It was a big night in the NHL yesterday with eleven games played. First some individual news; Buffalo goaltender Ryan Miller sat out last night's game against Pittsburgh with a lower body injury. He is considered day to day....Columbus forward Cam Atkinson has been promoted to the top line, and he will play with Marian Gaborik and Brandon Dubinsky. Marc-Andre Fleury continues his good start allowing only 1 goal last night with 20 saves against the Sabres. Fleury has given up only one goal in two games. While they were admittedly against two teams that will likely struggle to score goals this season, New Jersey and Buffalo, still he looks good....Florida goaltender Tim Thomas came back to earth yesterday as he allowed 5 goals on 28 shots against the Blues. He was replaced by Jacob Markstrom who was no better giving up 2 goals on 6 shots. Thomas will quickly discover that the Florida defense is not comparable to the Bruins.  And The Children Shall Lead Them: Last year young Montreal center Brendan Gallagher started on the top line between Max Pacioretty and David Desharnais. This year he finds himself on a line with two other youngsters, Lars Eller and Alex Galchenyuk. Last night this line was pure magic as they combined for six points against the Flyers, with each player getting two points.  Gallagher didn't quite fit in last year on the top line, but he looks right at home with his young linemates.  Keep an eye on this line as they could really develop into something special.  They are all young and very talented. Wild Night In Minnesota: It was a wild game in Minnesota last night as the Ducks prevailed in overtime on a last second goal by Mathieu Perreault with literally only 5 seconds left in OT. Perrault had the goal and an assist, but he is not really fantasy worthy.  The good news for the Wild was that their top line was outstanding all game long.  Winger Zach Parise had two goals, while Jason Pominville had a power play goal, and Mikko Koivu had an assist.   This could develop into one of the top lines in the NHL.  Unfortunately for the Wild they do not have a lot of scoring depth behind this line. Other Fantasy Game Notes: St. Louis goaltender Jaroslav Halak pitched a shutout last night against Florida. Halak was rarely tested and he had only 19 saves, but this start is not going to hurt his chances of seperating himself from Brian Elliott in the race for the starting goaltender for the Blues. He should get the next few starts at worst.  St. ...

Markstrom projects to be the Panthers' top goalie this season but he will still have to earn the job out of camp. Stash him late in your drafts with hopes he can put it all together this season.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 17 shots in a blowout loss to the Maple Leafs on Thursday. He will face his Florida counterparts for the third time this season. He is 1-1-0 with a 2.42 GAA and .907 SV% vs. the Lightning this season.

Markstrom played great stopping 36 of 38 shots in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday. He had lost six straight while giving up 25 goals prior to Tuesday's contest. He'll face a solid Leafs team tonight, look elsewhere.

The young Swede has a a rough season after putting up some solid numbers last campaign. With 10 games tonight he probably isn't a viable starting option unless you are desperate.

Markstrom has lost his last 4 starts and was pulled in 2 of those games.

Markstrom has lost his last 3 starts .

Markstrom allowed six goals on 23 shots in a 7-2 loss to the Jets in Winnipeg. It won't get any easier for the young net-minder tonight as he faces Evgeni Malkin and the Penguins. I don't think it would be a good idea to start him tonight.
