Hellebuyck allowed four goals on 30 shots (.867 SV%) in his previous outing, but has played better lately. The 32-year-old Hellebuyck has allowed two or fewer goals in three of his last five games (1-2-2), posting a 2.42 GAA and .917 SV%, following up a 10-game stretch (2-5-2), where he had allowed three or more goals eight times. The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as +112 road underdogs against the New Jersey Devils, who have won three of their last four games (3-1-0).

Englund played 35 games last season, split between the Nashville Predators and Los Angeles Kings, but has spent the entirety of the 2025-26 season in the AHL. The 30-year-old defenseman has six points (2G / 4A) in 34 games with Milwaukee (AHL) this season.

The Sabres are currently alternating between Alex Lyon and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, and will likely turn to Lukkonen to tend the twine on Tuesday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 26-year-old Luukkonen was stellar in his previous outing, saving 32 of 34 shots (.941 SV%) in a 4-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens. In his last 10 games (7-2-1), Luukkonen is sporting an impressive 2.41 GAA and .922 SV%. The Sabres enter Tuesday's contest as slight +101 road underdogs against a Maple Leafs team on a four-game losing streak (0-3-1).

Halliday had a tremendous outing in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Vegas Golden Knights, scoring a career-high three points (2G / 1A), but exited the game after just 7:39 time-on-ice due to an upper-body injury. It's unclear what his status will be for tomorrow's game against the Colorado Avalanche but at the moment he is unlikely to dress.

Calle Jarnkrok will draw back into Toronto's lineup on Tuesday against the Buffalo Sabres, sending Quillan to the press box as a healthy scratch. The 23-year-old Quillan is averaging 7:39 time-on-ice through four games this season.

Jarnkrok did not play in Toronto's most recent game, but he will return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Buffalo Sabres. The 34-year-old Jarnkrok has had trouble contributing in a bottom-six role this season, scoring just seven points (6G / 1A) and recording a -8 plus/minus through 32 games.

Woll has helped an inconsistent Maple Leafs team battle back into the race for a playoff spot, but he has faced some adversity lately. The 27-year-old American goalie has lost four straight games (0-2-2), posting a concerning 4.12 GAA and .885 SV%, following up a near-perfect eight-game streak (7-0-1) where he had a 2.54 GAA and .914 SV%. The Maple Leafs enter Tuesday's action as +101 home underdogs against a Buffalo Sabres team that has the best record in the NHL since early December (18-3-1).

Bobrovsky has struggled lately, but salvaged a victory in his most recent outing, saving 18 of 21 shots (.857 SV%) in a 4-3 overtime win over the Minnesota Wild. The veteran 37-year-old goalie has a sub- .900 SV% in 12 consecutive games (6-6-0), posting an ugly 3.61 GAA and .849 SV%. That said, the Panthers enter the action on Tuesday as -150 home favorites against a Utah Mammoth team that failed to score in their 2-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning last night.

George has played the last two games for New York, his only two NHL contests this season, including scoring an assist in yesterday's 4-0 win over the Philadelphia Flyers. That said, the 21-year-old defenseman will return to Bridgeport (AHL), where he has 10 points (2G / 8A) in 24 games.

Sogaard was excellent in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Vegas Golden Knights, saving 19 of 20 shots (.950 SV%). That said, he will return to Belleville (AHL), where he has spent most of the season, an indication that Linus Ullmark is likely ready to return to Ottawa's crease.

Bourgault was a first-round pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft and made his NHL debut earlier this season, playing one game with Ottawa. The 23-year-old forward has 37 points (14G / 23A) in 43 games with Belleville (AHL) this season.

Kiersted played four games with Minnesota earlier this season, scoring one assist, but has spent most of the 2025-26 campaign in the AHL. The undrafted 27-year-old defenseman has four assists in 28 games with Iowa (AHL) this season.

Durzi exited Monday's game late in the third period after an awkward collision. The team should provide an update before they return to action tonight against the Florida Panthers. The 27-year-old Durzi has 15 points (3G / 12A) in 31 games this season.

It's the second time in less than a calendar year that Soucy was acquired in exchange for a third-round pick, after the Canucks shipped him to the Rangers last March. Soucy appeared in 62 games over the last two seasons during his brief tenure with the Rangers, tallying four goals and 11 assists while playing just under 17 minutes a night. Soucy now joins a crowded Islanders blue-line that already includes the likes of Matthew Schaefer, Adam Pelech, Tony DeAngelo, and Ryan Pulock, though Pulock is currently sidelined with an upper-body injury.

The Ducks are coming off a 4-3 overtime win over the Calgary Flames last night and will turn to Husso on the tail end of their back-to-back on Monday against the Edmonton Oilers. The 30-year-old Husso was excellent in his previous outing, saving 17 of 18 shots (.944 SV%) in a 2-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings. He has a 2.98 GAA and .902 SV% in his last six games (3-2-1). The Ducks enter Monday's contest as significant +225 road underdogs against an Oilers team that is 5-3-2 in their last 10 games.

Tsyplakov will slot in for Simon Holmstrom, who is out with an illness. Tsyplakov has just one goal and zero assists in 26 games this season.

Ritchie was a surprise scratch on Monday, with the Islanders not announcing his absence prior to warmups. The former first-round pick has seven goals and eight assists in 40 games this season.

Jokiharju will draw in for Nikita Zadorov, who is unavailable due to an ankle injury. Jokiharju will skate with Andrew Peeke on Boston's third pair.

Zadorov was limited to only 16:35 time-on-ice in his previous game and will be unavailable on Monday against the New York Rangers because of an ankle injury. The 30-year-old hard-hitting defenseman has 17 points (1G / 16A), 76 blocks, and 130 hits in 52 games this season.

Holmstrom will be unavailable on Monday after being labeled as a game-time decision due to an illness. Maxim Tsyplakov will draw into the lineup in his place.
