Grubauer is expected to serve as the starting goaltender in Wednesday's home preseason game against the Oilers, Alison Lukan of Root Sports reports.

Grubauer turned aside 31 of 36 shots in a preseason start against Edmonton on Sept. 28, and he'll get another chance to face the Oilers during Wednesday's preseason finale. After posting a 14-16-2 record, 2.85 GAA and .899 save percentage over 36 regular-season appearances last year, the 32-year-old will likely begin the 2024-25 campaign in a platoon with Joey Daccord.
