Curtis McElhinney

Maple Leafs going with Curtis McElhinney for second set of back-to-back

Toronto Maple Leafs goalie Curtis McElhinney will start on Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings.

What It Means:

Frederik Andersen turned in a 22-save shutout against the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday night, so McElhinney will take over for tonight's tilt with Detroit. He came away with the victory in his Toronto debut on January 14 when he finished with 35 saves on 37 shot attempts.

numberFire's models project McElhinney to allow 2.6 goals and make 25.9 saves while giving him a 63.0 percent chance of winning. He's our 11th-ranked fantasy goalie among the 26 starters available for a hectic Thursday slate.
