Dougie draws back into the lineup

Dougie draws back into the lineup

Those counting on the rookie to man the Bruins' powerplay will have to wait until Monday's game as the Bruins prep for a playoff push.

Markstrom allowed six goals on 23 shots in a 7-2 loss to the Jets in Winnipeg. It won't get any easier for the young net-minder tonight as he faces Evgeni Malkin and the Penguins. I don't think it would be a good idea to start him tonight.

We knew McQuaid was going to play but not who was going to come out. Dougie Hamilton will watch tonight from the press box. He has four goals and 11 assists in 39 games.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 31 shots in a loss to Washington last Saturday. He will get the nod against the Jets tonight, which isn't too bad of a matchup for him. However it is hard to trust a Panthers goalie in fantasy, especially given how bad their offense is (23rd in goals/per game).

Allen is not getting as many starts over Elliott now as he did earlier in the season because of Elliott's recent success. Allen will get his seventh start on the road in Columbus on Friday. He is 5-1-0 with a 2.78 GAA and .887 SV% away from St. Louis this season. Don't hesitate to use him as a spot start.

Markstrom has won three straight games with a 2.66 GAA and .925 SV%. In his only start vs. the Caps this season he allowed two goals on the first two shots and was pulled. He will look for a better result this time around, but the Capitals are one of the NHL's hottest teams right now. They have won six out of their last eight games.

Allen gets the call for the second game of a back-to-back. Brian Elliott played well enough yesterday to get the win vs. Chicago. This will be Allen's first start since being recalled, he has a scary matchup vs. a surprising Blue Jackets squad.

Allen has been called up because Jaroslav Halak was hurt in yesterday's game. Allen is 8-3-0 with a 2.45 GAA, .906 SV% and one shutout this season.

Allen, 22, has appeared in 12 games with the Blues this season, posting an 8-3-0 record with a 2.45 goals-against average and a .906 save percentage. In 35 games with the Rivermen, the 6-foot-2, 195-pound goaltender has a record of 13-19-2 with a 2.89 goals against average, .904 save percentage and two shutouts. Allen is obviously the goalie of the future for the Blues, and only holds value in deep-keeper leagues.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 40 shots in a winning effort in his last start vs. the Sabres. He will go head-to-head with Martin Brodeur tonight, so be wary of the matchup.

Markstrom is doing his best Panthers-era Luongo impression, posting mediocre win totals (3 wins in 11 starts) but solid peripherals (2.59 GAA and .921 SV%). He has a nice matchup against a struggling Sabres squad and could make for a good spot start if you're in a pinch.

Allen has not started since last Tuesday when he had his five game winning streak snapped. He should be well rested when he faces the Oilers tonight. It is a good matchup for Allen, so he should make for a good start tonight.

The Islanders added two late empty netters to give them a 3-0 win over the Panthers on Sunday. Markstrom played very well allowing just one goal on 35 shots. He will be back in goal tonight vs. the Maple Leafs.

Markstrom has been solid, giving up just one goal in each of his last two starts.

Tough matchup against Henrik and the Rangers

This will be Markstroms first starts since last Tuesday when he lost his fourth straight start. Since being recalled on March 3rd because of Jose Theodore's injury, Markstrom is 1-3-1 with a 3.41 GAA and .875 SV%. It is hard to trust a Panthers goalie this season, because they can't seem to find wins.

Allen was fantasy gold last week. He went 3-0-0 with a 1.00 GAA, .969 SV% and one shutout. He has a tough matchup vs. the Canucks tomorrow. However given the way he has played since being recalled, he should give the Blues a chance to win.

Allen has been awesome since getting recalled. He is 4-0-0 with a 1.99 GAA and .933 SV% since coming up from Peoria. He has a tough matchup tomorrow against Anaheim.
