Dennis Hildeby slated for backup role as Lightning host Canucks
Dennis Hildeby is projected to handle backup duties behind primary starter Andrei Vasilevskiy as the Lightning host Vancouver at Benchmark International Arena. Hildeby was stellar in his lone outing for Tampa Bay this season, turning aside 34 shots with a .944 save percentage to earn a win. However, Tampa Bay (5–2–0) sits in strong position as clear home favorites against a struggling Canucks squad (2–7–1), who likely counter with Leevi Meriläinen (unconfirmed) in a higher-scoring environment, meaning Hildeby will almost certainly watch from the bench.
Our daily projections reflect Hildeby's non-starting status with zero saves and an uncertain win chance, resulting in a low fantasy expectation for tonight. Tampa Bay completes its three-game slate for the week tonight, and our weekly models expect modest volume overall given his secondary crease role. With Vasilevskiy commanding the crease in a favorable home spot, Hildeby offers no standalone value for daily lineups unless an unforeseen pregame shift occurs. Today's action: Bench.
