Arvid Soderblom, CHI vs. LA (4% rostered)
Chicago's starting netminder was up in the air when this column was posted. Petr Mrazek could get the nod, though he has struggled mightily. Spencer Knight, just acquired in the Seth Jones trade, might be option, but he is more likely to play later in the week once he settles in. That leaves Soderblom, who earned his first win since Jan. 28 on Saturday. Soderblom has taken a step forward this season and could be the back up to Knight moving forward. For Monday, given the volume of shots Chicago allows, the hope is that Soderblom piles up saves, but a win might be challenging.
The other "back up" goalie going Monday is Alexandar Georgiev. But recommending him based on his performance would not be a wise choice by me.
