Tarasov will start on Thursday vs. Pittsburgh.

The Blue Jackets have lost five straight, being outscored 26-9, and will turn to Tarasov between the pipes to attempt to stop the bleeding in a match against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

The Blue Jackets enter action as +194 road underdogs.

Gibson will start in Seattle on Tuesday.

Gibson will be back between the pipes for the Ducks on Tuesday after Lukas Dostal made rare back-to-back starts on Thursday and Sunday. Gibson will be eager to snap a personal four-game losing streak, with his last victory coming in the form a 6-4 win over the Sharks way back on February 29th. The Ducks' long-term goaltender is the owner of a 13-24-2 record and an .891 SV% on the season. Things won't get any easier for Gibson on Tuesday as the Ducks find themselves as +170 underdogs in Seattle.

Gibson (personal) returned to practice on Monday after missing Sunday's contest.

Gibson was not available in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Tampa Bay Lighting due to personal reasons but was back at practice on Monday. Gibson has struggled between the pipes lately, allowing four or more goals in four straight games (1-3-0), but should return to the crease this week.

Larkin returned to practice in a full capacity on Wednesday for the first time since suffering a lower-body injury on March 2nd and appears ready to play on Thursday. Before his injury, Larkin led the Red Wings with 54 points (26G / 28A) in 55 games while averaging 3.0 shots per night.

Arvidsson (lower body) was removed from Long-Term Injured Reserve and will be a game-time decision on Wednesday vs. Minnesota.

Arvidsson has played only four games this season due to various injuries, with his most recent lower-body ailment preventing him from playing the last 14 games. His return to practice on Monday was a promising sign for the high-volume shooting winger, who will be a game-time decision on Wednesday. He has two points (0G / 2A) and 12 shots in four games.
