DeSmith stopped 41 of 42 shots (.976 SV%) for his first win in three games as he beat Colorado in his previous start. The 31-year-old Penguins' backup has been uncharacteristically inconsistent this year, with his 8-10-4 record, 3.23 GAA and .905 SV%. He takes on the Anaheim Ducks, who have surprisingly won four of their last five outings after a 3-2 overtime victory over Chicago last game.

Smith has five assists, 45 SOG, 55 PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through 49 games but is considered day-to-day with a lower-body injury and will not play Thursday vs. Seattle.

Oettinger stoped 32 of 34 shots (.941 SV%) for his first win in four starts as he beat Anaheim in his previous contest. The 24-year-old old is top five in all three major goalie categories, including wins with his 22-7-7 record, GAA with his 2.25 and SV% with his impressive .924. He takes on the Minnesota Wild, who are coming off a 3-2 loss to Arizona but are still 11th in the NHL in goals allowed per game (2.84).

DeSmith allowed five goals on 31 shots (.839 SV%) for his third loss in four starts as he was defeated by San Jose in his previous game.

He takes on the New Jersey Devils, who are coming off a 6-4 loss to Nashville but have won seven of their last nine games.

DeSmith allowed six goals on 39 shots (.846 SV%) but still picked up the victory as he beat Florida in his previous start. The 31-year-old Penguins backup will be relied upon heavily going forward as Tristan Jarry deals with an injury until after the ASG and he will be hoping to improve his 7-9-3 record, 3.34 GAA and .900 SV%. He will face the Washington Capitals, who have lost their last three games after a 3-2 loss to Colorado last game.
