so he could make a solid start if you have no other option.
