Goalies
Arturs Silovs, PIT vs. SJ (13% rostered)
Based on the Pens’ rotation before trading Tristan Jarry, it was Silovs’ turn to start, which means Stuart Skinner may not make his Pens debut until Sunday. The Pens have lost three straight and Silovs has not won a game since Nov. 6, but note the Sharks are not a strong road team (6-9-0) and rank 29th in goals for per game.
Jonas Johansson, TB at NYI (20% rostered)
Johansson was won two straight and allowed seven goals in his past four starts. The Lightning should have the edge in this matchup as the Isles are without Kyle Palmieri and Alex Romanov, who are out for the season, and also Bo Horvat. Ilya Sorokin may steal this game, but otherwise the advantage goes to Johansson and the Bolts for a win.
Jacob Fowler, MTL at NYR (24% rostered)
The Rangers’ struggles at home have been well-documented and Fowler has certainly earned a second straight start following a 36-save win against the Pens. With Sam Montembeault and Jakub Dobes struggling, Fowler represents the Habs’ best chance of winning. The bet here is the superior Habs can provide enough goal support to earn the win even if Fowler doesn’t match his strong performance in his season debut.
John Gibson, DET at CHI (28% rostered)
Either Gibson or Cam Talbot should be worth streaming in this matchup because the Hawks may be without Connor Bedard, who suffered an apparent shoulder injury after taking a faceoff against Brayden Schenn in the final seconds of the third period last night. Without Bedard, the Hawks offense isn’t particularly dangerous, and the Wings will likely face backup Arvid Soderblom, potentially providing Gibson (or Talbot) strong goal support.
