Rodrigues played just 0:40 TOI in Sunday's win over the Panthers, which left the Sabres with just 10 forwards after dressing 11 forwards and seven defensemen. With Rodrigues hurt, the Sabres recalled J-S Dea from Rochester on Monday morning and he will likely make his season debut in Rodrigues' place.
Bennett was a late-scratch for Sunday's game in Vegas and now he is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks. Zac Rinaldo was called-up from Stockton (AHL) and will fill-in for Bennett on Tuesday.
Bobrovsky gave up three goals on 33 shots in the Panthers' 4-3 win over the Rangers on Saturday. The win snapped a four-game losing streak for Bobrovsky, who is now 4-2-2 with a 3.54 GAA, .887 SV% and one shutout on home-ice this season. Tonight he faces a Flyers team that has lost three straight and recently recalled Morgan Frost to try and help boost their offence.
With Matt Calvert out indefinitely, Greer is expected to make his season debut on Tuesday. Greer has two goals and nine AHL games this season and has picked up six points (1G / 5A) in 37 career games with the Avalanche.
Luostarinen, 21, appeared in three games with the Hurricanes while Erik Haula was out. He will likely head out to Chicago to serve as an extra forward and will head back to the AHL when the Hurricanes return home. Luostarinen has five goals and three assists (eight points) in 12 AHL games.
Nosek has been a healthy scratch for the last two games but will replace Nicolas Roy on the Vegas' fourth line on Saturday afternoon. Nosek has collected three goals and one assist in 17 games this season.
Bobrovsky surrendered four goals on 30 shots in the Panthers loss to the Jets on Thursday. Bobrovsky's struggles continued, resulting in him going 0-2-1 with a 4.17 and .875 SV% in his last four starts. The Panthers are trying to get their No.1 netminder going, so they'll come right back to him on Saturday night. Tonight he faces a Rangers team that is 3-3-0 with 2.83 goals per game on the road.
Boqvist has bounced in-and-out of the New Jersey lineup early-on, appearing in just six games total. The 2017 No.36 overall pick put up strong numbers in Sweden last season but is still searching for his first career NHL point. On Friday, he will skate with Jack Hughes and Jesper Bratt.
Bobrovsky was pulled after he allowed four goals on 23 shots in the Panthers come-from-behind win in Boston on Tuesday. Despite Samuel Montembeault playing very well in relief, the Panthers will stick with their $70 million dollar man on Thursday night. The Jets are struggling mightily to score goals right now so maybe this is an opportunity to get Bob back on track.
Bobrovsky stopped 34 of 36 shots in the Panthers' loss to the Islanders on Saturday. He played very well but it wasn't quite good enough because Thomas Greiss was terrific on the other end. Bobrovsky's numbers still aren't great but he hasn't lost in regulation in his last six starts, going 4-0-2 with a 3.01 GAA and .884 SV%.
Bobrovsky allowed five goals on 31 shots in the Panthers loss to the Capitals on Thursday.

Tonight he faces a Capitals team that comes in at 7-1-1 while scoring 4.11 goals per game in their first nine road games of 2019-20.
