Tatar has served the last four games as a healthy scratch but will draw back into the lineup on Wednesday against the Seattle Kraken. The Slovak forward has struggled this season and has zero points in his last six contests.
Siegenthaler has been sidelined with a concussion since March 11th. He'll draw back into the Devils' lineup as they continue to make a push for an unlikely postseason bid. The Devils did not confirm who will come out to make room for Siegenthaler, who has nine points (1G / 8A) in 49 games this season.
The Devils will turn to Allen for a third consecutive game when they host the Penguins on Tuesday night. Allen allowed three goals on 34 shots enroute to a 5-2 loss to the Sabres on Friday. The 33-year-old netminder owns a 4-3-0 record and a .923 SV% in seven starts since being acquired from the Canadiens. He draws a favourable matchup on Tuesday with the Devils being -170 favourites against a tired Penguins team that will be playing their second game in as many nights.
The Flames are fresh off an impressive 4-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings and will roll with Markstrom in the crease for a second straight game. Markstrom has seen limited action the last month due to injuries but has allowed three or fewer goals in three straight (1-2-0), including saving 16 of 18 shots (.889 SV%) in his last outing. The Flames enter action on Tuesday as significant -233 home favourites.
Kaiden Guhle will return to the Canadiens' lineup after serving a one-game suspension and will replace Kovacevic. Kovacevic played 16:05 time-on-ice and recorded three shots on goal in his last contest.
Hatakka was a healthy scratch for the Devils' last two games and was reassigned to Utica (AHL) on Monday. The 23-year-old picked up two assists during his 12-game showing with New Jersey and is expected to be replaced by the returning Jonas Sieganthaler (concussion).
With Kaiden Guhle receiving a one-game suspension for a slash, Jonathan Kovacevic will take his spot and return to Montreal's lineup on Saturday vs. Carolina. The 26-year-old has impressed during his 55 game stint this season, with his six goals, nine points, 40 PIMs and +9 plus/minus.
The Devils will turn right back to Allen after his outstanding performance in Toronto on Tuesday. The 33-year-old netminder stopped 42 of the 45 shots he faced as the Devils downed the Maple Leafs by a score of 6-3. Allen has posted a 4-2-0 record and an impressive .925 SV% across six starts with the Devils since being acquired from the Canadiens. He's got a great chance of staying in the win column on Friday as the Devils find themselves as -130 favourites in Buffalo.
Glass will get the chance to play in Arizona on Thursday as Anthony Beauvillier draws out of the lineup. Glass has five goals and five assists in 36 games this season.
Sprong will draw in for Patrick Kane, who is a late scratch due to illness. Sprong has 17 goals and 23 assists in 68 games this season.
Gruden will take a seat on Thursday as Jeff Carter draws back into the Penguins' lineup. Gruden has one goal in 13 NHL games this season.
Cotter will play on Tuesday as the Golden Knights opt to get some fresh legs into the lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. William Carrier will sit in his place.
Despite Kaapo Kahkonen recording a shutout in a 4-0 win over the New York Islanders on Sunday, the Devils will return to Allen in the crease on Tuesday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Allen has been solid since joining the Devils but had his first misstep in his last outing, allowing five goals on 25 shots (.800 SV%) in a 5-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators. The Devils enter action as +127 road underdogs against the Maple Leafs.
Gruden will draw into the Penguins' lineup after being recalled from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL) shortly before gametime. Gruden has spent the majority of the season bouncing between Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Pittsburgh, with his most recent appearance for the Penguins coming on March 19th. He has one goal in 12 NHL games this season.

The Flames, losers of three straight, will turn to Markstrom for the second time in the last three games. Markstrom lost in his return from a two-week absence due to a lower-body injury, allowing three goals on 25 shots (.880 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday. The Flames will look to snap their winless skid as they are -171 road favourites against the Chicago Blackhawks.
Tatar and Kailer Yamamoto will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday for Seattle, allowing Logan Morrison and Ryan Winterton to draw into the lineup. Tatar has struggled this season and has zero points in his last six games.
Lazar did not play on Sunday due to a lower-body injury but will likely draw back into the lineup on Tuesday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Lazar has two points (0G / 2A) in his last six games.
