On every game day this season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy managers to stream or roster for the rest of the season. The recommended players and goalies are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues and can be selected in standard fantasy leagues and/or for daily fantasy games.
5 games on Wednesday, November 5
* = confirmed
Vitek Vanejek, UTAH at Anthony Stolarz, TOR (7 p.m. ET)
Jordan Binnington, STL at Logan Thompson, WAS (7:30 p.m. ET)
Jet Greaves, CLM at Dustin Wolf, CGY (9:30 p.m. ET)
Spencer Knight, CHI at Thatcher Demko, VAN (10 p.m. ET)
Yaroslav Askarov, SJ at Joey Daccord, SEA (10 p.m. ET)
Goalies:
Logan Thompson, WAS vs. STL (96% rostered) - FanDuel - $8,000
Either Thompson or Charlie Lindgren will start this first game of back-to-back contests. Thompson comes in off two losses in a row. Despite those defeats, Thompson still has posted a 5-3-0 record with a 1.51 GAA and a .935 save percentage over eight starts. His early play this season is showing that his 2024-25 numbers, where he went 31-6-6 with a 2.49 GAA and a .910 save percentage over 43 appearances, was not a fluke.
Jet Greaves, CLM @ CGY (33% rostered) - FanDuel - $7,500
Columbus is rotating Greaves and Elvis Merzlikins in net with both goalies off to a solid start. Greaves is projected to be between the pipes against the Flames. He has gone 3-3-0 this season but has won his last two starts, posting a .935 save percentage in that stretch. Graves has carried over his strong play from down the stretch last season, providing he is worthy of the additional outings.
Joey Daccord, SEA vs. SJ (81% rostered) - FanDuel - $8,400
Daccord might not start this contest against the Sharks after being between the pipes five games in a row. In that span, Daccord is 3-0-2 with a 1.98 goals-against average (GAA) and .930 save percentage. If Daccord gets the day off, Philipp Grubauer is the likely starter. Daccord has made the Mammoth look good for signing him to a five-year, $125 million deal in October of 2024
