The Hurricanes saw success in their last two games (2-0-0), outscoring their opposition 6-1 with Brandon Bussi tending the twine, but they will turn to Andersen on Thursday against his former team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 36-year-old Andersen has struggled this season, allowing three or more goals in all but two of his 13 outings (5-6-2). That said, his best performance of the season was a 23-save outing (.958 SV%) in a 4-1 win against another one of his former teams, the Anaheim Ducks. The Hurricanes enter the action on Thursday as -209 home favorites.

Jarry allowed three goals on 13 shots (.769 SV%) in a one-sided 7-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs, but responded in Monday's dominant 5-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers, saving 28 of 29 shots (.966 SV%). The 30-year-old Jarry has played well on most nights this season, boasting a 2.57 GAA and .911 SV% in 11 outings (8-2-0). The Penguins enter Thursday's contest as +157 road underdogs against a Lightning team whose seven-game winning streak ended on Tuesday in a 2-1 loss to the New York Islanders.

Vincent Iorio will draw back into San Jose's lineup on Wednesday against the Washington Capitals, sending Mukhamadullin to the sidelines as a healthy scratch. The 23-year-old Mukhamadullin is averaging 16:29 time-on-ice and has five points (1G / 4A) in 14 games this season.

Walman has missed six games due to injuries this season, but was back at practice on Monday. The 29-year-old defenseman has not played more than 65 games in a season since becoming an NHL regular in 2021-22. Walman has 10 points (3G / 7A) in 17 games this season.

After a miserable 2024-25 season, Jarry has played better in 2025-26, but has struggled in recent outings.

The Penguins enter Monday's contest as +119 road underdogs against a rolling Flyers team that has points in eight of its last 10 games (6-2-2).

Kapanen has been on long-term Injured Reserve since suffering an undisclosed injury on October 19th, and has apparently suffered a setback, exiting Thursday's practice early. Before his injury, the 29-year-old Kapanen had two assists in six games.

Shakir Mukhamadullin and Vincent Desharnais will be healthy scratches on Friday against the Vancouver Canucks, allowing John Klingberg and Vincent Iorio to draw back into the lineup.

The 32-year-old forward is pacing for only the second point-per-game season of his career.

Jarry was stellar, returning from a three-week absence in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Buffalo Sabres, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) and will return to the crease on Friday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. After an ugly 2024-25 season, posting a 3.12 GAA and .892 SV% in 36 appearances (16-12-6), the 30-year-old Jarry continues his resurgent 2025-26 campaign, showcasing a 2.53 GAA and .914 SV% through eight games (6-2-0). The Penguins enter Friday's contest as +121 road underdogs against a Blue Jackets team coming off a 2-1 overtime loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs.

With Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) sidelined, Andersen will tend the twine on Wednesday against the New York Rangers. Andersen has lost four straight outings (0-2-2), posting a .854 SV%, and is off to arguably the worst start of his career. The 36-year-old netminder has allowed three or more goals in all but two of his 12 games this season (5-5-2). Still, the Hurricanes enter Wednesday's contest as -185 home favorites against a Rangers team that is in the bottom half of the league offensively (2.5 GF/GP).

Jarry has not played since November 3rd, recovering from a lower-body injury, but he will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Buffalo Sabres.

The Penguins have lost two straight (0-1-1), outscored 8-2, and hope to rebound on Wednesday, entering their contest against the Sabres as slight -109 home favourites.

The Penguins received serviceable goaltending from Arturs Silovs and Sergei Murashov, so it's unclear what Jarry's workload will be like when he returns to the lineup.
