DFS: Thursday's Goaltender Value Rankings
Gary A. Vasquez / USA TODAY Sports
Here are theScore's goaltender value rankings for Thursday, October 22:
| # | Name | Opponent | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Martin Jones (SJ) | vs LA | Low |
| 2 | Andrew Hammond (OTT) | vs NJ | Low |
| 3 | Pekka Rinne (NAS) | vs ANA | Low |
| 4 | Devan Dubnyk (MIN) | vs CLB | Low |
| 5 | Henrik Lundqvist (NYR) | vs ARI | Low |
| 6 | Braden Holtby (WAS) | at VAN | Low |
| 7 | Corey Crawford (CHI) | vs FLA | Low |
Jones' phenomenal play as a Shark hasn't transferred into a high DFS price. His home matchup against Los Angeles' second-worst offense is almost impossible to pass up.
Meanwhile, the Hamburglar is back! Hammond, who went 20-1-2 with a .941 save percentage last season, gets the call at home against an offensively-challenged Devils squad.
| # | Name | Opponent | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | Marc-Andre Fleury (PIT) | vs DAL | Medium |
| 9 | Roberto Luongo (FLA) | at CHI | Medium |
| 10 | Antti Niemi (DAL) | at PIT | Medium |
| 11 | Ryan Miller (VAN) | vs WAS | Medium |
| 12 | Frederik Andersen (ANA) | at NAS | Medium |
| 13 | Jonathan Quick (LA) | at SJ | Medium |
Dallas, Chicago and Pittsburgh are sleeping bears waiting to be awakened from hibernation. Poke them at your own risk.
| # | Name | Opponent | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14 | Cory Schneider (NJ) | at OTT | High |
| 15 | Mike Smith (ARI) | at NYR | High |
| 16 | Sergei Bobrovsky (CLB) | at MIN | High |
There's simply no need to even look at any of these goalies with all of the other great matchups available. Smith has been great but he'll be in tough on the road against the Rangers.
