Monahan left Monday's game vs. Vancouver after playing just 10 shifts and 10:15 TOI and will be questionable to play Tuesday vs. Seattle. The 28-year-old has been enjoying a resurgent bounce-back season in his first year in Montreal having six goals and 17 points with 55 SOG through 25 GP.

Jones allowed a whopping eight goals on 35 shots (.771 SV%) yet still sealed the win in his last start vs. Los Angeles.

Wright had four goals in his last five games with the Coachella Firebirds (AHL) and will make his way back into Seattle's lineup after being recalled Monday.

Knight stopped 35 of 36 shots (.972 SV%) for his second straight victory in his last start, a 5-1 win over Seattle. The 21-year-old has enjoyed an excellent season, with his .923 SV%, 2.49 GAA and 8-3-3 record.

Vanecek allowed four goals on 24 shots (.833 SV%) as he lost only his second contest in 14 appearances in an overtime loss to Nashville.

Toews has eight goals and six assists with a -10 plus/minus through 24 games but is in danger of missing his first game of the 2022-23 season due to illness as he is a game-time decision Tuesday. If he is unable to play the Blackhawks will role with seven defensemen.
