Robinson was called up from Cleveland on Sunday and will replace Emil Bemstrom in the lineup on Tuesday. Robinson has five points (3G / 2A) in 14 AHL games and three goals in seven NHL games this season.
Primeau, 20, was a seventh-round pick of the Canadiens in 2017. After two years at Northeastern University, he turned pro this year and is 7-4-1 with a 2.58 GAA and .910 SV%. Primeau could make his NHL debut during the Habs' back-to-back on Thursday/Friday.
Fast was listed as a game-time decision but it looks like he'll play on the Rangers third-line with Filip Chytil and Brendan Lemieux. Fast has three goals and six assists in 24 games this season.
Fast was banged up in Saturday's game in New Jersey but ended up finishing the game. Head coach David Quinn called him a game-time decision but his lack of offence makes him a low-end fantasy asset regardless.
Gostisbehere was a healthy scratch for the last three games but will replace Philippe Myers in the lineup on Friday. Gostisbehere has been held pointless for six straight games and has just six points (1G / 5A) in 22 games this season.
Robinson has played in seven straight games but will be replaced by Riley Nash against the Penguins. Robinson has registered three goals in seven games with the Blue Jackets this season.
Gostisbehere was a bit of a surprise scratch on Saturday afternoon but will be held out of Monday's game as well. With Gostisbehere out, the Flyers will roll with a third-pair of Robert Hagg and Philippe Myers and Travis Sanheim will see PP2 time.
Kotkaniemi has missed the last seven games with a groin issue but will play against the Devils. Kotkaniemi has had a slow start offensively, scoring just two goals with one assist in 12 games.
Martinook has been out since October 8th after undergoing core muscle surgery. Martinook has one assist in four games this season. Brian Gibbons was waived on Friday, so Martinook will return to the lineup on Saturday.
The Canadiens are expecting Kotkaniemi to play one of their two weekend games, so look for him to play Saturday. Jordan Weal will replace Ryan Poehling, who replaced Kotkaniemi originally.
Kotkaniemi has missed the last six games but will play either Friday in Washington or Saturday vs. New Jersey. The Canadiens don't want the second-year centre to overdue it in his return from injury but it's a good sign that he'll play in at least one of the two games.
Robinson was called up on Monday because Nick Foligno was suspended for three games. The 24-year-old has five points (3G / 2A) in 14 games with Cleveland (AHL) this season and has no points in 14 career NHL games. He is expected to skate on the fourth line with Riley Nash and Emil Bemstrom.
Kotkaniemi will miss his sixth consecutive game with a groin injury and the Habs maintain that he is day-to-day. Montreal doesn't play again until Friday/Saturday, so monitor Kotkaniemi's status as they week progresses towards their back-to-back.
Robinson has three goals and two assists in 14 AHL games this season. The 24-year-old comes up and could make his season debut on Tuesday. He has failed to record a point in 14 career NHL games.
Kotkaniemi practiced on Wednesday and took part in Thursday's morning skate but remains sidelined for Thursday's game in Philadelphia. The Haas are hopeful that Kotkaniemi will be able to return to the lineup on Saturday.
Kotkaniemi missed three games with a groin injury but he will accompany the team to Philadelphia, which makes it possible for him to make his return to the lineup. The second-year centre has had a slow start to the year, scoring two goals with one assist in 12 games before getting hurt.
Fast missed Sunday’s game against the Bruins due to personal reasons but is expected to draw back in on Tuesday. Fast would likely replace Mika Zibanejad, who is questionable with an upper-body issue. Fast has two goals and three assists in eight games this season.
