The Pittsburgh Penguins handed Mathieu Garon his fourth loss in a row, as they defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 6-3. Garon allowed five goals on 43 shots in yet another tough outing. It almost seems as if he's still playing for the Columbus Blue Jackets, as he's getting a lot of reps but not much to show for them thanks to the shaky defense in front of him and his own shortcomings.

Mathieu Garon will start in net for the Tampa Bay Lightning against the Pittsbugh Penguins Sunday. Garon is used to the backup role at this point in his career, but still ended up playing in 35 and 36 games in his last two seasons with Columbus and should post similar numbers again this year in Tampa. Garon is a solid goaltender that is much better suited as a backup and given his track record, he shouldn't be counted on as a number one netminder. He's a risky play this afternoon against the Penguins as a starting goaltender on your fantasy team.

Mathieu Garon allowed three goals on only eight shots before being pulled Thursday night against the Carolina Hurricanes. And the musical chair continues in Tampa. Garon has been better than Dwayne Roloson so far this season but Tampa Bay's goaltending situation is becoming an increasing problem and neither of their netminders are particularly appealing from a fantasy perspective. Garon is a solid goaltender that is much better suited as a back up and given his track record, he shouldn't be counted on as a number one netminder. He's a fourth goaltender option on your fantasy team in 14-team leagues and should only be started in favorable matchups, if at all.

Mathieu Garon will be Tampa Bay's only lineup change on Thursday night versus the visiting Carolina Hurricanes. Dwayne Roloson dropped a 5-4 shootout decision to Vancouver on Tuesday, so Garon will be back the Lightning's crease. Tampa has had a tough time defensively this season and their goaltending has not helped them in that regard.
