Gudbranson has four assists in 22 games this season. Monitor his status prior to puck-drop. If your lineup locks at the first game, I would sit Gudbranson as he likely won't play with Kulikov returning to the lineup.
Niemi makes his eighth straight start tonight, however he has only won two out of his last seven. In those seven starts he has posted a 3.55 GAA and .884 SV%. He has a tough matchup vs. a Wild team who have won four straight and six out of their last seven.
Schneider has won two straight with a 1.51 GAA and .956 SV%. Schneider has a fairly tough matchup vs. the Kings.
Quick allowed two goals on 21 shots in a 2-0 loss to the Stars on Thursday. He will likely get the start tonight vs. the Canucks. He was on the losing side of a 5-2 game the last time he faced Vancouver.
Clemmensen is 0-4-0 with a 4.34 GAA and .847 SV% in March. He has a fairly tough matchup against a Devils roster led by Martin Brodeur.
Miller allowed four goals on 34 shots in a 5-4 shootout win over the Maple Leafs on Wednesday. He will be back in goal tonight against the Canadiens. It is a tough matchup for Miller.
Reports are that Khudobin was going to get his second straight start, but Rask was the first goalie to leave the ice at practice. We might have to wait until warmups to know who the Bruins starter is.
Rinne snapped his four game losing streak with a win over the Flames on Thursday. He has a fairly tough matchup vs. a red-hot Columbus team. He is 0-1-1 with a 2.92 GAA and .893 SV% in two starts vs. Columbus.
With Leo Komarov going on IR, Hamilton will enter the Maple Leafs lineup. He has 48 points in 56 games in the AHL this season.
Komarov is dealing with an upper body injury. Ryan Hamilton will replace him in the Maple Leafs lineup.
With Anders Lindback out indefinitely Garon is the Lightning starter for the time-being. He lost his last start allowing three goals on 18 shots. He gets the start vs. a Senators team that just keeps winning despite dealing with a lot of injuries.
Campbell didn't make a start during his call-up.
Bachman is 2-3-0 with a 4.27 GAA and .838 SV% in five starts with Dallas this season.
Stewart has 14 goals and 14 assists in 29 games this season. He had 15 and 15 in 79 games last season.
Clemmensen is 0-4-0 with a 4.34 GAA and .847 SV% in March. He has a fairly tough matchup against a Devils roster led by Martin Brodeur.
Rinne snapped his four game losing streak with a win over the Flames on Thursday. He has a fairly tough matchup vs. a red-hot Columbus team. He is 0-1-1 with a 2.92 GAA and .893 SV% in two starts vs. Columbus.
The play happened during Thursday's 2-1 Vancouver victory over the Coyotes.Edler was assessed a five-minute major after running into Smith behind the net late in the second period. Smith was injured on the play and finished the period but wasn't back in net for the third. He was replaced by Jason Labarbera. Edler will miss games on Saturday at Los Angeles and Sunday at Colorado. He is eligible to return on Tuesday when the Canucks host the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Price allowed two goals on 27 shots in a dominant 5-2 win over the Islanders. The win pushed his record to 5-1-2 in March despite posting a 3.20 GAA and .891 SV%. He gets the nod tonight vs. Buffalo who he is 1-0-1 against this season, he should be a great start.
Reimer allowed four goals on 36 shots in a 5-4 shootout loss vs. Buffalo on Thursday. He will be back between the pipes tonight vs. a good Boston team. Reimer is 0-1-0 with a 1.01 GAA and .971 SV% vs. the Bruins this season.
The guess is Aaron Rome (foot) is close to returning.
