He posted a 12-8-1 record with two shutouts, a 2.40 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 23 appearances with the Panthers this season.

Bobrovsky will patrol the home crease versus Tampa Bay on Monday.

Bobrovsky has won three of his last four outings, stopping 93 of 99 shots. He has a 25-13-2 record with three shutouts, a 2.59 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 40 appearances this season. Tampa Bay ranks second in the league with 3.56 goals per game, and the team is riding an eight-game winning streak.

Ullmark was the first goalie to leave the ice Monday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports, indicating he'll be in goal on the road versus Washington.

Ullmark was able to end a four-game losing streak with his victory over San Jose on Saturday, despite having given up three goals on 37 shots (.919 save percentage) in that contest. It was the 31-year-old netminder's first win since returning from a long-term back injury. Even with the slump, Ullmark continues to see the majority of the workload ahead of Anton Forsberg.

Gustavsson saved all 28 shots he faced in Sunday's 1-0 win against the Bruins.

Gustavsson held strong in Minnesota's crease all game, including a key save down the stretch to deny Boston's Mason Lohrei the game-tying goal. Overall, the 26-year-old Gustavsson has a 23-13-3 record with a 2.61 GAA and a .914 save percentage. Sunday's performance was Gustavsson's fourth shutout of the season and his first since early January. The Swedish goaltender also ranks sixth among goaltenders in wins this season. He remains an elite option in fantasy moving forward as Minnesota is challenging for a playoff spot in the Central Division. His next opportunity to defend Minnesota's net is Tuesday at Seattle.

Blomqvist was demoted to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Monday.

Blomqvist has been struggling of late, going 1-2-1 with a 4.30 GAA in his last five outings, including giving up six goals on 33 shots in Sunday's overtime loss to Toronto. With the youngster's performance slipping, the Penguins decided to get him some minutes in the minors while bringing up Tristan Jarry in a corresponding move. If Pittsburgh can move Jarry before the March 7 trade deadline, Blomqvist could find himself back in the NHL sooner rather than later.

Jarry was called up from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Monday.

Jarry's last NHL appearance was Jan. 14 versus the Kraken, a game in which he gave up three goals on 17 shots in a fifth consecutive loss. In the minors, the 29-year-old netminder hasn't found significantly more success, going 6-5-1 with a 2.67 GAA and .908 save percentage. With youngster Joel Blomqvist struggling, the team decided to send him down to the minors while bringing Jarry back up in a corresponding move. The decision could also be an opportunity for Jarry to impress ahead of the March 7 trade deadline.

Thompson will protect the home net against Ottawa on Monday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

Thompson has lost his last two outings, surrendering five goals on 43 shots. He has a 25-4-5 record with two shutouts, a 2.27 GAA and a .919 save percentage through 34 appearances this season. Ottawa is tied for 22nd in the league with 2.80 goals per game in 2024-25.
