Talbot has been the only reliable netminder for the Kings this season and as such, appears to be the starter on Thursday against the Ottawa Senators. In seven games (4-2-1), Talbot has a respectable 2.47 GAA and .914 SV% but has been even more impressive of late, allowing only five goals (.936 SV%) in his last three contests (2-0-1). The Kings are slight -109 road favourites against a Senators team that, despite an unremarkable 4-4-0 start, has had no trouble scoring goals, ranking fifth in the league offensively (4.00 GF / GP).

Talbot will start for the Kings on Tuesday as they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs. Talbot, who has a 2.72 GAA and .905 SV% through six games (3-2-1), has been the clear favourite between the pipes for the Kings as backup Phoenix Copley has struggled tremendously with a horrid 4.98 GAA and .788 SV% through three games (1-0-1). The Kings are +140 road underdogs against a Maple Leafs team that has points in four straight games (3-0-1).

Holl currently sits tied for 10th in the NHL with his +7 plus/minus but is the odd man out of the Red Wings lineup Monday as they take on the New York Rangers. The 31-year-old defenseman was signed to a three-year, $10.2 million contract in the off-season and has three assists, one SOG, 10 PIMs, and a +7 plus/minus in eight games so far in 2023-24.

Petry will return to the lineup for the Red Wings after missing the last three games. In four games this season, Petry has two points (0G / 2A), six penalty minutes, and seven hits. He will likely play with Ben Chiarot on the Red Wings' third defensive pair.

Mrazek allowed three goals on 43 shots (.930 SV%) for his third straight loss in his previous start vs. Boston but will be rewarded with the start Friday vs. Vegas. The 31-year-old goaltender has played well despite most of his starts turning into losing efforts as he has a 1-3-0 record, .925 SV% and 3.03 GAA. He draws the near-impossible task of facing the undefeated Vegas Golden Knights, who have started 2023-24 with a 7-0-0 record and are fourth in the NHL in goals per game (3.86).

Lagesson was called up on Friday from the Marlies (AHL), likely to replace Jake McCabe, who was injured after playing only 10 seconds on Friday and has been ruled out for the Maple Leafs Saturday night matchup against the Nashville Predators. In five games with the Marlies this season, Lagesson has one point (0G / 1A) and a -2 plus/minus rating.

DeBrincat was absent from Wednesday's morning skate due to illness but did skate Thursday and was a game-time decision vs. Winnipeg. The 25-year-old has been off to an absurd start during his Detroit tenure as he leads the NHL in goals (9) and is third in points (13) while adding 23 SOG and a +6 plus/minus across seven games thus far in 2023-24.

Petry missed the Red Wings' previous two contests due to an upper-body injury but is expected to return to the lineup Saturday vs. Boston. Petry was acquired in the offseason for Gustav Lindstrom and a conditional fourth-round pick in 2025 and has two assists, four SOG, six PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through four games in 2023-24.

DeBrincat's status for the Red Wings Thursday night matchup against the Winnipeg Jets will be determined closer to puck drop. DeBrincat is off to a blistering start, scoring 13 points (9G / 4A) in his first seven games this season.

Campbell will start for the third time in four games as the Oilers look for just their second win of the season on Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild. After a terrible opening night performance that saw him allow four goals on 16 shots, Campbell has garnered a 2.50 GAA and .934 SV% in his two games since (1-1-0). The Oilers were last year's top offensive team (3.96 GF/GP) but after five games this season are averaging only 2.60 goals per game while being outscored 20-13 (1-3-1). Campbell and the Oilers will hope they can do a better job defensively as they will be without captain Connor McDavid.

Mrazek will be the starter for the Blackhawks on Tuesday against the Boston Bruins. Mrazek hasn't finished a season with a save percentage above .894 in two campaigns, but after three games (1-2-0) has a .924 SV% and has played well in each of them. That said, Mrazek and the Blackhawks will have their work cut out for them as they enter their matchup as +203 home underdogs against a Bruins team that has yet to lose (5-0-0).
