Vasilevskiy made 32 saves in a 3-0 win over Washington on Saturday.

Vasilevskiy goalied the Capitals on Saturday, earning his first shutout of the season and the 35th of his career. He was the game's first star for the effort. Vasilevskiy got his first win in four games after losses to Ottawa, Toronto and Minnesota.

Ingram made 20 saves in a 3-2 loss to the Kings on Saturday.

Ingram has struggled this season to find the form that made him a fantasy darling and Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy winner last year. Since Opening Night, he has allowed four or more goals four times in six outings. Despite a 4-2-1 record, Ingram sports a 3.71 GAA and an .862 save percentage. Those ratios are a fantasy anchor, so deploy him carefully.

Nedeljkovic will guard the road goal versus the Canucks on Saturday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.

Nedeljkovic unsurprisingly gets this start after Joel Blomqvist stopped 46 of 50 shots Friday versus the Oilers. The 28-year-old Nedeljkovic has gone 0-1-1 with eight goals allowed on 61 shots over his first two outings of the campaign, which makes him a risky option behind a leaky and tired defense.

Gustavsson permitted six goals on 22 shots in Saturday's 7-5 loss to the Flyers. The seventh goal was an empty-netter.

Gustavsson had been outstanding before Saturday's struggles, posting a 4-0-1 record with a sparkling 1.40 GAA and a superb .952 save percentage in five outings. He will look to bounce back in his next start, which could come Tuesday in Pittsburgh versus the Penguins.

Ersson stopped 21 of 26 shots in a 7-5 win versus Minnesota on Saturday.

Ersson received plenty of offensive support to secure his second win of the season, improving his record to 2-2-1 with a 3.56 GAA and an .872 save percentage through six appearances. Rasmus Ristolainen scored the game-winner for the Flyers at the 17:36 mark of the third period, breaking a 5-5 tie.

Kuemper made 23 saves in a 3-2 win Saturday over Utah.

Kuemper hadn't played since Oct. 14 due to a lower-body injury. He's 2-0-2 with a 3.20 GAA and .890 save percentage, but those ratios were inflated when he allowed eight goals on 41 shots in a wild 8-7 overtime loss to Ottawa. Kuemper is a guy who should excel behind a defensive team-first system in LA. Get him back in your blue paint.

Wedgewood will guard the home goal versus the Blue Jackets on Saturday, Robby Stanley of NHL.com reports.

Wedgewood will draw the start in the second half of a back-to-back after Juuse Saros earned the win Friday over the Blackhawks. The 32-year-old Wedgewood's last game action came Opening Night versus the Stars, and he allowed four goals on 20 shots in that contest. The Blue Jackets have scored 24 goals over six games this season.

Vasilevskiy will protect the home goal in Saturday's game versus the Capitals, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Vasilevskiy has lost his last three starts, allowing 12 goals on 59 shots in that span. The 30-year-old netminder has struggled since opening the season with three straight wins. Washington is a tough matchup after scoring 26 times over six games this season.

Comrie will guard the road goal Saturday against the Flames, per Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan.

During his season debut, Comrie made 39 saves in a 6-3 win over Pittsburgh on Oct. 20. Calgary has registered 25 goals across seven games this season en route to a 5-1-1 record.

Wolf will play between the home pipes in Saturday's game versus the Jets, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

The Flames continue to alternate goalie starts, and it's Wolf's turn after Dan Vladar took a 4-2 loss versus the Hurricanes on Thursday. Wolf has yet to take a loss this year, allowing seven goals on 110 shots. Something will have to give Saturday, as the Jets enter this contest undefeated (7-0-0).
