Here are theScore's goalie value rankings for Saturday, October 24:
| # | NAME | OPPONENT | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Martin Jones (SJ) | vs. CAR | Low |
| 2 | Devan Dubnyk (MIN) | vs. ANA | Low |
| 3 | Carey Price (MTL) | vs. TOR | Low |
| 4 | Cory Schneider (NJ) | at BUF | Low |
For his DFS salary, Jones is a steal. Through his first six games with the Sharks, the North Vancouver native has been better than advertised, allowing just 10 goals with four wins and two shutouts. Eight of those goals have come in his last two starts but Jones should be able to get back in the win column against a weak Hurricanes squad.
| # | NAME | OPPONENT | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | Pekka Rinne (NAS) | vs. PIT | Medium |
| 6 | Henrik Lundqvist (NYR) | at PHI | Medium |
| 7 | Ryan Miller (VAN) | vs. DET | Medium |
| 8 | Kari Lehtonen (DAL) | vs. FLA | Medium |
| 9 | Jaroslav Halak (NYI) | at STL | Medium |
| 10 | Brian Elliott (STL) | vs. NYI | Medium |
| 11 | Frederik Andersen (ANA) | at MIN | Medium |
| 12 | Eddie Lack (CAR) | at SJ | Medium |
| 13 | Corey Crawford (CHI) | vs. TB | Medium |
| 14 | Marc-Andre Fleury (PIT) | at NAS | Medium |
| 15 | Semyon Varlamov (COL) | vs. CLB | Medium |
The Predators are shaping up for a great year with the steady excellence of netminder Rinne leading the way. The team ranks third in the NHL with just two goals against per game. More importantly, Nashville ranks eighth in goals scored per game, meaning that Rinne is finally getting some goal-support. Pittsburgh has been a shocking disappointment on offense this year with only 1.57 goals per game but there's inherent risk in betting against an attack featuring the names Sidney, Evgeni, Phil and Kris.
| # | NAME | OPPONENT | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 16 | Petr Mrazek (DET) | at VAN | High |
| 17 | Craig Anderson (OTT) | vs. ARI | High |
| 18 | Steve Mason (PHI) | vs. NYR | High |
| 19 | Al Montoya (FLA) | at DAL | High |
| 20 | Jonathan Bernier (TOR) | at MTL | High |
| 21 | Sergei Bobrovsky (CLB) | at COL | High |
| 22 | Linus Ullmark (BUF) | vs. NJ | High |
| 23 | Anders Lindback (ARI) | at OTT | High |
| 24 | Kristers Gudlevskis (TB) | at CHI | High |
Bobrovsky and the Blue Jackets didn't change overnight with the hiring of John Tortorella as coach. Until further notice, you cannot conceivably back Columbus' goalie corps until they show some major progress. Even as a contrarian play, other goalies with a higher upside and less baggage exist at Bobrovsky's price tier, such as New Jersey's Schneider.
