Lindgren has not played since allowing three goals on 21 shots (.857 SV%) in a 3-2 loss to the Nashville Predators on January 11th. The 32-year-old goalie has had an up-and-down season, but has strung together a winning record in his past 10 games (6-3-1), posting a 2.84 GAA and .894 SV%. The Capitals enter Monday’s contest as +178 road underdogs against the league-leading Colorado Avalanche.



Wedgewood has been recovering from an ailment and has not played since January 8th, but he will return to the crease on Monday against the Washington Capitals. The 33-year-old Wedgewood has been tremendous for Colorado this season, but was amid a rough stretch before his brief hiatus, posting a 3.04 GAA and .890 SV% in his last five games (3-2-0). Still, the Avalanche enter Monday’s contest against the Washington Capitals as significant -200 home favorites.

Rooney has not had the opportunity to see much NHL action this season, but he has a goal in his only outing. The 32-year-old veteran of 331 NHL games has 10 points (7G / 3A) in 20 games with Tucson (AHL) this season.

Ryan Graves will draw back into Pittsburgh's lineup on Monday against the Seattle Kraken, sending St. Ivany to the press box as a healthy scratch. The 26-year-old St. Ivany is averaging 16:14 time-on-ice and has three assists in 14 games this season.

Jack St. Ivany will be a healthy scratch on Monday, allowing Graves to re-enter the lineup against the Seattle Kraken. The 30-year-old Graves is averaging 15:19 time-on-ice and has one point (1G / 0A) in 17 games this season.

After a concerning 0-3-0 start, posting a 4.04 GAA and .831 SV%, to start his tenure with the Penguins, Skinner has turned a corner and been excellent for his new team, boasting an impressive 1.45 GAA and .943 SV% in his last five games (4-1-0). The 27-year-old Skinner will return to the crease on Monday, with the Penguins entering action as -125 road favorites against a Seattle Kraken team on a three-game losing streak (0-2-1).

Fabbro exited Saturday's 4-3 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first period because of a lower-body injury. The 27-year-old Fabbro has seven points (3G / 4A) in 48 games and will miss approximately a week.

Quick has had a tale of two seasons, playing tremendously in limited action as Igor Shesterkin's backup, posting a 2.14 GAA and .924 SV% in 10 games (3-6-1). But an injury to Shesterkin thrust Quick into the starting role earlier this month, posting an ugly 4.43 GAA and .786 SV% in five games (0-4-1). The 39-year-old veteran Quick hopes to rebound on Tuesday when he visits his former team, the Los Angeles Kings, with whom he spent his first 16 NHL seasons.

Soucy is averaging 17:18 time-on-ice and has eight points (3G / 5A) in 44 games this season. The 31-year-old defenseman leads the Rangers with a +5 plus/minus. He has missed the past two games and will miss at least one more.

Martin made his first NHL start of the season in the Rangers' previous game and saved 25 of 28 shots (.893 SV%) in a 6-3 win over the Philadelphia Flyers, helping them end an ugly four-game losing streak (0-4-0) where they were outscored 27-10. The 30-year-old Martin, primarily an AHL goalie, has a 3.58 GAA and .882 SV% in 69 career NHL games (25-30-8). The Rangers enter Monday's contest as +117 road underdogs against a Ducks team on a three-game winning streak.

Robinson exited Monday's game in the first period because of an upper-body injury. Head Coach Rod Brind'Amour should provide an update following the game. The 30-year-old forward has 15 points (10G / 5A) in 43 games this season.
