High Salary G

Corey Crawford-Chicago Blackhawks($8,300): Crawford got the night off on Friday so he’ll be well-rested for tonight’s game with St. Louis. He had a nine-game win streak snapped in his last start but will look to start a new one against the Blues. Crawford is easily one of the best goalies in the entire NHL and is the top option in net tonight. It will cost you to drat him, but he’s a solid pick, something that you need in fantasy hockey. Save money elsewhere and take Crawford tonight.

Henrik Lundqvist-New York Rangers ($8,000): Lundqvist had a strong showing on Friday, stopping 30 of the 31 shots he faced in a win over Carolina. Despite struggling at times this season, Lundqvist is still an elite goalie and makes for a great fantasy option on most nights. He has now won his last three starts and has four wins in his last five games. Hegets a good opportunity for another win tonight in Ottawa. The Senators have not been struggling lately and enter with a two-game losing streak. If you’re looking to use a high-priced goalie option tonight then look no further than Lundqvist.

High Value G

Karri Ramo-Calgary Flames ($7,400): Ramo is the confirmed starter in net for the Flames tonight when they take on Carolina. He’s been hot and cold this season but has proven to be a fantasy asset when he’s on his game. He picked up a win his last time out when he stopped 27 of 29 shots against Columbus. Tonight’s road game in Carolina shouldn’t prove too tough, as the Hurricanes are ranked 26th in the NHL with an average of 2.3 goals per game. Calgary is a good, young team that has been a bit of a surprise this season. Several Flames have favorable matchups tonight, meaning there should be some nice goal support for the netminder. Ramo makes for a nice pick at goalie for your lineup.
