Walman (lower body) was a full participant in practice Monday and will be a game-time decision Tuesday.

Walman has averaged over 21 minutes of ice time over his last four contests but is battling a lower-body injury that has kept him out of the lineup for the last three games. Walman has only one point (1G / 0A) in his last 16 games.

The Penguins enter action as +173 road underdogs against the Dallas Stars.

Andersen will start on Thursday vs. Philadelphia.

The Hurricanes will search for their fifth straight win on Thursday and will turn to Andersen between the pipes. Andersen has been sensational since returning to the lineup after a multi-month absence dealing with a blood clot, winning all four games, allowing only five total goals, and posting a dazzling .949 SV%. The Hurricanes enter action as sizeable -231 home favourites against the Philadelphia Flyers.

Levi will start in Vancouver on Tuesday.

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.

Jarry will start on Tuesday in New Jersey.

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. Jarry has allowed three or more goals in all but one of his last seven games (2-4-1), including six goals on 23 shots (.739 SV%) in his last outing, a 7-4 loss to the New York Rangers.

Edmonton has signed Connor Ungar to a two-year, entry-level contract on Monday.

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 (upper body) is out week-to-week after leaving Thursday's game early due to injury.

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. Stastney spent an early portion of the season with the Predators but has spent most of the 2023-24 campaign in the AHL. In 44 games with the Milwaukee Admirals (AHL), he has 20 points (5G / 15A).

Spencer Stastney
Shea has been reassigned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL).

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.

Ryan Shea
Andersen will start on Thursday vs. Florida.

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).
