Grebenkin is averaging 9:20 time-on-ice and has three points (1G / 2A) in 11 games this season. Expect Nicolas Deslaurier as a likely candidate to replace Grebenkin in the lineup.
Chabot suffered an upper-body injury in the first period of Tuesday's game and was unable to return. He will not play on Thursday against the Boston Bruins, and is being reevaluated. The 28-year-old defenseman has 10 points (2G / 8A) in 17 games this season.
Foerster was drafted 23rd overall by the Flyers in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft and has shown strides towards becoming a reliable offensive producer at the NHL level. After scoring a career-high 43 points (25G / 18A) in 81 games last season, he was off to a strong start in 2025-26, with seven points (4G / 3A) in 11 games. He returned to practice on Tuesday and could return to his regular deployment in the Flyers' top-six on Wednesday against the Edmonton Oilers.
After two poor outings (1-1-0), allowing eight goals on 39 combined shots (.795 SV%), Vladar returned to his elite early-season form in his last outing, saving 23 of 24 shots (.958 SV%) in a 3-1 win over the Nashville Predators. The 28-year-old Czech goalie will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Edmonton Oilers, looking to build on a solid 2.18 GAA and .917 SV% through nine games this season (6-3-0). The Flyers enter Wednesday's contest as +118 home underdogs against an Oilers team that has lost three of their last four (1-3-0).
Hamilton left last Thursday's game vs. Montreal with an undisclosed injury, and has been sidelined since. He is expected to miss at least the next three games while the team is on a road trip. With Hamilton out, Simon Nemec has seen an expanded role, including deployment on the team's top powerplay unit.
Brown played the first 11 games for the Devils this season, but has not played since. The 31-year-old Brown is averaging 15:47 time-on-ice and has six points (5G / 1A) in 11 games this season. He will likely miss the next three games while the team is on the road.
Andersen seemed like he did not want to exit the game after a collision, indicating that he may have been pulled for precautionary reasons by a concussion spotter. That said, head coach Rod Brind'Amour has yet to provide an update on Andersen's status. With the Hurricanes already carrying three goalies between Andersen, Pyotr Kochetkov, and Brandon Bussi, the team likely won't rush Andersen back into the lineup if he is not 100%.
Demko has battled a myriad of injuries over the previous several seasons and will be sidelined once again. The positive news is this injury is not related to the injury that kept him out of games this past weekend, nor the injury that sidelined him for half of the 2024-25 season. Expect Kevin Lankinen to see a heavy workload between the pipes during Demko's absence.
Nichushkin exited Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks due to a lower-body injury after only 12:57 time-on-ice. The 30-year-old Nichushkin has 12 points (5G / 7A) in 17 games this season, and has been more productive lately, with nine points (3G / 6A) in his last 10 games. Colorado's head coach Jared Bednar was not able to provide a concrete update on Nichushkin's timeline.
The Jets have only scored two combined goals in their last three games (0-3-0) and will need Hellebuyck to be near-perfect on Tuesday if their offense continues to struggle. The 32-year-old goalie, a two-time reigning Vezina Trophy winner, has been solid this season, posting a 2.30 GAA and .922 SV% through 11 games, but only has a 6-5-0 record to show for it, as his team ranks in the bottom half of the league offensively. The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as -116 road favorites against the Vancouver Canucks.
Wood will return to the lineup after missing Monday's game with an illness. Zach Aston-Reese will sit in his place.
Aston-Reese will fall right back out of the lineup after drawing in on Monday. Miles Wood (illness) returns to the lineup in his place.
Johnson appears to be the latest Blue Jacket to fall victim to the illness circulating their dressing room. He took warmups on Tuesday but did not participate in line rushes. Cole Sillinger (illness) will return to the lineup in his place.
Sillinger will return to the lineup after missing Monday's game with an illness. He will slot in for Kent Johnson, who is now expected to be out with an illness.
With Joey Daccord on Injured Reserve, Seattle continues rolling with their tandem of Matt Murray and Philipp Grubauer. Murray returns to the crease on Tuesday after a strong performance in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Dallas Stars, saving 22 of 24 shots (.917 SV%). The 31-year-old Murray continues his search for his first win of the season, posting a 2.72 GAA and .900 SV% through three appearances (0-2-0). The Kraken enter Tuesday's contest as -113 home favorites against a Columbus Blue Jackets team coming off a disappointing 5-4 overtime loss to the Edmonton Oilers last night.
Stolarz's absence to start the second period of Tuesday's was originally thought to be performance related after he gave up three goals in the first, but it appears now it was due to an apparent upper-body injury. We should get an update on his status ahead of Toronto's game against the Kings on Thursday.
Matthews suffered a lower-body injury after being hit by Nikita Zadorov halfway through the second period of Tuesday's game and was unable to return. We should get an update on his status ahead of Toronto's game against the Kings on Thursday.
