Goalies 

Cory Schneider – New Jersey Devils ($7,900): Schneider has been struggling lately, allowing 2.66 goals per game over his last 10 games with a save percentage of just .906. He has just three wins during that time. However, things should change tonight because he goes against the Hurricanes. They’re struggling too. On the season, Schneider has a 26-22-6 record with a .924 save percentage and a 2.18 GAA. He averages 4.7 fantasy hockey points per game.

Craig Anderson – Ottawa Senators ($8,100): Anderson has been extremely solid as of late with seven wins goals, 21 goals allowed, and a .937 save percentage in his last 10 games. He has a .917 save percentage with a 27-20-4 record this season. Anderson goes tonight against the Blues who rank 17th against goalies this year. He averages five fantasy points per game (including 6.6 per game over his last 10 games).

Pekka Rinne – Nashville Predators ($7,900): Rinne has rebounded after an awful cold stretch and has a .924 save percentage in his last 10 games while allowing just 21 goals. He has a 5-3-2 record over that span as well. Rinne should have a good night against a Stars team that just played on Monday. He averages 3.9 fantasy hockey points per game (including 4.9 per game over his last 10 games).

Jaroslav Halak – New York Islanders ($7,700): Halak is expected to start tonight, but has not been confirmed. If he doesn’t start, his backup Thomas Greiss is an excellent option as well. Halak has a 16-13-4 record this season with a 2.28 GAA and a .919 save percentage. He goes tonight against the struggling Vancouver Canucks averaging 4.3 fantasy points per game.
