Talbot will get the starting nod at home against Chicago on Tuesday, Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty reports.

The backstop has featured in eight of the team's last 10 contests in which he posted a 4-3-1 record, 2.01 GAA and .935 save percentage. With Talbot taking the first game of the back-to-back, David Rittich is expected to guard the cage against Minnesota on Wednesday.

Chrona will guard the road net against the Predators on Tuesday, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.

The 23-year-old is still trying to figure out his game at the NHL level, recording an .869 save percentage and a 1-5-1 record in eight starts.

The 24-year-old has been excellent in the seven games he's played with the big club, recording a .929 save percentage and a 4-2-1 record. He will have a tough test on the road against the Blues, who are 21-11-1 at home this season.

Tarasov will guard the road goal Tuesday against the Red Wings, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Taraseov is coming off a 39-save performance in Saturday's 4-2 win over San Jose. He has provided a 7-9-2 record this season with a 3.16 GAA and a .906 save percentage across 19 games played. Detroit is tied for seventh in the league this campaign with 3.38 goals per contest.

Saros has gone 11 straight appearances without a regulation loss, posting a 9-0-2 record, 1.90 GAA and .934 save percentage over that stretch. The Finnish netminder should be expected to take a heavy share of the workload ahead of backup Kevin Lankinen the rest of the way in order to maintain the Predators' hold on a playoff spot.

Binnington has won his past two outings, stopping 62 of 65 shots during that span. In 48 appearances this season, he has a 24-18-3 record with a 2.80 GAA and a .913 save percentage.

Jarry was the first goalie to exit the ice Tuesday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports, indicating he'll be between the road pipes versus New Jersey.

Jarry will be looking for a bounceback performance after getting the hook against the Rangers on Saturday. The 28-year-old netminder has managed just one win in his last five outings, going 1-3-1 with a 4.48 GAA and an .880 save percentage. If Jarry can get just one more victory, he'll reach the 20-win mark for the fifth straight season.
