The Devils have recalled Misyul from the Utica Comets of the AHL in correspondence to Cal Foote taking an indefinite leave of absence. In his first professional season in North America, Misyul has 11 points (3G / 8A) in 30 games with Utica.
The Devils have recalled Dowling from the Utica Comets of the AHL in correspondence to Michael McLeod taking an indefinite leave of absence. The 33-year-old Dowling has 19 points (8G / 11A) in 30 games with Utica this season.
Talbot will take the crease for the first time in four games after yielding it to David Rittich for the last week but is expected to start Wednesday vs. Buffalo. The 36-year-old finds himself in the midst of an eight-game losing streak but still holds a respectable 14-11-5 record, 2.43 GAA and .915 SV%. He'll take on the Buffalo Sabres, who are on the back end of a back-to-back and have lost their last two contests.
Saville will rejoin the AHL's Silver Knights now that Adin Hill and Logan Thompson are both finally back healthy for the Golden Knights. Saville has posted a respectable .913 SV% in eight games with Henderson this season, though he's yet to see any game action with the Golden Knights.
Hayden will sit on Wednesday as Kailer Yamamoto draws back into the lineup in his place. Hayden is yet to register a point in two games with the Kraken this season.
Yamamoto will draw in for John Hayden, who is a healthy scratch on Wednesday. Yamamoto has seven goals and five assists in 42 games this season.
After a come-from-behind 4-3 victory against the Calgary Flames last night, the Blues will switch to Hofer between the pipes on the back end of a back-to-back. Hofer has started about one of every three games for the Blues lately but has not been able to consistently lead them to victory. The 23-year-old Hofer is 0-3-0 in his last three starts, allowing three or more goals in each, posting a pedestrian .900 SV%. The Blues are sizeable +211 road underdogs against a red-hot Vancouver Canucks team that has won eight of their last nine contests (8-1-0).
Robinson will fill in for Zach Benson, who will get the night off for the second game of Buffalo's back-to-back. Robinson has two goals and four assists in 21 games this season.
Benson will get the night off on Wednesday as the Sabres are set to play their second game in as many nights. Eric Robinson will draw into the lineup in his place.
Bryson will draw in for the injured Mattias Samuelsson (undisclosed). Bryson is yet to register a point in three games with the Sabres this season.
Samuelsson is considered day-to-day with the undisclosed injury. He'll be replaced by Jacob Bryson in the Sabres' lineup on Wednesday.
Levi will get his first chance back between the pipes for the Sabres since being recalled from Rochester (AHL) on Sunday. Levi's last outing came on January 9th, when he surrendered five goals on just 26 shots as Buffalo fell to the Kraken by a score of 5-2. Time will tell if the three appearances Levi made in the AHL helped him sort out his game, but the Sabres will be hoping their young netminder can improve on the .889 SV% he's posted across 19 NHL appearances this season. He draws a difficult assignment in his return with the Sabres being +160 underdogs in Los Angeles.
Georgiev will start his third straight game in a Wednesday night matchup against the Washington Capitals. Despite salvaging a respectable 6-3-0 record, Georgiev has been leaky between the pipes lately, posting a .885 SV% while allowing three or more goals in all but one contest. Colorado is a -255 home favourite against a Washington club that the Minnesota Wild defeated 5-3 last night.
Despite Philipp Grubauer being ready to return from a lower-body injury, it will be Daccord between the pipes for the Kraken when they host the Blackhawks on Wednesday. To say that Daccord deserves to hold onto the starting job in Seattle would be a massive understatement. Since Grubauer suffered the lower-body injury on December 9th, Daccord has been one of the best goaltenders in the NHL, posting a 10-4-3 record and a .939 SV% across 17 starts. He draws a dream matchup at home on Wednesday with the Kraken being -300 favourites over the Blackhawks.
Morrissey blocked a shot late in the first period of Wednesday's game and did not return. We should expect to receive an update on the injury following the conclusion of Wednesday's game.
Perunovich will fill in for the injured Justin Faulk (undisclosed). Perunovich has no goals and nine assists in 28 games this season.
Blues interim-head coach Drew Bannister added Faulk is day-to-day with the lower-body injury. Scott Perunovich will draw into the lineup in Faulk's place.
van Riemsdyk will sit out Wednesday's game in Colorado as Ethan Bear draws back in. van Riemsdyk has no goals and seven assists in 38 games this season.
Bear will re-enter the Capitals' lineup in place of the scratched Trevor van Riemsdyk for Wednesday's game in Colorado. Bear has one goal and one assist in 11 games this season.
Ullmark will be back between the pipes for Wednesday's game against the Hurricanes after Jeremy Swayman got the nod against the Jets on Monday. Ullmark allowed four goals on just 21 shots in Saturday's game against the Canadiens, though he still cruised to an easy victory thanks to his teammates spotting him nine goals. The 2022-23 Vezina Trophy winner hasn't quite lived up to the lofty standards he set last season, but he's still been more than effective with a 14-5-2 record and .912 SV% to his name. He draws a tough assignment on Wednesday as the Bruins play host to the mighty Hurricanes.
