Brodeur allowed one goal on 26 shots last night, but took the loss because the Devils couldn't solve Tuukka Rask. He catches a break tomorrow, the red-hot Joffrey Lupul will be out of the Maple Leafs lineup. He should make for a decent second-tier start.
Allen gets the call for the second game of a back-to-back. Brian Elliott played well enough yesterday to get the win vs. Chicago. This will be Allen's first start since being recalled, he has a scary matchup vs. a surprising Blue Jackets squad.
Bobrovsky played great again last night, allowing just one goal on 39 shots in a 3-1 win. He will start again tonight vs. a strong Blues team. Bobrovsky is fifth in the NHL in GAA (2.09) and third in the league in SV% (.930), he will most likely receive some Vezina consideration.
Lupul won't play tomorrow but monitor his status tomorrow as the Leafs are likely to have a better idea on what he is dealing with.
Craig Anderson is getting really close to returning and it was originally believed that he might be back tonight. However it will be Lehner after they traded Ben Bishop to the Lightning on Wednesday. Lehner stopped 47 of 50 shots in a 3-2 loss to the Bruins on Tuesday. He has a much easier matchup tonight vs. the Sabres.
Letang skated on his own this morning but not with the team. He will miss his fifth straight game tonight when the Pens take on the Rangers. He has the entire weekend to get ready for Pittsburgh's next game on Tuesday.

Fleury gave up six goals on 39 shots in a blowout 6-1 loss to the Rangers on Wednesday. He will face the same Rangers tonight looking for a better outing. Fleury is 11-2-0 with a 1.93 GAA and .924 SV% at home this season.
MacArthur has missed the Maple Leafs last four games but it looks like he will return tomorrow in place of the injured Joffrey Lupul.
Lupul took an ugly blow to the head from two Flyers last night. He looked a little groggy when he was trying to get off of the ice. The immediate concern is always a concussion, but Carlyle didn't make it sound like the injury was too serious. An update will likely be available later this afternoon.
Lundqvist stopped 26 of 27 shots that he faced in a 6-1 win over the Penguins on Wednesday. They take on the Pens again tonight looking for a repeat performance.
Fleury gave up six goals on 39 shots in a blowout 6-1 loss to the Rangers on Wednesday. He will face the same Rangers tonight looking for a better outing. Fleury is 11-2-0 with a 1.93 GAA and .924 SV% at home this season.
Howard allowed three goals on 37 shots in a 4-2 loss to the Coyotes last night. He will be back in the cage again tonight, this time in Colorado. He stopped 22 shots and led the Red Wings to a 3-2 win over the Avs on Monday. Howard is 2-0-0 with a 1.50 GAA and .951 SV% vs. Colorado this season.
This will be the fifth consecutive game that Vanek has missed with an upper-body injury. Consider Vanek questionable for Sunday's game with the Devils.
Jokinen was acquired by the Penguins on Wednesday and will suit up tonight vs. the Rangers. Jokinen has struggled this season, posting just six goals and five assists in 33 games with Carolina. Now he will be playing with two other veterans on a highly skilled team, you might be able to squeeze some fantasy value out of the 30-year-old.
The Wild says there is no exact timetable yet, but coach Mike Yeo said Thursday the Wild’s third-leading goal scorer will miss at least the next couple games and General Manager Chuck Fletcher said at least the next couple weeks.
Miller allowed one goal on 20 shots in a 4-1 win over the Penguins on Tuesday. Miller will face the Senators for the third time this season tonight. He is 0-1-1 with a 2.91 GAA and .908 SV% in his two previous starts vs. Ottawa.
NCAA free agents haven't made immediate impacts to date so we don't expect Lindblad to have any short-term fantasy relevance.
White has struggled this season and speculation was that he would get traded at Wednesday's deadline. Needless to say, he didn't and will find his way into Detroit's lineup on the road after a loss to Phoenix.
No word on who drops out of the lineup for Detroit but speculation is that Smith, Colaiacovo, or Lashoff would sit.
