ALL GOALIES ARE CONFIRMED UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED AT THE TIME OF PRINT
Seven games scheduled in the NHL today. Columbus and the Islanders will start things off with a 1:00 pm game. Sergei Bobrovsky is (CONFIRMED) for the Blue jackets. He has had a good season with 27 wins a 2.47 GA and a .919 SP, but he is only 2-2 in his last 4 games. Evgeni Nabokov has been (CONFIRMED) for New York. Nabokov has had a tough year with a GA of 2.96 and a SP under .900. Have to like Bobrovsky in this one. Brian Elliott is (Confirmed) in goal for St Louis against Pittsburgh. Elliott willl be filling in for Jaroslav Halak who has an injury. He has played really well when he has had the opportunity with a 16-5-2 record and a 2.06 GA. Marc-Andre Fleury (CONFIRMED) will start for the Penguins, and he has had a great year with 34 wins. Have to go with him, although this should be a tough match. Nashville travels to Chicago and a very struggling Pekka Rinne is (LIKELY) in goal for the Predators. In his last 3 games he had 2 losses and was pulled after allowing 4 goals. Cory Crawford is (LIKELY) for the Blackhawks and he has won 4 of his last 5 games. Toronto will go against the Devils, and this is not exactly a heavyweight match as James Reimer will (LIKELY) be in goal for the Leafs, while Cory Schneider has been (CONFIRMED) for New Jersey despite how well Martin Brodeur has been playing lately. Reimer has had atough time this season with a GA of 3.32, and he has lost 4 straight games. Schneider's 2.154 GA is much better, so we would favor him in this game. Ilya Bryzgalov is (LIKELY) in goal in for Minnesota at Detroit. This will be his 4th start since his trade from Edmonton. Jimmy Howard has been (CONFIRMED) for the Red Wings. Howard has won 4 of his last 5 games (CONFIRMED) so go with him. Nathan Lieuwen (CONFIRMED) will start his second NHL game for Buffalo at Vancouver. Eddie Lack has been (CONFIRMED) for the Canucks. He has a losing record on the season, and is 2-2 in his last 4 games, but his GA of 2.34 is pretty good. Please go with Lack in this one. Finally, Florida will visit Anaheim. Dan Ellis has been (CONFIRMED) for the Panthers, and boy has he struggled this year with a 3.24 GA and a .894 SP. Jonas Hiller is (LIKELY) for the Ducks, and while he has had a great season with 27 wins, he has lost 4 of his last 5 games. But you have to go with Hiller.
