Dell stopped 32 of 34 shots in Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Dell got no support from his offense, which could be a recurring theme for the rest of the season with Tomas Hertl (knee) out for the year. The 30-year-old goalie has lost three of his last four starts. He's down to 9-10-2 with a 2.82 GAA and a .911 save percentage in 24 appearances. The Sharks face Pacific Division opponents in their next three games -- expect Dell to start at least two of them as the team clings to faint playoff hopes.

Dell will defend the home twine in Saturday's game against the Lightning, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dell continues to work as the Sharks' No. 1 netminder, and he deserves the gig after a strong January during which he posted a 5-3-0 record and .925 save percentage. The 30-year-old has a tough matchup on tap, however, as the Lightning have a 3-1-1 record on their road trip while averaging 3.8 goals per game.

Dell saved 26 of 28 shots in Monday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Dell bounced back after a small skid before the All-Star break. The 30-year-old improved to 9-9-2 with a 2.85 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 23 appearances. Dell has a .919 save percentage in 15 games since the start of December, which indicates his growth in the last two months. He should continue to be the Sharks' primary netminder when healthy.

Dell will patrol the crease for Monday's home tilt against Anaheim, Sharks beat writer Sheng Peng reports.
EDGE Analysis
Before the All-Star break, Dell appeared to take over the No. 1 netminder job in San Jose and it looks like that's still the case for now. After a hot run through December and January, the 30-year-old went into the break on a small skid, allowing four goals in each of his last two outings. Given Martin Jones' struggles this season, Dell should continue getting more of the work if he keeps up this level of play.

Dell surrendered four goals on 39 shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Dell was much busier than Jacob Markstrom at the other end of the rink. He was able to hold off the Canucks for awhile, but eventually succumbed to a second straight defeat. Dell has an 8-9-2 record with a 2.90 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 22 appearances. He's recently taken control of the starting duties in the crease, but with back-to-back poor outings, Martin Jones may get a look after the bye week.

Dell will get the starting nod for Saturday's road contest against the Canucks, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
In his last outing, Dell allowed more than three goals for the first time since Nov. 27. Since the start of December, he's 5-4-2 with a solid 2.48 GAA and .921 save percentage. In his last appearance against Vancouver, Dell earned a win while allowing two goals on 35 shots.

Dell allowed four goals on 38 shots in a 6-3 loss to the Coyotes on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Dell had not given up more than three goals in an appearance since Nov. 27. During that span, he made 12 appearances with a 5-3-2 record and a .924 save percentage. Perhaps the 30-year-old was due for a dud. Dell slipped to 8-8-2 with a 2.84 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 21 games this season. The Sharks continue their road trip against the ever-dangerous Avalanche on Thursday.

Dell will start Tuesday's road showdown against the Coyotes, Alexander Kinkopf of the Coyotes' official website reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dell has been stellar in his past five starts, going 4-1-0 along with a 1.79 GAA and .939 save percentage in that span. He'll face a decent matchup against a Coyotes offense that ranks just 22nd in the league in goals per game this campaign (2.73).

Dell turned aside 27 of 28 shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Dell gave up a power-play goal tipped in by Jamie Benn at 1:32 of the first period, but the goalie was perfect from there. The 30-year-old has won four of his last five starts, including back-to-back games with just one goal allowed. He's at 8-7-2 with a 2.77 GAA and a .910 save percentage in 20 appearances. Dell has won the favor of interim head coach Bob Boughner, and fantasy owners may want to take notice, as well.

Dell will defend the cage against the Stars at home Saturday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dell is coming off a 30-save win over the Blue Jackets, which was clearly enough to convince coach Bob Boughner to give him another game between the pipes. The Alberta native is 3-1-1 in his last five contests with a 2.18 GAA. If the 30-year-old continues to outplay Martin Jones, he could be in line for the No. 1 gig.
