He faces the Dallas Stars, who just snapped a four-game winning streak with a 3-2 loss to Los Angeles in their previous game.

The 29-year-old has been having by far the worst season of his 10-year career, with his 5-14-3 record, .896 SV% and 3.99 GAA.

Tarasov allowed four goals on 38 shots (.895 SV%) as he picked up his fourth straight loss in a defeat to Philadelphia in his previous game. The 23-year-old has been leaned on heavily lately and played well despite what his 2-7-1 record may show, as he has a .913 SV% and 3.13 GAA.

Tarasov allowed only one goal on 33 shots (.970 SV%) but still managed to pick up his fourth straight loss in a hard-fought defeat to the Dallas Stars in his last start.

He will take on the Philadelphia Flyers, who have lost five of their last six games after a 6-3 defeat to the Rangers in their last game.

Tarasov allowed four goals on 39 shots (.897 SV%) to pick up his third straight loss in a defeat to the league leading Boston Bruins in his last start.

He will face the Dallas Stars, who are coming off a 5-4 overtime loss but are fourth in the NHL in goals per game (3.63).
