The Penguins appear to be loading up for a Stanley Cup run. The got Brenden Morrow yesterday and now another big gritty player in Murray today. Murray (6'4" - 240 lbs.) is a great hitter but he is not offensive, making him irrelevant in fantasy.
Fasth was pulled in his last start after allowing three goals on 11 shots. He will be back between the pipes tonight after Jonas Hiller lost last night vs. the Red Wings. Fasth has a solid matchup vs. a slumping Sharks team (lost 7 of 9).
Dubnyk will get his third start against the Predators this season. In his two previous starts he is 1-1-0 with a 3.00 GAA and .909 SV%. He hasn't played in five days, so he should be well rested for tonight's game.
The Kings haven't scored a goal with Quick in net in either of his last two starts. It doesn't get any easier for him tonight when he takes on the Blackhawks in Chicago.
Kundratek has missed the Capitals last six games with a leg injury. The 23-year-old has one goal and six assists in 25 games this season.
Benn has one goal and five assists.
Rome hasn't played since February 23rd because of a broken bone in his foot. Jordie Benn will be a healthy scratch in order for Rome to return.
With Dan Ellis and Cam Ward both out with injuries, Peters is the last man standing for the starters job. He has a decent matchup vs. the Jets, and could be worth a pickup since he is likely to get all the starts while Ellis is out.
Blacker likely won't play tonight, but could get into the lineup in the near future with Liles out. He has 10 points in 53 games in the AHL this season.
Shaw missed practice on the weekend and this morning because of an illness, but he will be in the lineup tonight. He has 11 points in 30 games this season, he is much more useful in real hockey than he is in fantasy.
Hossa (upper-body) will miss his second game in a row tonight and is doubtful for tomorrow's game.
Lehtonen has won each of his last two starts. He recorded a 40-save shutout vs. the Kings and then allowed two goals on 35 shots in a 5-2 win over Colorado. He has a tough matchup tonight vs. a Minnesota team who has won five straight and seven out of their last eight.
Reimer allowed two goals on 33 shots on Saturday in a 3-2 win over Boston. He will face Boston again tonight looking for a repeat performance.
Lupul has three goals, an assist and a plus-4 rating in just two games since returning from a broken forearm.
Corvo has missed the Hurricanes last three games with a lower-body injury. He has 11 points in 23 games. He should be back on the Carolina blueline tomorrow.
Boychuk will miss his second straight game with a foot injury tonight. He has just one goal and four assists in 29 games this season.
LaRose hasn't played since March 2nd because of a concussion. This is the first time he has participated in practice without a no-contact jersey. It appears as if he is nearing a return.
Anderson was taking shots in practice but was doing so gingerly, so he isn't quite ready. However it is a good sign that he is taking shots once again.
Nash, 23, rejoins the Hurricanes after being reassigned to Charlotte on March 22, and scoring two goals in the Checkers’ 4-2 win at Texas on Saturday. Nash (6’1”, 191 lbs.) is in his third full professional season and has registered three goals, three assists (6 points) and a plus-2 rating in 16 games with the Hurricanes this season.
This is Gustavsson's first start since March 13th when he was lit up for five goals on 22 shots. He gets the call tonight after Jimmy Howard had a great weekend. Howard went 2-0-0 with a 1.00 GAA and .971 SV% vs. the Ducks on Friday and Sunday. Gustavsson has a good matchup against a Coyotes team who have lost five straight.
