Alex Stalock making his first start of the season for Minnesota tonight

Minnesota Wild goaltender Alex Stalock will make his first start of the season on Thursday night as the Wild host the Ottawa Senators.

What It Means:

Stalock played in only 13 games last season, but he posted an ugly .884 save percentage and 2.94 goals-against average while going 3-5-2 on the year.

numberFire's models project Stalock for 22.6 saves, 2.1 goals against and a 55.0 percent chance of scoring a win against Ottawa, making him our ninth-ranked fantasy goalie among the 18 in action on Thursday.
