Lundqvuist (illness) told reporters he is available to start Wednesday against Pittsburgh, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.

Analysis:

Lundqvist left practice early Monday as he felt a little under the weather but it appears that he is on track to protect the crease Wednesday. Barring injury, it would be a complete surprise if the 34-year-old was not the starter for the rest of the Rangers playoff run. With 35 wins and a .920 save percentage, he is one of the best netminders in the league and remains a top-end option for fantasy lineups even against the high scoring Penguins.
