Here are theScore's goaltender value rankings for Monday, January 18:
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Al Montoya (FLA) | vs. EDM | 10 |
| Louis Domingue (ARI) | vs. BUF | 9 |
| Brian Elliott (STL) | vs. PIT | 8 |
All three are playing at home and are considered heavy favorites to win. Montoya and Domingue may not be counted among the elite, but have performed admirably when called upon. Elliott has impressed in Jake Allen's absence.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Connor Hellebuyck (WPG) | vs. COL | 6 |
| Semyon Varlamov (COL) | at WPG | 5 |
The Sharks are favored, despite being on the road, and Jones should be the goalie of record. He's won four consecutive starts, too. Hellebuyck is in tough against the Avalanche who have a strong front six despite the disappointing record.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Jeff Zatkoff (PIT) | at STL | 4 |
| Cam Talbot (EDM) | at FLA | 3 |
| Craig Anderson (OTT) | at SJ | 1 |
Road goalies against teams that can put together bunches of goals are not to be trusted. Stay away.
