Greiss made 32 saves in a 5-1 loss to Boston on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The Bruins tilted the ice sharply and took too many penalties. Greiss was but a single man fighting an impossible battle against a fierce opponent. Patrice Bergeron tied a Bruins' record for power-play goals in a game (three) and scored four total on the night. Greiss has now allowed five goals in three of his last four starts, and lost all three of those contests. Use extreme caution, even with matchups. Two of those came against the potent Bruins and Leafs, but the struggling Canadiens also rang up five on him.

Greiss will protect the road goal Thursday versus the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Greiss has held his own in a timeshare role this year, posting a 3-2-0 record in five appearances. He's allowed five goals in two of his last three starts, and facing a top-heavy offense like Bruins could make the German a risky play in fantasy.

Greiss stopped 33 shots in a 5-4 loss to Toronto on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

His teammates came out of the gate slowly and the Leafs quickly outshot the Wings 8-2. Greiss held them in the game with several sharp saves early. He's 3-2 on the season and at 35, he clearly still has something left in the tank. Consider Greiss on a match ups basis.

Greiss will protect the road goal Saturday versus the Maple Leafs, Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Greiss has played a key part to the Red Wings' successful October, posting a 3-1-0 record with a 2.56 GAA and a .917 save percentage in four games. The Maple Leafs have struggled, so Greiss can be deployed with a bit of confidence in fantasy.

Greiss stopped 26 of 28 shots in a 3-2 overtime win over Washington on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Greiss stonewalled the Capitals at even strength, stopping all 22 shots he faced. Only the Washington power play was able to solve the veteran netminder, including Alex Ovechkin's rebound tally in the first period and Evgeny Kuznetsov's quick wrister off a faceoff in the second. Greiss improved to 3-1-0 with the win, and he owns a 2.80 and .914 save percentage in those four starts.

Greiss will get the starting nod on the road against the Capitals on Wednesday, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Greiss gave up just two combined goals in his first two outings before getting rocked to the tune of five goals on just 17 shots against Montreal on Saturday. The 35-year-old netminder will get a shot at redemption versus Washington but will need to rediscover his game if he wants to avoid being relegated to a backup role behind youngster Alex Nedeljkovic.

Greiss was blitzed for five goals on 17 shots in Saturday's 6-1 loss to Montreal.

EDGE Analysis

The 35-year-old was unable to survive the second period, yielding three goals by the midway point of the frame to turn a 2-1 Montreal lead into a 5-1 romp, at which point he was replaced by Alex Nedeljkovic. It was the first loss of the season for Greiss, whose save percentage tumbled from .969 to .914.

Greiss led the Red Wings onto the ice and will protect the road goal in Saturday's game versus the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Greiss has won both of his starts this year, allowing just two goals on 64 shots for a .969 save percentage. He'll have a good chance to make it three straight wins against a Canadiens team entering Saturday on a five-game losing streak.

Greiss is expected to get the starting nod against host Montreal on Saturday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

While this isn't a concrete starting goalie confirmation for Greiss, the German rattling off wins in each of his first two starts and then taking a back seat to Alex Nedeljkovic in Thursday's 3-0 loss to the Flames lends credence to the idea that Greiss should post up between the pipes in the next contest. He has set aside 62 of 64 shots in the infancy of the 2021-22 campaign.

Greiss kicked out 22 of 23 shots in a 4-1 win over Columbus on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Greiss was pitching a shutout until Boone Jenner got behind the Detroit defense for a power-play goal at 12:51 of the third period. The 35-year-old Greiss has been outstanding in each of his first two starts this season, winning both while stopping 62 of 64 shots (.969 save percentage). He could be back between the pipes when the Red Wings return to action Thursday at home against Calgary.
