It’s another busy week in a condensed NHL season with 20 teams playing four times. With plenty of back-to-backs and favorable schedules, there is more than enough fantasy hockey goalie streams for week 10 to choose from. As always these suggestions will be more or less useful depending on the depth of your league and current situation. Let’s get started!

Fantasy Hockey Goalie Streams For Week 10
Anaheim Ducks
With John Gibson (84%) on the shelf for now, Ryan Miller (7%) and Anthony Stolarz (5%) will share the net. It’s unclear how long Gibson will be out, but with the Ducks playing four times with no back-to-backs this week it’s likely Miller will get most of the starts. Miller hasn’t been great, winning only three games out of 11, but if you are desperate for a start this week he is most certainly available in your league. The Ducks play Monday/Wednesday in Minnesota versus the Wild and Friday/Sunday in St. Louis against the Blues. If Miller falters look for Stolarz to get some game time.
Arizona Coyotes
Darcy Kuemper (81%) is week-to-week with a lower-body injury. Meanwhile, Antii Raanta (41%) is back from his own IR stint and looked great in a 5-1 win in Anaheim. The Coyotes play twice on Monday/Tuesday against the high-scoring Colorado Avalanche so be careful there. However, on Friday/Saturday they get an easier back-to-back at home to the Sharks. Raanta will be a good play on the weekend, however, Adin Hill (16%) could also grab the net for one of the contests.
Columbus Blue Jackets
The Jackets have four this week with a pair at home versus the Carolina Hurricanes on Monday/Thursday, followed by a back-to-back in Detroit on the weekend. Joonas Korpisalo (76%) and Elvis Merzlikins (66%) will probably split the games. If either or both are available in your league the Saturday/Sunday matchups in Detroit look pretty tasty. Merzlikins is also coming off a 35 save 3-2 win over the Hurricanes who have lost three in a row.
Calgary Flames
The Flames have a nice schedule this week with a pair in Ottawa on Monday/Wednesday and two at home versus the Jets on Friday/Saturday. Jacob Markstrom (98%) will likely play three of the four including the two in Ottawa, but David Rittich (26%) will get one of the games against the Jets. The Flames are 4-3-1 in their last eight games since coach Darryl Sutter took over.
Chicago Blackhawks
Are the Blackhawks still surprising anyone at this point? Rookie tender Kevin Lankinen (80%) certainly isn’t and probably is no longer available in your league. Malcolm Subban (19%) probably is available however and is in line for a home start on either Saturday or Sunday versus the Nashville Predators. There is considerable risk here but Subban is 4-4-1 in nine games and the wounded Nashville Predators are tied for third-worst in the NHL scoring only 2.22 goals-per-game.
Florida Panthers
The Panthers play four games this week with a back-to-back on Saturday/Sunday. It’s the same story here where expensive starter Sergei Bobrovsky (89%) will continue to play most of the games. However, Chris Driedger (56%) will be a great fantasy hockey goalie stream for Week 10 as he continues to outplay goalie Bob. Driedger is coming off a 2-0 shutout of the Nashville Predators and will get one of the weekend games versus the Dallas Stars. At this point, Driedger should be owned in most leagues and would be if he got more consistent playing time. Grab him while you still can!
Montreal Canadiens
The Habs have four at home this week all nicely spaced out with no back-to-backs. The Edmonton Oilers are in town for three games in a row on Monday/Wednesday/Friday. Carey Price (93%) will get most of the starts as usual. However, Jake Allen (43%) will probably get a game in most likely on Friday versus the Oilers or on Sunday against the Ottawa Senators.
Philadelphia Flyers
With Carter Hart (95%) continuing to struggle this season, Brian Elliot (39%) will get some games in for the Flyers. Elliot hasn’t fared much better than Hart but the Flyers have a favorable schedule with four at home and a back-to-back to start the week against the New York Islanders and the New Jersey Devils. Elliot could be a decent start if you need one in whichever of the two games he gets the nod.
Winnipeg Jets
The Jets play four games away with two each against the Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames this week. You can pencil in Laurent Brossoit (19%) for one of the back-to-backs on Friday/Saturday in Calgary. Brossoit remains a solid spot start if you need it.
Toronto Maple Leafs
The Leafs play only twice this week and normally that would be a clear signal to steer clear. However, Frederick Andersen (100%) is struggling and is now apparently either injured or being given a rest. In the meantime, Jack Campbell (35%) may finally be given the ball to run with for a while. Campbell appears fully healthy and is now 4-0 with two shutouts in a row. He will face the Ottawa Senators on Thursday and maybe the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday as well. Campbell is a great short-term speculative add and perhaps a longer one if he continues to get the job done.
