Coreau will patrol the blue paint against the Bruins on Wednesday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coreau is coming off consecutive victories, including Monday's shutout victory over the Canadiens. The netminder will face off against a Boston squad that is averaging 34.0 shots per game -- second best in the league -- but only converting at 2.45 goals per night.

Coreau saved all 18 shots he faced during Monday's win over Montreal.
EDGE Analysis
It's been quite the two-game stretch for the rookie, as he's now topped two Eastern Conference powerhouses (Pittsburgh and Montreal) in consecutive starts. He's also won five of eight starts with two shutouts. While game-to-game inconsistency from the 25-year-old freshman should be expected going forward, Coreau is worth a speculative grab in deeper seasonal leagues or if you're in need of a netminder.

Coreau will tend the twine against the Canadiens on Monday, Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
After coming up big against the Penguins on Saturday, Coreau will keep his spot between the pipes. Since getting called up, the young netminder has posted four wins in seven appearances and while fantasy owners would like to see a lower GAA (3.12), it is hard to argue against racking up victories. If Coreau continues to perform well, coach Jeff Blashill may decide to keep riding the 25-year-old rather than turning the reins back over to Petr Mrazek who has struggled of late.

Coreau saved 28 of 31 shots during Saturday's win over Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
The rookie was bailed out by his offense Saturday, as the Red Wings scored six times. Coreau entered the game with an underwhelming .903 save percentage and 3.14 GAA, and he didn't do anything against Pittsburgh to increase his fantasy value. At this stage of the game, the 25-year-old netminder is nothing more than a streaming option in seasonal leagues and low-priced flier in daily contests.

Coreau will be the starting home netminder Saturday night against the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Coreau's a rookie, but he's already seen the Penguins this season. He stopped 32 of 36 shots in a hard-fought loss against Sidney Crosby's team in his NHL debut -- Dec. 3. The Red Wings have struggled in all facets of the game this season, so we'd be shy about streaming him in a grudge match against a Pittsburgh team that is just as dominant offensively -- the Pen's are No. 1 in goals per game -- as when he saw them last time.

Coreau was pulled Saturday against San Jose after giving up three goals on 15 shots.
EDGE Analysis
It was a short leash for Coreau, who was no match for a high-powered Sharks squad. The 25-year-old has been decent in limited action with Jimmy Howard (knee) sidelined, posting a 3-1-1 record with a .903 save percentage. While he posted a 34-save shutout in his previous start, he showed with his lackluster play Saturday and in the Winter Classic that finding consistency may be one of his issues. He may be worth scooping up in some very deep leagues for the odd start in gets in place of Petr Mrazek.

Coreau will man the road net against the Sharks on Friday night, Lisa Dillman of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coreau notched his first career shutout against the Kings in Los Angeles on Thursday, and now the rookie will be stacked up against a Sharks team that has lost three straight games. Still, he'll have to bring his A-game once again, as the Sharks are loaded with savvy veterans, including Joe Pavelski (35 points) and Joe Thornton (23 helpers) on the top line.

Coreau made 34 saves to shut out the Kings in Thursday's 4-0 road win.
EDGE Analysis
Coreau got three goals of support in the first period, then shut the door for his first career shutout. His biggest stop came against Tanner Pearson on a first-period penalty shot. The 25-year-old netminder has a 3-1-1 record, and will continue to get playing time with Jimmy Howard (knee) expected to miss another month.

Coreau will guard the goal in Thursday's road game against the Kings, Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coreau didn't play well in his last start, allowing five goals on 28 shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs. The rookie netminder will look to bounce back in a decent road matchup with a Kings team averaging 2.88 goals per game at home this season, 16th in the NHL.

Coreau allowed five goals on 28 shots in a loss to the Maple Leafs on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
With starting goaltender Jimmy Howard out with a sprained MCL, the rookie netminder has a chance to earn some decent playing time, but he didn't help his cause Sunday. Although Coreau was able to win his two previous overtime appearances, he fell in overtime Sunday. The five goals he allowed on 28 shots dropped his season's save percentage to .889, and all five of the goals Sunday were on even strength. Coreau will have to hope he receives another opportunity to win the Detroit net because he didn't earn it versus Toronto.
