Top picks for Friday, Nov. 20

Friday, 11.20.2009 / 9:57 AM / Fantasy Games
By Rocky Bonanno  - NHL.com Staff Writer
Red Wings goaltender Chris Osgood owns the Panthers with only one regulation loss in his career against the Cats. That loss occurred nearly 13 years ago! Osgood also has one overtime loss against Florida (Dec. 15, 2005), but the point is he more often posts a win against his Southeast opponent.

Other solid goalie plays this night are Ryan Miller against Boston and Evgeni Nabokov against Philadelphia, a team he has never lost to in eight career matchups. If you're looking for scoring, Colorado and Vancouver are meeting for the fourth time already this season, and several players have already done good things.
