High Salary Goalies

Roberto Luongo – Florida Panthers ($8,100): Luongo has been struggling a bit lately but he should be a great option tonight against the slumping Jets. He has a .924 save percentage with a 2.32 GAA and 24 wins this season. Over his last 10 games, Roberto Luongo has allowed 2.99 goals per game with a .912 save percentage. The Panthers netminder averages 4.9 fantasy hockey points per game.

Brian Elliott – St. Louis Blues ($8,500): Elliott is smoking hot right now. Brian Elliott has a .955 save percentage and a 1.38 goals against average over his last 10 games. He only has six wins during that span but it’s obviously not his fault. On the season, Elliott has a 1.99 GAA with a .934 save percentage and 16 wins. Brian Elliott goes tonight against the Coyotes. Elliott averages 4.9 fantasy points per game (including 6.5 per game over his last 10 games).

Braden Holtby – Washington Capitals ($8,600): Holtby hasn’t been quite his usual self as of late, but he should be a strong option tonight against the Devils who just played on Friday. Over his last 10 games, Holtby has a .900 save percentage while allowing three goals per game. Despite that, he does have seven wins. Holtby has a .924 save percentage with a 2.19 GAA and 36 wins this season. Expect him to have a strong outing tonight. He averages 5.3 fantasy hockey points per game.

High Value Goalies

Calvin Pickard – Colorado Avalanche ($6,800): Pickard will get the start for Colorado tonight as they take on the Oilers. He could be a great value option for tonight’s game if you’re looking for a cheap goalie. Pickard has a .917 save percentage with a 2.75 GAA and a 3-3-1 record. Over his last 10 games, he has a .924 save percentage. He averages 3.5 fantasy points per game.
