Edmonton Oilers News

With the Lightning playing their second game in as many nights, Tomkins will relieve temporary starter Jonas Johansson between the pipes on Tuesday. It's the third start of the year for the 29-year-old rookie who spent the last two seasons in the Swedish Hockey League. Tomkins will be looking for his first win of the season and will be hoping to improve on his .891 SV% and 3.61 GAA. He and the Lightning are slight road favourites at -130 over the Canadiens.

Hamblin was recalled from Bakersfield (AHL) Sunday where he had three goals, two assists, six PIMs and a +4 plus/minus in six games and will make his season debut Monday for the Oilers vs. Vancouver. The 24-year-old appeared in 10 games as a rookie in 2022-23, but failed to pick up a point while getting 12 SOG, two PIMs and a -3 plus/minus.

Despite an even rotation between the pipes with Karel Vejmelka, Ingram has been the superior goalie for the Coyotes thus far and will pick up his sixth start on Tuesday against the Seattle Kraken. Over his last two games (2-0-0), Ingram has saved 57 of 60 shots (.950 SV%). The Kraken are averaging the sixth-fewest goals per game this season (2.66), which bodes well for the Coyotes, who rank in the top half of the league defensively (2.91 GA / GP).

Savoie has been recalled from the Rochester Americans of the AHL, coinciding with Brandon Biro being placed on the injured reserve Monday morning. Savoie scored five points (2G / 3A) in six games with Rochester.

Mangiapane will miss Tuesday's game vs. the Predators but is eligible to return Friday in Toronto. With Mangiapane out, look for Dryden Hunt or Adam Ruzicka (if he's healthy) to draw into the lineup on Tuesday.

Jarry allowed four goals on 27 shots (.852 SV%) in his previous start as he lost his fourth contest in five games but will take the crease Saturday in San Jose. The 28-year-old has struggled mightily in 2023-24, with his 2-5-0 record, .893 SV% and 2.84 GAA. He has the fortune of drawing the winless San Jose Sharks Saturday, who have lost all 10 games this season and have horrendously averaged on one goals per game (32nd in NHL).

Arizona has decided to go back to their convention 12 forward, six defensemen system and Josh Brown will be the odd man out Saturday vs. Winnipeg due to that. The 29-year-old defensemen has a goal, two SOG, four PIMs and a +1 plus/minus in five games played but will unfortunately head to the press box Saturday.

Jarventie had a goal, two assists, two PIMs and a -4 plus/minus in six games with Belleville (AHL) so far this season and has earned his first call-up to Ottawa Saturday. The 21-year-old has yet to make his NHL debut after being Ottawa's 2020 second round pick (33rd overall).

Tomkins will get his second start of the season after serving as backup to Jonas Johansson for the majority of time thus far. In his only NHL game, Tomkins allowed four goals on 33 shots in a 5-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators on October 15th. The Lightning will hope Tomkins fares more favourably against an easier assignment on Thursday as they take on the Columbus Blue Jackets, who rank 26th offensively (2.56 GF / GP) and have lost four consecutive games.

Ingram will return to the Coyotes crease on Thursday after Karel Vejmelka served between the pipes for Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss in Anaheim. Ingram's coming off his best start of the young season, stopping 29 of the 30 shots he faced in Monday's 8-1 victory over the Blackhawks. The 26-year-old netminder owns a .914 SV% and a 2.51 GAA to go along with his 2-1-0 record across four appearances on the season. Ingram and the Coyotes are -130 favourites over the Canadiens on Thursday.

Jarry will start for the Penguins on Monday as he attempts to find more consistency in his game. Through six starts this season, three are very high quality while the other three are borderline dreadful. In his three quality starts (2-1-0), Jarry has a .965 SV% along with two shutouts, contrasting severely with his other three starts (0-3-0), where he has registered a .821 SV%. Jarry and the Penguins will hope to get their games in order on Monday as they are -236 home favourites against an Anaheim Ducks team that has quietly won three straight games, outscoring their opposition 14-9.

Ingram will return to the Coyotes crease for the fourth time this season after he was pulled just 12 minutes into his last start against the Rangers on Tuesday. Ingram surrendered three goals on just nine shots before being lifted in favour of Karel Vejmelka in what was by far Ingram's worst start of the young season. The 26-year-old netminder will be hoping to regain the form he flashed in his first two starts of the season, when he stopped 50 of the combined 54 shots he faced (.926 SV%). He draws a dream matchup tonight with the Coyotes being -190 favourites at home over the Blackhawks.

McDavid missed the last two games with an upper-body injury that he suffered last Saturday vs. the Jets. However, he was a full participant in Saturday's practice which put him on track to be a surprise participant in Sunday's Heritage Classic vs. the Flames. McDavid, who has eight points (2G / 6A) in five games, skated next to Leon Draisaitl and Warren Foegele in Saturday's session.

Jarry stopped all 31 shots that he faced in the Penguins' shutout win over the Avalanche on Thursday. It was shocking performance from Jarry, who allowed a combined eight goals on 48 shots (.833 SV%) in his previous two outings. Tonight he'll take on a Penguins team that has lost three in a row and will be without Thomas Chabot, Artem Zub and Erik Brannstrom.
