Sunday's Goaltender Value Rankings

Here are theScore's goaltender value rankings for Sunday, April 3:

Value Rankings
C | W | D | G

Top Options

Name Opponent Value
Jake Allen (STL) at COL
Devan Dubnyk (MIN) at WPG
Matt Murray (PIT) vs. PHI 8

Allen recorded a shutout in his most recent start, ending a tough stretch in which he allowed at least four goals in three consecutive starts. Dubnyk's allowed three goals in each of his past two starts, but he had allowed just one his previous two starts.

Murray recorded a shutout Saturday afternoon, but his price remains quite low for Sunday. He may be tired, but his team is playing too well for him to be faded.

Best of the Rest

Name Opponent Value
Scott Darling (CHI) vs. BOS 7
John Gibson (ANA) vs. DAL 6
Kari Lehtonen (DAL) at ANA 5
Tuukka Rask (BOS) at CHI 5

Darling's won three of his past starts. The Bruins are a tough opponent, especially with Sunday's game being of the must-win variety, but the Blackhawks can always be favored at home. Both Gibson and Lehtonen are risks with all the offensive potential involved in that game.

Nothing to See Here

Name Opponent Value
Semyon Varlamov (COL) vs. STL
Ondrej Pavelec (WPG) vs. MIN
Steve Mason (PHI) at PIT 2

Bad matchups and bad goaltending. Mason could be used as an ultimate contrarian play against a tired Penguins team, but even a win is likely to come at the expense of a handful of goals allowed.
