The young Swede has a a rough season after putting up some solid numbers last campaign. With 10 games tonight he probably isn't a viable starting option unless you are desperate.

Bernier has been lights out this year with a 1.86 GAA

Dougie isn't quite ready for prime-time fantasy but if you have him keep him on the bench.

The young Swede has a a rough season after putting up some solid numbers last campaign. With 10 games tonight he probably isn't a viable starting option unless you are desperate.

Markstrom has lost his last 4 starts and was pulled in 2 of those games.

Hamilton and Lucic did not take pregame warmups.

Markstrom has lost his last 3 starts .

Dougie draws back into the lineup

Those counting on the rookie to man the Bruins' powerplay will have to wait until Monday's game as the Bruins prep for a playoff push.

Markstrom allowed six goals on 23 shots in a 7-2 loss to the Jets in Winnipeg. It won't get any easier for the young net-minder tonight as he faces Evgeni Malkin and the Penguins. I don't think it would be a good idea to start him tonight.

We knew McQuaid was going to play but not who was going to come out. Dougie Hamilton will watch tonight from the press box. He has four goals and 11 assists in 39 games.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 31 shots in a loss to Washington last Saturday. He will get the nod against the Jets tonight, which isn't too bad of a matchup for him. However it is hard to trust a Panthers goalie in fantasy, especially given how bad their offense is (23rd in goals/per game).

This does not always guarantee the starter but in the case of the Kings the first goalie off has started every game this season. Bernier posted a 23-save shutout against Minnesota in his last start. He has another tough assignment tonight as he will face Pacific Division leading Anaheim Ducks.

Markstrom has won three straight games with a 2.66 GAA and .925 SV%. In his only start vs. the Caps this season he allowed two goals on the first two shots and was pulled. He will look for a better result this time around, but the Capitals are one of the NHL's hottest teams right now. They have won six out of their last eight games.

Bernier has won each of his last three starts but he has surrendered a lot of the starts to Quick recently. This will be just his third start since March 19th. He has a tough matchup vs. the red-hot Minnesota Wild.

Bernier is 7-2-0 with a 1.94 goals against average and .923 save percentage, hasn’t started a game since stopping 40 of 42 shots against Phoenix on March 19, and is yet to face a Dallas team that is 2-0-0 against the Kings.

I’m leaning 55-45% in favor of Jonathan Bernier starting on the second night of a back-to-back, but travel and back-to-back games are not firm precedents that determine starting goaltenders in Darryl Sutter’s considerations. Bernier is 7-2-0 with a 1.94 goals against average and .923 save percentage, hasn’t started a game since stopping 40 of 42 shots against Phoenix on March 19, and is yet to face a Dallas team that is 2-0-0 against the Kings.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 40 shots in a winning effort in his last start vs. the Sabres. He will go head-to-head with Martin Brodeur tonight, so be wary of the matchup.
