Goalie Start
“We’re going to put some guys in who didn’t play” against St. Louis
Bernier would fit the bill as a guy who hasn't played since January 9th. He won his only career start against the Canes, stopping 27 of 30 shots faced.
New Jersey Devils News
Markstrom took shots early
Markstrom gets back on the ice, which is a good sign. The Cats will proceed with caution with their stud prospect.
Goalie Start
Of course, Sutter did not announce his starting goalie, but it would be a surprise if Jonathan Bernier did not get the call.
Bernier boasts a 2-0-0 record with a 1.00 GAA, .966 SV% and one shutout in two career starts against the Oilers.

Bernier first goalie off the ice....
Bernier won his only career start against the Caps, stopping 22 of 23 shots faced.
Panthers recalled G Foster from AHL with Markstrom tweaking knee #flapanthers
Markstrom is not healthy enough to even backup tonight which indicates this injury is relatively serious. The Cats will proceed with caution with their stud prospect.
#FlaPanthers Kevin Dineen says Jacob Markstrom should be Ok; sounds like he tweaked knee that needed surgery last year. No call up likely.
Markstrom took a maintenance day today but is not expected to miss any playing time. At the very least, expect the prized prospect to backup Scott Clemmensen.

John Madden in for #FlaPanthers, Jacob Markstrom as well #njDevils

Dallas Stars assigned defenseman Brenden Dillon to the Texas Stars
Dillon has yet to make his NHL debut. He projects to be a two-way defender but don't expect too much production from him when/if recalled.

#FlaPanthers Dineen on Theodore's injury: "it's not long term...two weeks or less" @j_markstrom will meet team in NY
Expect Markstrom to at least backup tomorrow's game against the Rangers. With Jose Theodore expected to miss at least two weeks, the team's prized prospect should get another start or two.

Stars recall Brenden Dillon
Dillon scored two goals and 13 points over 31 games in the AHL. He could be used as insurance and serve as a seventh defender.
Call up / Send down
Dineen said that Theodore will miss the next few games and rookie Jacob Markstrom will be recalled from San Antonio again.
Markstrom is still one of the League's top prospects and should get some more NHL experience over the next couple of games. If you need a spot start, he should be an excellent option.
Goalie Start
Jonathan Bernier in net
Bernier has never faced the Jets.
The #sens have signed forwards Stefan Noesen and Matt Puempel to entry-level deals.
Noesen currently has 13 goals and 34 points while playing with the Plymouth Whalers of the OHL. Expect him to make a push for a roster spot next summer.
Goalie Start
Based on precedence, it's likely the Jets will see Bernier tomorrow night.

Tatar sent back to minors this morning, as expected
As expected, Tatar was just insurance for Jiri Hudler. He returns to the AHL, where he gets playing time.
Line Change
Tomas Tatar's flight to Nash delayed. Didn't make morning skate. Will take warmup and play if needed. Emmerton in. #bootscootinghockey
Tatar will only play tonight if Jiri Hudler or another banged up forward can't draw in. Otherwise, expect the talented winger to head back to the AHL.
Call up / Send down
The Red Wings recalled forward Tomas Tatar from the Grand Rapids Griffins for precautionary reasons.
Apparently there is another player who may not be able to play. Tatar scored seven goals and 21 points in 26 games while in the AHL and would presumably fill in on a scoring line.
Goalie Start
Bernier to start tonight.
In three career starts against the Stars, Bernier has a 1-1-1 record with a 2.28 GAA and .911 SV%.
Bruins sign Dougie Hamilton to entry-level contract. Lighting it up in OHL. Chiarelli will be guest on pre-game show tonight. #NESN 630pm
Hamilton won't play a minute in the NHL this season but is definitely a name to remember moving forward.

#FlaPanthers have reassigned goalie @j_markstrom to @sarampage #NHL #AHL
Markstrom's demotion is a sign that Jose Theodore is fully healthy. There is no reason to roster the Swedish netminder in one-year leagues while he remains in the minors.
