Wedgewood will start on the road against the Penguins on Tuesday, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.

Wedgewood has followed up his five-game winning streak with back-to-back defeats. One of those losses came to Pittsburgh last week, as Wedgewood was pulled after allowing three goals on just five shots in a 7-2 defeat. Overall, it's been a solid campaign for the 33-year-old, who is 25-5-6 with a 2.19 GAA and a .916 save percentage through 38 outings. Wedgwood and Mackenzie Blackwood are seemingly still competing for the No. 1 netminding gig ahead of the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs, as neither player has taken the reins as the clear-cut starter.

Rielly (lower body) will be back in the lineup against Boston on Tuesday, per Luke Fox of Sportsnet.

After sitting out Saturday's 5-2 loss to Ottawa, Rielly will return to a top-four role and should see time on the power play against the Bruins on Tuesday. He has accounted for nine goals, 33 points, 125 shots on net and 96 blocked shots across 67 appearances this campaign.

Soderblom will defend the road cage against the Islanders on Tuesday, according to Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

Soderblom has picked up just two wins in the calendar year -- he's 2-4-2 with a 3.25 GAA and an .890 save percentage over eight appearances since Jan. 4. The 26-year-old will face an Islanders team that is in the thick of the playoff race in the Eastern Conference and has netted 12 goals over its last five games, a stretch in which the Isles are 3-2-0.

Stolarz will defend the road net against Boston on Tuesday, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

Stolarz will return to the crease after missing his scheduled start against Ottawa on Saturday. He took a puck to the throat during the pregame warmups and visited the hospital as a precaution, but he was back on the ice for Monday's practice. Stolarz made 36 saves in a 4-2 win over Minnesota on March 15 during his last outing. He has gone 8-9-3 with a 3.34 GAA and an .894 save percentage across 22 appearances this season. Boston ranks 10th in the league with 3.30 goals per game this campaign.

Kaprizov (lower body) will be in the lineup Tuesday in Tampa Bay, per Joe Smith of The Athletic.

Kaprizov missed the last two games but will be in action for this cross-conference meeting between two of the NHL's top teams. Barring any restrictions after dealing with a lower-body injury, Kaprizov should reclaim his roles on the top line and No. 1 power-play unit against Tampa Bay.

Jeannot (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision against Toronto on Tuesday, per Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald.

Jeannot sported a non-contact jersey during Monday's practice and participated in Tuesday's optional skate. However, he could miss his first game since Jan. 3. He has registered six goals, 21 points, 70 shots on net, 206 hits and 59 PIM across 66 appearances this season.

Daccord is expected to start on the road against the Panthers on Tuesday, Sound of Hockey reports.

Daccord has lost back-to-back games and five of his last six -- he's surrendered 21 goals on 157 shots (.866 save percentage) during that time. The 29-year-old netminder is 19-18-5 with a 2.90 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 42 appearances in 2025-26. Daccord turned aside 23 of 25 shots against the Panthers in a 6-2 win March 15.

Hellebuyck is slated to start at home against the Golden Knights on Tuesday, according to Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

Hellebuyck has lost his last three outings while conceding a total of 13 goals on 82 shots (.841 save percentage). The Michigan native has had mixed results over 10 appearances in March, posting a 4-3-3 record with a 2.86 GAA and an .890 save percentage. Vegas is coming off a 3-2 win in Dallas on Sunday, but the Golden Knights lost three consecutive games before that.

Silovs will tend the home twine Tuesday versus Colorado, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.

Silovs has won back-to-back games and three of his last four while splitting time in the crease with Stuart Skinner. The 25-year-old Silovs has a 16-9-8 record, .892 save percentage and 2.92 GAA through 33 appearances this season. The Latvian netminder will face the Avalanche for the second time in just over a week -- Silovs made 25 saves on 27 shots during a 7-2 win in Colorado last Monday.

Gibson will serve as the starting netminder at home versus Ottawa on Tuesday, per Ansar Khan of MLive.com.

Gibson will feature in the crease for his ninth straight game Tuesday. The 32-year-old is 3-4-1 with a 2.36 GAA and a .914 save percentage over his last eight appearances. The Red Wings should have the upper hand in this matchup -- Ottawa's blue line has been decimated by injuries, and the Sens are on the second half of a back-to-back, but Dylan Larkin's (leg) availability is in question Tuesday.
