DeAngelo was a healthy scratch on Saturday but will replace Frederik Claesson tonight vs. the Senators. DeAngelo has played very well this season, picking up eight points (2G / 6A) and 27 shots while playing 19:11 TOI/gm in 15 games.
Zuccarello remains sidelined with a nagging groin injury. Zuccarello returned to the lineup on Friday but was scratched on Saturday and will miss his second straight game on Monday. With Zuccarello out again, Tim Gettinger was recalled and will play his second NHL game.
Lundqvist allowed three goals on 45 shots in the Rangers loss in Philadelphia on Friday. The game would have been out of hand if it weren’t for Lundqvist, who faced 40-plus shots for the fifth time in 18 games. The 36-year-old has been impressive on a below-average team and draws a strong matchup with the Senators in town. Lundqvist is 7-3-0 with a 1.99 GAA and .937 SV% at Madison Square Garden.
Malgin missed Saturday’s game against the Blackhawks and the Panthers announced that he is day-to-day with an upper-body injury. With Malgin out, Dryden Hunt will play on the Panthers’ third line.
The Coyotes need a forward after trading Dylan Strome and Brendan Perlini to Chicago for just Nick Schmaltz. The 30-year-old forward has appeared in just 22 career NHL games but has collected 11 points (5G / 6A) in 10 games with Tucson this season.
Holtby allowed one goal on 32 shots in the Capitals win over the Red Wings on Friday. Since returning from a two-game absence, Holtby has won three straight games while posting a 1.11 GAA and .968 SV%. Holtby seems to have discovered the form that carried the Capitals to the Stanley Cup last year and that is great news for his fantasy investors.
Reimer surrendered five goals on 41 shots in the Panthers loss to the Blackhawks on Saturday. With Roberto Luongo sidelined again, Reimer is expected to start the vast majority of games until he’s back. The 30-year-old is 2-2-1 with a 3.45 GAA and .907 SV% in November. Despite below average play, tonight he sees a Devils team on the tail-end of a back-to-back.
Greiss stopped 26 of 27 shots in the Islanders win over the Hurricanes on Saturday. Greiss has quietly been one of the best goalies in the NHL this season and comes into Monday at 6-1-1 with a 2.48 GAA and .925 SV% in November. Additionally, Greiss is 5-2-1 with a 2.64 GAA and .915 SV% at Barclays Center but Monday’s matchup is as tough as they get.
Howard allowed two goals on 35 shots in the Red Wings 3-2 shootout loss to the Sabres on Saturday. Since October 30th, Howard is tied for fourth in the NHL in wins (6-1-1), eighth in SV% (.937) and 10th in GAA (2.07). Howard has been outstanding and the Red Wings have been one of the hottest teams in the NHL, but Columbus also comes in at 6-2-1 in their last nine contests.
Andersen allowed four goals on 24 shots in the Maple Leafs 4-2 loss in Columbus on Friday. Surprisingly, Andersen has lost two games in a row, which ties his longest losing streak of the season. Both of those losses came on the road and now he returns to Scotiabank Arena where he is 5-5-0 with a 2.03 GAA and .936 SV% in 10 starts this season.
Anderson allowed five goals on 53 shots in the Senators loss in Dallas on Friday. Anderson has been under siege all season long and it has come to a front as of late. In his last three starts, Anderson has allowed a combined 16 goals on 108 shots (.852 SV%). The Senators give up the second most scoring chances against and third most high-danger scoring chances against, so Anderson will continue to see a high number of shots whenever he’s in the crease.
Kinkaid allowed four goals on 35 shots in the Devils loss to the Islanders on Friday. With Cory Schneider starting last night, Kinkaid will climb back between the pipes on the tail-end of their back-to-back in Florida. Kinkaid has become difficult to trust on the road this season. Back on home-ice he has been dominant (2.25 GAA / .924 SV% / 3 SO) but is 2-4-0 with a 3.39 GAA and .898 SV% on the road.
