Lack will be in the crease for Saturday's matinee tilt with the Jets. Lack has given up three or four goals in four of his last five starts, making him something of a dicey activation heading into Saturday. The Canucks still appear to be on solid ground for a playoff spot, but Lack's run as the Canucks' No. 1 goalie could come to an end with the regular season. Ryan Miller returned to practice Friday and appears to be on track to play during the postseason, and by virtue of his larger contract, he figures to inherit the starting job back once he becomes healthy.

Lack made 35 saves on 38 shots, but took a 3-1 loss to Vancouver on Thursday. Despite a solid night's work, Lack's two-game winning streak came to an end. Nonetheless, he's been a steadying presence in net for the Canucks lately, with save marks of .900 or over in 12 of his last 15 outings. However, Ryan Miller (knee) is returning to practice with the team on Friday, so Lack's run coudl be coming to an end soon.

Lack has been confirmed as the starter in goal for Thursday's game against the Blackhawks. As expected, Lack will get the nod for the 21st time in the Canucks' 22 games. He's won both of his previous two career appearances against the Blackhawks, posting a 2.85 GAA and .910 save percentage in those matches.

Lack is expected to make the start in goal Thursday against the Blackhawks, Jon Abbott of TSN 1040 reports. Lack is lined up for a sixth straight start after leading the Canucks to wins in three of his previous five appearances. His ratios have begun to deflate a bit over his last few outings, but with a 16-11-4 record, 2.48 GAA, and .919 save percentage on the season, he still looks to be a solid middle-tier fantasy option in goal.

Lack made 34 saves on 38 shots and came away with 5-4 shootout victory over Nashville on Tuesday. It's not the most impressive outing, but Lack was under fire, facing 13 more shots than Pekka Rinne had to on the other end. It still adds up to his second consecutive win, and he's 6-2-1 over his last nine starts, providing the Canucks with reliable netminding work in the continued absence of Ryan Miller.

Lack will start for the second straight night Tuesday against the Predators. A road matchup against one of the league's best teams in Nashville might seem daunting to most goaltenders, but Lack has thrived in such circumstances this season. In his 18 outings away from Rogers Arena this season, Lack is 7-4-2 with a 2.40 GAA and .926 save percentage. He bettered those road numbers with a win Monday in St. Louis, during which he turned away 23 of 24 shot attempts.

Lack turned aside 23 of 24 shots in Monday's 4-1 win over the Blues. Lack wasn't as heavily tested as he's been in his last few outings, but the effort was good enough to bounce back from a pair of losses in his previous two starts (allowing seven goals in that span) nonetheless. The 27-year-old has proved to be a reliable replacement with Ryan Miller likely out for the remainder of the regular season as he nurses a knee injury, so he makes for a decent fantasy play whenever he gets the starting nod.

Lack is slated to start Monday's game against the Blues, Dan Murphy of Sportsnet reports. Lack, who will look to help the Canucks bounce back from back-to-back losses to Colorado and Dallas, will take aim Monday at a Blues' squad that has just one win over the team's last five contests.

Lack gave up four goals on 40 shots in Saturday's overtime loss to the Stars. A decent outing for Lack, who has now lost two straight games, surrendering seven goals in that span. The 27-year-old falls to 14-11-4 on the season, but still owns an impressive .919 save percentage and 2.48 GAA. Ryan Miller (knee) appears to be out for the remainder of the regular season, so the Canucks playoff hopes will be riding on Lack. Keep him rolling, as everything is on the line and he should be at his best.

Lack will start Saturday against Dallas. Lack allowed three goals on 37 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to Colorado and will again be in net Saturday. Ryan Miller faced shots Thursday in practice but it's still unlikely that he'll return before the end of the regular season.
