Fantasy Impact

Vanecek continues a dismal stretch in net of late, allowing three or more goals in four of his last six starts (2-2-1) for the Devils. The netminder will need to offer more stability in the crease for a New Jersey squad fighting for a return to the postseason, carrying a 3.18 GAA and .890 save percentage in 32 appearances (17-9-3) so far this season.
