Andersen is expected to start at home against Washington on Wednesday.

Andersen will attempt to extend his six-game winning streak. He's saved 141 of 150 shots (.940 save percentage) over that stretch. The 35-year-old is 12-5-0 with a 2.01 GAA and a .919 save percentage across 17 outings this season. The Capitals are a challenging opponent, leading the league in goals per game with 3.64.

Demko is slated to start at home against Seattle on Wednesday, per Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com.

Demko has an 8-7-3 record, 2.84 GAA and .892 save percentage across 20 appearances in 2024-25. He stopped 24 of 27 shots (.889 save percentage) en route to a 3-1 loss to Winnipeg on Sunday. Seattle ranks 16th in the NHL in goals per game with 2.97.

Swayman stopped 28 of 32 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals.

The Capitals scored on Swayman twice in the first period, including a tally by Alex Ovechkin, who moved one goal closer to breaking Wayne Gretzky's all-time record. Swayman then let in two more goals during the third period. The Bruins have been slumping of late to the tune of nine straight defeats, and Swayman has played in six of those matchups, going 0-6-0 with an inflated 4.97 GAA and a subpar .840 save percentage over that stretch.

Lindgren stopped 21 of 24 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Bruins.

Lindgren continues to rotate with Logan Thompson between the pipes for the Capitals, and he continues to respond whenever he's called upon. Lindgren has gone 3-2-0 with a 2.62 GAA and a .901 save percentage over his last five appearances, but the fact that he's posted a save percentage below .890 in three of those outings could be concerning for fantasy managers who are considering Lindgren as a streaming option.

Binnington stopped 20 of 21 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Red Wings.

The Blues are on a roll and Binnington has played a huge role in that regard, winning each of his last six starts and allowing two or fewer goals five times in that stretch. In fact, the 31-year-old star netminder has given up exactly one goal in each of his last four appearances, posting a 1.00 GAA and an elite .963 save percentage over that span.

Talbot stopped 35 of 37 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Blues.

Talbot was only 29 seconds away from securing a shutout in a 1-0 win, but Jordan Kyrou's 32nd goal of the season sent the game to overtime, and Cam Fowler's backhand gave the Blues the win. Despite the loss, Talbot had a strong showing between the pipes. He's given up two or fewer goals in each of his last three starts, going 1-1-1 with a 1.50 GAA and a .950 save percentage in that span.

Knight is expected to start at home against Colorado on Wednesday, per Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio.

Knight has allowed four goals in each of his past three outings, stopping just 58 of 70 shots (.829 save percentage) across that stretch. He's 15-14-1 with a 2.65 GAA and a .901 save percentage in 32 outings between Florida and Chicago in 2024-25. Colorado ranks sixth in goals per game with 3.32.

Gustavsson will start Wednesday's road game against the Rangers, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

Gustavsson was relatively sharp over 13 appearances in March, going 7-4-2 with a 1.98 GAA and .930 save percentage. He's coming off back-to-back losses but will attempt to turn things around against the Rangers, who rank 13th in the NHL with 3.01 goals per game.

Stolarz will get the starting nod at home versus the Panthers on Wednesday, Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun reports.

Stolarz and Joseph Woll have been splitting the workload of late, with Stolarz featuring in six of the Maple Leafs' last six contests. In those appearances, the 31-year-old netminder is undefeated while sporting a 2.00 GAA and .929 save percentage. Given the recent rotation, look for Woll to go against the Blue Jackets on Saturday before Stolarz is back in the crease versus the Panthers again Tuesday.

Mandolese was elevated from AHL Colorado on Wednesday.

Mandolese's elevation to the NHL roster could be an indication that Mackenzie Blackwood or Scott Wedgewood will be unavailable versus Chicago on Wednesday. With a back-to-back on the schedule, it's possible that Mandolese will get into his first NHL games since the 2022-23 campaign, when he was with the Senators.
