Satriano: Jarry, Price, Dell trending up

NHL.com Staff Writer David Satriano released his updated Top 25 Fantasy Goaltender Rankings on Thursday, and said that Tristan Jarry of the Pittsburgh Penguins, Carey Price of the Montreal Canadiens, and Aaron Dell of the San Jose Sharks are "trending up" in terms of percent owned in standard Yahoo! leagues.

Here is what Satriano wrote of Jarry:

Pittsburgh Penguins starter Matt Murray was in the Trending Down section last week, prior to his injury. Now that he's week to week with a lower-body injury, Jarry likely will get most of the starts. Jarry has seen his ownership skyrocket (up 33 percent in the past two days) and is 2-0-2 with a 2.83 GAA and a .907 save percentage in four games (three starts) this season. He has made 41 saves on 45 shots in his past two appearances. Jarry has five games of NHL experience, but he had 28 wins, a 2.15 GAA and .925 save percentage in 45 American Hockey League games with Wilkes/Barre Scranton last season. Casey DeSmith (less than 1 percent owned) likely won't challenge Jarry, so the job is likely his, for better or worse, until Murray returns.

Here is what Satriano wrote of Price:

There were obviously concerns from the Montreal Canadiens and fantasy owners alike when Price returned from his lower-body injury last weekend. So far, he's put all those questions to rest. Price has led the Canadiens to three straight wins, making 100 saves on 102 shots (.980 SV%) against the Buffalo Sabres, Columbus Blue Jackets and Ottawa Senators. He's looked sharp in each game, showing the form that won him the Vezina and Hart trophies in 2014-15. It's clear as long as he's healthy, he's the No. 1 in Montreal. That's not to say fantasy owners should expect these types of performances every night, but Price looks like a different goalie than the one who was 3-7-1 with a 3.77 GAA and .877 SV% before the injury.

Here is what Satriano wrote of Dell:

Martin Jones sustained a lower-body injury on Saturday during a 4-0 win against the Winnipeg Jets in which he made 38 saves and got a shutout. Jones didn't leave the game and traveled with the San Jose Sharks on their four-game road trip, although Dell got the start on Tuesday. He made 22 saves in a 3-1 win against the Philadelphia Flyers to improve to 3-3-1 with a 2.06 GAA and .924 SV%. Dell was very good backing up Jones last season (11-6-1, .200 GAA, .931 SV%) in 20 games (17 starts) and has already made nine appearances this season. Even if Jones is able to play Friday against the Florida Panthers, it's the first game of a back-to-back, meaning Dell likely would start against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday. Dell is one of the most valuable fantasy options in the League.
