NHL Player News

Silovs will start on the road versus the Penguins on Wednesday, Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet reports.

Silovs will start the second half of a back-to-back after Kevin Lankinen made a 32-save performance in a shutout win Tuesday in Boston. The 23-year-old Silovs has allowed at least three goals in four of his five starts this season, so he'll be a risky fantasy play even with a fairly good matchup. The Penguins have averaged 2.52 goals per game in 2024-25.

Korpisalo will protect the road goal versus the Islanders on Wednesday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

Korpisalo earned a 1-0 shutout win over Utah in his previous start, making 22 saves. The 30-year-old will get the second half of a back-to-back after Jeremy Swayman was on the wrong end of a 2-0 result Tuesday. The Bruins have scored just eight goals over their last six games, so Korpisalo will have to be sharp and get better goal support to collect another win.

Martin is set to start at home against the Rangers on Wednesday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

Martin has a 2-2-1 record, 3.40 GAA and .854 save percentage in six appearances in 2024-25. He allowed four goals on 19 shots en route to a 6-4 victory over Dallas in his last start Monday. The Rangers have an impressive 12-7-1 record and rank 11th offensively with 3.35 goals per game, but they're on a three-game losing streak.

Vladar is expected to start on the road against Detroit on Wednesday, according to Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.

Vladar has a 4-4-2 record, 2.67 GAA and .903 save percentage in 10 appearances in 2024-25. He's been used lightly by Calgary recently -- this will be just his second start in the Flames' past six games -- because Dustin Wolf enjoyed a fantastic run from Nov. 11-21 in which he allowed only four goals on 116 shots (.966 save percentage) across four starts. However, Wolf stopped 26 of 30 shots en route to a 4-3 loss to Ottawa on Monday, so perhaps the hot streak is over. The Red Wings are tied for 25th offensively with 2.52 goals per game.

Mrazek will protect the home net against Dallas on Wednesday, according to Greg Boysen of CHGO Sports.

Mrazek is coming off a 34-save effort in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Philadelphia. He has a 6-8-1 record with a 2.68 GAA and a .912 save percentage through 15 appearances this season. Mrazek surrendered three goals on 29 shots in a 4-2 loss to the Stars on Oct. 26, with the fourth tally being an empty-netter. Dallas is tied for seventh in the league with 3.45 goals per game in 2024-25.

Ullmark is expected to start on the road against San Jose on Wednesday, according to TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Ullmark's last win came Nov. 12 against the Maple Leafs, and he's posted a record of 0-3-1 with a 4.27 GAA and an .835 save percentage across four outings since then. The 31-year-old, who was phenomenal through three seasons in Boston, has struggled to help Ottawa. He has a 4-7-1 record, 3.10 GAA and .881 save percentage across 13 appearances in 2024-25. The Sharks are 7-12-5 and have averaged 2.63 goals per game this year, so they're typically a favorable adversary.

Hellebuyck will guard the road goal Wednesday against the Kings, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

Hellebuyck is coming off a 43-save performance in Monday's 4-1 win over Minnesota. He has a 15-2-0 record with three shutouts, a 2.06 GAA and a .929 save percentage across 17 appearances. The Kings sit 17th in the league with 2.95 goals per game in 2024-25.

Blackwood is expected to start at home against Ottawa on Wednesday, per Max Miller of NHL.com.

Blackwood has a 4-7-3 record, 3.07 GAA and .907 save percentage in 14 appearances in 2024-25. He's allowed at least three goals in each of his last three starts. Ottawa ranks 15th offensively with 3.14 goals per game.

Binnington will defend the road net Wednesday against New Jersey, according to Lou Korac of The Hockey News.

Binnington stopped 28 of 30 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Islanders on Saturday during his last outing. He has a 6-9-1 record with a 3.04 GAA and an .891 save percentage through 17 appearances this season. New Jersey ranks sixth in the league with 3.50 goals per game in 2024-25.

Markstrom is expected to start at home against St. Louis on Wednesday, per Lou Korac of The Hockey News.

Markstrom has won five of his past six starts while stopping 137 of 151 shots (.907 save percentage). He's 10-5-1 with a 2.51 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 16 appearances in 2024-25. The Blues rank 28th offensively with 2.48 goals per game.
