Martin cleared waivers on Tuesday and was sent to the AHL to start Tuesday's game. He started the 2022-23 season off OK, going 6-1-1 with a .907 SV%, but his game fell off a cliff in December, going 5-14-0 with an .854 SV% in his last 21 appearances. Moving him to Abbotsford (AHL) clears the way for Thatcher Demko to return later this week. Arturs Silovs was recalled in a corresponding move, and he's expected to serve as Collin Delia's backup on Wednesday.

He takes on the Washington Capitals, who snapped a two-game winning streak with a 4-1 loss to San Jose in their last game.

Martin allowed six goals on 35 shots (.829 SV%) for his eight-straight loss as he was walloped by Seattle in his previous start.

He will take on the New York Rangers, who have won three of their last four games after a 5-4 overtime win over Calgary last game.

Slavin missed the Hurricanes' previous game five games due to a lower-body injury and will not return to the lineup Wednesday vs. Buffalo. The 28-year-old has three goals, 12 assists, 74 SOG, six PIMs and a +10 plus/minus through 45 games prior to the injury.

Andersen stopped 24 of 25 shots (.960 SV%) for his fifth win in six games as he beat Boston in his previous start. The 33-year-old has had an injury-riddled campaign, leading to his 10-3-0 record, 2.38 GAA and .909 SV%.

Carrier missed the last five games with an upper-body injury but will be back in the lineup vs. the Rangers on Friday. Look for Carrier, who has 16 points (11G / 5A) in 43 games this season, to skate on a line with Chandler Stephenson and Phil Kessel.

Gostisbehere had nine goals, 20 assists, 99 SOG, 28 PIMs and a -8 plus/minus through 48 games but will be forced to miss 4-6 weeks due to an upper-body injury. It is a big loss for Arizona as the defenseman was second on the team in points.

Andersen already missed a lengthy period of time this season, missing most of November and all of December and is dealing with another injury. It's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined, but expect Pyotr Kochetkov to come up from the AHL to share the crease with Antti Raanta if he misses time.

Andersen stopped 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) for his fourth-straight win as he beat the New York Islanders in his previous start.
