DeBrincat was added to the COVID-19 reserve list on Monday.

Getting added to the COVID-19 reserve list means that DeBrincat likely will not be available for the Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back in Nashville. DeBrincat's roommate Adam Boqvist was also added to the list, so Chicago could be without two of their best offensive weapons in a tough series with the Predators.

Gibson led the Ducks onto the ice for warmups.

Gibson allowed two goals on 33 shots in the Ducks loss in Vegas on Saturday. Gibson opened the season with back-to-back losses in Vegas but stopped 55 of the 61 shots that he faced (.902 SV%), so he’s off to a decent start to the season. Tonight he faces a Wild team that he was 1-1-0 with an .898 SV% in 2020.

Talbot will start Monday in Anaheim.

Talbot gave up three goals on 33 shots in the Wild’s win in Los Angeles on Saturday. Talbot has had a steady start to the season, opening the year at 2-0 while stopping 61 of the 67 shots (.910 SV%) that he’s faced. On Monday he has a strong chance to move to 3-0 against an Anaheim team that is searching for offence early in the season.

Rasmussen will draw into the Red Wings lineup on Monday afternoon.

With Robby Fabbri out because of COVID-19 protocol, Rasmussen will make his season debut on Monday afternoon. Rasmussen will centre Detroit's second line and comes in after picking up 18 points (5G / 13A) in 18 games with Graz EC during his COVID loan in the Austria's top league.

Gibson will start the Ducks season opener in Vegas.

Gibson started 50-plus games for the third time in 2020 but set career-worts in GAA (3.00) and SV% (.904) behind a Ducks team that finished with the fifth-worst record in the NHL. Anaheim didn't too much to improve this offseason, so it could be a similar storyline in 2021 and he should especially be avoided tonight in Vegas. Gibson was 1-2-1 with a 4.48 GAA and .878 SV% in four games vs. the Golden Knights a season ago.
