Kumeper appears to be in line to start again on Saturday.

Kuemper stopped 33 of 34 shots in a win over the Blackhawks on Thursday. It was another great performance from the 23-year-old backstop. The win moved him to 5-2-0 with a 1.68 GAA and .946 SV% in seven starts since being recalled. With Josh Harding out for the foreseeable future, Kuemper is expected to remain fantasy relevant.

Kuemper leads the Wild onto the ice for warmups; he starts.

Kuemper allowed four goals on 36 shots in a 4-0 loss to the Stars on Tuesday. The Wild struggled to muster any offence throughout which ultimately spelled disaster for Kuemper. He comes into play on Thursday with a 4-2-0 record, 1.80 GAA and .941 SV% in January, but he draws a scary matchup vs. the Blackhawks.

Kuemper will start on Tuesday.

Kuemper allowed two goals on 35 shots in a win over the Stars on Saturday. Kuemper is 4-1-0 with 1.37 GAA and .954 SV% since his recall and will face the Stars again on Tuesday. With Dallas in a huge slump right now Kuemper should make for another strong start.

Darcy Kuemper starts in net tonight.

Kuemper allowed three goals on 32 shots in a shootout loss against the Senators on Tuesday. Regardless of the loss, this marks three straight good games for Kuemper. Tonight he will take on an Oilers team who have lost seven of their last nine games and will have their new goalie in between the pipes tonight.

Kuemper back in goal for the Wild.

Kuemper stopped all 23 shots that he faced in a 4-0 win over the Predators on Sunday. In two starts since being recalled, Kuemper has allowed one goal on 62 shots (0.48 GAA / .984 SV%). Despite how good Josh Harding has been this season, Kuemper and Niklas Backstrom are more than picking up the slack. Tonight Kuemper faces the Senators who have won five of their last six games.

Kuemper will start in goal for the Wild.

Kuemper has started one game and has one relief effort this season, in those two games he is 0-1-0 with a 6.13 GAA and .625 SV%… Yep. In the AHL he is 7-10-0 with a 2.47 GAA and .929 SV%. Obviously it is a small sample size for his NHL performances this season, but the matchup with the Kings is an ugly one.

Edler (knee) took part in the Canucks game-day skate.

Edler has been out since December 3, but his presence at the morning skate suggests that he could return this evening. However it seems very unlikely that he will play tonight, Edler appears to be getting close to returning to the blueline. He has had a bad year posting three goals and six assists with a minus-12 rating in 27 games.

The Senators have recalled Cody Ceci and he will make his NHL debut tonight.

Ceci was the 15th overall pick in the 2012 NHL Draft. The 19-year-old is in his first full season with Binghamton and has two goals and 15 assists in 24 games. He is a great defensive prospect and is known for both his offensive and defensive prowess. He is a great power-play guy, but likely won't be with the Senators long enough to garner fantasy value. He will play for Marc Methout, who is out with the flu.

The Penguins have recalled Brian Dumoulin from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL).

Dumoulin was the 51st overall pick by the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2009 NHL Draft. He is currently in his second year with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins (AHL) after spending three years at Boston College. The 6-foot-3, 200 lbs. defenseman has one goal and five assists in 22 games this season. With Pittsburgh down three starting D-men, Dumoulin could make his NHL debut tonight.

Kuemper was originally scheduled to start tonight, but with Josh Harding getting pulled last night things might change. After the Wild play Wednesday night, they are off until Saturday. Because of the time without a game, they might decide to start Harding on Wednesday over Kuemper.

It says "Probable" but that is not the case, we will update when the Wild confirm Harding or Kuemper. This is simply an heads up.
