Mrazek made 44 saves on 47 shots in the Red Wings 4-3 win over the Hurricanes last Saturday. Jimmy Howard has started three of the Red Wings first four games, but Mrazek will get the next two. The young netminder will need to bring his A-game tonight as he is expected to go head-to-head with Carey Price, who has yet to lose a game this season.

Mrazek was fantastic after being recalled from Grand Rapids last season positioned a 16-9-2 record, a 2.38 GAA and .918 SV%. Those splits earned him the nod in the postseason where he nearly led the Red Wings to a first round upset of the Tampa Bay Lightning. Mrazek will battle Jimmy Howard for starts this season, but will need a good performance tonight after Howard shutout the Maple Leafs last night.

Mrazek surrendered four goals on 27 shots in the Red Wings 5-2 loss to the Lightning in Game 6. Detroit’s defence did not play well in front of Mrazek and if it weren’t for him the game would have been out of hand early. Tonight he will look to push the Red Wings into the second round, but he will be missing Niklas Kronwall (suspended) and Marek Zidlicky (concussion) in front of him.

Mrazek stopped all 28 shots that he faced to earn his second shutout of the series in the Red Wings 4-0 win in Game 5. Mrazek has posted the fourth best GAA (1.91) and fifth ranked SV% (.937) in the playoffs. Mrazek will look to finish the Lightning off at home—he has a 1.48 GAA and .941 SV% in two starts at Joe Louis Arena.

Mrazek had another shutout going late in Game 4, but the Lightning pushed two passed him in the final six minutes and another in Overtime. He has a 2.43 GAA and .922 SV% in the first four games of the series and will need to turn in another huge performance tonight.

Mrazek stopped all 22 shots that he faced in the Red Wings 3-0 shutout win over the Lightning in Game 3. Mrazek struggled in Game 2, but bounced back with his first career playoff shutout. He will look to put together another great outing and give the Red Wings a 3-1 series lead heading back to Tampa Bay.

Mrazek was yanked after allowing four goals on 18 shots in two periods in the Red Wings 5-1 loss in Game 2. The series now shifts back to Detroit where Mrazek was 5-4-2 with a 2.15 GAA and .922 SV% this season. The Red Wings have struggled in front of Mrazek so far and will need to improve on home ice on Tuesday.

Mrazek was outstanding in his playoff debut. The Lightning dominated the Red Wings, but Mrazek was able to steal game 1 by stopping 44 of 46 shots. The Red Wings will look to have a better effort in game 2, but it would be hard for Mrazek to top his first NHL postseason start.

Mrazek posted a 35-save shutout in the Red Wings 2-0 win over the Hurricanes in the season finale. The shutout put a stamp on Mrazek being the game 1 starter vs. the Lightning. He went 16-9-2 with a 2.38 GAA and .918 SV% with the Red Wings this season. He was pulled in his first start against Tampa Bay, but posted a 23-save shutout in his second.

Mrazek allowed two goals on 28 shots in the Red Wings loss to the Capitals last Sunday. He has lost four in a row while posting a 2.98 GAA and .898 SV%. He has struggled recently, but Jimmy Howard allowed a couple of weak goals on Thursday, so they will go back to Mrazek in the season finale.

Mrazek allowed three goals on 25 shots in the Red Wings 3-2 loss to the Bruins on Thursday. He played well but allowed a softie late in the third. He has one win while posted a 2.48 GAA and .911 SV% in his last five appearances. He has gone 5-3-2 with a 2.16 GAA and .921 SV% in nine starts and two relief appearance at home this season.

Mrazek made 33 saves on 34 shots in the Red Wings 2-1 shootout loss to the Senators on Tuesday. It was a lacklustre effort by the Red Wings, but Mrazek was great, earning him a fourth straight start. He has gone 1-0-1 with a 2.28 GAA and .920 SV% in his previous three starts. Tonight is a massive matchup against the Bruins, who have won three straight.

Mrazek was pulled after allowing four goals on 11 shots in the Red Wings 5-4 loss to the Islanders on Sunday. It was a rough outing after posting a 23-save shutout on Saturday. Mrazek comes into play at 2-2-0 with a 2.53 GAA and .922 SV% in March. Tonight he will face a Senators team who have lost three consecutive games after winning their previous seven.

Mrazek stopped all 23 shots that he faced in the Red Wings 4-0 win over the Lightning yesterday. It was a big win for the Red Wings, who had been struggling mightily heading into Saturday. Mrazek’s shutout earned him the back-to-back start this afternoon vs. the Islanders. New York comes in having lost seven of their last eight games.

Mrazek allowed two goals on 19 shots after replacing Jimmy Howard in the Red Wings 6-4 loss to San Jose on Thursday. Since being recalled, Mrazek has gone 1-2-0 with a 2.29 GAA and .936 SV%. Today he faces a Lightning team who the Red Wings are 0-2-1 against while being outscored 11-5 this season.

Mrazek stopped 42 of 43 shots in the Red Wings 5-1 win over the Penguins on Sunday. The 42 saves is a bit misleading as the Red Wings were in control of this game from start-to-finish. He has been very strong this season going 14-5-1 with a 2.47 GAA and .914 SV% and should make for a nice start tonight vs. a Panthers team he is already 1-0 against this season.

After being sent down in late February, Mrazek went 6-0-1 with a 1.13 GAA, .962 SV% and three shutouts. He is having a remarkable season, having gone 13-5-1 with a 2.55 GAA and .909 SV% with the Red Wings this season. His last NHL start came against the Penguins (who he faces today) and he was pulled after allowing four goals on 17 shots.

Jonas Gustavsson was injured in Sunday’s loss to the Bruins and will not be available for Monday’s game, so Mrazek will be recalled. Mrazek has been great since going to Grand Rapids and now sits 9-2-1 with a 2.06 GAA, .927 SV% and three shutouts in 13 games with GR.

Mrazek, 23, filled in admirably while Jonas Gustavsson was out and then played even better when he became the team’s starter when Jimmy Howard went down. Overall he was 13-5-1 with a 2.55 GAA and .909 SV% in 20 games with the Red Wings. He will be back if another injury happens in the crease and he will definitely have a permanent spot on the team in 2015-16.

Mrazek stopped 22 of 23 shots in the Red Wings 3-1 win over the Coyotes on Saturday. He has won three in a row while posting a 0.67 GAA, .973 GAA and one shutout. He has been red-hot which is why Mike Babcock will go with Mrazek over a healthy Jimmy Howard tonight vs. the Penguins.
