Zacha (upper-body) will remain in New Jersey during the start of the Devils’ road-trip.

Rask (lower-body) will be back between the pipes on Thursday.
Rask allowed four goals on 26 shots in the Bruins win over the Penguins last Thursday.

Korpisalo will make his second straight start on Thursday.
Korpisalo stopped 37 of 38 shots in the Blue Jackets win over the Golden Knights on Tuesday. It was a great outing for Korpisalo, who will start the front-end of the Blue Jackets’ back-to-back tonight vs. the Avalanche. The 23-year-old has gone 5-2-0 with a 2.27 GAA and .931 SV% in eight games on home-ice.
Zacha (upper-body) will not play Thursday vs. the Jets.
Zacha was hurt Tuesday vs. the Canadiens and will not play against Winnipeg on Thursday. Zacha has been held pointless in his last eight games, so his fantasy value has plummeted anyways. Brian Gibbons (thumb) may be ready to replace Zacha in the lineup tonight.
Zacha left Tuesday’s game with an undisclosed injury and did not return.
Zacha played just 8:53 TOI and did not return for the third period of yesterday’s win over the Canadiens. The Devils didn’t have an update on Zacha’s status postgame, so consider him questionable heading into Thursday’s game vs. the Jets.
Rask (lower-body) is on the ice for warmups; expected to back Anton Khudobin up on Tuesday.
McAvoy will miss at least four weeks with a left MCL sprain.
McAvoy got tangled up in the corner during his first shift against the Red Wings over the weekend. The injury ended up being a sprained MCL and will cost him at least one month. The good news is that his season isn’t over and McAvoy should be ready to go for the playoffs.
Goalie Start
Korpisalo will start Tuesday vs. the Golden Knights.
Korpisalo allowed five goals on 34 shots in the Blue Jackets loss in Los Angeles last Thursday. With Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) not available tonight, Korpisalo will face the Golden Knights on home-ice. The matchup isn’t ideal, but the 23-year-old has gone 4-2- 0 with a 2.47 GAA and .924 SV% at Nationwide Arena this season.
Rask is not expected to be available on Tuesday due to a “very minor injury.”
Anton Khudobin started on Saturday because of Rask’s lingering injury. Look for Khudobin to start again on Tuesday but Rask could be back as soon as Thursday.
McAvoy (lower-body) will not play on Tuesday.
McAvoy played just one shift on Saturday and will miss Tuesday’s game vs. the Red Wings. McAvoy will be re-evaluated later on Monday and his status beyond Tuesday’s game could be updated in the next 24 hours. With McAvoy out, Adam McQuaid will re-enter the lineup.
