Steve Mason

Flyers' Steve Mason starting Thursday's home game

Philadelphia Flyers goalie Steve Mason will start on Thursday night as the Flyers host the New York Islanders.

What It Means:

Mason has gone 4-1 in his last five starts, bringing him to 24-21-7 on the year. Despite the recent success, his .907 save percentage and 2.70 goals-against average are both his worst marks since the 2011-2012 season.

numberFire's models project Mason for 23.8 saves, 2.4 goals against and a 55.0 percent chance of scoring a win on Thursday, making him our 11th-ranked fantasy goalie among the 18 starters in action tonight.
