Fantasy Analysis
Though Chris Mason is among the league's most capable backups, it is important to keep in mind that he is, at the end of the day, just that; a backup. He is likely to start only five to ten more times for the balance of the regular season. (Updated 02/03/2012).
01/23/2012 21:46 Hurricanes score early, hold off Jets
Jeff Skinner and Tim Brent scored first-period goals for the Carolina Hurricanes, who held off the Winnipeg Jets 2-1 on Monday night.
01/17/2012 21:45 Kovalchuk, Devils stay hot in win vs. Jets
Ilya Kovalchuk scored two goals, giving him seven in six games, and the New Jersey Devils beat the Winnipeg Jets 5-1 on Tuesday night.
01/16/2012 22:26 Mason, Jets blank Senators
Chris Mason made 25 saves for his second shutout and the Winnipeg Jets ended a three-game losing streak with a 2-0 win over the Ottawa Senators on Monday night.
Mason posted a goals-against average of 3.39 last season, which is the highest of his career since becoming a regular in the NHL. At this point in his career, Mason is a platoon goalie at the best of times, and really, the majority of time between the pipes in Winnipeg will probably go to his teammate Ondrej Pavelec. Mason is only worth drafting as an occasional plug-and-play option where the opponent is favorable. (Updated 10/4/11)
