Bernier will patrol the crease Saturday evening against host Detroit, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bernier will field shots from a Detroit team that has welcomed the return of several players from injuries lately but is still having one heck of a time on the power play -- one man-advantage goal in the past eight games. After enduring a nightmarish 2015-16 campaign with the Maple Leafs that included just 12 wins in 38 games, Bernier looks slightly more comfortable in a Ducks sweater based on his six victories in 13 tries, though the save percentage (.908) mirrors his rate from last season.

Bernier made 31 saves in a 4-3 win over Boston on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
After getting shellacked with eight goals on Dec. 4, Bernier has now won two straight starts against tough opponents in the Sharks and Bruins. The victory now gives him a 6-2-1 record in his first season with the Ducks, but his 2.69 GAA and .908 save percentage leave a lot to be desired, and despite John Gibson's struggles does not appear to be a threat to take the No. 1 job.

Bernier will guard the goal in Thursday's road game against the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Bernier has been decent in limited action this season, posting a 5-2-1 record with a 2.65 GAA and .907 save percentage over 12 appearances. The 28-year-old backstop will look to pick up his sixth win of the season in a favorable matchup with a Bruins team that's only averaging 2.32 goals per game this season, 25th in the NHL.

Bernier saved 22 of 24 shots during Friday's win over San Jose.
EDGE Analysis
Bernier's numbers are skewed by his awful outing -- eight goals allowed -- against Calgary on Monday. Aside from that blow up, he's surrendered two goals or fewer in each of his prior six outings and is now 5-2-1 for the season. He'll have a tough time earning a 50-50 timeshare with John Gibson, but Bernier could continue to see more work going forward. The 28-year-old veteran is a solid No. 4 goalie for your fantasy club.

Bernier will indeed start Friday night's game against the Sharks, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Bernier will make his eighth start of the season. He faces a Sharks team Friday that ranks 24th in the NHL with 2.38 goals per game.

Bernier is in line to start against the Sharks on Friday night, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
While Bernier has yet to be officially confirmed as the starter, all signs point to him being in net Friday, but we will be sure to update his status if he does not go. The decision to start Bernier doesn't come as a huge surprise after John Gibson allowed five goals in an overtime win on Wednesday. It also makes sense considering Bernier saved 21 of 23 shots in his last outing against San Jose on Nov. 26.

Bernier allowed eight goals on 25 shots in Sunday's loss to the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
A disastrous outing for Bernier, who had no answer for a Flames team that was welcoming star forward Johnny Gaudreau back into the lineup. It was just the second regulation loss of the season for Bernier, who owns a .906 save percentage in 10 appearances. The 28-year-old has been solid behind John Gibson, so it's probably best to chalk this one up as a bad team outing and move on. Bernier will rebound, so don't get too hung up on this one, as the Ducks remain one of the top teams in the Western Conference.

Bernier will tend twine for Sunday's road game against the Flames, Roger Millions of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
No surprise to see Bernier get the start after John Gibson went the distance in an overtime loss to Edmonton on Saturday. Bernier has looked solid in his last three starts, stopping 75 out of 81 shots for a .926 save percentage over that span. He gets a Calgary team Sunday that ranks 26th in the league with 2.26 goals per game.

Bernier stopped 21 of 23 shots in Saturday's win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Bernier has played very well this year, allowing two or fewer goals in all but one of his nine appearances. The 28-year-old is 4-1-1 with a .933 save percentage and 2.02 GAA. While he splits the crease with John Gibson, Bernier has played good enough to warrant a fantasy play whenever he's called upon for the Ducks.

Bernier will guard the goal in Saturday's road game against the Sharks, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bernier has played well lately, registering a 1-0-1 record with a 1.92 GAA and .938 save percentage over his last two appearances. The 28-year-old backstop will look to stay sharp in a tough road matchup with a hot Sharks team that has won their last three games at home.
