Lundqvist looked more Lundqvist-like on Wednesday. He stopped all 22 shots that he faced for his first shutout of the season. He has a great matchup tonight vs. a Devils team who are still searching for their first win.
Rask turned aside 27 of 29 shots in a win over Tim Thomas and the Panthers on Thursday. He is off to a great start winning four of six with a 1.51 GAA and .947 SV%. He faces a good Lightning offence tonight, so take a look at your #2 goalie's matchup before immediately deploying Rask.
Niemi will make his eighth straight start tonight. He is 6-0-1 with a 1.70 GAA and .930 SV% and faces the Flames tonight - he is a must start.
Howard missed the last three games with a bruised hand, but Jonas Gustavsson went 3-0. Howard returns to the cage against a Coyotes team that tagged him for three goals on 37 shots on October 10th. Expect a better Red Wings performance tonight.
Ward allowed two goals on 26 shots in his first win of the season on Thursday. He has a fairly good matchup vs. the 3-2-2 Islanders.
Dubnyk is still searching for his first win of the season after allowing three goals on 4- shots in a losing effort to the Islanders on Thursday. He has a fairly tough matchup vs. a surging Senators team.
Thomas played very well in his first start back from a groin injury and against his former team. He stopped 37 shots in the 3-2 loss, but the game-winner was a soft goal allowed by the veteran. He will take on the WIld tonight.
Harding took the loss on Thursday even though he stopped 27 of 29 shots. He has been great in Niklas Backstrom's absence, posting a 1.15 GAA and .946 SV%. He has a superb matchup vs. the Panthers tonight.
Bobrovsky allowed four goals on 35 shots on Thursday. It was his third straight loss and things don't get any easier today when he faces Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals.
Holtby allowed two goals on 36 shots, but was a tough luck loser as Henrik Lundqvist posted a shutout. He still only has one win on the year, but has a solid chance to make it two tonight. Holtby takes on a Blue Jackets team who have lost three straight games.
Fleury allowed one goal on 25 shots in a win over the Flyers on Thursday. He is perfect at 6-0 while sporting a 1.67 GAA and .932 SV% in six starts. He will go head-to-head vs. fellow Canadian, Roberto Luongo in a matinee today.
Nabokov gave up two goals on 29 shots in a win over the Oilers on Thursday. The 38-year-old netminder has had a great start to the year - posting a 2.25 GAA and .925 SV% in six starts. He allowed three goals and lost in OT in his only game vs. Carolina last season.
Luongo stopped all 25 shots that he faced to record his first shutout on Thursday. The win moved him to 4-3-0 with a 2.42 GAA and .912 SV%. Those a rock solid numbers, but his matchup with the Penguins today - is probably something you want to avoid.
Miller allowed three goals on 34 shots in a 3-0 loss to the Cancuks on Thursday. His strong play continues (2.49 GAA / .935 SV%) but the Sabres are really struggling offensively. He has a tough matchup vs. the speedy Avs tonight.
Olesz replaced Elias on the top line and is not recommended in any fantasy formats.
Aldredsson has been hot this season with 10 points in 10 games. However, you need to be cautious with the 40 year old winger. Shop him around your league to see if you can get a better player for the long-run.
Giroux is mired in a slump to start the season with only 3 assists in 8 games. Look to try and buy low on the talented young forward.
Good news that Trouba appears OK after the gruesome-looking hit.
Kane's presence will slightly increase the value of Handzus and Sharp.
Hossa's value doesn't change much playing with either Toews or Handzus. The good news is that Hossa is healthy after missing Friday's practice.
