Skinner will guard the visiting net in Buffalo on Monday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Skinner has won his last two starts after struggling through the month of February, going 1-4-1 with a 3.77 GAA and an .880 save percentage in that month. Skinner is 22-15-4 with a 2.87 GAA and an .897 save percentage across 43 appearances this season. The Sabres are generating 3.13 goals per game in 2024-25, 12th in the NHL.

Fleury posted 19 saves on 21 shots in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Penguins. The third goal was an empty-netter

Fleury had a strong outing against his former team, but the Wild failed to provide him with much goal support. He posted a clean first period before the Penguins put two goals past Fleury in the final two periods. The 40-year-old netminder has a 12-8-1 record with a 2.73 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 22 games this season. While Fleury is seeing less action for Minnesota due to his age and role behind Filip Gustavsson, he has still been a solid option in fantasy when his name has been called. Fleury is good for a spot start in all formats but is unlikely to see consistent ice time moving forward.

Jarry stopped 29 of 30 shots in Sunday's 3-1 win against Minnesota.

Jarry had a strong return to the NHL after spending nearly two months with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. He kept Pittsburgh's net spotless until the 14:54 mark in the third period when Ryan Hartman scored the Wild's lone goal of the game. The 29-year-old Jarry now has a 9-8-4 record with a 3.20 GAA and an .888 save percentage. Sunday's win was Jarry's first in the NHL since Dec. 23 and his second start this season where he allowed one goal or less. While Alex Nedeljkovic has been Pittsburgh's top netminder for the majority of the season, Jarry's strong return could lead to an even split in goaltending opportunities for the time being. Jarry still has a bit more to prove before becoming a trustworthy option for lineups in fantasy, but Sunday's showcase is an encouraging sign.

Ullmark is slated to patrol the home crease versus Detroit on Monday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

Ullmark is 3-0-1 in his last four games despite allowing 13 goals on 121 shots (.893 save percentage). Overall, the 31-year-old netminder is 15-11-3 with three shutouts, a 2.73 GAA and a .908 save percentage. He has a huge matchup against the Red Wings, who trail the Senators by three points in the chase for the second wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. Detroit is generating 2.83 goals per game in 2024-25, tied for 19th in the NHL.

Daccord stopped 20 of 23 shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Capitals. The fourth goal was an empty-netter

Daccord kept Seattle's net tidy through the first period before allowing three goals in the final two frames, including two in the first three minutes of the second period. The 28-year-old goaltender now has a 21-18-3 record with a .910 save percentage and a 2.65 GAA. Daccord has lost four of his last five appearances as Seattle has struggled as a team overall. The Kraken have relied on Daccord in net heavily this season, which gives him good value in fantasy due to the frequency of his starts, though the results have not been good lately. Daccord's next opportunity to take the ice is Wednesday at home against the Canadiens.

Quick stopped 21 of 28 shots in Sunday's 7-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Quick had a woeful showing Sunday, and perhaps the lone reason why he wasn't lifted earlier was because Igor Shesterkin needed a break from the heavy workload he's endured of late. Quick has gone 3-1-0 with a 3.23 GAA and an .893 save percentage over his last five outings. The Rangers have a back-to-back next weekend, so that may be the next time we'll see Quick out there again.

Tarasov stopped 32 of 35 shots in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Rangers.

Tarasov is firmly entrenched as the backup to Elvis Merzlikins, but there's no question he's showing promise every time he's tasked with protecting the Blue Jackets' crease. Tarasov has gone 3-0-0 with a 2.32 GAA and a .929 save percentage over his last three appearances, but it's worth noting those three games have come in a span between Jan. 31 and March 9.

Lindgren saved 30 of 32 shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

Despite allowing two of the first four goals of the game, Lindgren tended a clean third period to help guide the Capitals to Sunday's win. The 31-year-old netminder is up to a 15-10-3 record with a .898 save percentage and a 2.64 GAA over 29 games. Lindgren has won four of his last five outings and has benefited from the Caps' success this season. Despite playing behind Logan Thompson on Washington's depth chart, Lindgren is a great streaming option in all formats to deploy for a spot start. The Capitals play three games this week so Lindgren is likely to defend the crease in one of those outings.

Andersen stopped 20 of 22 shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over Winnipeg.

Andersen has been alternating starts with Pyotr Kochetkov, but the 35-year-old veteran is making a strong case to see action on a more regular basis. Aside from winning his last two starts, Andersen has posted a save percentage of at least .900 in four of his last five appearances. Andersen has gone 2-3-0 with a 2.24 GAA and a .908 save percentage over that five-game stretch. However, Kochetkov has been almost just as good, going 4-1-0 with a 2.40 GAA and a .904 save percentage over his previous five appearances.

Hellebuyck stopped 23 of 26 shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes. The fourth goal was an empty-netter with 2:02 left in the third period.

Hellebuyck has been one of the best goaltenders in the NHL this season, but he's been trending in the wrong direction of late, with only one win across his previous four starts, going 1-2-1 over that span. However, his peripheral stats remain excellent even in games when he isn't winning, as evidenced by his 1.99 GAA and his .927 save percentage over that four-game span. The star netminder will aim to bounce back in his next start, though the Jets' upcoming two opponents aren't easy by any means -- they'll take on the Rangers on Tuesday and will face the Stars on Friday.
