Fasth will be in the crease for Saturday's game against the Panthers.

Analysis:

Fasth hasn't played in over a week, but was uncharacteristically dependable the last time his number was called back on Jan. 6, as he made 37 saves in a 4-2 loss to the Red Wings. No. 1 goalie Ben Scrivens has lost three straight starts while posting save percentages under .870, so if Fasth can at least keep the Oilers competitive Saturday, he may be able to parlay the outing into an increased role.
