Burakovsky (lower body) is still considered day-to-day but will be a game-time decision on Saturday.

Burakovsky did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday due to an undisclosed injury and is questionable for Saturday. He played 18:15 time-on-ice in Seattle's Tuesday-night outing, a 4-3 victory over the Boston Bruins, recording one assist and two shots on goal. He has three points (0G / 3A) in his last four games after being held without a point in seven games straight.

Ersson will start on Tuesday vs. Tampa Bay.

Ersson will return to the Flyers' crease on Thursday vs. Tampa Bay after giving Cal Petersen the start in an ugly 7-6 loss over the weekend. The 24-year-old 2nd-year netminder has done an admirable job holding down the Flyers' starting job after getting the role of starter unexpectedly and has a 16-11-4 record to show for it with a 2.56 GAA and .900 SV%. He will host the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday, who have won their last two games and are seventh in the NHL in goals per game (3.40).

Ullmark will start on Monday in Seattle.

Ullmark will tend the twine on Monday for a Bruins club that has uncharacteristically lost six of their last eight (2-2-4). Ullmark allowed three goals on 30 shots (.900 SV%) in his last outing, a 3-2 extra-time loss to the Calgary Flames. The Bruins are -141 road favourites against the Seattle Kraken on Monday despite being defeated by them 4-1 less than two weeks ago.

Ullmark will start in Calgary on Thursday.

Ullmark will be back between the pipes on Thursday after the Bruins broke their typical goalie rotation on Wednesday, handing Jeremy Swayman back-to-back starts as they travelled to Edmonton to take on the Oilers. Ullmark had a rough outing in his last contest, allowing five goals on 35 shots (.857 SV%) in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Kings. Ullmark and the Bruins are -125 favourites to emerge victorious in Calgary on Thursday.

Ersson will start in Chicago on Wednesday.

The Flyers will go right back to Ersson between the pipes on Wednesday after he took the loss in Saturday's outdoor game against the Devils. Ersson allowed five goals on 39 shots in the Stadium Series affair, as the Flyers eventually fell by a score of 6-3. The 24-year-old netminder has endured an up-an-down season to date, posting an .898 SV% to go along with his 15-10-4 record. He draws an excellent matchup on Wednesday with the Flyers being -250 favourites to pick up the win in Chicago.

Ullmark was in the starter's crease at Wednesday's morning skate.

As has been the case all season, the Bruins will continue their goalie rotation on Wednesday and turn to Ullmark after Swayman played in the previous game. Ullmark had a rough outing in his last contest, allowing five goals on 35 shots (.857 SV%) in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Kings. The Bruins enter action as +118 road underdogs against the Edmonton Oilers and their fifth-ranked offence (3.56 GF / GP).
