Goligoski was traded for James Neal and Matt Niskanen in 2011, I wonder if the Stars are starting to wish they got a little more in return. Make sure you get Goligoski out of your lineup tonight.
Anderson looks like he'll play almost every game this season, the only nights he may get off are during back-to-backs and even then who knows. He has been exceptional so far with a 6-2-1 record, 1.33 GAA and .956 SV%. He is a must-start in all formats.
Neither Bobrovsky or Mason has really played all that well this season. Bobrovsky hasn't played since he was yanked for giving up 3 goals on 11 shots vs. St. Louis on Jan. 31. He will look to rebound tomorrow vs. the Flames.
Nikitin has missed the Blue Jackets last 3 games but sounds like he will be back tomorrow vs. the Flames. He has 2 assists in 7 games this season and is a -3. He can put up points as he showed us last year 7 G and 25 A in only 54 games. However the +/- will likely be a problem.
Fasth will get his 4th start of the year tonight. In his first 3 starts he has recorded wins in all of them with a 1.30 GAA and a .946 SV%. This is a pretty good start to his NHL career, and he should continue to see starts as long as he is playing well and Hiller is struggling.
Nugent-Hopkins won't be out long, this is just precautionary. Edmonto expected to have him back on Saturday vs. the Red Wings.
Dubnyk has been a workhorse so far this season as tonight will mark his 10th straight start. He comes into tonight on a three game losing skid, two of which were OT losses though. Not only is Dubnyk playing a lot of games he has been working hard in those games. He has seen 117 shots in the last 3 contests and has turned aside 110 of them. He's growing into a good #2 fantasy option.
Neuvirth who stopped 18 of 21 shots he faced in a losing effort vs. Toronto last night will get the call tomorrow against Pittsburgh. The Capitals are really struggling and can't seem to find their stride. The Caps struggles really limit their goalies fantasy values, I would look elsewhere until they start performing better.
Scheifele only appeared in 4 games this season and served as a healthy scratch in 5 games. This is a good move for the Jets as he will get more playing time and opportunity in the OHL. Scheifele is a big part of the Jets future and there is no sense just having him sit and watch the games.
Callahan has now missed the Rangers last 3 games but has practiced on back-to-back days now so could be nearing a return.
Ehrhoff isn't expected to miss much time after missing yesterday's game, this could just be a maintenance day and he could be ready tomorrow for Montreal. Monitor his status tomorrow before the game.
Simmonds has missed the Flyers last two games with a concussion and isn't expected to be back for the weekend. Tye McGinn has taken his spot on the Flyers top line.
Coyle played 12:44 in his first game yesterday but didn't register a point. After just one game he is already getting moved up to the first line in place of Dany Heatley who will be bumped to the second line. This is a great opportunity for the young winger who will play with two great players in Mikko Koivu and Zach Parise.
Spurgeon who was just recently placed on IR missed another practice today. No timetable has been set for his return. Jonas Brodin will continue to play alongside Ryan Suter while Spurgeon is out.
Visnovsky posted 6 G and 21 assists in only 68 games last year and will be a welcomed addition to the Islanders blueline. He is only owned in 33% of ESPN leagues so if he is available in your league he could be a great Waiver wire pickup. Monitor if he'll be in the lineup tomorrow.
Bailey is still battling back from injury and could play in his first game of the season tomorrow. Monitor his status prior to tomorrow's contest vs. the Rangers. He is a good young player coming into his own, if he gets off to a good start he would be worth a waiver wire addition.
Marchand is the only fantasy relevant of the Bruins injuries will miss his first game since injuring his back and shoulder from crashing into the boards last week against the Maple Leafs.
Johansen was playing pretty good minutes for a young player (15:11 AVG) but only registered 2 assists in the Blue Jackets first 10 games and was a -5. He will go down to the AHL for more development.
This would be the second straight game that Kaberle is scratched for. He only has 1 assist this season and doesn't have the fantasy value he once did.
Eller only has 1 G and 2 A and it all came in one game. He is highly skilled but needs to stay in the lineup and score with more regularity if he is going to be fantasy relevant.
