It’s difficult for any netminder not to record two shutouts against the same opponent. Yet Jordan Binnington After stopping 23 of the 23 shots in Edmonton, the Oilers will host the Oilers to try and do exactly that. They have their own reasons. Leon Draisaitl, Connor McDavid Jay Woodcroft said that the player is now “fine” after hitting the net on Monday. Darnell Nurse They will do all they can to make sure that it doesn’t happen. With Jack Campbell Fantasy managers might not see much scoring for this match, as he allowed just one goal in Saturday’s 2-0 loss.
Puck drop in St. Louis follows the Rangers vs. Islanders game, where one New York team will snap a three-game losing streak. The Lightning will then look to rebound from Monday’s loss in L.A. (4-2), by visiting the not-very-good Ducks. Wednesday’s mini slate wraps up.

Favorable scoring matchups
UBS Arena, 7:30 PM
First of all, his projected starting netminder for opposition hasn’t performed well versus his former team. In 2018, the team moved on. Jaroslav Halak is currently 0-2-2 and has a.825 SSV% and a 5.62 GAA against Islanders. Even in limited play, the veteran backup hasn’t been all that great. This Season, with a 4.03 GAA (and.852SV%) through two games. Rangers, who haven’t won since beating Ducks a week ago are coming off a hard shootout loss against the visiting Avalanche last night.
Lane Lambert, Isles coach is said to be content with the “progress,” his team is making since they lost three of their own. I’m not saying that UBS Arena demolishes their guests cross-town. Win The game is not yet over, but the math suggests that we will see some goals. Mathew Barzal And Co. in this one.
10 p.m., Honda Center
Even Vancouver has a better goal differential (-12) than the Ducks -14. Only Arizona and Minnesota allowed more goals/game, and the Wild is expected soon to leave that company. After losing an extremely winnable Los Angeles game, the Lightning will feel even more annoyed. Tampa is the projected healthy favorite (-145) according to the oddsmakers.
Fantasy forwards of the mid-tier
Anders Lee, LW, New York Islanders (40.1%): Even though his side is losing, the Islanders captain continues to score. Lee has four goals from 14 shots in his past four contests. His club has seven points to date, led by the top-six power-play winger and winger.

Anders Lee capitalizes on the power-play for the 2nd goal

Forwards in Deep league/Daily Fantasy Value
Anthony Beauvillier, LW/RW, New York Islanders (1.7%): Monday’s practice indicated Beauvillier is back in action after he was a healthy scratch. This was coach’s decision. Lee also seems to be skating alongside Beauvillier on a top-six. Brock Nelson. Managers interested in Wednesday’s fantasy wildcard should find this combination appealing. Beauvillier also scored during Saturday’s loss at Tampa.

Mid-tier fantasy defensemen
Torey Krug, St. Louis Blues (55.1%) The Oilers’ penalty killing is in dire need of improvement, with a paltry 74.1% success rate. Krug was the Blues’ most powerful player, scoring the goal that beat Campbell. After Monday’s poor performance against the Jets, Krug must show more effort as a St. Louis defender.
Goalies
Brian Elliott, Tampa Bay Lightning (2.8%): Elliott just came off a solid 32-save victory against the Islanders. In their last three games, the opposing Ducks have scored only four goals. If he substitutes, I’ll be supporting Tampa’s backup. Andrei Vasilevskiy As expected.
Ilya Sorokin, New York Islanders (96.3%): Sorokin is a better netminder than the two losses that he suffered in recent weeks. In his one appearance against the Rangers last season, he stopped 29 of 30 shots in a 2-1 win on Mar. 17. As I mentioned, the Rangers will be playing their second game in the same night. So.
