Campbell allowed two goals on 28 shots in the Kings 3-1 loss in San Jose on January 7th. Campbell has gone 0-2-0 despite stopping 72 of the 75 shots (.960 SV%) that he has faced since returning to the NHL on New Year’s Day. Tonight he take on the team that drafted him back in 2010--he comes in at 1-6-0 with a 2.34 GAA and .930 SV% on the road.
Chiarot was not on the ice for the Jets’ morning skate and will not play on Tuesday. Luckily for the Jets, Tyler Myers is set to return from a lower-body injury of his own and will replace Chiarot on the back-end.
With Danny DeKeyser set to return to the Red Wings lineup on Tuesday, Rasmussen has been placed on IR so they could keep Filip Hronek on the roster. Rasmussen won’t play Tuesday and will probably remain out through Friday.
Mrazek stopped 27 of 29 shots in the Hurricanes loss in Tampa Bay on Thursday. The loss snapped a brief two-game losing skid for Mrazek, who has played very well over the last month—he is 4-3-0 with a 2.47 GAA, .917 SV% and one shutout over his last seven. This afternoon he faces a Predators team that has won five of their last seven (5-0-2).
Mrazek was on the winning side of Sunday’s game in Ottawa despite allowing four goals on 31 shots. Mrazek has won two in a row while giving up a combined seven goals and comes into Thursday at 5-5-0 with a 2.64 GAA, .912 SV% and one shutout in his last 10 starts. He has been inconsistent and should be left on your bench during a brutal road matchup in Tampa Bay.
Talbot was pulled after giving up four goals on 17 shots in the Oilers loss to the Sharks on Tuesday. Mikko Koskinen didn’t fare much better, so Talbot will go again tonight vs. the Panthers. Talbot has gone 1-1-0 with a 2.24 GAA, .930 SV% and one shutout in his first three appearances of the 2019 calendar year. Talbot allowed three goals on 32 shots in a 4-1 loss in his first start against the Panthers this season.
Talbot stopped all 39 shots that he faced in the Oilers shutout win in Anaheim on Sunday. After entering in relief on Saturday and standing on his head on Sunday, Talbot earned a second straight start tonight in San Jose. Talbot allowed seven goals on 40 shots vs. the Sharks right after Christmas, so look elsewhere for a reliable starter tonight.
Rasmussen was a late scratch from Sunday’s lineup and will miss his second straight game on Tuesday. Monitor the rookie’s status as the Red Wings head into their back-to-back on Friday/Saturday.
Simek has missed the last two games with a concussion but could be back Monday vs. the Kings. Simek is officially questionable so monitor his status as the Sharks hit the ice for warmups. Simek has recorded five points (1G / 4A) in 14 games since being recalled from the AHL.
Chiasson has missed the last three games with a knee injury but will play Saturday in Los Angeles. Chiasson was hot before getting hurt, scoring five goals with two assists in his last nine games. However, he will start on a line with Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and not Connor McDavid on Saturday.
Tarasenko missed Thursday’s game vs. the Capitals but will be back on the lineup on Saturday. Tarasenko, who will skate with Tyler Bozak and Zach Sanford, has 11 goals and 11 assists (22 points) in 37 games this season.
Tarasenko missed Wednesday’s practice and Thursday’s morning skate but remains a game-time decision for tonight’s game vs. the Capitals. Tarasenko is expected to skate with Ryan O’Reilly and David Perron if he plays and will be replaced by Zach Sanford if he doesn’t play.
