Thomas Greiss starting in goal as the Islanders take on the Rangers

New York Islanders netminder Thomas Greiss will start on Wednesday as the Islanders take on the New York Rangers.

What It Means:

Greiss has struggled lately, going 1-3-1 over his last five starts while allowing 17 goals on 136 shots (.875 save percentage). That likely won't get any easier tonight against a Rangers team that owns the 5th-best offense in the NHL (3.15 goals per game).

Our models don't expect Greiss to bounce back tonight, projecting him for 27.5 saves on 30.4 shots -- for 2.9 goals against -- and a 38.0 percent chance of scoring a win. He is numberFire's second-worst ranked fantasy goalie among the six starters in action on Wednesday.
