Fantasy Impact

Kochetkov received no help in this one, but he also did not have his best night in net. He and Frederik Andersen may split starts the rest of the way to keep the latter fresh for the playoffs, which may give Kochetkov a chance to be a productive goalie for Fantasy down the stretch here. He fell to 12-7-5 with a 2.43 GAA and a .909 SV%. He remains a deep-league streaming option or a strong handcuff if you also roster Andersen.
