  • Penguins' Tristan Jarry: In blue paint Tuesday

    Jarry will patrol the home crease versus the Kraken on Tuesday, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff.

    Jarry is winless through four appearances in January, posting an 0-1-2 record, .905 save percentage and 2.17 GAA. The Kraken are 18-23-3 this season and have put up 2.89 goals per game, which ranks 22nd in the NHL.

  • Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Shifted to IR

    Andersen (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

    Andersen's designation for IR is not expected to impact his recovery timeline, rather the move allowed the Canes to bring up Ty Smith in a corresponding transaction. The 35-year-old Andersen has been working with the team and could be back sooner rather than later, though the club figures to take a cautious approach to his return given his recent injury history.

  • Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Lead slips away late Monday

    Bobrovsky made 25 saves in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Flyers.

    The Panthers took a 2-1 lead into the third period, but two power-play goals for Philly in the first six minutes of the frame preceded a spectacular solo effort by Noah Cates on the game-winner. Bobrovsky has just one win in his first five January outings, going 1-3-1 despite a solid 2.62 GAA and .910 save percentage.

  • Capitals' Logan Thompson: In goal Tuesday

    Thompson is slated to start in Tuesday's home matchup against the Ducks, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.

    Thompson was stellar in his last start, turning aside 32 of 33 shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over Nashville. The 27-year-old has a 3-0-1 record, .924 save percentage and 2.42 GAA through four appearances in January. Charlie Lindgren (upper body) landed on injured reserve Saturday, so Thompson will handle the bulk of the starts while the former works his way back to full health.

  • Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Set to start versus Philadelphia

    Tarasov will defend the home crease against the Flyers on Tuesday, according to Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.

    Tarasov was recalled from his conditioning stint with AHL Cleveland on Sunday. The 25-year-old hasn't made a start in the NHL since Dec. 28, and he hasn't won a game since Oct. 22. Columbus will have the rest advantage Tuesday -- Philadelphia is on the second half of a back-to-back.

  • Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Facing former team Tuesday

    Hogberg will be between the home pipes Tuesday versus Ottawa, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

    Hogberg was solid in his last start, stopping 21 of 22 shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over Utah. The 30-year-old will face the team he was drafted by in 2013 -- Hogberg spent the first three years of his NHL career with the Sens. Ottawa is tied for 20th in the NHL with 2.90 goals per game.

  • Kings' Darcy Kuemper: First off Monday

    Kuemper was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Zach Dooley of LA Kings Insider reports, indicating he will defend the road net versus Edmonton on Monday.

    Kuemper made 24 saves in a 4-3 overtime victory over Edmonton on Dec. 28 to begin his four-game winning streak. He has a 12-2-5 record with two shutouts, a 2.16 GAA and a .919 save percentage through 20 appearances this season. The Oilers sit eighth in the league with 3.31 goals per game in 2024-25.

  • Hockey Club's Karel Vejmelka: Named starter for Tuesday's game

    Vejmelka will defend the home crease against the Canadiens on Tuesday, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

    Vejmelka has gone 2-4-1 over his last seven starts, but his results haven't been particularly poor, as he's posted a 2.60 GAA and .910 save percentage during that time. The Canadiens have a middling offense, as they're tied for 17th in the league with 2.95 goals per game.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Starting Monday

    Skinner will patrol the home crease versus the Kings on Monday, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

    Skinner is coming off a 21-save effort in a 5-3 loss to Pittsburgh on Thursday. He has a 16-9-3 record with one shutout, a 2.77 GAA and an .898 save percentage through 28 appearances this season. The Kings sit 13th in the league with 3.03 goals per game in 2024-25.

  • Hurricanes' Pyotr Kochetkov: Gives up three goals Sunday

    Kochetkov stopped 17 of 20 shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks.

    Kochetkov hasn't been playing at his best of late, winning just one of his previous four starts, although the record doesn't tell the whole story here. He's recorded a save percentage of at least .880 in three of his last four outings despite going 1-2-1 with a 3.01 GAA in that span.
