Henrik Lundqvist: Will start Saturday
Lundqvist (neck) will protect the net on the road Saturday against the Red Wings, Pat Leonard of New York Daily News reports.
Analysis:
Having missed three straight contests after leaving March 3 with a neck injury, the Rangers will finally get their star netminder back in the crease. On tap is a Red Wings club vying for a playoff spot, but it's also a club that's also lost three of their last four. The King is a must start in season-long leagues regardless of opponent, but he's a bit more of a chancy play in daily formats Saturday.
