Stewart last played in the NHL in 2017-18, where he had three points (1G / 2A) in seven games with the Flames. He spent last year playing with the Nottingham Panthers in England, scoring six goals with seven assists (13 points) in 23 games.
Gibbons has one goal and three assists (four points) in four games with the Checkers this season. He has 67 points (25G / 42A) in 189 career NHL games with the Penguins, Blue Jackets, Devils, Ducks and Senators. He will likely make his Hurricanes debut on Tuesday.
Gauthier did not record a point while playing just 8:25 ATOI and returns to the AHL ahead of the Hurricanes California road-trip. Brian Gibbons was recalled to take his spot on the roster.
With Jacob Markstrom away from the team to attend a personal matter, Demko will make his season debut against Detroit. Demko split his 2018-19 season between the AHL and NHL. He was 8-6-0 with a .911 SV% with Utica (AHL) and was 4-3-1 with a 2.81 GAA and .913 SV% in the NHL. He could see two or three starts this week, making him a great pickup.
Hart gave up two goals on 24 shots in the Flyers loss in Vancouver last Saturday. Hart has had a tremendous start to the season, going 2-0-1 with a 1.62 GAA, .938 SV% and one shutout. Hart has quickly answered any of the doubt surrounding him entering the season and he has firmly entered the No.1 fantasy goalie tier. Tonight he takes on an Oilers team that have started 5-1-0 while averaging 3.67 GF/gm (t-8th).
Carter Hart started the first three games of the season but Elliott will make his season debut in Calgary, the front-end of a west coast back-to-back. The former Flames’ netminder was 11-11-1 with a 2.96 GAA and .907 SV% in 26 appearances last season. Calgary’s offence hasn’t been great through six games but it’s still not a very good streaming matchup for Elliott.
Andersen allowed two goals on 27 shots in the Maple Leafs win in Detroit on Saturday. The win snapped a brief two-game losing skid for Andersen, who is now 3-2-0 with a 3.38 GAA and .886 SV% in his first five starts. He is a must-start against the 1-4-0 Wild, who are on the tail-end of a back-to-back and are averaging just 2.40 goals per game.
Holtby allowed six goals on 38 shots in the Capitals loss in Nashville last Thursday. Since opening the season with a victory, Holtby has lost three in a row while allowing a combined 13 goals on 92 shots (.859 SV%). Tonight he faces an undefeated Avalanche team that rank t-4th in goal-scoring (4.00 GF/pg) through four games.
Compher is set to miss his third straight game and he has been moved to IR because Ian Cole (hip) is set to make his season debut on Monday and they needed to open up a roster spot.
Barberio had four shots while averaging 16:50 TOI/gm in the last two games. He will be replaced by Ian Cole (hip), who will be making his season debut in Washington.
Cole has missed the first four games of the regular season but will replace Mark Barberio in the lineup on Monday. Cole had 15 points (2G / 13A) in 71 games last season.
Grubauer made 39 saves on 41 shots in Colorado’s win over the Bruins last Thursday. Grubauer’s tenure as their No.1 netminder has gotten off to a fantastic start, going 3-0-0 with a 2.34 GAA and .931 SV% in his first three starts. He has a difficult matchup in Washington—the Capitals are 3-1-2 while averaging 3.17 goals for per game (17th in the NHL) though six contests.
Hutton allowed four goals on 27 shots in the Sabres’ win over the Canadiens last Wednesday. Linus Ullmark has started two out of the last three games, so Hutton will get back between the pipes on Monday. He has not lost a game this season while posting a 2.32 GAA and .908 SV% in three starts. Dating back to the start of last season, Hutton is 15-9-2 with a .917 SV% in his last 26 starts in Buffalo.
Smith stopped 20 of 21 shots in the Oilers win in New York on Saturday. Smith has won all three of his starts with the Oilers, allowing eight goals on 86 shots (.907 SV%). Tonight he faces a Blackhawks team that hasn’t won a game this season, despite averaging 3.00 goals for per game (t-18th in the NHL).
Perlini had one shot in 7:49 TOI on Saturday but will come right back out of the lineup on Monday. Alex Nylander will draw in on the fourth line.
Nylander was a healthy scratch on Saturday but will replace Brendan Perlini on Monday. Nylander who has one goal on two shots in two games will re-enter the lineup on the fourth line with Ryan Carpenter and Zack Smith.
Hawryluk has been in the lineup for the last four games, posting a minus-3 rating, two shots and two PIMS while averaging just 7:54 TOI/gm. Hawryluk will be replaced by Henrik Borgstrom in the Panthers’ bottom-6.
Borgstrom has been a healthy scratch for the last two games but will replace Jayce Hawryluk on Monday afternoon. Borgstrom has no points, one shot and two PIMS in three games this season.
Crawford gave up five goals on 34 shots in the Blackhawks loss to the Sharks last Thursday. Robin Lehner started Saturday vs. the Jets, but they will go back to Crawford tonight vs. the Oilers. He has given up a combined nine goals on 72 shots (.875 SV%) in his two starts and the Oilers come in as the second-highest scoring team in the league (4.20 GF/gm) and undefeated (5-0-0).
