Toews has eight goals and six assists with a -10 plus/minus through 24 games but is in danger of missing his first game of the 2022-23 season due to illness as he is a game-time decision Tuesday. If he is unable to play the Blackhawks will role with seven defensemen.

Hellebuyck will start Tuesday vs. the Panthers.

Hellebuyck stopped 28 of 30 shots (.933 SV%) to pick up his fourth straight win in a victory over Anaheim in his previous start.

Fagemo has been loaned by to Ontario where he posted six goals, two assists and a -7 plus/minus through 15 games with the Reign (AHL).

Vilardi (upper-body) is questionable to play Tuesday vs. Seattle.

Vilardi missed Sunday's game with an upper-body injury but was back on the ice for Monday's practice. Vilardi skated on the third line in Monday's session, which is a good sign that he'll be available vs. the Kraken. Head coach Todd McLellan would not commit to him playing, so monitor his status during Tuesday's morning skate.

Gabriel Vilardi
Ville Heinola will be a healthy scratch Friday.

Heinola had found his way in the Jets' lineup for the last two games but will head to the press box Friday as Dylan DeMelo returns from an upper-body injury. In his short two-game showing, he failed to get a point and a shot on goal while posting a -2 plus/minus rating.
