Jimmy Howard

Detroit's Jimmy Howard will return from injury to face Chicago

The Detroit Red Wings are starting Jimmy Howard in goal versus the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday.

What It Means:

Howard will be making his first start since December 20th due to a knee injury. He made two starts in the AHL to get back into game shape, winning both with one 21-save shutout. Howard owned a 1.96 goals against average with a .934 save percentage in 17 appearances before the injury.

Our models project Howard to be the best value goalie option of the night with 18.5 fantasy points at only a $7,600 price tag.
