Hurricanes placing Cam Ward in the net on Tuesday

Carolina Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward has been named Tuesday night's starter against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

What It Means:

Ward has won four straight entering tonight, contributing to a 6-4-3 record on the year, while posting a .916 save percentage and 2.36 goals-against average. Tuesday's draw won't be easy against a Toronto team that has taken six of their past nine and currently ranks third in the NHL in scoring (3.17 goals per game).

Ward is one of the cheaper options available for Tuesday's five-game slate, so he could return solid value at a $7,900 cost on FanDuel. Our models project him for 24.6 saves, 2.3 goals allowed and a 53.0 percent chance of winning.
