Devils at Blackhawks projected goalies

Jon Gillies (3-8-1, 3.50 GAA, .893 SV%) vs. Marc-Andre Fleury (16-18-4, 2.80 GAA, .912 SV%)

Gillies returns to the net after a nine-day layoff. He was last seen allowing 6 goals to the Lightning Feb. 15.

Fleury has had sharp and flat outings since late January, mostly due to the defense in front of him. Chicago had been making strides in yielding fewer shots on goal and high-danger looks this season. They’ve coughed up a lots of both recently, and it has had the 37-year-old on the ropes in a few recent starts.
