Goalie Start
Vladar will start vs. Tampa Bay on Thursday.
Despite only winning two of his last four, the Flames will turn to Vladar between the pipes for the fifth time in the previous six games. Vladar allowed three goals on 20 shots (.850 SV%) on Tuesday but salvaged a 4-3 victory over the Nashville Predators. The 27-year-old Vladar has a 2.76 GAA and .897 SV5 in 15 games this season (6-5-4). The Flames enter Thursday's contest as +131 home underdogs against a Tampa Bay Lightning squad coming off a 2-1 loss to the Edmonton Oilers.
Philadelphia has signed Jacob Gaucher to a two-year, entry-level contract.
Gaucher is an undrafted 23-year-old out of Longueui, Quebec. He has spent the last three seasons bouncing between the ECHL and AHL, but has played well with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL) this season, scoring 15 points (10G / 5A) in 23 games.
Grebenkin has been recalled from the Toronto Marlies (AHL).
The 21-year-old Grebyonkin was the Maple Leafs' fifth-round pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. He is playing in his first professional season in North America and has zero points in seven games with the Maple Leafs, but he has 10 points (4G / 6A) in 13 games in the AHL with the Marlies.
Goalie Start
Kolosov will start vs. Detroit on Thursday.
The Flyers will roll with Kolosov between the pipes on Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings. Kolosov had a heavy workload while Samuel Ersson was battling an injury but will likely return to a secondary role. The 22-year-old Kolosov has a 3.29 GAA and .881 SV% in nine games this season (3-5-1). The Flyers enter Thursday's contest as -131 home favorites against a Red Wings club that snapped a five-game losing skid (0-3-2) on Monday with a 6-5 win over the Buffalo Sabres.
Goalie Start
Vladar will start in Nashville on Tuesday.
Dustin Wolf was beaten six times in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Dallas Stars, and the Flames will revert to Vladar between the pipes on Tuesday against the Nashville Predators. The 27-year-old Vladar has started four of the last six games (1-2-1) and has a 2.74 GAA and .900 SV% in 14 games this season (5-5-4). The Flames enter Tuesday's contest as +156 road underdogs against a Predators club they defeated 2-0 on November 15th.
Grundstrom is a healthy scratch for Tuesday's game in Carolina.
Grundstrom will make way for Nikolai Kovalenko, who will make his Sharks debut after being acquired from the Avalanche on Monday. Grundstrom has zero goals and four assists in 25 games this season.
Grebenkin has been assigned to the Toronto Marlies (AHL).
The 21-year-old Grebyonkin was a fifth-round pick of the Maple Leafs in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. He is playing in his first professional season in North America and has 10 points (4G / 6A) in 13 games in the AHL with the Marlies.

Zegras (lower-body) is out vs. Minnesota on Friday and being further evaluated.
Zegras left Wednesday's game vs. Vegas after just 6:08 TOI with an ugly-looking lower-body injury and did not return. It is a tough loss for the Ducks as the 23-year-old has been playing better as of late, with seven points (3G/4A) in his last nine games.
Drysdale (upper-body) remains on IR but is only considered day-to-day.
Drysdale has missed 11 straight games due to an upper-body injury but appears to be nearing a return to the lineup. The 22-year-old Drysdale is averaging 20:35 time-on-ice and has three points (1G / 2A) and a -10 plus/minus through 15 games this season.

Fresh off a 16-save performance for his second shutout of the season in a 3-0 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets, Vladar will return to the Flames' crease as the starting goalie for a third consecutive game. The 27-year-old Vladar has been serviceable this season, posting a 2.65 GAA and .904 SV% in 13 games (5-5-3). The Flames enter Thursday's contest as -125 home favorites against a St. Louis Blues club with points in four straight (3-0-1).
