Bobrovsky was the first goaltender off at Tuesday's morning skate, which indicates he'll defend the road crease versus the Capitals, per Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press.

After conceding four goals in back-to-back losses, Bobrovsky has won four consecutive games. Across 34 career appearances against the Capitals, Bobrovsky owns a 14-13-5 record, .901 save percentage and 2.98 GAA. Washington sits second in the NHL with 3.50 goals per game in 2024-25.

Saros stopped 34 of 38 shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Senators, with Ottawa's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

The Preds kept things close through the first two periods and tied it up at 2-2 on a Jonathan Marchessault power-play tally just 47 seconds into the third period, but Nashville's defense let Saros down late and he had little chance on either puck that got past him in the final frame. The 29-year-old netminder has lost four straight starts, and over his last 10 outings, he's gone 3-6-0 with a 3.03 GAA and an .894 save percentage.

Daws will be in the road goal in Tuesday's divisional matchup against the Penguins, per Devils play-by-play announcer Bill Spaulding.

Daws will make his first start of the campaign Tuesday -- he stopped all seven shots he faced in relief of Jake Allen on Sunday in a 4-3 loss to the Sabres. The 24-year-old had a 9-11-0 record, .894 save percentage and 3.15 GAA over 21 regular-season appearances in 2023-24.

Fleury will protect the road cage against the Bruins on Tuesday, according to Joe Smith of The Athletic.

In his final regular-season game in Montreal on Thursday, Fleury recorded a 19-save shutout in a 4-0 victory. The veteran netminder played well in January, posting a 5-2-0 record, .923 save percentage and 2.26 GAA over seven appearances. Boston is generating 2.76 goals per game this season, which ranks 25th in the league.

Thompson will draw the home start Tuesday versus the Panthers, according to Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.

Thompson conceded five goals in a game for just the second time this season in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to Winnipeg. Thompson has a 2-1-0 record, 2.67 GAA and .914 save percentage in three career appearances against the Panthers. Florida is coming off a 6-3 win over the Islanders on Sunday.

Swayman will patrol the home blue paint against the Wild on Tuesday, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports.

Swayman has alternated wins and losses over his last four outings, allowing at least three goals in three of those games. He made 22 saves on 25 shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rangers. Minnesota is tied for 17th in the NHL with 2.89 goals per game this season.

Forsberg made 25 saves in Monday's 5-2 win over the Predators.

The veteran netminder continued a surge that began in mid-January while Linus Ullmark was sidelined by a back issue. Forsberg has won three straight starts, and over his last six outings, he's gone 4-1-0 with a 2.16 GAA and a .923 save percentage. With about a month to go until the NHL trade deadline, Forsberg could be making himself a very enticing target for a contender looking for depth in the crease. He'll be a free agent in the offseason, and Leevi Merilainen's stellar play during Ullmark's absence would seem to make Forsberg expendable.

Nedeljkovic will be between the home pipes Tuesday against the Devils, per Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Nedeljkovic earned his first shutout of the season in a 3-0 win over Nashville on Saturday. The 29-year-old has an 11-9-4 record, .899 save percentage and 3.02 GAA through 25 appearances in 2024-25. The Devils have lost two of their last three games, while the Penguins have won back-to-back contests.

Vasilevskiy is slated to patrol the home blue paint versus Ottawa on Tuesday, according to Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun.

Vasilevskiy is 1-2-1 in his last four starts -- he made 33 saves in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Islanders. Ottawa is coming off a 5-2 win over Nashville on Monday and is generating 2.87 goals per game this season, which ranks 19th in the NHL.

Sorokin will get the starting nod at home against Vegas on Tuesday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

Considering Sorokin is riding a six-game winning streak, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see the Isles going back to him for Tuesday's tilt. During that six-game run, the 29-year-old netminder is sporting an incredible 1.19 GAA, including one shutout and a .958 save percentage.
