Jimmy Howard getting the nod for Detroit

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Jimmy Howard will draw the start on Saturday as the Red Wings host the Colorado Avalanche.

What It Means:

Despite a shaky 6-8-1 record this season, Howard has been excellent, and his .931 save percentage and 2.03 goals against average are both on pace to be career-best marks.

Howard is our top-ranked fantasy goalie of the day, with our models projecting him for 25.2 saves, 1.8 goals against and a 67.0 percent chance of scoring a win.
