NHL DFS Goalies
Jordan Binnington- DK $8.4K || FD $7.7K
Opponent - Los Angeles Kings
Slim pickings tonight for goaltenders, but Jordan Binnington may be a decent option. Despite two straight losses, Binnington has a 3-2-0 record, a 2.60 goals-against average, and a .903 save percentage. He's also logged a shutout. The Blues face off against Los Angeles, who rank second in goals for 35, but they also sit second in goals against 41 total.
