The Vancouver Canucks are starting Jacob Markstrom in goal versus the Calgary Flames on Friday.
Backstrom was brilliant his last time out on Tuesday. He stopped 31-of-32 shots faced as Vancouver defeated the Winnipeg Jets 4-1. On Friday, the netminder gets to face a Flames club who has lost three of their past four while scoring only 2.25 goals per game.
Our models have Markstrom 15th-of-24 goalie options on Friday with a projected 16.6 fantasy points, 2.7 goals allowed, 27.0 saves and a 45.0 percent chance of winning.
