As one would expect, Antti Niemi gets the nod in goal for the Sharks.

Niemi went 1-2-0 with a 2.96 GAA and .885 SV% last week. He will get the start tonight vs. a Ducks team who is going to be playing hard after being swept in a weekend series by the Red Wings. Not the best matchup for Niemi.

Niemi starting tonight vs. Colorado, McLellan confirms. #sjsharks

Niemi was pulled after giving up three goals on 28 shots in yesterday's game. David Perron flattened Niemi with about five minutes to go in the second period, but it appears as if he is fine and will be able to go today. Niemi has a pretty tough matchup against an Avalanche team that has played well lately including a 6-2 win vs. Chicago.

It’s a near certainty that Niemi, so long as he’s healthy, will return to the net against Colorado on Sunday.

Niemi will start tonight for the Sharks.

Niemi has won two straight games with a 1.45 GAA and .947 SV% and will be back between the pipes today vs. Jake Allen and the Blues. The Blues have been inconsistent lately so it could be a good matchup for Niemi, but it could be a terrible matchup just as easily.

Niemi is your Sharks starter tonight.

NIemi stopped 18 of 19 shots that he faced in a 2-1 win over Nashville on Saturday. He will be back between the pipes tonight when San Jose faces Vancouver. It is a tough matchup on paper but the Canucks have lost three of their last four games. Niemi has outstanding numbers (1.83 GAA and .934 SV%) so he remains a great fantasy option

Niemi gets the nod for the Sharks.

Niemi allowed only one goal on 33 shots but still didn't get the win as the Sharks lost in a shootout to the Red Wings. The Sharks are having a hard time scoring and it won't get any easier as they will likely face Pekka Rinne tonight. Niemi should be able to post good numbers against a Predators team who's offense isn't playing well either.
