Binnington was pulled after allowing three goals on seven shots (.429 SV%) as he took the loss to Chicago his last time out. The 29-year-old has fought the puck all season, with his 18-15-3 record, .891 SV% and 3.26 GAA. He will take on the Buffalo Sabres, who have won three-straight games and are second in the NHL in goals per game (3.78)




Vanecek stopped 25 of 26 shots (.962 SV%) for his seventh-straight win as he beat Pittsburgh in his previous start. The 27-year-old has been incredibly solid in his first season in New Jersey, with his 19-5-2 record, 2.32 GAA and .916 SV%. He will face the Vegas Golden Knights, who have lost four of their last five games but have the eighth best powerplay in the NHL.

Swayman stopped 31 of 32 shots (.969 SV%) for his fourth straight win as he beat the New York Rangers in his previous start. The 24-year-old has been exceptional as part of the deadly Bruins' two-headed combo, with his 11-3-3 record, 2.26 GAA and .916 SV%. He will take on the Montreal Canadiens, who have surprisingly won three of their last four games even though they are 28th in goals per game (2.57) and 30th in shots per game (28.0).

Copley allowed one goal on 19 shots (.947 SV%) for his first victory in three starts as he beat Chicago his last time out. The 31-year-old has taken over the Kings' crease due to his 13-3-0 record but has struggled with a 2.79 GAA and .896 SV%. He will face the Philadelphia Flyers, who have lost three of their last five games and are 26th in the NHL in goals per game (2.77).








Bennett suffered a lower-body injury in Monday's loss in New York. He returned to the game briefly in the second period before retiring for the night. Head coach Paul Maurice said he won't be available to play for Tuesday's game because the Panthers don't want this to turn into something long-term.

White has been a healthy scratch since Jan. 14th but will draw back into the Panthers' lineup Tuesday as they take on Pittsburgh. White will replace Sam Bennett (lower body) as he takes a spot on the Panthers' fourth line.

Hellebuyck stopped 25 of 26 shots (.962 SV%) to snap a two-game winning streak as he beat Ottawa in his previous start. The 29-year-old has been one of the league's best goaltenders, with his impressive 23-12-1 record, 2.39 GAA and .924 SV%. He will face the Nashville Predators, who have won three of their last four games after a 5-3 win over Los Angeles last game.
