Lagace allowed four goals on 28 shots in the Golden Knights’ win in Ottawa on Saturday. Lagace has allowed a combined 15 goals on 104 shots (.856 SV%) in three starts and one relief appearance since becoming the Vegas No.1. Tonight he takes on a Maple Leafs team that has struggled as of late and could be without Auston Matthews (game-time decision).
Wedgewood allowed four goals on 39 shots in the Coyotes loss in Detroit last Tuesday. Antti Raanta returned to the lineup to start the last two games, but it looks like Wedgewood will start the first game of Arizona’s back-to-back. Wedgewood has stopped 63 of 70 shots (.900 SV%) since being acquired by the Coyotes.
Luongo surrounded five goals on 44 shots in the Panthers loss to the Rangers on Saturday. It was an inauspicious return to the crease for Luongo, who will make his second straight start after a six-game absence. Luongo has allowed a combined eight goals on 62 shots (.871 SV%) in two road starts this season.
Darling allowed just on goal on 24 shots but walked away with the loss in Arizona on Saturday. Tonight he will face the 4-7-2 Florida Panthers at PNC Arena. Darling has gone 1-1-2 with a 2.85 GAA and .887 SV% in four starts on home-ice this season.
Rask gave up three goals on 27 shots in the Bruins’ loss to Washington on Saturday. The veteran netminder has gone 2-4-2 with a 2.70 GAA and .905 SV% in eight starts this season.

Head coach Bruce Cassidy announced that Krejci will not play this week and they’ll update his status next Monday ahead of the Bruins West Coast road-trip.
Dubnyk stopped 33 of 34 shots in the Wild’s 2-0 loss to Chicago on Saturday. The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for Dubnyk, who will start his 10th game of the season tonight in Boston. The 31-year-old has gone 1-2-0 with a 3.39 GAA and .899 SV% on the road so far this season.

Wedgewood has stopped 63 of 70 shots (.900 SV%) since being acquired by the Coyotes.
Marchand was not on the ice for the Bruins morning skate and will not play tonight due to an upper-body injury. With Marchand out, Anders Bjork skated on the top-line this morning and Frank Vatrano is expected to draw back into the lineup tonight. Consider Marchand as day-to-day.

Lagace has allowed a combined 15 goals on 104 shots (.856 SV%) in three starts and one relief appearance since becoming the Vegas No.1. Tonight he takes on a Maple Leafs team that has struggled as of late and could be without Auston Matthews (game-time decision).
O’Gara did not record a point in his only game with the Bruins this season, but has two assists in seven games with Providence. It looks like he will draw onto the Boston blueline tonight for his fifth career NHL game.
Malone has split the first month of the season between the NHL and AHL. The 28-year-old centre comes up to take Kailer Yamamoto’s spot on the roster and has registered two goals and one assist in eight games with the Condors.
Yamamoto was this summers No.22 overall selection in 2017 and appeared in nine games with the Oilers but has been sent back to Spokane before the first year of his entry-level kicks in. Yamamoto got some great experience and recorded three assists in those nine games. He goes back to Spokane where he amassed 99 points (42G / 57A) in 65 games last season.
Rask gave up three goals on 27 shots in the Bruins’ loss to Washington on Saturday. The veteran netminder has gone 2-4-2 with a 2.70 GAA and .905 SV% in eight starts this season. Tonight Rask will take on the 5-5-2 Wild at TD Garden, where he has gone 2-2-1 with a 2.38 GAA and .912 SV% so far this year.
Compher has missed the last six games with a thumb injury, but it looks like he will return this weekend during the Avs’ two-game series vs. the Senators in Sweden. Compher could see an expanded role after Matt Duchene was traded to Ottawa—he has one goal and three assists (four points) while averaging 15:10 TOI/GM through eight games this season.
Matthews was on the ice for the morning skate, but left after roughly seven minutes and his status for tonight’s game is in doubt. This is bad news for the Maple Leafs, who have lost five of their last six games coming into tonight. Matthews leads the Maple Leafs in goals (10) and points (18). If he is unavailable, William Nylander will shift to centre.
Holtby allowed two goals on 33 shots in the Capitals win in Boston on Saturday. Holtby is riding a three-game winning streak while stopping 104 of the last 111 shots that he has faced (.937 SV%). Holtby is virtually matchup proof, but he is a definite must-start tonight with the 2-12-1 Coyotes in town.

Andersen gave up six goals on 32 shots in the Maple Leafs’ 6-4 loss in St. Louis Saturday. Andersen has struggled recently, losing four of his last five starts while allowing a combined 19 goals on 167 shots (.886 SV%). The Maple Leafs have recalled struggled as of lat, but draw a nice home matchup against the banged up Golden Knights.
Kamenev, 21, was a second round pick in 2014 (No.42 overall) and started the season with Milwaukee (AHL) where he had eight points (3G / 5A) in nine games. Kamenev is NHL-ready, but the Predators were deep on the wing, so don’t be surprised if he gets a chance with the Avalanche in the near future. He has no points in two career NHL games.
