Glass suffered a lower-body injury against the Blues on Saturday and has been listed as week-to-week. The Golden Knights haven't given too many details but they don't expect it to be too long-term.

Markstrom allowed two goals on 51 shots in the Canucks win over the Kings last Saturday. It was a fantastic game for Markstrom, who has won four straight while posting a 2.24 GAA and .941 SV%. He has gone 7-5-2 with a 2.48 GAA, .924 SV% and one shutout on home-ice this year but will face a Chicago team that is heating up, winning five of their last six with 3.83 goals per game.
Hughes was banged up late in Tuesday's shootout win over the Bruins but returned to the game and played in overtime. He was on the ice for Thursday's morning skate but will not play tonight, but his availability for the skate suggests it's a very minor issue.
Allen allowed two goals on 36 shots in the Blues win in San Jose on December 21st. Jordan Binnington started the last three games but it looks like Allen will start New Year's Even in Arizona.

He draws a solid road matchup in Arizona, vs. a Coyotes team that has lost three in a row while scoring just 1.67 goals per game.
