Thomas Greiss Blanks Jackets On Thursday
6 years agoNew York Islanders goaltender Thomas Greiss stopped all 31 shots faced in his team's 3-0 defeat of the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday. In doing so, the 33-year-old picked up his 17th victory and fourth shutout of the campaign. It's been a tremendous bounce-back season for the netminder who posted a 3.82 goals-against average and a .892 save percentage in 2017-2018, as Greiss now sits second in the NHL in GAA (2.20) and first in SVP (.930) on the current campaign. His fantasy value takes small hit due to the fact that he splits starts with Robin Lehner, but he's still proven to be one of the strongest free-agency adds in fantasy this season. Greiss' stellar performance on Thursday should earn him a second consecutive nod in net against the Oilers on Saturday.
