Mrazek will start Sunday vs. the Rangers.

Mrazek allowed two goals on 20 shots in the Hurricanes overtime loss to the Islanders on Thursday. Mrazek was given the Hurricanes’ second game off, but will draw back back between the pipes this afternoon vs. the Rangers. New York has a thin roster but Mrazek is always a risky option.

Mrazek will start Thursday against the Islanders.

Mrazek enjoyed a breakout season during the 2016 season, but has tied for the league’s worst qualified SV% (.901) in 89 games since. With Scott Darling out to start the regular season, Mrazek will get a shot as the Hurricanes’ No.1 right away. He will be playing behind one of the best possession teams in hockey, so he should see less shots than he became accustom to in Detroit.

The Hurricanes have signed Petr Mrazek to a one-year deal worth $1.5M.

Mrazek looked like the goalie of the future in Detroit during the 2016 season, when he was 27-16-6 with a 2.33 GAA and .921 SV%. In the two seasons since, Mrazek is tied with the second-worst SV% (.901) among qualified starters. The Flyers elected not to qualify the 26-year-old, so he lands in Carolina where he will battle with Scott Darling for playing time in the crease.

Mrazek will start Sunday afternoon vs. the Bruins.

Mrazek stopped all 17 shots that he faced after replacing Michal Neuvirth in the Flyers win over the Avalanche on Wednesday. With Neuvirth and Brian Elliott bot on the shelf, the Flyers will continue to roll with the 26-year-old netminder this afternoon. It has been a mixed bag of results for Mrazek since joining the Flyers, going 5-5-0 with a 3.11 GAA, .890 SV% and one shutout overall.

Mrazek will start Tuesday in Detroit.

Mrazek allowed three goals on 28 shots in the Flyers win over the Capitals on Sunday. It hasn’t been all gravy for Mrazek since coming over from Detroit. The 26-year-old has gone 5-5-1 with a 3.14 GAA and .888 SV% in 11 games with the Flyers but he’ll have a good shot at a ‘W’ tonight vs. a Red Wings team that has dropped 10 in a row.

Tonight he faces a Vegas team that is 3-1-0 in their first four games of their current five-game road-trip.
