Miller will re-enter the lineup in Washington in place of the injured Ondrej Palat (lower-body). Miller is expected to skate on the Devils' third pair while Brendan Smith will move upfront to play with the fourth line. Miller has no goals and one assist in 16 games this season.
Anderson-Dolan was a surprise addition for Tuesday's game, as he'll draw into the lineup in place of Arthur Kaliyev, who is listed as a scratch. Anderson-Dolan has no goals and two assists in nine games this season.
Hellebuyck had the night off on New Year's Eve but will likely return to the crease on Tuesday when the Jets host the Tampa Bay Lightning. Hellebuyck has been amongst the best goalies in the league since mid-November, posting an outstanding .937 SV% in 15 games (11-2-2), allowing fewer than three goals in all but two contests. The Jets are -136 home favourites against a Lighting they defeated 3-2 on November 22nd, courtesy of a 31-save performance from Hellebuyck (.939 SV%).
Miller will be the odd-man out on Friday as the Devils opt to go back to a more traditional lineup with Brendan Smith dropping back to take Miller's place on the blue-line. Miller has zero goals and one assist across 16 games this season. Chris Tierney will draw into the lineup in his place.
Driedger will make his first start of the season after Joey Daccord got the nod in each of the Kraken's previous seven games as Philipp Grubauer continues to recover from a lower-body injury. Driedger last appeared in an NHL game on May 1st, 2022, when he allowed four goals on 27 shots enroute to a 4-3 defeat at the hands of the Jets. He owns a 9-5-1 record and a .916 SV% with Coachella Valley (AHL) this season. Driedger will have his hands full on Wednesday, with the Kraken being +125 underdogs in Calgary.
Toninato will take the place of the injured David Gustafsson (undisclosed). Toninato has two goals and four assists with Manitoba (AHL) this season.
Gustafsson was a game-time decision for Wednesday's game in Chicago due to an undisclosed injury. He has two goals and two assists in 27 games this season.
Hellebuyck is among the league's hottest goaltenders since mid-November and will return to the crease on Wednesday evening. Hellebuyck has won 10 of his last 13 games (10-1-2), allowing three or fewer goals in each contest, posting a sensational .938 SV%. The American netminder has been a big reason why the Jets have catapulted into a race for the top seed in the Central Division, and he is in for a favourable matchup against the league-worst Chicago Blackhawks.
Miller will play his first game since December 17th, when Brendan Smith drew into the lineup in favour of his. Before his absence from the lineup, Miller played 15 straight games for the Devils, tallying one point (0G / 1A), 10 blocks, and 18 hits while averaging 14:52 time-on-ice.
Hellebuyck did not play in Wednesday's 5-0 victory over the Detroit Red Wings but will return to the crease on Friday when the Jets host the Boston Bruins. Hellebuyck has been terrific lately, allowing two or fewer goals in 10 of his last 11 games (8-2-1) while posting a dazzling .939 SV%. The Jets are among the hottest teams in the league this month, losing only two of nine games in December (7-1-1), yet are slight +105 home underdogs against a Bruins team that has lost three of their last four contests (1-2-1).
