After Thomas Greiss got the start last night and lost 6-2 to the Blue Jacket it is no surprise that the Sharks are going back to their #1 tonight. In Niemi's last start he did something you don't see very often, when he posted a shutout and still lost 1-0 in a shootout. However after a hot-start to the season the Sharks have lost 5 straight.

Niemi is coming off of a tough loss at home to the Blackhawks and hopes to get back on track against a Phoenix team who was blown out against the Hawks.

Niemi has 5-2-1 record with a 2.64 GAA and .920 SV% against his former team the Blackhawks. He comes into tonight's game having lost his first game of the season in his last outing. He is still 6-0-1 with a 1.80 GAA and .936 SV%, so it would be tough not to play him at this point.

Niemi has been a fantasy stud so far this season. He is 6-0-0 with a 1.95 GAA and .933 SV%. With as hot as the Sharks have been this season Niemi is a must start in all fantasy formats.

Niemi and the Sharks will put their undefeated record on the line tonight against the Predators. Niemi has been a fantasy stud so far this season. He is 6-0-0 with a 1.95 GAA and .933 SV%. With as hot as the Sharks have been this season Niemi is a must start in all fantasy formats.
