Jonathan Bernier Fantasy Stats

New Jersey Devils goaltender Jonathan Bernier (hip) has been placed on Injured Reserve, and the veteran appears to be set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Bernier has already missed time with a hip injury this season and the news is very worrying, with Devils head coach Lindy Ruff saying that he's "worried and concerned" for the long-term health of Bernier. The 33-year-old had a great start to the campaign, winning all first three of his starts, but only one more victory has followed. Mackenzie Blackwood makes another start for the team on Friday against Nashville, heading into the matchup with a 5-3-3 record.

New Jersey Devils goaltender Jonathan Bernier won't be able to help his team against Washington on Thursday after picking up a lower-body injury. The veteran netminder made a nice 2-0-0 start to the campaign before getting hurt. He's listed day-to-day. With Mackenzie Blackwood (heel) still unavailable, Scott Wedgewood gets his season debut on Thursday. The 29-year-old had an awful time last term with a 3-8-3 record and is a very risky play for fantasy managers. Wedgewood's career record stands at 10-18-8, and he's registered a 3.07 goals-against average with a .902 save percentage in his career.

New Jersey Devils goaltender Jonathan Bernier got his second win of the young season against the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday night. He stopped 27 of 29 shots in the win to move to 2-0 on the season. It is unclear how much longer Bernier will start. However, Mackenzie Blackwood (heel) was put on Injured Reserve, retroactive to last week. That opens the door for Bernier to potentially start the rest of this homestand. With games against Washington on Thursday and Buffalo on Saturday, Bernier could be a solid start based on his good form early on.

New Jersey Devils goaltender Jonathan Bernier will guard the cage in Friday's season opener against Chicago, with Mackenzie Blackwood (heel) still recovering from offseason surgery. It's a Devils debut for Bernier, who was picked up by New Jersey on a two-year deal in the summer. The veteran netminder played in Detroit last season, posting a 9-11-1 record. He did a good job for a poor team, registering a 2.99 goals-against average and a .914 save percentage. The Devils start the season with a depleted blueline as Damon Severson (lower body) and Ty Smith (lower body) are out of commission, so Bernier has to be at his very best straight away to make a winning start.

The New Jersey Devils signed veteran goaltender Jonathan Bernier on Wednesday. The contract is for two years with a $4.125 million AAV. Bernier carried the Detroit Red Wings in what was a trying year for Detroit as a whole. He posted a 9-11-1 record in 23 starts with a 2.99 GAA and .914 save percentage. It may seem like an overpay but New Jersey is near the salary cap floor and desperately needed a backup for Mackenzie Blackwood. Bernier expects to have a little more fantasy value in New Jersey and may play 30-35 games or more. He could be considered a nice third goaltender or even fourth in deeper fantasy leagues.

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Jonathan Bernier will look to produce a bounce-back performance in Monday's road game at Carolina after giving up seven goals in his previous start. The veteran netminder had a nightmare against Nashville last Thursday in a 7-1 loss. Bernier is allowing over three goals per game (3.03) for the season, but he has a decent .910 save percentage and even owns a winning record by going 8-7-0 in 17 starts. The 32-year-old has lost consecutive starts just three times this season.

Detroit Red Wings veteran netminder Jonathan Bernier leads his team against the Carolina Hurricanes Thursday night. Bernier has been solid between the pipes for Detroit, posting a record of 6-4-0, a 2.84 goals-against-average, and a .913 save percentage. The 13 year NHL veteran has won three of his last five contests. Four percent of Yahoo! fantasy managers picked up Bernier last week, most likely due to the goaltender's strong play of late.

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Jonathan Bernier stopped 38 of 39 shots against on Saturday, handing the visiting Florida Panthers just their third loss in regulation this season in a 2-1 loss. The 32-year-old, who missed the first two weeks of the season due to injury, has now won four of his seven starts on the campaign, an impressive feat considering Detroit has won just five times in 20 games this season. With a 2.74 goals-against average and a .910 save percentage thus far, Bernier is doing his part to earn more of a starting role in Detroit. It would be hard for Bernier to maintain this level of success playing behind a team in the midst of a complete rebuild, but he may be worthy of a stream in fantasy leagues while he remains hot.

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Jonathan Bernier will face the Blackhawks in his third start of the season on Sunday. He is a perfect 2-0-0 for the season so far with a 2.00 goals-against average and a .927 save percentage. Bernier has caused plenty of headaches for Chicago through the years, posting a 4-3-1 record with a 2.33 goals-against average and a .932 save percentage. He'll be hoping that Detroit has managed to reset its offense, after suffering a 4-1 loss versus the Blackhawks a couple of days ago.
