Jeremy Smith making his second career start for the Avalanche on Thursday
The Colorado Avalanche are giving goalie Jeremy Smith his second career start on Thursday as they visit the Nashville Predators.
What It Means:
In Smith's NHL debut, the netminder allowed three goals on 40 shots in a loss to the New Jersey Devils on February 14. He has a tough task on Thursday as he visits the Predators, who own a 16-7-7 record at home while ranking in the top-10 of the NHL with 2.83 goals per game.
Our models project Smith for 15.6 fantasy points, 2.9 goals allowed, 29.0 saves and a 32.0 percent chance of earning the win. He is numberFire's eighth-ranked goalie out of the 12 starters in action on Thursday night.
