Comrie stopped 27 of 33 shots on net in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Sharks.
Comrie struggled in Winnipeg's season finale, as he allowed two goals in the opening period before surrendering three more tallies in the second. With the loss, the 30-year-old netminder will wrap the season with a 12-11-1 record, a 3.13 GAA and an .890 save percentage across 25 outings this season. He improved as the season dragged on, with six wins over his final eight outings, but primarily served as Connor Hellebuyck's backup when the latter was fully healthy. Comrie is set to become an unrestricted free agent in the offseason, leaving his viability in fantasy up in the air ahead of next season.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Poised to start Thursday
Rotowire
Comrie was the first goalie off and is expected to be between the pipes at home versus the Sharks on Thursday, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Comrie has played in just 24 games this season, going 12-10-1 with a 3.00 GAA. It's been a slow stretch for the netminder of late, as the Jets were utilizing Connor Hellebuyck with extra frequency in the hopes of making the playoffs. A free agent this summer, Comrie could try to find another landing spot where he could see extra work.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Tough outing against Mammoth
Rotowire
Comrie stopped 31 of 35 shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Mammoth. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
This was Comrie's first start since March 22, as the Jets rode with Connor Hellebuyck during their failed pursuit of a playoff spot. The 30-year-old Comrie has appeared in a career-high 24 games this season, earning a 12-10-1 record with a 3.00 GAA and an .894 save percentage. The Jets have one game left on the schedule, which is Thursday at home versus the Sharks.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Tending twine Tuesday
Rotowire
Comrie will draw Tuesday's road start against the Mammoth, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.
With the Jets eliminated from postseason contention, Winnipeg will turn to Comrie to give Connor Hellebuyck some rest. Overall, Comrie has a 12-9-1 record, a 2.95 GAA and an .894 save percentage across 23 appearances this season. Tuesday's appearance will be his second in the team's last three games after he appeared in relief of Hellebuyck on Saturday. Comrie will face off against the Mammoth, who should pose a good challenge for the 30-year-old netminder with their 12th-ranked 3.23 goals per game this season.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Gives up two goals in relief
Rotowire
Comrie allowed two goals on three shots on goal in Saturday's 7-1 loss to the Flyers.
Comrie entered the game in the final period, but by that time, the Jets were already down 5-1 and had no chance to mount a comeback. Still, that doesn't make this outing any better since he was beaten on two of the three shots he faced. The Jets still have an outside chance to make the playoffs in the final week of the regular season, so they're expected to rely on Connor Hellebuyck between the pipes.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Secures shootout win
Rotowire
Comrie stopped 27 of 29 shots in regulation and overtime and both the shootout attempts he faced in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Rangers.
Both tallies against Comrie came in the second period as the hosts rallied from one-goal deficits, but the 30-year-old netminder prevented the Rangers from ever taking a lead. It was Comrie's sixth straight win dating back to Jan. 9, a stretch in which he's produced a sparkling 1.48 GAA and .943 save percentage.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Win streak at five
Rotowire
Comrie stopped 29 of 31 shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Blues.
He was by far the busier of the two netminders as the Jets got out-shot 31-16 on the afternoon, but Comrie took a shutout into the third before seeing it spoiled by Dalibor Dvorsky. Comrie hasn't lost a game since Jan. 1, going 5-0-0 over his last five starts with a dazzling 1.39 GAA and .946 save percentage in that span. Head coach Scott Arniel has also been very careful with his deployment -- none of those starts have come against teams currently in line for a playoff spot, and Comrie has beaten St. Louis (29th overall) twice during his hot streak while also downing Vancouver (32nd), Los Angeles (24th) and Florida (23rd).

Jets' Eric Comrie: Slated to start
Rotowire
Comrie is expected to start Sunday's home matchup against St. Louis, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.
Comrie is poised to get the second half of the Jets' back-to-back after Connor Hellebuyck played in Saturday's 3-1 win over Colorado. The 30-year-old Comrie has a 10-9-1 record this season with a 3.01 GAA and an .893 save percentage through 20 appearances. The Blues sit 27th in the league with 2.64 goals per game this campaign.

