Tampa Bay Lightning News

Glendening missed the Red Wings’ morning skate due to an illness and is listed as questionable for tonight’s game. Glendening has just two goals on the season, so he can’t be counted on in fantasy circles.

Elliott surrendered two goals on 38 shots in the Blues win over the Flames on December 19th. Jake Allen started last night, so Elliott will go tonight in Dallas. Elliott has gone 3-2-1 with a 2.64 GAA and .904 SV%, but should be avoided tonight because of the horrible matchup with the NHL’s highest scoring offence.

Elliott allowed three goals on 28 shots in the Blues loss to the Flyers on December 10th. Elliott has fallen way behind Jake Allen in terms of starts, but will go today vs. the Flames. Elliott has lost his last three starts, but has posted a solid 1.98 GAA and .933 SV%. He has been unlucky this season and today he draws a tough matchup vs. a surging Flames team that has won seven straight games.

In Vasilevskiy’s last start, he was pulled after allowing two goals on 10 shots. He is 2-4-0 with a 2.76 GAA and .910 SV%w with the Lightning this season, but recently returned from the AHL where he went 0-1-1 with a 3.47 GAA and .892 SV% in two starts. He has struggled this year, but draws a nice matchup tonight in Toronto.

Elliott allowed one goal on 25 shots in the Blues shootout loss in Brooklyn last Friday. Elliott has only started eight games this season but has appeared in relief three times. Overall, he has gone 4-2-2 with a 2.36 GAA and .909 SV% this season and tonight will be his third home start. Tonight he faces a Flyers team that has gone 4-2-0 while averaging 3.00 goals per game in their last six.

Vasilevskiy allowed one goal on eight shots after replacing the injured Ben Bishop in the Lightning’s win last night. It will be Vasilevskiy’s first start since November 27th, when he gave up four on 33 in a loss in Washington. Valiseskiy is 2-3-0 with a 2.55 GAA and .917 SV% in five starts this season.

Elliott stopped all eight shots that he faced after replacing Jake Allen in the Blues loss to the Panthers on Tuesday. Elliott has fallen behind Allen on the depth chart, but he’s played well in his limited action this season—he is 4-2-1 with a 2.59 GAA and .903 SV% in seven starts this season. He had a tough outing against the Islanders earlier in the year. He allowed three goals on 22 shots in a 3-2 loss back in October.

Vasilevskiy allowed one goal on 20 shots in the Lightning’s loss in Florida on November 16th. Vasilevskiy has won two of four while posting a 2.03 GAA and .929 SV% this season. He draws a terrible matchup in Washington.

Girgensons remains day-to-day with an upper-body injury and will miss his fourth consecutive game tonight vs. the Blues.

Girgensons was held out of the lineup on Tuesday and is expected to miss at least the next two games with an undisclosed injury. With Girgensons out, look for Tim Schaller to remain in the lineup.

Elliott allowed two goals on 16 shots after replacing Jake Allen in the Blues’ loss in New Your last Thursday. Jake Allen has taken over the starting job, but he started last night, so the Blues will go with Elliott tonight in Columbus. The Blue Jackets have won four of six, but Elliott needs a good outing if he’s going to play more games.

Girgensons missed Monday’s practice and was not on the ice for the Sabres’ morning skate which suggests that he will not be in the lineup tonight vs. the Stars. If Girgensons can’t go, look for Tim Schaller to get back into the lineup.
