Alexeyev will play his first game with the Capitals since November 24th as Trevor van Riemsdyk will be a healthy scratch. In 10 games, the 24-year-old Alexeyev has one goal, six shots, and 11 blocks.
Fagemo played four games with the Nashville Predators earlier this season, scoring one point (1G / 0A), but was later placed on waivers and claimed by the Kings. The 23-year-old has spent the entirety of the season since with the Ontario Reign of the AHL, scoring an impressive 33 points (20G / 13A) in 24 games.
Sogaard will likely make his first start of the season for a Senators club struggling immensely and is without goaltender Anton Forsberg. Sogaard has had a stellar campaign with the Belleville Senators of the AHL, posting a 2.48 GAA and .920 SV% in 16 games (8-5-2). The 23-year-old Sogaard spent a sizeable portion of the 2022-23 season in Ottawa but struggled to make an impact, posting a 3.32 GAA and .889 SV% in 19 appearances (8-6-3). The Senators, losers of 12 of their last 16 (4-12-0), are +104 home underdogs against a high-scoring Colorado Avalanche club that was defeated 4-3 by the Montreal Canadiens last night.
After allowing nine goals in two games (0-2-0) and posting an abysmal .795 SV%, Shesterkin responded with a strong effort in his last outing, saving 24 of 25 shots (.960 SV%) in a 2-1 win over the Washington Capitals. Shesterkin has been inconsistent this season, allowing four or more goals 10 times through 27 games, compared to only seven times through 53 games when he won the Vezina trophy two seasons ago. The Rangers are sizeable -203 home favourites on Tuesday against a Seattle Kraken club that played last night and lost 3-0 to the Pittsburgh Penguins, ending their nine-game winning streak.
After allowing three or more goals in six straight games (2-4-0), Kuemper served as the backup to Charlie Lindgren on a back-to-back set over the weekend but will return to the crease on Tuesday in a favourable matchup against the Anaheim Ducks. The Ducks pulled off an improbable 5-4 overtime victory over the Florida Panthers last night, but, playing on back-to-back nights, the Capitals are sizeable -171 home favourites.
Myers was recalled along with fellow defender Maxwell Crozier on Tuesday, but with Tampa Bay off until Thursday, it is unclear how or if they will decide to utilize them in their lineup. Crozier made his NHL debut in the last Lightning game, playing 13:00 time-on-ice. The 26-year-old Myers has played four games with the Lightning this season, registering six shots, seven hits, and five blocks while averaging 13:08 time-on-ice.

After a sizeable stint with the Dallas Stars, Murray was sent down to Texas (AHL) as Jake Oettinger (lower-body) finally made his return to the lineup, only to be recalled once again as Scott Wedgewood was injured in his previous outing. Murray played one game with Dallas, an impressive 23-save shutout victory over the Minnesota Wild less than two weeks ago.
Sogaard will likely make his first start of the season for a Senators club struggling immensely and is without goaltender Anton Forsberg.

Ingram will start for the third time in the last four games for the Coyotes on Tuesday night in Calgary. Ingram is coming off a sensational 38-save shutout on Saturday in a 6-0 victory over the Minnesota Wild. His .915 SV% over his last eight appearances (4-2-0) would typically be a serviceable total but is indicative of his inconsistent play lately, given that he has three shutouts over that span. The Coyotes are +146 road underdogs against the Flames, who defeated them 6-2 less than a week ago, a game in which Ingram saved 16 of 18 shots (.889 SV%) after entering in relief.
Hayden has scored four goals with six assists (10 points) in 33 AHL games this season. If he plays on Tuesday, it will be his Kraken debut and his first NHL game since March 18th, 2023.
Beniers missed Monday's game in Pittsburgh with an upper-body injury and was placed on IR after the game to make room for John Hayden to be recalled from the AHL. With Beniers landing on IR, he'll miss at least one week.
The Kings announced after the game that Lizotte is doubtful for Tuesday's game in Dallas. Assuming he is unable to go on Tuesday, the team should have an updated timeline for his return on Wednesday when they arrive back in Los Angeles.
With Ivan Prosvetov (undisclosed) unavailable, Annunen will get the chance to serve as Alexandar Georgiev's backup. Annunen has two NHL appearances under his belt this season, posting an .854 SV% and a 3.58 GAA.
