Forsberg will protect the home goal versus the Avalanche on Saturday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Forsberg has gone 2-4-0 with a 3.97 GAA and a .900 save percentage in his seven games this season. Even with Nazem Kadri (undisclosed) out, the Avalanche will post a huge challenge, making Forsberg an unfavorable option in fantasy.
