Theodore had a strong debut against Carolina, stopping 41 of 42 shots. He gets the nod again but expect Clemmensen to get his fair share of starts as well.
Nabokov played wiell in the season opener against the Devils, stopping 26 of the 28 shots he faced. However the Isles are soft on defense and aren't expected to win many games this season, which really handicaps Nabokov's fantasy value.
Bobrovsky isn't officially the #1 in Columbus yet but after making 32 saves in Nashville for the Shootout win, and now the Blue Jackets going back to him today.... Looks like he is well on his way. CBJ needs to keep winning to make Bobrovsky fantasy relevant, but keep an eye on him.
Scrivens won in his first action of the season, 2-1 over the Habs. If he can get a couple of more wins and possibly solidify the #1 position in Toronto he'd be much more fantasy worthy. Until then its hard to recommend him as a fantasy starter.
Lindback made 27 saves on 30 shots in his Lightning debut, earning the win against Washington. A solid first game for Lindback, and as long as Tampa Bay is scoring goals , he should have no problem putting together some wins.
Halak wasn't very busy in his first action of the year and got off to a hot start posting a shutout in a 6-0 rout over the Red Wings. St Louis is one of the best defensive teams in the league and Halak should continue to post great numbers as long as he starts.
Smith has allowed 10 goals on 57 shots in his two starts of the young season much to the disappointment of his fantasy owners who drafted him among the top goaltenders available.
After losing to Dallas yesterday, it looks like the Coyotes will go back to Smith tonight versus the Blackhawks. If Smith can play like he did last season he would be a good fantasy option yet again.
Niemi is expected to carry the load for the Sharks this season. He has been a solid fantasy option over the years and that should continue behind a consistent San Jose team
After losing to Dallas yesterday, it looks like the Coyotes will go back to Smith tonight versus the Blackhawks. If Smith can play like he did last season he would be a good fantasy option yet again.
Emery will get his first start of the year, but doesn't hold much fantasy value as a backup.
Howard got beat up on Saturday against the Blues, but it wasn't because of his poor play. He had no defensive support and should bounce back against Columbus.
The Oilers are one of the more intriguing teams heading into this season, if their young talent can produce on a regular basis Dubnyk could become a good fantasy option.
Luongo entered the game last night for a struggling Cory Schneider. Both goalies have fantasy value but they limit each other. It would be a good idea to have both guys as long as they play on the same team. Looks like a Halak-Elliott time-share in the making.
With Lehtonen getting the start for the Stars last night it appears like Nihlstorp will get his first NHL start after going 16-10 in the AHL during the lockout. He doesn't have much fantasy value as an NHL backup
Anderson got off to a good start to the year with a win in Winnipeg. Ottawa thinks they're going to make some noise this season, for that to happen they need Anderson to play well. He could become a good fantasy option.
Lundqvist and the Rangers lost to the Bruins in their season opener, come home Sunday to face the Penguins. Lundqvist is as good as it gets in terms of fantasy goalies. He is a must start in all formats.
Lupul showed good chemistry with his line mate Phil Kessel last season which lead to 67 points in 66 games. Lupul has the potential to produce at a point-per-game pace again this season.
Leino needs to prove to fantasy owners that he can score at this level before he becomes fantasy relevant.
Harding will get the start after Backstrom got the win yesterday against the Avalanche. Harding won't really be fantasy relevant unless Backstrom goes down with an injury. He is a good goalie but he is still a backup goalie.
