Murphy served as Justin Peters backup for 10 games while Cam Ward was on IR. Ward was activated and will start tonight so Murphy heads back to Charlotte where he is 1-2-0 with a 3.81 GAA and .873 SV%.
Mashinter failed to record a points while averaging 4:34 TOI in six games with the Rangers.
Phillips has six assists in 19 games this season. Monitor his status prior to tomorrow's matchup with the Flyers.
Montoya allowed four goals on 28 shots in a loss to the Blackhawks on October 6. Ondrej Pavelec has been fantastic as of late, but Montoya will get the nod on the second day of a back-to-back. Montoya has a good matchup vs. a Flames team who have lost six in a row.
"He has a moderate groin strain and so he's more week-to-week right now," Noel told reporters Sunday morning. "That's pretty much where he's at. How many weeks? We'll just deal with week-to-week. We have to see how it progresses and stuff like that." Bogosian was hurt during the second period of Winnipeg's 3-2 shootout win over Philadelphia Friday evening. With Bogosian out, defenceman Zach Redmond made his first regular-season NHL appearance since he suffered a horrifying cut to his femoral artery during practice on Feb. 21. But while Redmond drew into the lineup, it was Keaton Ellerby who took Bogosian's customary position with Toby Enstrom against the Wild.
Ilya Bryzgalov's Oilers debut will have to wait while Dubnyk starts tomorrow vs. Columbus. He stopped 33 of 35 shots in a win over the Flames on Saturday. Despite a strong matchup tomorrow, Dubnyk's 4-10-1 record with a 3.54 GAA and .889 SV% doesn't provide owners with any confidence. He is only relevant in deep leagues.
Weber has proven to be a serviceable NHL defenceman since being drafted in 2007. However, he has found himself in a log jam on the blueline in Vancouver, but could be claimed before noon tomorrow by a team lacking D depth.
Dvorak missed the last two games after being injured last Tuesday vs. Colorado. Dvorak is a bottom-6 forward in Carolina and does not have much fantasy appeal. He has three goals in 15 games.
Hartman, 19, was the Blackhawks first round pick (30th overall) in this year's NHL Entry Draft. The 5-foot-11, 181 lbs. forward had 60 points (23G / 37A), a plus-29 rating and 120 PIMs in 56 games with the Plymouth Whalers last season. In 2013-14 he has 21 points (10G / 11A), a minus-14 rating and 38 PIMs in 20 games with Plymouth.
DeKeyser has acclimated himself well in his first full NHL season. He is averaging 21:47 TOI but has seen a recent bump in minutes because of the injury to Jonathan Ericsson and his overall strong play. DeKeyser has two goals and seven assists in 21 games this season and should be a waiver wire consideration for team's lacking depth on the blueline.
Fleury allowed three goals on 21 shots in a loss to the Devils on Saturday. Fleury has lost four of his last five starts with a 2.63 GAA and .889 SV%. He will take on a Ducks team who is also on a losing skid, he should make for a solid start.
Smith has missed the last six games after suffering a shoulder injury on November 2. Once considered a top-prospect with loads of offensive upside, Smith had just eight assists in 34 games last season and has only recorded a single assist with a minus-7 rating in 11 games this year. The Red Wings may dress seventh defensemen tomorrow, so it is unknown where Smith will slot in.
Weiss skated this morning but Mike Babcock said that Weiss is not ready to go tomorrow, and the Red Wings will go with seven defensemen. Consider Weiss questionable for Thursday.
Alfredsson will miss his third straight game on Tuesday. The 40-year-old winger has three goals and 11 assists in his first 19 games with the Red Wings. Consider Alfie questionable for Thursday's contest.
Morin, 29, was recalled from Texas on November 12 and appeared in Dallas' last three contests, where he registered two shots and a plus-1 rating.

Morin was also selected as the AHL Player of the Month for October, registering 19 points in eight games (8G / 11A).
Rome, 30, has skated in eight games for Texas this season, registering one assist and a plus-1 rating. The 6-foot-1, 220-pound defenseman was Los Angeles' fourth-round selection (104th overall) in the 2002 NHL Draft and was signed by Dallas as a free agent on July 1, 2012.
Beleskey has not played since October 5 because of a broken thumb. He was a full participant in practice on Sunday and this morning and it appears as if he will play with Nick Bonino and Teemu Selanne.
Koivu was a full participant in Ducks practice on Sunday and this morning. He has missed the last 10 games since being injured on October 27.
Kuemper has appeared in one game for Minnesota this season, he allowed three goals on seven shots (5.63 GAA / .571 SV%) in a loss. He is 3-7-0 with a 2.97 GAA and .908 SV% with Iowa this season.
Gustafsson did not appear in a game for Minnesota and will return to Iowa where he is 3-1-0 with a 2.45 GAA and .920 SV%. Darcy Kuemper has been recalled to backup Josh Harding.
