Lazar suffered an undisclosed injury, did not play on Wednesday, and will be a game-time decision on Friday against the Ottawa Senators. Lazar has been a regular in the Devils lineup this season, scoring 10 points (4G / 6A) in 30 games while playing predominantly Michael McLeod and Nathan Bastian.
Roslovic has not played since November 12th, a 21-game absence, due to a fractured ankle and is expected to make his return to the lineup on Friday against the Toronto Maple Leafs despite not participating in line rushes at practice on Thursday. Before his injury, Roslovic played predominantly on a line with Boone Jenner and Johnny Gaudreau, scoring eight points (2G / 6A) in 14 games.
Karel Vejmelka was between the pipes for the Coyotes on Wednesday in their 5-4 overtime win over the Avalanche, but the team will shift back to their early-season strategy of alternating starts and turn to Ingram on Friday against the Anaheim Ducks. Ingram has lost the magic he had in late November, dropping four of his last five games (1-4-0), posting a subpar .873 SV%. That said, Ingram and the Coyotes will have a favourable matchup against a Ducks team that ranks fourth worst in the league offensively (2.65 GF / GP) despite defeating the Vegas Golden Knights 5-2 in their last game.

Jarry has only started one of the last five games for the Penguins, an atrocious 10-save performance (.714 SV%) in a 7-0 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on December 16th, but will return to the crease on Wednesday evening. Omitting his most recent performance, Jarry has played well, allowing three or fewer goals in eight straight games (3-3-2), posting a .927 SV%. The Penguins are slight +101 road underdogs against a New York Islanders team that has points in three straight (2-0-1).
Lazar suffered an undisclosed injury and will not play on Wednesday against the Columbus Blue Jackets as he is considered day-to-day. Lazar has been a regular in the Devils lineup this season, scoring 10 points (4G / 6A) in 30 games while playing predominantly Michael McLeod and Nathan Bastian.
After winning eight straight, the Oilers have suddenly lost three in a row, being outscored 15-6, and will turn to Pickard on the front end of a back-to-back on Thursday to try and stop the bleeding. Pickard has four appearances with the Oilers this season, most recently allowing five goals on 39 shots (.872 SV%) in a 5-1 loss to the Florida Panthers on December 16th. The Oilers will face off against a New Jersey Devils team also in a skid, being outscored 8-3 over their last two contests (0-1-1).
After two poor outings, Ingram has sported consecutive strong starts and will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Ottawa Senators. In his last two games (1-1-0), Ingram has saved 60 of 63 shots (.952 SV%), including his league-leading third shutout of this season. The Coyotes have a favourable matchup on Tuesday against a Senators team searching for their first win in four games and is playing their first game after firing head coach D.J. Smith.
Ingram has started eight of the last nine games for the Coyotes and will start again on Friday against the San Jose Sharks. The Coyotes have lost four straight but are sizeable -184 home favourites against a Sharks team that has won three of their last four games (3-1-0). After an otherworldly stretch in late November, Ingram has allowed 12 goals on 96 shots (.878 SV%) during his current three-game skid. That said, he was terrific in a losing effort on Tuesday, saving 40 of 43 shots (.930 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Brown will sit this one out as the Coyotes look to keep things fresh on the tail-end of their back-to-back. He has one goal and two assists in 20 games with the Coyotes this season.
Ingram served as the backup yesterday for the first time in over two weeks and will return to the starter's crease on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. After an incredible five-game stretch (5-0-0) that included two shutouts and a marvellous .968 SV%, Ingram has dropped two straight contests, allowing nine goals on 55 shots (.836 SV%). Ingram has been resilient all season and will look to rebound despite the Coyotes being +173 road underdogs against a Penguins team that has struggled to score goals, losing four straight contests (0-2-2).
Despite a losing 8-10-2 record, Jarry is arguably stringing together the best season of his career, showcasing a 2.48 GAA and .918 SV%, along with leading the league with three shutouts. The Penguins have hovered around .500 all season (11-12-3), partly due to their inability to provide Jarry with ample goal support, highlighted by their 30th-ranked powerplay (9.5%). That said, Jarry and the low-scoring Penguins are still -192 home favourites against an Arizona Coyotes team that played last night and is amid a three-game losing streak (0-3-0).
