C. DeSmith - G

PIT

DeSmith will start Saturday's road tilt in Vegas, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

DeSmith will be countered by ex-Penguin Marc-Andre Fleury and a Vegas club that's 15-4-3 on home ice this season. The matchup is far from favorable, but DeSmith's almost always in with a chance to win thanks to the prolific group of skaters in front of him.

S. Varlamov - G

COL

Varlamov made 30 saves in a 7-1 win over the Kings on Saturday afternoon.

It was his second win in three starts. That's the good news. But it was just his second win since Dec. 15 and only his third since Dec. 2. That's the not-so-good news. Sure, there were short stretches in there where Varlamov missed time due to undisclosed issues. But his game has been queasy all season and that makes him a massive fantasy risk.

Barkov (hand) is

Barkov played through the hand injury he suffered Friday in Toronto and will be able to do so again here.

T. Rask - G

BOS

Rask exited Saturday's game against the Rangers after getting crashed into by Filip Chytil.

Chyil added insult to injury by scoring on the play just before getting pushed into Rask by Boston's Charlie McAvoy. Jaroslav Halak will replace Rask, who stopped six of seven shots before exiting. Luckily for the Finnish netminder, Boston doesn't play again until Jan. 29, giving him ample time to recover.

J. Reimer - G

FLA

Reimer will start Saturday's game in Nashville, Brooks Bratten of NHL.com reports.

Reimer gets the second leg of Florida's back-to-back after Roberto Luongo faced the Maple Leafs on Friday. He'll take on a Nashville club that's 16-8-0 at Bridgestone Arena.

E. Karlsson - D

Karlsson (undisclosed) won't suit up Saturday in Tampa Bay, The Athletic's Kevin Kurz reports.

This news comes out of nowhere, as Karlsson has been firing on all cylinders with 27 points in his last 18 games. What specifically is sidelining Karlsson should come out before San jose's next game Monday in Florida, and likely in Saturday's post-game press conference.

G. Landeskog - F

COL

Landeskog scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in a 7-1 win over the Kings on Saturday afternoon.

Landeskog's nine points, including five goals, in his last seven games make him a particularly strong play in any format. His 54 points (29 goals, 25 assists) in just 48 games projects to 90 points -- including a possible 50 goals -- this year. Landeskog is having the season of his career.

N. MacKinnon - F

COL

MacKinnon set up two goals in Saturday's 7-1 rout of Los Angeles.

Mack has 70 points in just 48 games, a pace that would see him flirt with 120 points this season. And remarkably, he's not the team's top scorer. That title belongs to Mikko Rantanen. MacKinnon and Rantanen are among the best in the league. Enjoy this run.
