White (undisclosed) will return to the Senators lineup on Tuesday.

While has missed the last three games with an undisclosed injury but will play tonight in Pittsburgh. White, who has 17 points (6G / 11A) in 56 games this season, is expected to be on the third line with Nick Paul and Jayce Hawryluk and should see some time on PP1 as well.

Nedeljkovic will start Tuesday vs. the Stars.

With both Petr Mrazek and James Reimer out with injuries, Nedeljkovic will make his season debut. The 24-year-old netminder was 15-10-2 with a 2.51 GAA and .905 SV% in 28 AHL games. Nedeljkovic has been outstanding in his first two NHL games, stopping 41 of the 43 shots (.953 SV%) that he's faced. His season debut will come against a Stars team that has gone 6-1-1 while scoring 2.88 goals per game in their last eight.

The Lightning have acquired Barclay Goodrow and a 2020 third-round draft pick from the Sharks for a 2020 first-round draft pick and Anthony Greco.

This is a bit of a surprising return for an undrafted 26-year-old with just 24 points (8G / 16A) in 62 games this season. However, he is under contract next season with a very small $925K cap-hit, which is good news for a cap-strapped Lightning team. Goodrow has good size (6-foot-2, 215 lbs) and is a capable penalty killer that really bolsters Tampa Bay's fourth line.
