Hartman was a late scratch on Friday with an upper-body injury. The Blackhawks said that he didn't feel right at the morning skate so they held him out vs. the Golden Knights. Monitor Hartman's status heading into Sunday's game vs. the Oilers.
The Blue Jackets had Friday and Saturday off, so Korpisalo heads to the AHL to get a start over the weekend. This suggests that Sergei Bobrovsky will get the start on Sunday, which comes at no surprise.

Raanta gave up two goals on 39 shots in the Coyotes overtime win over the Predators on Thursday. It was a great outing for Raanta, who has won two of his last three starts while stopping 83 of 90 shots (.922 SV%). The Rangers comes in having lost four of their last six (2-2-2).
Elliott allowed four goals on 31 shots in the Flyers win over the Islanders on Thursday. After a rough night in Pittsburgh, things didn’t get much better against the Isles but it was enough to record his 15th win of the season. This afternoon he gets a chance against his former team but comes in having allowed at least three goals in four consecutive games.

Reimer allowed three goals on 26 shots in the Panthers loss in Minnesota on Tuesday. The loss snapped a five-game winning streak for Reimer, who will start what would have been the tail-end of a back-to-back after last night’s game in Boston was cancelled due to inclement weather. Reimer is 1-0-1 with a 1.42 GAA and .959 SV% in two starts vs. Detroit this season.
Johnson stopped all 10 shots that he faced after replacing Robin Lenher in last night’s blowout loss in Minnesota. With the Sabres on a back-to-back Johnson will get a shot tonight in Winnipeg.
