Peter Budaj the probable netminder as Kings take on Colorado

Los Angeles Kings goalie Peter Budaj was the first goalie off the ice ahead of Tuesday night's matchup with the Colorado Avalanche.

What It Means:

Budaj enters Tuesday night 7-5-1 on the season with a 2.06 goals-against average and .914 save percentage on the season. His opponent has scored the least goals in the league and have lost three of their past four.

Despite the plus matchup, our models still see Budaj as a back-end option at goalie on FanDuel Tuesday night. We give him a 47.0 percent chance of earning the win, but also project him to get tagged for 2.69 goals on 27.27 attempts.
