Goalies

Joonas Korpisalo, BOS vs. VAN (18% rostered)

The Bruins have yet to announce their starter at the time of publication and it would be a minor surprise if Korpisalo got the start. But it's certainly possible; Joe Sacco opted for Korpisalo in his first game behind the bench, who responded with a 21-save shutout, though Jeremy Swayman was excellent in their subsequent game.

Perhaps the Bruins will opt for a rotation until they really get into a groove, and if that's the case, I think Korpisalo can be a good play in this matchup. The Canucks are grinding hard for wins and their offense has taken a hit without J.T. Miller and Brock Boeser. The Canucks have always had trouble winning in Boston, with an all-time 12-49-7 away record against the Bruins, per mcubed.net.

Karel Vejmelka, UTA at MON (24% rostered)

It was surprising to see Vejmelka start both games of Utah's weekend back-to-back, but it only reinforces the notion that they don't trust Jaxson Stauber very much.

However, Vejmelka has been excellent lately; in his three starts since taking over for the injured Connor Ingram, Vejmelka has allowed just five goals on 94 shots (.947 SP). He's won just once, but that's an indictment against Utah's offense and the only big drawback in this matchup. I like Vejmelka's prospects against a Habs team that also has trouble scoring. Although Patrik Laine has been practicing in full, he's not expected to dress as of this writing.
