Merilainen Starts Monday vs Kings, Riding Three-Game Win Streak

Leevi Merilainen will start in goal for the Ottawa Senators on the road against Los Angeles on Monday, as confirmed by Jackson Starr. Merilainen enters the game on a three-game winning streak, during which he has posted a 2.33 GAA and a .912 save percentage. This impressive run has spanned approximately four weeks. With no immediate back-to-back games for the Senators, his next start may not be for a little while, limiting his fantasy value to mid-range.
