Fantasy Impact:

Nilsson has produced a solid stretch of play recently and has also taken on the lion's share of starts with Craig Anderson on the shelf (lower body). He's posted a 6-2-0 record in his last eight games and has allowed two goals or less in six games across that same span. His ratios for the season are up to a solid 2.58 GAA and .927 SV%, alongside a 7-5-1 record. Nilsson is a worthy fantasy start against a Minnesota team that sits 22nd in goals per-game this season (2.76), on top of the fact that they're turning to rookie Kaapo Kahkonen to make his second career start in goal.
