Gibson allowed three goals on 30 shots in the Ducks loss in Columbus last Friday. Ryan Miller gave him the night off on Saturday, so Gibson will get back in the crease tonight in Vegas. The 24-year-old is 3-3-0 with a 3.51 GAA and .901 SV% in seven road starts this season.

Brossoit allowed five goals on 34 shots in the Oilers win in Calgary on Saturday. Since Cam Talbot went down with injury, Brossoit has allowed a combined 10 goals on 69 shots (/855 SV%) in two starts. The young netminder has had a tough season, making him a risky spot start, even against a struggling Philadelphia team.

Connor missed Sunday’s games against the Senators because of a lower-body injury, but traveled with the Jets to Detroit and is expected to play tonight. Connor took part in line rushes at the morning skate and was back in his spot on the top line with Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler. Connor has been great since being called up, recording 17 points (9G / 8A) in 21 games.

Markstrom made 35 saves on 36 shots in the Canucks win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday. Markstrom has just two wins in his last seven starts and has allowed at least three goals in five of those games. Tonight the Canucks host the Hurricanes and Markstrom comes in at 3-5-2 with a 2.49 GAA and .919 SV5% on home-ice this season.

Lehner allowed four goals on 25 shots in the Sabres loss to the Penguins last Friday. Lehner has just two wins in his last 10 appearances, posting a 2.75 GAA and .909 SV% in the process. Tonight he gets the nod in Colorado and the 26-year-old has been a disaster on the road—going 2-6-1 with a 4.24 GAA and .868 SV%.

Megna, 24, has one assist in 11 games with the Ducks this season and one assist in three games with San Diego. Megna has been recalled because Hampus Lindholm is questionable for tonight’s game due to an upper-body injury.

Lindholm missed Monday’s practice and is listed as questionable for tonight’s game against the Golden Knights. With Lindholm in question, the Ducks are expected to recall Jaycob Megna from San Diego (AHL).

Since returning to the Vegas crease, Subban has three wins with a 2.27 GAA and .919 SV% in four starts and one relief appearance.

Hellebuyck stopped all 21 shots that he faced in the Jets’ shutout win over the Senators on Sunday. Hellebuyck has started six straight games, winning four of them with a 2.42 GAA, .910 SV% and one shutout. He is a must-start in Detroit against a Red Wings team that is on a seven-game losing streak (0-4-3).

Lundqvist allowed one goal on 33 shots in the Rangers win over the Hurricanes. Lundqvist has been victorious in five of his last six starts while posting a 1.68 GAA, .945 SV% and one shutout. In his first start against the Penguins, Lundqvist allowed five goals on 33 shots in a 5-4-overtime loss.

Lovejoy has appeared in 16 games this season, picking up just four points (1G / 3A). Tonight he will sit and Steve Santini will take his spot on the blueline.
