Niemi will be in the crease in Saturday's road game against the Sharks, Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Niemi hasn't made a start in goal since he surrendered five goals on 36 shots in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Blues on March 12. The 32-year-old netminder will look to pick up his 23rd win of the season Saturday in a decent road matchup with a Sharks team averaging 2.81 goals per game at home this season, 13th in the NHL.
