Jonathan Quick started last night vs. the Coyotes and stopped all 27 shots that he faced. With Quick starting last night there is no real surprise that it will be Bernier in between the pipes tonight. In his last start he allowed two goals on 22 shots in a winning effort vs. San Jose. The Coyotes are not a good offensive team so Bernier makes a good start tonight.
Bernier will start at home tonight where he is 3-0-0 with a 1.79 GAA and .918 SV% this season. The Kings are coming off of a 4-3 loss to the Sharks on Thursday. They will face San Jose again tonight, looking for a better result.
Bernier will very likely start at home tonight where he is 3-0-0 with a 1.79 GAA and .918 SV% this season. The Kings are coming off of a 4-3 loss to the Sharks on Thursday. They will face San Jose again tonight, looking for a better result.
Bernier has been lights out this season so he deserves to start. In his last five starts he has won all five with a 1.00 GAA and .956 SV%. Quick has also played well but the Kings are going to ride the hot hand of Bernier. He only saw 19 shots last night vs. Nashville so he should be fresh tonight against the Blues.

Bernier has been great in a backup role this season. He has won his last four starts while only allowing one goal in each game. He has posted a .958 SV% over those four starts. He has a good matchup tonight vs. a Predators team with a weak offense, but he will need to outplay Pekka Rinne if he wants to record the win.
Bernier has won all of his last three starts while posting a 1.80 GAA and .916 SV%. However the Red Wings proved your prior GAA means nothing when they lit up Luongo for eight goals on Sunday. Luongo came into that game with the lowest GAA in the NHL. The Kings are on a roll right now having won four straight. Bernier could make for a nice spot start should the Kings hold the Red Wings offense to a minimum.
Jonathan Quick started yesterday for the Kings recording the win over the Oilers so there is no surprise that they are going with Bernier in the tail-end of the back-to-back. Bernier has been great in his last two starts. He is 2-0-0 with a 1.00 GAA and .943 SV%. He has a great matchup tonight vs. the Flames and should be a great spot start.
Bernier played well in the Kings last game only allowing 1 goal on 23 shots vs. a good Blues team. It looks like he will make his second consecutive start tonight vs. the Blue Jackets. Bernier is only owned in 0.2% of ESPN leagues so he could make for a good spot start tonight vs. a weak Columbus roster.
This will be Bernier's first start of the season. He entered a game earlier when Quick was pulled but didn't fair any better than Quick. Bernier will want a good performance if he wants to get traded, but the match-up isn't ideal as the Kings take on the Blues. Bernier is a good young goalie and could be a good spot start but against the Blues it is risky.
In six career starts against the Preds, Bernier has a 5-1-0 record with a 2.00 GAA, .933 SV% and one shutout.
Bernier beat Columbus in his only career start against them, stopping 32 of 34 shots faced.

Bernier moves from the fourth line to the second tonight. He has a goal and four points in 15 games.
In two career starts against the Wild, Bernier has a 1-0-1 record with a 0.96 GAA, .962 SV% and one shutout.
Bernier has never faced the Avalanche.
Brown, back from the flu, is moved to the second line. The team's captain has 13 goals and 29 points in 59 games.
Brown misses today's practice and might miss a game or two. The team's captain has 13 goals and 29 points in 59 games.
Bernier would fit the bill as a guy who hasn't played since January 9th. He won his only career start against the Canes, stopping 27 of 30 shots faced.
