Right when Fleury started started to lose some starts to Vokoun he found his game. This will be his third consecutive and 4th start in the Penguins last 5. He deserves the start since he has won 3 straight posting 1.67 GAA and .933 SV% in those contests. Fleury is one of the NHL's best netminders and you play him whenever he plays.
Fleury played well enough against the Islanders to earn him his second straight start tonight. He has now won each of his last two starts posting a 1.50 GAA and .940 SV%. Looks like he is back on track and is going to need to keep it up if he wants to keep his #1 job, because Vokoun is playing great.
Spurgeon who was just recently placed on IR missed another practice today. No timetable has been set for his return. Jonas Brodin will continue to play alongside Ryan Suter while Spurgeon is out.
Fleury wasn't busy in his last start against the Devils only making 15 saves on 16 shots. He has been alternating starts with Vokoun this season and has actually been outplayed by the veteran Vokoun. Fleury goes up against the Islanders who he allowed 4 goals on 17 shots on January 29.
Fleury is coming off of his worst performance of the season and if Vokoun keeps playing the way he has been playing Fleury is going to continue to lose starts. Fleury better pick his play up before he is the #2 in Pittsburgh.
Tonight will mark the 5th straight game that Spurgeon has missed. However being back skating is a good sign that his return is not far off.
Brodin has only played two games in his NHL career and he is already being moved up to the Wild's top pair in the absence of Jared Spurgeon. If Brodin can play well while Spurgeon is out of the lineup he could stay on that top pair in the future.
MJ90 isn't fantasy relevant until he gets back into the Capitals lineup and proves he can stay there.
Fleury had been alternating starts with Vokoun but it looks like Fleury still remains the #1 goalie in Pittsburgh as he will get his first back-to-back start of the year tonight against the Islanders. Fleury is a great start because the Penguins can score with the best of them. Start him with confidence.
Johansson has 0 points and is a -5 in 4 games this season, which could be the reason for the drop from the first line to healthy scratch in one week.
Spurgeon was expected to take a big step forward this year as he is paired with Ryan Suter, but so far 1 assist and a -3 in three games isn't the start fantasy owners were looking for. Spurgeon shouldn't be out too long though so don't give up on the young defenceman.
After starting the season with 2 straight wins the Pens have now lost 2 straight and will look to Fleury to get them back on track in Ottawa. Fleury struggled against the Maple Leafs on Wednesday giving up 5 goals on 24 shots. You should be able to start Fleury with confidence.
As expected the Penguins are off to a hot start this season winning both their first two games. Fleury was great in the season opener against the Flyers and should continue his strong play tonight against the Maple Leafs. Start with confidence.
Fleury and Vokoun will split the weekend games for the Pens.
Johansson has a chance to have a good season. If Johansson can stick with Oveckin and Backstrom he could be a good addition to your fantasy team.
Johansson gets another crack at the top line. In his third season, MJ hopes to improve on the 46 points in 80 games he earned last season.
Expect Bogosian to rejoin the Jets partway through the season.
Fleury and the Pens look to continue the momentum for Game 6.
No surprise Pens go back to Fleury after getting the win in Game 4.
Despite a 10.20 GAA and .798 SV%, Fleury will start for the 0-3 Pens.
