Fleury made 31 saves on 34 shots in the Penguins’ 3-0 loss to the Capitals on Saturday. That is three straight losses and three straight games allowing three goals.

He is 2-0-0 with a 1.50 GAA and .938 SV% vs. the Devils.

Brodin will not play tonight after being injured in Saturday’s game. However, he says he is feeling much better and that Wednesday vs. the Blue Jackets is a possibility.
Foligno underwent surgery on his injured hand and will miss another month and a half.
Brodin suffered an upper-body injury in Saturday’s game and did not return. After the game coach Mike Yeo said he is out indefinitely, so he will obviously not be in the lineup on Monday vs. the Jets.

This is a crazy situation. Originally Greiss had been the scheduled starter with Fleury being tested for mumps. Fleury's tests came back negative and was cleared to play tonight. Now Greiss is being tested for mumps and is in isolation, which leaves Fleury to start tonight with Jeff Zatkoff as his backup.
Thomas Greiss had been announced as the Penguins starter when Fleury was expected to be out. Now that Fleury has been cleared to play, we will see if this changes the starting goalie situation. Either way this is excellent news for the Penguins.
The Penguins are testing three more players for mumps, one of which is Fleury. The Pens recalled Jeff Zatkoff this afternoon, which suggests that Fleury won’t be available tomorrow vs. the Avalanche. Expect Thomas Greiss to get the start and Zatkoff to be the back-up.
As of right now, the Wild say that Spurgeon will miss his second straight game with a stomach illness. Coach Mike Yeo is expected to address the media at 6:30 PM ET, where Spurgeon will officially be ruled in or out. If Spurgeon can’t go, Stu Bickel will stay in the lineup.
Fleury stopped 26 of 27 shots in the Penguins win over the Flames on Friday. He was given Saturday night off, but will be back in goal tonight vs. the Lightning. It is a meeting between the second and third best offences in the league, so this one could be a high-scoring affair.
