Carey Price OUT

Carey Price starting between the pipes as Montreal hosts the Islanders

Montreal Canadiens goalie Carey Price will man the crease for Thursday's home game against the New York Islanders.

What It Means:

After a hot start to the season, Price has struggled a bit lately, losing six of his last 10. He is still 25-15-5 on the year, but his .918 save percentage and 2.44 goals-against average are both his worst marks since the 2012-2013 season.

Price is numberFire's fifth-ranked fantasy option among the 12 starting goalies in action on Thursday. Our models project him for 25.3 saves, 2.4 goals against and a 52.0 percent chance of picking up a win.
