The Ducks might give Souray the night off. The 36-year-old has played in 18 games season. With the condensed schedule the occasional night off would help. Monitor his status before game-time.
NHL Hockey Player News
Bishop has been spectacular since taking over for Craig Anderson. He has won four games in a row with a 1.69 GAA and .949 SV%. He has a tough matchup vs. a good offensive Flyers team.

Hiller is 2-0-0 with a 2.41 GAA and .900 SV% since returning from injury. Him and Viktor Fasth seem to be in a 50/50 split but he gets the nod tonight vs. Minnesota. Both teams are playing well right now but it appears as if Minnesota will start rookie netminder Darcy Kuemper instead of Backstrom who has won three of his last four.

Elliott hasn't started since February 11. Elliott has struggled this season he will enter tomorrow's game with a 3.57 GAA and .849 SV%. He will have a solid matchup vs. the Stars. He likely won't see too many starts going forward as it appears Halak is the clear #1 at this point.

Niklas Backstrom started last night so Kuemper could start tonight with Josh Harding still on IR. The Wild didn't have a morning skate today so the starter won't be confirmed until closer to game-time.

Mason stopped 26 of 27 shots in a losing effort in his last start when the Blue Jackets were unable to score on Corey Crawford. Mason takes on the very same Blackhawks tonight where he will look to play well again. Hopefully for his sake Columbus will be able to find the back of the net.

Dalpe has two assists and a -4 in seven games with Hurricanes this season.

Dubnyk snapped his three game losing streak with a 33 save performance in a 5-1 win over Dallas last night. Dubnyk has a tough matchup tonight vs. the Blues but if the Oilers can continue to score like they have lately he could record a W.

Halak is 1-1-1 since returning from his groin injury with a 1.62 GAA and .921 SV%. He has a solid matchup vs. a beatable Oilers team. He will be opposed by Devan Dubnyk who stopped 33 of 34 shots in a 5-1 win over Dallas last night.

Khudobin is 2-1-0 with a 2.70 GAA and .905 SV% this season. He has a tough matchup vs. a Lightning team who leads the NHL in scoring. The Bruins have a back-to-back this weekend so Tuukka Rask will likely start on Sunday.

This will be Holtby's ninth straight start and he has won five of his last eight. The Capitals have started to turn their season around after a rough start. He has a decent matchup vs. the Jets, however they have five of their last six.

WIth Crawford injured it appears as if Emery will start although it hasn't been confirmed. He stopped all 15 shots he faced after coming in for Crawford last night. Emery still hasn't lost this season and should be able to add another to his win total tonight when the Blackhawks take on the Blue Jackets.


This is the first time Anderson has faced shots since he got hurt on February 21. There is no word on when Anderson will return to the Senators crease. Consider him day-to-day.

This is the first time Tarasenko has skated since he suffered a concussion on February 20. Concussions are tricky so there is no timetable for his return but it is positive news that he was at the rink.

Meszaros has only appeared in four games this season but looks like he is nearing a return to the lineup. He scored 25 points in 62 games last season and is a fairly consistent fantasy option year-to-year so he would be a good depth defenceman to add to your team when he returns to the Flyers lineup.

WIth Crawford injured it appears as if Emery will start although it hasn't been confirmed. He stopped all 15 shots he faced after coming in for Crawford last night. Emery still hasn't lost this season and should be able to add another to his win total tonight when the Blackhawks take on the Blue Jackets.

Crawford left yesterday's contest in the first period after suffering a lower-body injury. He only made six saves but since Chicago scored before he exited the game and Emery stopped all 15 shots he faced, Crawford was still awarded the win. The Blackhawks say the injury is not related to his previous injury that caused him to miss four games in February. The Blackhawks play again tonight so look for Emery to get the start.

Green missed three games with a lower-body injury but returned on Tuesday and played on Wednesday as well. This could just be a maintenance day for Green but more details will follow as they become available.

Hendricks has been moved to the Capitals top line alongside Ribeiro and Ovechkin. This gives Hendricks a chance to produce offensively but he only has three goals and one assist in 19 games this season. He has 54 points in 234 career NHL games, not good numbers from a fantasy standpoint but lets see what he can do on the top line.
