DFS: Friday's Goaltender Value Rankings
Here are theScore's goalie value rankings for Friday, November 27:
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Jaroslav Halak (NYI) | at FLA | 8 |
| Marc-Andre Fleury (PIT) | at CLB | 8 |
| Mike Condon (MTL) | at NJ | 7 |
| Antti Niemi (DAL) | vs. VAN | 7 |
| Cory Schneider (NJ) | vs. MON | 7 |
Halak has found his form, winning two games after losing his previous three. He battles a Panthers team lacking firepower on offense and is a must-roll.
The Stars' goaltending tandem of Niemi and Kari Lehtonen has been fantastic, and with Lehtonen set to miss time with an upper-body injury, Niemi will continue to produce wins by benefiting from Dallas' elite offensive prowess, leading to a respectable GAA and SV% at a low-cost.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Jimmy Howard (DET) | vs. EDM | 6 |
| Roberto Luongo (FLA) | vs. NYI | 6 |
| Sergei Bobrovsky (CLB) | vs. PIT | 5 |
| Mike Smith (ARI) | vs. CGY | 5 |
| Chad Johnson (BUF) | vs. CAR | 4 |
The Red Wings goaltending tandem faces the Oilers' young, potent offense on Friday, with Howard and Petr Mrazek providing great value at a low-cost, owning a sub-2.50 GAA while seeing 30 shots per game this season.
Bobrovsky holds an 11-5 record under new coach John Tortorella and is worth firing up as a contrarian play against the Penguins.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Cam Ward (CAR) | at BUF | 3 |
| Ryan Miller (VAN) | at DAL | 2 |
| Cam Talbot (EDM) | at DET | 1 |
Ward is a feasible flier play for this slate against an inconsistent Sabres offense while Miller faces the dominant Stars offense in Dallas and can't be trusted to return value.
