Lindgren will protect the home net against Seattle on Sunday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Lindgren is coming off a 15-save effort in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Rangers. He has won three of his last four outings despite surrendering 12 goals on 82 shots. He has a 14-10-3 record with one shutout, a 2.66 GAA and an .896 save percentage through 28 appearances this season. Seattle is tied for 14th in the league with 2.95 goals per game in 2024-25 and earned a 4-1 win over Philadelphia on Saturday.

Stauber was recalled from AHL Tucson on Sunday.

Stauber has appeared in four NHL games this season, posting a 2-1-1 record while allowing nine goals on 120 shots. According to Belle Fraser of The Salt Lake Tribune, Connor Ingram (undisclosed) was absent from Sunday's practice. If Ingram is unavailable for Monday's home matchup versus Toronto, Stauber could be the backup behind Karel Vejmelka.

Skarek was assigned to AHL Bridgeport on Sunday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

The Islanders activated Marcus Hogberg (upper body) from injured reserve in a corresponding move to occupy the backup role behind Ilya Sorokin. The 25-year-old Skarek has appeared in two NHL games this season, stopping 34 of 39 shots en route to a record of 0-1-0.

Allen will defend the road net versus the Flyers on Sunday, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.

Allen has one win in his last five outings, allowing 15 goals on 163 shots and earning one shutout. He has a 9-13-1 record with a 2.70 GAA and a .906 save percentage across 23 appearances this season. Philadelphia is tied for 18th in the league with 2.83 goals per game in 2024-25 and lost 4-1 to Seattle on Saturday.

Hogberg (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Sunday, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

Hogberg's removal from the IR list paves the way for him to return to the lineup against Anaheim on Sunday after a 14-game absence. He has a 2-2-0 record with a 1.45 GAA and a .947 save percentage in seven appearances with the Islanders this season.

Fedotov will patrol the home crease against New Jersey on Sunday.

Fedotov will get the second half of Philadelphia's back-to-back after Samuel Ersson played in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Seattle. The 28-year-old Fedotov has a 5-9-3 record with a 3.08 GAA and an .885 save percentage across 19 appearances this season. New Jersey is tied for 14th in the league with 2.95 goals per game in 2024-25.

Wolf stopped all 26 shots he faced in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Canadiens.

Both young goalies dazzled, but Wolf was just a little bit better than Jakub Dobes in the Montreal crease. The shutout was the third of the season for Wolf, and he's gone six straight starts without allowing more than three goals -- a stretch in which he's posted a 3-1-2 record with a 1.97 GAA and .928 save percentage.

Dobes turned aside 23 shots in Saturday's 1-0 loss to the Flames.

Joel Farabee ripped a shot past the rookie netminder from the faceoff dot late in the second period, and it was all the offense the home side would need. Dobes has just one win in his last six outings dating back to Jan. 25, going 1-3-1 with a 3.39 GAA and .890 save percentage, but Saturday's effort could encourage coach Martin St. Louis to take some of the load off Sam Montembeault's shoulders.

Vanecek made 21 saves in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.

In his first start for his new club since being acquired from the Sharks, Vanecek demonstrated the benefits of improved defensive play in front of him as he recorded his first shutout in nearly two years. The 29-year-old goalie won't see much work behind Sergei Bobrovsky down the stretch, but Vanecek should deliver better ratios than the career-worst 3.89 GAA and .882 save percentage he produced over 18 outings for San Jose.

Luukkonen stopped 32 of 35 shots in Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Panthers, with Florida's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

The 26-year-old netminder took his fourth straight loss, as the Buffalo offense failed to get off the plane in South Florida. Luukkonen hasn't done himself any favors of late either, posting a 4.40 GAA and .853 save percentage during his March losing streak as the Sabres sink to the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings.
