Kari Lehtonen allowed two goals on 28 shots in the Stars' 4-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets Thursday night.

With the win tonight, Lehtonen has now reached the 20-win mark for the fifth time in his career. Lehtonen has been ok since coming back from a groin injury on Dec. 29 but tonight was a very encouraging start. The former first round pick has a stellar skill-set, however he has had a long history of injuries which have hampered his ability and development. Fantasy owners hope that he can somehow replicate his excellent first half stats for the rest of the season. Either way, he has provided great value this year.
