The Los Angeles Kings are expected to start Peter Budaj in goal Tuesday as they visit the Colorado Avalanche.
Budaj has been in a funk lately, losing five of his last six games with a .867 save percentage and a 3.57 goals-against percentage. Lucky for him, he gets a plus matchup on Tuesday against the NHL's worst team. The Avalanche have won only 16-of-57 games and is scoring just 1.98 goals per game this season.
numberFire's models project Budaj as the seventh-best goalie option -- out of 18 starters -- on Tuesday with 18.4 fantasy points, 2.1 goals allowed, 24.0 saves and a 57.0 percent chance of earning the win.
