Varlamov became the first goalie to beat the Blackhawks in regulation this season when the Avs beat them 6-2 on Friday. He is 1-1-1- with a 2.31 GAA and .921 SV% so far in March and will look to better those numbers tonight vs. San Jose. He has two starts vs. the Sharks already this season going 0-1-1 with a 3.43 GAA and .910 SV%.
Varlamov has lost four of his last five starts posting a 2.93 GAA and .904 SV%. He has the toughest matchup possible tonight against the Blackhawks, but they have to lose in regulation eventually... Could Varly be the one to do it? Erik Johnson is back tonight and Ryan O'Reilly has a few games under his belt now, why can't it be Colorado? That being said you would be rolling the dice if you start Varlamov tonight.
Varlamov is 6-8-3 with a 2.79 GAA and .910 SV% this season. He has a very tough matchup vs. the Blackhawks on Wednesday. I would look elsewhere.
Varlamov is 6-8-2 with a 2.84 GAA and .908 SV% this season.
With Giguere out on bereavement, Varlamov is the expected starter.
Varlamov played great stopping 39 of 41 shots he faced vs. San Jose on Tuesday but still lost in a shootout. He will face a weak Flames team tonight so he should make for a pretty good start. He sees a lot of rubber so his SV% will be good on most nights, it is his GAA that is worrisome.
Varlamov comes in having won two of his last five while posting a 3.31 GAA and .907 SV%. Colorado is 28th in the NHL at 7-8-2 so Varlamov is not a very good fantasy option. The Avalanche need the offense to be better, the defence to be better and Varly to be better if they're going to have any success.
Varlamov has won his last two starts, including a shutout against the Blues
Varlamov has not been good as of late. He has given up 19 goals in his last 5 starts, which has only resulted in one win. And even in the win he gave up five goals in a 6-5 win, where the Avalanche scored a goal on a horrible missed offside call. He doesn't have a good matchup tonight either as the Avs take on the Blues.
Varlamov got peppered by the Oilers in his last outing giving up 5 goals on 55 shots. He still posted a .909 SV% but giving up 55 shots is not going to get the job done. Varlamov has a decent matchup today vs. Nashville especially since Pekka Rinne will be on the bench and Chris Mason will start.
Varlamov has lost 3 straight and gave up 3 goals in each game. The Avalanche are banged up and are struggling right now. They will take on the Oilers who with all their talent are also having a hard time scoring. Varlamov is a #2 fantasy option at this point.
Varlamov has played well this season although it doesn't show in his win total. He is 3-6-0 with a 2.55 GAA and a .910 SV%, but the Avalanche offense is struggling to score with all the injuries they've had (25th in the NHL in GF per game w/ 2.10). Varlamov has a solid match-up tonight against a Coyotes team who is 20th in the NHL in scoring.
Varlamov has started all but 1 game so far this season for the Avs and will get the call tonight vs. Anaheim. He has struggled as of late losing 4 of his last 5 (allowed 14 goals in those 4 losses). Things don't get any easier for him tonight as the Ducks come in on a 3 game winning streak.
Varlamov is 3-4-0 with a 2.41 GAA and .919 SV% so far this season. The Avs are banged up at forward and are having a hard time finding the back of the net. The Avs and Stars are very similar teams so it's a good matchup both ways.
Varlamov is 3-4-0 with a 2.41 GAA and .919 SV% so far this season. The Avs are banged up at forward and are having a hard time finding the back of the net. The Avs and Stars are very similar teams so it's a good matchup both ways.
Varlamov is coming into today's game having lost his last 3 starts and with the Avalanche riddled with injuries. Most importantly their captain Gabriel Landeskog. The matchup isn't great either as they take on a young electric Oilers team.
This marks Varlamov's 6th straight start this season. The Avalanche will be without their captain Gabriel Landeskog for the second game in a row. He has 2 wins in 5 starts with a 2.59 GAA and .919 SV% and will take on an always tough Canucks team tonight.
Varlamov was pulled in his last outing, he has two great games sandwiched between two bad performances. Varlamov is going to need to find some consistency before being a reliable #1 fantasy option.
Varlamov is off to a good start this season with a 2-1 record to go along with a 1.68 GAA and .948 SV%. The Avalanche are a tough team to gauge, but if Varlamov continues to play well he could be a solid fantasy option. He has a tough matchup tonight however facing one of the leagues hottest teams in San Jose.
CBJ is always a good matchup for opposing tenders.
