Thomas Greiss Gets The Call On Tuesday
5 years agoNew York Islanders goaltender Thomas Greiss will guard the cage as his team faces the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center on Tuesday. The 33-year-old will make his first start since December 27th - a game in which he got yanked after giving up three goals on 11 shots in a 5-2 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks. With fellow netminder Semyon Varlamov having taken over starting duties, Greiss should bring the top of his game against a basement-dwelling Devils team in an attempt to win back more starts. He carries a 2.58 goals-against average and a .919 save percentage in 19 appearances in 2019-2020. Despite the Islanders playing on second night of a back-to-back, Greiss looks like a solid option in net for Tuesday.
