Benn has not played since January 4th because of an upper-body injury, but will return to the lineup on Monday against the Los Angeles Kings. The veteran 36-year-old signed a team-friendly deal laced with bonuses based on reaching games-played milestones, including $500,000 for reaching 60 games. Benn has already missed 22 games this season, so he will be hard-pressed to make sure he doesn't miss another and miss out on a lucrative bonus.

Carlsson did not finish practice on Monday, and it is unclear whether his ailment will affect his status for Tuesday's game against the Dallas Stars. The 21-year-old Carlsson is having an excellent season for Anaheim, with 44 points (18G / 26A) in 44 games, but has drifted off in recent weeks as the Ducks have struggled, being held off the scoresheet in nine of the team's last 11 games.

Miller exited Sunday's 4-3 win over the New Jersey Devils late in the first period because of a lower-body injury and he has subsequently been placed on Injured Reserve. The 33-year-old defenseman is averaging 13:45 time-on-ice and has one assist in 15 games this season. Winnipeg has recalled Phillips from Manitoba (AHL) in a corresponding move.

The 27-year-old Oettinger has seen his totals fall in recent weeks, boasting a 2.76 GAA and .900 SV% in 28 games (16-8-4). The Stars enter Monday's contest as -117 road favorites against a typically low-scoring Kings team that is on an offensive surge, averaging 3.5 goals per game over its past eight games (4-3-1).

Ilya Lyubushkin will be a healthy scratch on Monday, allowing Petrovic to re-enter the lineup against the Los Angeles Kings. The 33-year-old Petrovic has been a regular for the Stars this season, but has been a healthy scratch several times in the past couple weeks. He is averaging 15:48 time-on-ice, recording nine points (2G / 7A), 61 blocks, and 67 hits in 41 games this season.

Alex Petrovic will draw back into the Stars' lineup on Monday against the Los Angeles Kings, sending Lyubushkin to the press box as a healthy scratch. The 31-year-old Lyubushkin is averaging 16:33 time-on-ice, recording seven points (1G / 6A), 51 hits, and 58 blocks in 33 games this season.

Lizotte is in his second season with the Penguins and continues to be an effective bottom-six defensive forward, earning himself a three-year, $6.75 million contract extension. The 28-year-old forward is averaging 13:57 time-on-ice and has 10 points (5G / 5A) in 35 games this season.

Kuemper has been a driving force for a low-scoring Kings team all season, but he finds himself in a rough stretch, having allowed four or more goals in four of his last five games (2-2-1). Before this most recent rough patch, Kuemper was playing excellently, posting a 2.04 GAA and .924 SV% in his previous 20 games (10-5-5). The Kings enter Monday's contest as slight +106 home underdogs against a reeling Dallas Stars team that has lost seven of their last eight games (1-3-4).

Ivan Ivan will draw back into Colorado's lineup on Monday against the Toronto Maple Leafs, sending Tynan to the sidelines as a healthy scratch. The 33-year-old Tynan made his season debut in Colorado's most recent game, recording 8:13 time-on-ice and tallying one shot on goal.

Ivan made his NHL debut last season and scored eight points (5G / 3A) in 40 games with the Avalanche, but has spent most of the 2025-26 campaign in the AHL. The 23-year-old Czech forward has eight points (2G / 6A) in 30 games with the Eagles (AHL) this season. T.J. Tynan will exit the lineup as a healthy scratch.

Woll's play over his past five games has shown a wide contrast: allowing one or fewer goals three times, including two shutouts, while allowing four or more in the other two, yet he continues to get the result, going 4-0-1. That said, the 27-year-old Woll has been highly reliable tending the twine for the Maple Leafs this season and has helped his team record a point in 10 of his last 11 games (9-1-1) while posting a solid 2.24 GAA and .922 SV%. Still, the Maple Leafs enter Monday's contest as significant +202 road underdogs against the league-leading Colorado Avalanche, who have outscored their opposition 12-2 in their last two games (2-0-0).

Stolarz has been out since November 11th, but is getting close to a return to the Maple Leafs crease and has a chance to return before the Olympic break according to Head Coach Craig Berube. Joseph Woll and Dennis Hildeby have performed well in his absence, but the team will likely send Hildeby back to the Marlies (AHL) when Stolarz is cleared to play.

Karlsson has not played since early November and is seemingly no closer to a return, as few details have been revealed regarding his lower-body injury. The 33-year-old Karlsson has seven points (4G / 3A) in 14 games and the remainder of his 2025-26 season could be in jeopardy.

Woll's play over his past five games has shown a wide contrast: allowing one or fewer goals three times, including two shutouts, while allowing four or more in the other two, yet he continues to get the result, going 4-0-1.

Thomas is battling a lower-body injury and his status for Tuesday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes is uncertain. The 26-year-old Thomas is coming off a two-point performance (1G / 1A) and has 33 points (11G / 22A) in 42 games this season.

Broberg exited Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights early in the first period because of a concussion. He will not play on Tuesday against the Carolina Hurricanes, but Blues Head Coach Jim Montgomery said Broberg's progress has been encouraging.
