With Hartnell out with injury, Brayden Schenn suspended and Danny Briere still out the Flyers have had to shuffle their lines. Read and Simmonds will get a chance to play with Giroux which definitely increases their fantasy value.
Price has looked solid in net through the Habs first two games of the year, but isn't getting very much goal support. If the Canadiens can find the back of the net more often it would go a long way for Price's fantasy value.
Niemi looks to stay unbeaten on the season in his third start.
In Harding's first action of the season he played great an shut the Stars out. He still doesn't have much fantasy value because he is still the backup to Backstrom.
Dubnyk looks to rebound after a poor outing against the Sharks.
Paajarvi played his first game game of the year on Tuesday, but only saw 9:30 of ice time. He must have played well enough to impress the Edmonton coaching staff as they've moved him up to the third line. He still isn't fantasy relevant until he proves he can score at this level.
Brodeur is off to a great start this season 2-0, 0.50 GAA, .977 SV% and one shutout. He will get the start against a struggling offense in Washington who will look to get back on track. Brodeur is a great play as long he stays hot.
Gerbe is set to make his season debut on the Sabres third line with Grigorenko and Ott.
Rinne got the night off on Tuesday, so it was expected that he would get the start tonight against St. Louis. Rinne and the Predators got one point last time they played the Blues. They head into St. Louis tonight looking to take two points this time. Rinne vs Halak, should be a great divisional game.
Crawford might not post the best GAA and SV% but the offense he has in front of him is one of the best in the league. The goal support is enough to make him a serviceable fantasy goalie. If he can improve on his numbers he could grow into an elite fantasy option.
Lindback has struggled a little bit out of the gate. He will look to get back on track on Friday against Ottawa.
Lehtonen is 2-0 with a 2.00 GAA and .950 SV% early this season. He had a shutout going against the Red Wings until Damien Brunner scored with 3 seconds left. He has a tough matchup tonight going up against a hot Chicago Blackhawks team.
The Pens have moved Kennedy onto the second line to replace Eric Tangradi. This boosts Kennedy's fantasy value as long as he can take advantage of the situation.
No fantasy value even while Smith is out.
LaBarbera picks up some fantasy value until Smith is able to return.
This will be Lundqvist's fourth straight start and his second in two nights. 'King' Henrik and the Rangers finally got into the win column last night with an overtime win against the Bruins. He faces off tonight against the rival Flyers who are still searching for their first win. Should be a great matchup.
The Sabres have back-to-back games on Thursday and Friday so it appears like Enroth will start Thursday and they'll go back to Miller on Friday. Enroth has no fantasy value.
Wolski has been moved up to the first line to play with Backstrom and Oveckin. The Capitals need a spark and they hop that this move might provide that spark.
Not fantasy relevant
Tedenby replaces Zubrus on the top line and is now playing with Kovalchuk. This doesn't make him a must add by any stretch but he could be worth a spot start if you are shallow on LW.
