Jaroslav Halak

Islanders placing Jaroslav Halak between the pipes

New York Islanders goalie Jaroslav Halak will draw the start Tuesday night versus the New York Rangers.

What It Means:

In his previous outing against the Rangers this season, Halak surrendered four goals on 38 attempts in a 5-3 loss. He's 4-6-5 on the season with a 2.93 goals-against average and .914 save percentage. The Rangers are pacing the rest of the league in scoring with 3.65 goals per game.

Our models give Halak a decent 46.0 percent chance of picking up the win, but he's not a recommended DFS play for Tuesday's nine-game slate. We project him to allow 2.7 goals on 28.2 attempts versus the Rangers.
