Peter Budaj, Colorado Avalanche - Budaj is now the probable starter for Saturday's game against the Ducks, reports the Rocky Mountain News.

Antero Niittymaki, Philadelphia Flyers - Niittymaki is the probable starter for Saturday's game against the Penguins, reports the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette & the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. We're not sure what to think here as Niittymaki wasn't very strong his last time out in losing his 12th straight game. Because of that, we'd have normally listed Robert Esche in this spot but if both Pittsburgh newspapers are listing Niittymaki, perhaps they know something we don't. We'll attempt to get an update before the game but that may be asking for too much since it's a very early start. UPDATE: The Philadelphia Inquirer & Daily News has now confirmed Niittymaki. Probability of start occurring: 85% [ UPDATED ]

Dan Cloutier, Los Angeles Kings - Cloutier will undergo surgery today in Colorado to repair torn cartilage in his hip, reports the LA Times. The exact recovery period is unclear, but Cloutier has a very real danger of missing the rest of the regular season with the injury. It doesn't really matter though as Cloutier was pretty useless before going down.

Mathieu Garon, Los Angeles Kings - Garon will be sidelined for at least one week due to a broken finger, reports the LA Times. He underwent X-rays after Thursday night's game against the Sharks and his finger was placed in a splint. Coach Marc Crawford indicated that Garon will be re-evaluated next Friday but this is obviously terrible news for Garon himself and those who own him in fantasy leagues as he will not get to show his stuff while starting in place of Dan Cloutier. Barry Brust will be thrust into the starter's role with Yutaka Fukufuji serving as the backup.
