The Sabres will turn to Levi for the tail-end of their back-to-back after Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen got the call for Monday's game in Seattle. It will be Levi's first NHL game since January 24th, a game in which he allowed just three goals on 40 shots in a 5-3 victory over the Kings. The Sabres opted to send Levi down to Rochester (AHL) shortly thereafter in order to assure him more playing time as Luukkonen ran away with the starting job. Levi will be hoping to stake a claim for more playing time after amassing an 11-5-3 record to go along with a .927 SV% across 19 AHL appearances.

After a 6-3 win over the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday courtesy of Alex Nedeljkovic, the Penguins will turn to Jarry between the pipes on Tuesday.

The Penguins enter action as slight -104 underdogs against the New Jersey Devils.

Ungar is an undrafted 22-year-old netminder out of Alberta who has earned himself his first professional contract after an impressive campaign with Brock University (OUAA), posting a 2.15 GAA and .932 SV% in 26 games (20-6-0). Previously, Ungar spent five seasons in the WHL.

Stastney returned to the Predators lineup on Wednesday but abruptly exited the contest after playing 13:27 time-on-ice due to an upper-body injury.

Shea has seen minimal action lately, not suiting up for Pittsburgh since December, and has been reassigned to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. Shea has zero points in 22 games with Pittsburgh this season. In a corresponding move, Pittsburgh has recalled Jack St. Ivany.

Anderson has not lost since returning from blood clots on March 7th and will look to extend his two-game win streak on Thursday vs. Florida. The 34-year-old has an incredibly impressive record (6-1-0) despite his injury-riddled season but will look to improve on both his .904 SV% and .249 GAA. He will host one of the league's hottest teams in the Florida Panthers, who have won eight of their last 10 games and lead the NHL in shots per game (33.9).

The Penguins will turn to Jarry between the pipes for a third straight game as they attempt to snap a four-game losing skid in which they have been outscored 17-2.

The Penguins have lost seven of their last eight (1-6-1) but have a favourable matchup on Thursday against the San Jose Sharks and are -317 home favourites.
