What It Means:

While his 21-13-1 record through 35 starts is fairly solid, Lundqvist has been struggling this season. His .905 save percentage and 2.78 goals-against average are both on pace to be career-worst marks by a pretty significant margin.

Despite those struggles, our models are very high on Lundqvist against Buffalo tonight. We project him for 27.4 saves, 2.3 goals against and a 55.0 percent chance of scoring a win, making him our top-ranked fantasy goalie on Thursday's eight-game slate.
