Casey DeSmith Starting On Thursday
2 mins agoDallas Stars goaltender Casey DeSmith will get the starting nod on Thursday evening against the Tampa Bay Lightning. DeSmith has been deployed as the clear No. 2 netminder in Dallas, as Jake Oettinger has seen the majority of starts. Since the start of February, DeSmith has appeared in just five contests. During this stretch, he has held a perfect 5-0 record with a .915 save percentage and 2.41 GAA. Through 20 total appearances this season, the 33-year-old has posted a 12-6 record with a solid .914 save percentage with a 2.42 GAA. DeSmith has posted two shutouts and has allowed two goals or less in 11 of his contests. However, he will have a tough task this evening, facing a potent Tampa Bay offense. He should be viewed as a high-risk option in DFS and only started in deeper redraft formats.
