Arturs Silovs

Silovs faced 26 shots from Florida and turned them all away, playing 60:00 in goal. The shutout marks a strong result on paper, but his recent averages tell a different story. He posts a 3.08 GAA and .883 save percentage, numbers that place him well outside fantasy relevance in most formats. His save quality grades sit 17th among all goalies, reflecting below-average work on both expected goals saved and high-danger chances.

The Penguins hand him 88% of their starts, so volume is there. He has two games remaining this week, Thursday and Saturday, giving him another chance to play. His 3.08 GAA and .883 save percentage remain well below league average, making him a hold in deeper leagues where goalies are scarce but not someone to chase based on one clean sheet.

What to do

• Hold Silovs in deep leagues where his 88% start share provides volume, but his 3.08 GAA and .883 save percentage remain below league average.

• Bench Silovs in standard formats where his 3.08 GAA and .883 save percentage drag down ratios.

• Stream against Pittsburgh when Silovs gets the start, as his save quality grades rank 17th among goalies.
