As expected, Greiss will start in goal against the visiting Predators on Saturday.
For obvious reasons, NHL coaches tend to ride the hot hand, and new bench boss Barry Trotz must've been smitten by Greiss's performance in Thursday's season opener when the German allowed one just goal on 46 shots in a road win over the Hurricanes.

After all, Trotz is fresh off a Stanley Cup win with the Capitals.
