Jarry stopped 33 of the 35 shots he faced in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Panthers. Jarry is 5-2 with a .911 SV% in his last seven starts. He'll face the Canadiens for the second time this season. Jarry was beat three times on 25 shots in a 4-1 loss to Montreal on December 10th.

McDavid left Monday's practice with what was originally called a "bruise" or "charley horse" but GM Ken Holland called it a quad injury on Tuesday. Missing 2-to-3 weeks would mean that McDavid will miss eight-to-13 games, which puts the Oilers playoff hopes in serious jeopardy.

McDavid was on the ice briefly this morning but left the practice session early. McDavid called it a "charley horse" and a "bruise" and said he'll test it during the morning skate/ Head coach Dave Tippett said there's no guarantee that McDavid plays.

After a solid rookie season, Joseph struggled in his first 34 NHL games this season. Since going down to Syracuse, the 23-year-old has scored five goals with nine assists (14 points) in 20 AHL games.

Jarry allowed three goals on 30 shots in the Penguins win over the Flyers on January 31st. He watched Matt Murray start the last two games but will start tonight in Florida. Jarry is 6-5-0 with a 2.55 GAA and .919 SV% on the road this season and gave up three goals on 34 shots in a 4-1 win in his only start against Florida.

On Friday, Andersen was on the ice for the second straight day but won't be available for either game of their Friday/Saturday back-to-back. The recently acquired Jack Campbell will start Friday and head coach Sheldon Keefe did not rule out the possibility of him going on back-to-back nights.

Andersen was forced to leave last night's game after the first period and did not return. Andersen was not on the ice for Tuesday's practice and will not travel to New York for Tuesday's game. Michael Hutchinson will start tomorrow but all-in-all this is pretty good news for Andersen and the Maple Leafs.

Andersen was involved in a collision with Frank Vatrano and did not return to the crease for the second period. Michael Hutchinson replaced Andersen.

Andersen allowed three goals on 34 shots in the Maple Leafs' win in Dallas last Wednesday. Andersen has played well since returning from the bye week, winning two in a row while stopping 65 of the 70 shots (.929 SV%) that he has faced. The Panthers were terrible in Montreal on Saturday but chased Andersen in Florida on January 12th, scoring four goals on 12 shots.

Jarry allowed two goals on 29 shots in the Penguins loss in Philadelphia on January 21st. Jarry has lost his last two starts and is now 3-3-1 with a 2.83 GAA and .907 SV% in January. He's been a lot better on home-ice but his road numbers are decent, going 6-5-0 with a 2.55 GAA and .919 SV% in 11 appearances.

Stillman played in the final 13 games before the bye week, posting four assists while playing 20:26 ATOI. He went to the AHL over the break but has become an important part of the Panthers' blueline.
