Sparks is 4-7-1 with a 2.45 GAA and .927 SV% in 12 AHL games this season. With Marc-Andre Fleury leaving the team to tend to a family illness, Sparks comes up and is expected to backup Malcolm Subban on Wednesday.

Sparks allowed two goals on 14 shots after replacing Marc-Andre Fleury in Vegas’ loss to the Avalanche last Friday. With Malcolm Subban back on the ice on Monday, Sparks heads back to Chicago, where he is 2-2-1 with a 2.15 GAA and .936 SV% this season.

Oscar Dansk struggled in his NHL appearance, so Sparks come up to serve as Marc-Andre Fleury's backup while Malcolm Subban is out. Sparks has started the 2019-20 season at 2-2-1 with a 2.15 GAA and .936 SV% in five AHL games.

Sparks is expected to go to Vegas to be their third string netminder after going 8-9-1 with a 3.15 GAA and .902 SV5 in 20 games with the Maple Leafs last season. It will likely take an injury to Marc-Andre Fleury and/or Malcolm Subban for Sparks to reach the NHL in 2020.

With Frederik Andersen starting last night, Sparks will face the Penguins in Toronto, where he is 3-1-1 with a 2.78 GAA, .911 SV% and one shutout this season.

Sparks has missed the last five games with a concussion but will be available to serve as Frederik Andersen’s backup on Monday. The Maple Leafs have a back-to-back in Florida later this week, so look for Sparks to get in net once this week.
