Lundqvist will protect the blue paint against the Penguins on Thursday, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.

Analysis:

Lundqvist has been solid in the postseason as he has allowed a mere five goals in the three previous contests. Despite the perception, King Henrik can't win the series on his own and will need some offensive support from his teammates. In terms of fantasy value, the 34-year-old is one of the best netminders in the league, yet he is facing a Pens squad that can score, which should give owners pause when setting their daily lineups.