Rotowire
Comrie stopped 22 of 23 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Blues.
Comrie earned his second straight win with this performance. In those games, he's given up just two goals on 47 shots. The 30-year-old netminder improved to 8-9-1 with a 3.19 GAA and an .888 save percentage over 18 starts this season. Connor Hellebuyck will likely be between the pipes Thursday versus the Panthers, while Comrie will feature only occasionally in the backup role.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Facing Kings
Rotowire
Comrie will patrol the home crease versus Los Angeles on Friday.
Comrie will get his second start in 12 games, as the Jets played Connor Hellebuyck on Thursday in a 4-3 loss to Edmonton. Comrie is 6-9-1 with a 3.49 GAA and an .880 save percentage, not great numbers for a Jets team that's trying to snap an 11-game losing streak. The Kings are not a high-scoring team, as they sit in 28th in NHL scoring, generating 2.67 goals per game.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Set to start Thursday
Rotowire
Comrie will guard the road goal versus the Maple Leafs on Thursday, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Wiebe will get into action for the first time since Dec. 11. The 30-year-old netminder closed out his time as the Jets' starter with three straight losses before Connor Hellebuyck returned from knee surgery. Comrie allowed 13 goals over those losses, and the Maple Leafs have 20 goals over their last five games, a span in which they are 3-1-1.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Can't end skid Thursday
Rotowire
Comrie stopped 18 of 23 shots in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Bruins. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
The Bruins rattled off three goals in a span of 2:44 during the first period, and the Jets never really recovered from it. Comrie has lost three consecutive games, and this was arguably one of his worst performances of the year. He's now at a 6-8-1 record with a 3.30 GAA and an .886 save percentage through 15 starts. With 11 starts over the last 12 games, including seven in a row, fatigue may be in play at this point. Domenic DiVincentiis is awaiting his NHL debut whenever the Jets want to give Comrie a rest, though neither goalie would be a particularly good fantasy play for Saturday's game versus the Capitals.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Scheduled to start Tuesday
Rotowire
Comrie is slated to tend the home twine Tuesday against the Stars, according to Danielle Bain of TSN.
Comrie continues to see the bulk of the starting duties while Connor Hellebuyck (knee) is on the shelf, but the former has struggled in the No. 1 role. Comrie has played in nine of the team's last 10 games, going 3-5-1 with a 3.25 GAA and an .893 save percentage during that time. It won't get any easier for the 30-year-old against a 20-5-5 Dallas squad that has won three straight contests and sits fourth in the league with 3.40 goals per game this season.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Starting consecutive games
Rotowire
Comrie will guard the road goal versus the Oilers on Saturday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.
Comrie stopped 34 of 35 shots versus the Sabres on Friday, but he'll start consecutive games anyway. He'll face a tough challenge from the Oilers, who may be making their usual midseason surge after putting up nine goals on the Kraken on Thursday. Comrie has allowed just eight goals over his last four contests and is 2-1-1 in that span, suggesting he's gotten back on track, but this is a tough assignment.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Falls to Habs in shootout
Rotowire
Comrie turned aside 29 shots in regulation and overtime and two of three shootout attempts in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Canadiens.
Cole Caufield beat him through the five-hole to open the shootout, and while Comrie shut down Montreal's last two shooters, Winnipeg's three skaters couldn't get a puck past Jakub Dobes. Comrie has been shouldering a heavy workload while Connor Hellebuyck (knee) has been on the shelf, going 2-4-1 with seven outings with a lackluster 3.14 GAA and .891 save percentage, but so far the Jets have only called upon Thomas Milic when playing a back-to-back.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Pulled after first period
Rotowire
Comrie stopped 11 of 14 shots in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Sabres.
Comrie allowed three goals inside the first 15 minutes of regulation before the Jets subbed in Thomas Milic for the rest of the contest. With the loss, Comrie now has a 5-5-0 record with a 3.12 GAA and an .893 save percentage through 10 games this season. Since the reigning winner of the Hart and Vezina trophies, Connor Hellebuyck, went down due to a knee injury, Comrie has a 1-4-0 record with a 3.74 GAA and an .877 save percentage across five starts. While he's seeing the busiest workload of his career because of Hellebuyck's absence, Comrie is an inconsistent spot start in fantasy until the Jets get back on track as a team. Comrie's next chance to start is Wednesday in Montreal.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Makes 27 saves in defeat
Rotowire
Comrie stopped 27 of 30 shots in Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Wild.
Comrie started for a third straight game due to the absence of Connor Hellebuyck (knee), and once again, the results weren't encouraging. He's gone 1-2-0 with a 3.02 GAA and an .887 save percentage in his three starts since Hellebuyck went down. Expect him to remain as the Jets' No. 1 goaltender until Hellebuyck is ready to return, which is not expected to occur for at least four to six weeks at a minimum.

Comrie is coming off a 24-save effort in Friday's 4-3 loss to Carolina. He has a 4-2-0 record while allowing 17 goals on 169 shots through six appearances this season.
