Bobrovsky will take back the Panthers' crease on Tuesday after handing it over to Anthony Stolarz for a win on Saturday. The 35-year-old Vezina winner will find himself back into trophy talks yet again this season due to his incredibly impressive 28-11-2 record, 2.36 GAA and .916 SV%. He will look to bring Florida their ninth win in 11 games as he takes on the surging Buffalo Sabres, who have won their last three games and four of their last five.

Ersson will return to the Flyers' crease on Thursday vs. Tampa Bay after giving Cal Petersen the start in an ugly 7-6 loss over the weekend. The 24-year-old 2nd-year netminder has done an admirable job holding down the Flyers' starting job after getting the role of starter unexpectedly and has a 16-11-4 record to show for it with a 2.56 GAA and .900 SV%. He will host the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday, who have won their last two games and are seventh in the NHL in goals per game (3.40).

Ingram will attempt to snap the Coyotes' ugly 12-game losing streak as he takes the crease for a second-straight game on Tuesday in at the Bell Centre. The 26-year-old has taken over Arizona's crease in his third NHL season due to his stellar player and 17-13-3 record, 2.80 GAA and .911 SV%. He heads to Montreal to take on the Canadiens, who also find themselves in a bit of a slump having lost their last five-straight contests.

Drysdale was crushed by Jansen Harkins in Pittsburgh on Sunday and left the ice appearing to reach for his shoulder. It sounds like Drysdale could return this season, but he's expected to miss several weeks. Expect the team to release a detailed timetable in the upcoming days.

Several poor outings for Joey Daccord have earned Grubauer his second start in the last three games for Seattle. Grubauer entered Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Minnesota Wild in relief, saving 17 of 18 shots (.944 SV%), and has been terrific since returning from a multi-month absence due to injury, posting a .939 SV% in three appearances (2-0-0). Seattle is a +131 home underdog against the Bruins on Monday despite defeating them 4-1 less than two weeks ago.

Rittich will return to the Kings' crease for the third straight game on Monday. The Czech netminder has been terrific for the Kings this season, posting a 2.21 GAA and .917 SV% in 17 games (9-3-3), including saving 22 of 24 shots (.917 SV%) in his last outing, a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks. The Kings enter action as +138 road underdogs against the Edmonton Oilers.

Milano was a late scratch for Monday's game, with the Capitals not announcing his absence until warmups began. Milano has six goals and five assists in 27 games this season.

Jensen is battling a lower-body injury and his status for Monday's game against the Ottawa Senators was up in the air, but he's ultimately been deemed out. In his last game, Jensen played 17:39 time-on-ice, recording two penalty minutes and three hits.

Mantha was a game-time decision on Monday due to the lower-body injury, but he appears to be good to go. While playing predominantly on a line with Aliaksei and Connor McMichael, Mantha has been productive lately, scoring five points (2G / 3A) in his last five games.

After serving as the backup the previous three games, Kuemper will return to the crease on Monday evening. In his last outing, Kuemper saved 28 of 31 shots (.903 SV%) in a 4-3 victory over the Montreal Canadiens on February 17th. The Capitals have points in four straight (3-0-1) and enter action as +115 home underdogs against an Ottawa Senators club with an identical record in their last four outings (3-0-1).

Ullmark will tend the twine on Monday for a Bruins club that has uncharacteristically lost six of their last eight (2-2-4). Ullmark allowed three goals on 30 shots (.900 SV%) in his last outing, a 3-2 extra-time loss to the Calgary Flames. The Bruins are -141 road favourites against the Seattle Kraken on Monday despite being defeated by them 4-1 less than two weeks ago.

Rittich will likely return to the Kings' crease for the third straight game on Monday. The Czech netminder has been terrific for the Kings this season, posting a 2.21 GAA and .917 SV% in 17 games (9-3-3), including saving 22 of 24 shots (.917 SV%) in his last outing, a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks. The Kings enter action as +138 road underdogs against the Edmonton Oilers.
