Thomas Greiss

Thomas Greiss to start in goal as the Islanders host the Canadiens

New York Islanders netminder Thomas Greiss will start Thursday's home game against the Montreal Canadiens.

What It Means:

Greiss has wins in three of his last four starts, and is sporting a career-high .927 save percentage with a 2.31 goals-against average on the season. He draws a tough matchup tonight though, as the Canadiens have at least five goals in four of their last 10 games.

Our models project Greiss for 25.7 saves, 2.4 goals against and a 44.0 percent chance of scoring a win on Thursday night. That makes him our 19th-ranked fantasy goalie on the day's huge 13-game slate.
