Namestnikov missed the last three games with a lower-body injury but will play Friday in Minnesota. Namestnikov, who has 12 points (6G / 6A) in 22 games this season, will skate with Artem Anisimov and Connor Brown on the Senators' third-line.

Hellebuyck stopped all five shots that he faced after replacing Laurent Brossoit in the Jets win over the Blue Jackets last Saturday. Hellebuyck has been dominant in November, going 6-2-1 while ranking 10th in GAA (2.18) and tied for fifth in SV% (.937). In his first start against San Jose, Hellebuyck stopped 51 of 53 shots in a 3-2 win (Nov.1).

Namestnikov suffered a lower-body injury early in Wednesday's game in Montreal and will miss at least two games and J.C. Beaudin was called up from Belleville (AHL) to replace him.


Hellebuyck allowed three goals on 34 shots in the Jets win in Tampa Bay on Saturday. Hellebuyck has gone 4-1-1 with a 2.13 GAA and .937 SV% in November and will make his league-high 17th start of the season on Tuesday.

Hellebuyck allowed four goals on 25 shots in the Jets loss to the Avalanche on Tuesday. The loss moved Hellebuyck to 3-1-1 with a 1.96 GAA and .942 SV% in five November starts and today he will make his 16th start of the season. He's had a tough time on the road, going 3-2-0 with a 3.35 GAA and .912 SV% in five games.

Hellebuyck stopped 26 of 28 shots in the Jets win over the Stars on Sunday. Hellebuyck has been absolutely outstanding in November, going 3-0-1 with a 1.47 GAA, .959 SV% and one shutout in four starts. He'll look to stay hot against an Avalanche team that has gone 2-3-1 without Mikko Rantanen and Gabriel Landeskog.


Ferraro is dealing with some kind of injury but was on the ice for the Sharks morning skate and could play Saturday. Ferraro has picked up two assists in 17 games this season.

Tonight he faces a Canucks team that is on the second half of a back-to-back and comes in at 5-4-1 with 2.70 goals per game on the road.

Lowry missed the last two games after being suspended for a hit in the Heritage Classic but will play Saturday in Vegas. Lowry is still searching for his first point after being held scoreless in his first 12 games of the season.

Hellebuyck was yanked after giving up five goals on 19 shots in the Jets loss in Anaheim. What looked like a good matchup got out of hand early in the second period and resulted in Hellebuyck's worst outing of the season. He hasn't faced the Sharks yet this season but was 1-1-1 with a 3.62 GAA and .907 SV% in three starts against them last season.


Lowry crunched Kylington into the corner during Saturday’s Heritage Classic and will miss Tuesday’s game in Anaheim and Friday’s game in San Jose. Logan Shaw was recalled from Manitoba (AHL) and will likely draw into the lineup for Lowry tomorrow.
