Coyotes' Mike Smith to start between the pipes against Detroit

Arizona Coyotes netminder Mike Smith will start on Tuesday as the Coyotes take to the road for a game against the Detroit Red Wings.

What It Means:

Smith has gone 5-4-4 through 14 starts this season, and his .926 goals-against average is on pace to be his best mark since the 2011-2012 season.

Smith is only our 16th-ranked fantasy option among the 20 starting goalies in action on Tuesday. numberFire's models project him for 27.8 saves, 2.6 goals against and a 36.0 percent chance of picking up a win.
