Niemi has won two straight games with a 1.45 GAA and .947 SV% and will be back between the pipes today vs. Jake Allen and the Blues. The Blues have been inconsistent lately so it could be a good matchup for Niemi, but it could be a terrible matchup just as easily.

NIemi stopped 18 of 19 shots that he faced in a 2-1 win over Nashville on Saturday. He will be back between the pipes tonight when San Jose faces Vancouver. It is a tough matchup on paper but the Canucks have lost three of their last four games. Niemi has outstanding numbers (1.83 GAA and .934 SV%) so he remains a great fantasy option

NIemi stopped 18 of 19 shots that he faced in a 2-1 win over Nashville on Saturday. He will likely be back between the pipes tonight when San Jose faces Vancouver. It is a tough matchup on paper for Niemi but the Canucks have lost three of their last four games. Niemi still has outstanding numbers (1.83 GAA and .934 SV%) so he remains a great fantasy option.

Niemi allowed only one goal on 33 shots but still didn't get the win as the Sharks lost in a shootout to the Red Wings. The Sharks are having a hard time scoring and it won't get any easier as they will likely face Pekka Rinne tonight. Niemi should be able to post good numbers against a Predators team who's offense isn't playing well either.
