Bratt has been in the lineup for the last three games and picked up one assist in those games, but will be replaced by Travis Zajac (undisclosed) tonight in Vegas.

Bernier, who had to leave his first start after a concussion after being hit in the head by a shot, was reportedly feeling better on Monday but he remains out indefinitely. Bernier missed nearly one month the first time around, but head injuries and concussion recovery times always vary. Spencer Martin was recalled but Semyon Varlamov will likely start every game until Bernier is back.

Allen allowed two goals on 40 shots in the Blues blowout win in Los Angeles on Saturday. Allen has really turned his game around in his last two starts, stopping 72 of the last 75 shots (.960 SV%) that he has faced. Tonight he faces the Ducks for the third time this season—he is 0-2-0 with a 3.10 GAA and .875 SV% in the first two meetings.

Markstrom gave up two goals on 34 shots in the Canucks loss to the Coyotes on Wednesday. Markstrom was battling an illness on Friday, but he’ll return to the crease tonight and face Arizona again. Marsktrom is 1-1-0 with a 1.52 GAA and .961 SV% vs. the Coyotes this season.

Allen allowed just one goal on 35 shots in the Blues loss in San Jose on Thursday. It was a tough luck loss for the Blues’ netminder, who is still searching for his 20th win of the season. He recorded the ‘W’ in his first start vs. the Kings this season, a 26-save performance in a 4-2 win vs. L.A. in late-October.

Bernier has been sidelined with a concussion since February 16th, but will return to the crease for his 30th start of the season this afternoon. Bernier filled in admirably for Semyon Varlamov earlier this season and Varlamov did the same for Bernier over the last month. Bernier is a great option today vs. the Coyotes—the 29-year-old is 11-4-0 with a 2.31 GAA and .930 SV% on home-ice this year.

Markstrom allowed three goals on 34 shots in the Canucks win over the Islanders on Monday. Markstrom snapped a personal three-game losing streak and moved to 18-21-6 on the season. He has a quality matchup with the Coyotes in town—the 28-year-old stopped 41 of 42 shots in a 3-1 win over Arizona on February 25th.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 43 shots in the Canucks loss to the Predators on Friday. Markstrom has allowed zero, one, two, three and four goals (in that order) in his last five appearances, posting a .920 SV% in the process.

Markstrom was pulled after he allowed three goals on five shots in the Canucks loss to the Rangers on Wednesday. Markstrom wrapped up February at 3-5-0 with a 2.82 GAA and .913 SV% in nine starts and one relief appearance. He will be in tough tonight with the Predators in town—Markstrom is 9-12-2 with a 2.92 GAA and .905 SV% at Rogers Arena.

Bernier has missed the last six games with a concussion but was back at practice facing shots on Thursday. As is always the case with concussions, there is no firm timetable for Bernier’s return to Colorado’s crease, but Thursday was a big step.

Markstrom allowed two goals on 27 shots in the Canucks loss in Colorado on Monday. Despite starting back-to-back games, look for Markstrom to start for the third time in four nights tonight vs. the Rangers. He’s played very well as of late, stopping 74 of the last 77 shots that he has faced.

No one expected the Golden Knights to be buyers at their first trade deadline but here we are. Tatar has picked up 16 goals and 12 assists (28 points) in 62 games with the Red Wings this season and should be a great fit on Vegas’ third line with Cody Eakin and Alex Tuch.

Markstrom stopped all eight shots that he faced after replacing Anders Nilsson in the Canucks loss in Vegas on Friday. Markstrom missed the three games prior to Friday and tonight will be his first start since February 14th. Markstrom has gone 7-8-3 with a 2.70 GAA and .908 SV% in 20 road appearances this year.
