MacEwen last played on January 26th and was forced to leave the game after just 1:50 TOI due to a fractured jaw which has led to him now being placed on the injured reserve attractive to that date. The 26-year-old had four goals, five assists, 63 SOG, 54 PIMs and a -9 plus/minus prior to his injury.

Ersson had a 15-10-1 record, .911 SV% and 2.58 GAA with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL) and has been recalled for a second time Monday to the Philadelphia Flyers. The 23-year-old was exceptional in his previous NHL stint this season, going an undefeated 5-0-0 with a 2.37 GAA and .918 SV%.

Bellows had three goals, 10 points, 16 PIMs and a +3 plus/minus with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL) and was recalled Monday to Philadelphia. It is his second stint with the Flyers, picking up a goal and six PIMs through 15 games played previously with the team this season.

Bisson-Paquette has three goals, nine assists, 31 PIMs and a +2 plus/minus through 41 games with Ontario (AHL) this season and has been recalled to the Los Angeles Kings Monday. If he sees NHL action it will be the first of his career.

Friedman has a goal, 17 SOG, 11 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 11 games this season but is out for the time being due to an upper-body injury. It is a tough loss for Friedman, who had just been finding himself regularly back in the Penguins lineup.

Peterka has seven goals, 12 assists, 76 SOG and 22 PIMs through 49 games this season but will head to the press box Monday as a healthy scratch. He is replaced by Rasmus Asplund in the lineup.

Asplund has been a healthy scratch since January 28th but will draw back into the Sabres lineup Monday as they take on the Los Angeles Kings. The 25-year-old has two goals, six assists, 30 SOG, and a +1 plus/minus through 26 games this season with the Sabres.

Shore had just three assists, and 17 SOG through 29 games this season with the Oilers and has been returned to Bakersfield (AHL) after clearing waivers Monday. The 28-year-old has 404 career NHL games so will hope to be back up with the Oilers soon.

Copley was perfect in his previous start, stopping all 25 of 25 shots as he shut out the Pittsburgh Penguins for his second career shutout. The 31-year-old remains incredibly hard to defeat, as shown by his 16-3-1 record, 2.77 GAA and .901 SV%. He will take on the Buffalo Sabres, who have lost their last three games after a 7-2 loss to Calgary last game.

Delia allowed five goals on 29 shots (.828 SV%) but still picked up his third win in four games as he beat the Islanders in his previous start. The 28-year-old has struggled when called upon this season, yet still has a decent record with his 7-3-1 record, 3.27 GAA and .887 SV%. He takes on the Detroit Red Wings, who have won their last two games but are 21st in the NHL in goals per game (3.0).

Anderson stopped 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) as he snapped a three-game losing streak by beating Dallas in his previous start. The NHLs oldest active player has been incredibly solid when called upon this season, with his 8-6-2 record, .918 SV% and 2.73 GAA. He takes on the Los Angeles Kings, who snapped a three-game losing streak with a 6-0 win over Pittsburgh last game.

Makar took a blindside hit to the head from Penguins' forward Jeff Carter late in the game last Tuesday which has caused the 2022 Norris Trophy winner to miss the Avalanche's last two games and he will not return Tuesday as they take on Tampa Bay. Colorado will hope their star defenseman is only forced to miss a minimum amount of time as he has 13 goals and 45 points in 45 games this season.

Johnson suffered a lower-body injury while blocking a shot on Saturday and will not be available for Tuesday's game vs. Tampa. Head coach Jared Bednar said that they do not have a timeline for Johnson's return.

Vejmelka allowed six goals on 37 shots (.838 SV%) as he snapped a three-game winning streak with a loss vs. St. Louis his last time out. The 26-year-old has held strong nightly despite having minimal offensive help, leading to his 14-17-5 record, 3.24 GAA and .906 SV%. He takes on the Nashville Predators, who have won four of their last five games after a 2-1 overtime victory over Philadelphia last game.

Bobrovsky allowed four goals on 49 shots (.918 SV%) as he snapped a two-game winning streak with a loss to Colorado in his last outing. The 34-year-old has been solid in his last few starts which have improved his rather ugly season numbers as he still has a 14-14-2 record, 3.13 GAA and .903 SV%. He takes on the Minnesota Wild, who beat New Jersey 3-2 in a shootout in their last game but are 24th in the NHL in goals per game (2.94).

Chychrun has been the subject of many trade rumours in the last 48 hours and will sit for a second-straight game due to "trade-related reasons." The 24-year-old has seven goals, 21 assists, 114 SOG and is a +8 plus/minus through 36 games with the Coyotes this season prior to his recent scratches.

Deniskeno had nine goals, 12 assists, 29 PIMs and a -14 plus/minus through 39 games with the Charlotte Checkers (AHL) and has been recalled Sunday with the expectation to play Monday. This is the 22-year-olds second NHL stint this season, picking up three assists across 12 games in his first go with the Panthers.
