THE GOALIE EDGE - 10/10/2013 The Devils continue their Western Canada swing with a game against the Calgary Flames. Although the Flames have been playing well so far this season, look for the Devils, behind Martin Brodeur, to get their first win of the season.  Joey Macdonald's numbers aren't that impressive at 3.30 GA and .895 SP and neither are Brodeur's, but New Jersey needs to win here....Kevin Poulin will get his first start of the season for the NY Islanders but it is coming against Nikolai Khabibulin and the Chicago Blackhawks.  The Bulin Wall had decent numbers with Edmonton last year and can still play.  Nabokov is off to a good start but the Isles decided it was time to give Poulin the nod.   Look for this to be a battle as the Islanders will bring their high-octane offense to Chicago but the nod goes to the hometown team....Steve Mason has carried over his fine play from the end of last season so the Flyers should prevail over a tired Phoenix Coyotes squad who played last night against Detroit.  No confirmation on the Coyotes goaltender yet....Jeff Zatkoff gets his NHL debut tonight against the Florida Panthers.  Zatkoff had excellent numbers last season with the Wilkes Barre/Scranton Penguins, going 26-20-0 with a 1.93 GAA and .920 SP.  Still, this is his first start in the big leagues.  Look for Scott Clemmensen to start between the pipes for Florida.  Jacob Markstrom will be playing on back-to-back nights if he starts....Jonathan Quick and Cam Ward are struggling at the start of the season and tonight, both will face each other.  The question is, who will right their season, and who will have to wait another day?  Both have GAAs of over 3.00 with Ward closer to 4.00.  My vote is on Quick and the LA Kings who had a night off yesterday while the Canes edged the Washington Caps....Dallas at Winnipeg doesn't have that sexy appeal as other matchups, but Kari Lehtonen and Ondrej Pavelec can play at elite levels, they are just not consistent at it. Evenly matched but side with the home team Jets. FANTASY MUST-STARTS Steve Mason, Phoenix vs. Philadelphia Jonathan Quick, Los Angeles vs. Carolina SLEEPER ALERT None.
