Vlad Tarasenko will miss six weeks due to hand surgery, so Jaskin has been recalled to round out the Blues roster. Jaskin has one goal and one assist in nine games with the blues this season.
Tarasenko injured his right hand against Nashville over the weekend, will undergo surgery Wednesday. Tarasenko had a goal against the Predators, giving him six points during a five-game streak. The 22-year-old right wing is tied for second on the team with 21 goals. The Blues recalled forward Dmitrij Jaskin from the AHL on an emergency basis.
Reimer allowed three goals on 32 shots in a 4-2 loss to Washington on Sunday. He will make his fourth straight appearance for the first time all season when the Leafs are in Detroit tonight. He was yanked after allowing three goals on 12 in his first start vs. the Red Wings.
Tokarski gets the start instead of Peter Budaj as Carey Price is in Montreal resting after winning last night. Tokarski is 1-0-0 with a 2.91 GAA and .922 SV% in one start and one relief appearance. He has a great spot-start matchup vs. the Sabres.
Enroth stopped 34 of 37 shots in a loss to the Islanders last night. With Michal Neuvirth battling a lower-body injury, Enroth will get the back-to-back starts. He has lost three in a row while allowing eight goals on 91 shots (.912 SV%).
Huberdeau played just 5:13 before retiring to the dressing room for the afternoon. He had five assists in his last seven games coming into today's contest. Consider him day-to-day until the Panthers release an injury update.
Brown is battling an illness as well as a couple of bumps and bruises, so he will likely rest on Monday and be back in the lineup on Thursday.
Petrovic who was just recalled lands on IR for the second time this season. He has been recalled on multiple occasions, but injuries have limited him to just seven games with the Panthers. Colby Robak was recalled on Saturday and will replace Petrovic.
Oshie might not play on Monday because he and his wife are expecting the birth of their first baby. Monitor Oshie's status throughout the day.
This is fantastic news for the Penguins. Earlier in the week there were reports that they don't expect him to be back this season, now he is cleared for full practice. Being cleared for full practice and being cleared to skate is a big difference. Expect Letang to be a full participant this week and if all goes well he could be back soon.
After missing Friday's game, Gagner will be back in the lineup on Sunday vs. the Hurricanes. He will be in his usual spot as the second line pivot and second PP-unit.
Lehner stopped 43 of 48 shots in a 5-4 OT loss to the Habs last night. Lehner looked to be in line for the win, until the Canadiens scored three goals in the final four minutes of the game, including the game-tying goal at 0.3 seconds left. The OT winner was pretty suspect. He appeared to have it covered before it squeaked loose to a wide open Francois Bouillion. It will be tough for a better result tonight with the Avalanche in town.
Laich has been battling a groin injury all season and will not play tonight and could miss the upcoming road-trip. Marcus Johansson will move to the Ovechkin line with Evgeny Kuznetsov going to the second line while Laich is out.
There was no word before the game that Tlusty was battling any sort of injury or illness, but something must be up. Nathan Gerbe will move up into his second line LW spot.
Khudobin allowed four goals on 22 shots in a loss to the Devils on March 8. He took a seat for the last three games, but with Cam Ward starting yesterday, Khudobin gets the call in the second game of the back-to-back set. He has a strong matchup at home vs. the Oilers.
Niemi stopped 35 of 38 shots in a win over the Islanders on Friday. He has now won four straight while positing a 2.00 GAA and .926 SV%. He is one of the best goalies in the NHL right now and the Sharks are sizzling, so get him into your lineup. He stopped 18 shots in a 9-2 win vs. the Rangers back in October.
Gagner will take part in the pre-game warmups and a decision on his availability will be made then. Gagner missed Friday's game and if he misses tonight, the Oilers will dress seven defensemen.
This explains why the Sabres recalled Nathan Lieuwen this morning. This would lead us to believe that Jhonas Enroth will start again, but no official announcement has been made. Neuvirth is day-to-day.
Thomas allowed three goals on 30 shots in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Flames on Friday. In his first two starts with the Stars he has a 2.33 GAA and .917 SV% and should continue his strong play tonight in Winnipeg. After catching fire before the Olympics, the Jets have played very poorly as of late.
Slater has one assist in 16 games this season. Eric Tangradi and Patrice Cormier will fill-in for Slater and fellow fourth-liner Chris Thorburn (foot).
