Murray allowed two goals on 21 shots in the Penguins' 2-1 loss in New Jersey last Friday. Tristan Jarry started Saturday, so they come back to Murray tonight vs. the Islanders. In his last six starts, Murray has gone 2-1-2 with a 2.68 GAA and .894 SV%. With a ton of injuries in front of him, wins are going to be hard to come by but Murray should turn in strong splits. He stopped 20 of 23 shots in a 4-3 OT win in his first start vs. the Islanders.

Grubauer missed the last five games with a lower-body injury but was at practice on Monday and head coach Jared Bednar thinks both Grubauer and Pavel Francouz will be available on Tuesday. The Avalanche managed to go 4-1-0 without Grubauer.

Mahura has played in four straight games but played a season-low 11:24 TOI on Saturday and will be replaced by Jacob Larsson on Monday night.

Kakko was a late-scratch in Tampa Bay on Thursday but could play Saturday in Florida. Kakko's return to the lineup would be a welcome sight for the Rangers because the rookie has heated up, scoring five goals in his last seven games.

Grubauer will miss his fourth straight game with a lower-body injury and with Pavel Francouz also out, Adam Werner will make his first career NHL start. Grubauer appears to be getting close, so there's a chance he's back between the pipes in Vancouver on Saturday.

Murray gave up two goals on 31 shots in the Penguins win over the Blackhawks on Saturday. Murray has won two straight while stopping 49 of the 54 shots (.907 SV%) and comes into Tuesday's matchup at 3-1-0 with a 2.93 GAA, .885 SV% and one shutout on the road. On the other side, the Rangers are 4-4-2 while scoring 3.70 goals per game on home ice.

Murray allowed three goals on 23 shots in the Penguins win over the Islanders on Thursday. The win snapped a brief two-game losing skid for Murray, who is now 8-3-1 with a 2.40 GAA and .914 SV% on the season. The 25-year-old will be taking on a Chicago team that has just one win on the road this season, going 1-4-1 while scoring just 1.83 goals per game this season.

Grubauer is dealing with a nagging lower-body issue that will cost him a few games but nothing long-term. Pavel Francouz will start for him on Thursday and Adam Werner was called-up to serve as his backup while Grubauer is sidelined.

Murray was pulled after allowing three goals on 11 shots in the Penguins loss in Boston on Monday. Everyone is struggling against the Bruins right now, so Murray owners shouldn't worry about his latest outing. In his previous three road outings, Murray stopped 72 of the 79 shots (.911 SV%) and will try to snap the Islanders' winning streak on Thursday. The Isles have won 10 in a row while averaging 3.50 goals per game.

After coming up from the AHL, Lindgren appeared in three straight games but will be scratched in favour of Marc Staal on Wednesday.

Grubauer allowed two goals on 29 shots in Colorado's loss to the Stars last Friday. The Avalanche are struggling without Mikko Rantanen and Gabriel Landeskog but Grubauer is still keeping them in games. He's lost three of four (1-2-1) while posting a 2.52 GAA and .915 SV% but draws a tough road assignment in Dallas. The Stars have won six of their last seven while scoring 2.86 goals per game.

Murray gave up two goals on 28 shots in the Penguins' overtime loss to the Oilers on Saturday. It was another strong performance from Murray, who has won six of his last eight starts (6-1-1) while posting a 1.85 GAA, .932 SV% and one shutout. As good as he has been, the Bruins are a terrible matchup--they are 6-0-1 on home-ice and are sixth in goal-scoring (3.54 GF/gm).

Hayden played in five straight games but will be replaced by Jesper Boqvist on Saturday. Boqvist will move onto the second line and Wayne Simmonds will move down into Hayden's spot.

Montour was held out of Friday's game, likely to avoid him playing two games in two nights, but he'll make his first appearance of the season on Saturday. Montour will replace John Gilmour in the lineup and is coming off of a season where he had 10 points (3G / 7A) in 20 games with the Sabres after being traded from Anaheim.

Murray stopped 29 of 30 shots in the Penguins 7-1 blowout win over the Flyers on Tuesday.
