Goalies
Jakub Dobes, MTL vs. CBJ (34% rostered) – FanDuel $7,700
A bit of a terrifying matchup considering the Jackets have been a top-five team since Rick Bowness took over, but the Habs are also excellent at home (21-13-2) and won three of their past four. It looks like Dobes is the No. 1 going forward over Jacob Fowler, which gives him significant value for the rest of the season, and he’s posted a .926 SP or better in each of his past three starts.
Jordan Binnington, STL vs. SJ (45% rostered) – FanDuel $7,700
Even with Joel Hofer coming off a shutout, it should be Binnington’s start based on the Blues’ rotation. It’s improbable the Blues make the playoffs but certainly not impossible, and they’ve done a really good job of keeping goals allowed to a minimum lately, allowing two goals or less in 10 of their past 13 games. The Sharks have allowed over five goals per game in their most recent stretch, so it bodes well for Binnington’s goal support.
