Jonathan Bernier News
Bernier was in the starter's crease at the Red Wings morning skate.

Bernier stopped 42 of 43 shots in the Red Wings' win in Montreal on Saturday. Bernier was absolutely brilliant and earned back-to-back wins for the first time since November 10th/12th. As scary as it might be to start the Red Wings goalie right now, the matchup looks OK. Columbus has lost seven of their last eight road games (1-4-3) while scoring just 2.00 goals per game and they played last night, so the struggling Elvis Merzlikins will be between the pipes for them.

Bernier allowed four goals on 23 shots in the Red Wings' loss to the Penguins last Saturday. Bernier has lost each of his last seven starts and has allowed at least three goals in each game--he's 0-5-1 with a 3.78 GAA and .885 SV% in that span. The Red Wings could be without Dylan Larkin, Anthony Mantha and Andreas Athanasiou up front tonight, so it's hard to envision Bernier giving up less than three goals and getting enough goal support to win.

Bernier allowed four goals on 25 shots in the Red Wings loss to the Islanders on Monday. Bernier has gone 0-4-1 with a 3.63 GAA and .892 SV% in his last six appearances and draws a terrible assignment with the Penguins in town. Bernier has gone 3-3-1 with a 3.35 GAA and .878 SV% on home-ice but isn't a viable option while the Red Wings can't score.

Bernier allowed three goals on 32 shots in the Red Wings 5-2 loss to the Capitals on Saturday. Bernier held his own but the game got out of hand after he was pulled. In his last five outings, Bernier has got 0-3-1 with a 3.55 GAA and .899 SV%. Tonight he faces an Islanders team that is facing some regression. After a lengthy point-streak, they've lost three of their last four (1-2-1) while averaging just 1.00 goals per game.

Bernier allowed three goals on 40 shots after replacing Jimmy Howard in the Red Wings loss to the Maple Leafs on Wednesday. In his last four appearances, Bernier has posted a 3.69 GAA and .898 SV% and things won't get any easier with the Capitals in town on Saturday. They are 5-1-0 while scoring 3.50 goals per game in their last six road games.

Bernier allowed four goals on 33 shots in the Red Wings' loss in New Jersey on Saturday. Bernier has lost three consecutive games while allowing a combined 11 goals on 97 shots (.887 SV%). The Maple Leafs have improved under new head coach Sheldon Keefe and possess plenty of offensive talent, so leave Bernier on the bench/free agency tonight.

Bernier allowed two goals on 19 shots in the Red Wings win over the Golden Knights on Sunday. Bernier has won two straight while stopping 43 of the 47 shots (.915 SV%) that he has faced.

Bernier gave up two goals on 11 shots after replacing Jimmy Howard in the Red Wings blowout loss to Nashville on Monday. In his last five starts and two relief appearances, Bernier has gone 0-4-1 with a 3.85 GAA and .879 SV%. The Red Wings are struggling mightily, so neither of their goalies should be rostered and Bernier especially isn't an option against a Bruins team that has the highest Points% (.800 -- 11-2-2) in the NHL.

Bernier allowed one goal on 12 shots in the Red Wings loss in Carolina last night. With Jimmy Howard stumbling, Bernier will go tonight in Florida and look to snap a four-game personal losing streak. The Panthers currently rank fifth in the league in goal scoring (3.54 GF/gm) so look elsewhere for goalie options tonight.
