Fantasy Impact

There is no timeline for his return and has been out since Dec 3rd when the Devils fell to the Jets 8-4. The Devils are reportedly, "very concerned" about it. This will open up more starts for Mackenzie Blackwood. Akira Schmid, who was recalled from Utica of the American Hockey League will serve as the backup.

Jonathan Bernier stopped 22-of-24 shots during the Red Wings 3-2 overtime win versus Columbus.

Many people shied away from Red Wings during their fantasy drafts, but don't be afraid to use Bernier in a pinch or as a backup on your roster. He is playing behind a revamped defense group, so he won't be left completely helpless like last season where he posted a 15-22-3 record in 46 games with a 2.95 GAA and .907 SV%.

Jonathan Bernier allowed five goal in the Red Wings’ 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes on Tuesday. He saved 31-36 shots against in the loss. He dropped his record to 15-22-3 with a 2.95 GAA and a .907 SV%

Fantasy Impact

Bernier got torched in this one. At some point they will need to give him a rest. He is going to see most of the starts down the stretch and should be a good option for points leagues.
