  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Tending twine Monday

    Skinner will defend the road cage against the Blues on Monday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Skinner is 3-1-1 in his last five outings despite posting a 3.16 GAA and .902 save percentage over that stretch. The 25-year-old netminder has already set new career highs in wins (33), shutouts (two) and games played (53) while sporting a personal-best 2.62 GAA.

  • Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Starting in Toronto

    Bobrovsky will guard the road goal Monday against the Maple Leafs, Doug Plagens of the Panthers Radio Network reports.

  • Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Facing Avalanche

    Tarasov will guard the home goal versus Colorado on Monday, NHL.com's Jeff Svoboda reports.

    Tarasov has played pretty well over his last two starts, posting a combined .916 save percentage versus the Golden Knights and the Penguins, but he went 0-2-0 over that stretch due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. He'll try to get back in the win column in a rough home matchup with a red-hot Avalanche team that's gone 8-1-1 over its last 10 games.

Lyon has posted a record of 18-16-4 this campaign with a 3.03 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 38 appearances. The Lightning sit fifth in the league with 3.48 goals per contest this season.

  • Penguins' Tristan Jarry: Between pipes Monday

    Jarry will tend the twine against the Rangers on the road Monday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.

    Jarry will make his first appearance in the crease since March 24 versus Colorado, having been benched in favor of Alex Nedeljkovic for the last three games. It's been an underwhelming end to the season for the 28-year-old Jarry, who has gone 1-5-1 with a 4.47 GAA and .869 save percentage over his last eight games. With Jarry starting Monday, look for Nedeljkovic to take the second game of the back-to-back versus the Devils on Tuesday.
