Varlamov allowed four goals on 39 shots in the Islanders' loss to the Penguins last Thursday. The loss snapped a five-game winning streak for Varlamov, who will make his ninth start of the season on Wednesday. The 31-year-old enters play at 3-2-1 with a 3.04 GAA and .904 SV% in six starts on home ice.
Panik has missed the last 10 games with an upper-body injury but will play Monday vs. the Coyotes. Panik struggled in his first eight games with the Capitals, failing to record a point with a minus-1 rating and seven shots. He'll skate on the third line with Lars Eller and Chandler Stephenson on the Capitals' third-line.
Schneider surrendered seven goals on 23 shots in the Devils loss to the Lightning on October 30th. Mackenzie Blackwood has started the last four games but Schneider will get a chance to get back in the crease on the tail-end of a back-to-back in Western Canada. The 33-year-old is still looking for his first win of the season, going 0-3-1 with an ugly 4.71 GAA and .847 SV% in his first five starts.
Andreoff has had a nice start to the AHL season, posting three goals and four assists (seven points) in 10 games with Lehigh Valley. He was fourth among Syracuse Crunch (AHL) forwards in points (55) in 75 games last season but has never played more than a fourth-line role in the NHL. He has just 24 points (13G / 11A) in 159 career NHL games, all with the Los Angeles Kings.
Varlamov stopped all 27 shots that he faced in the Islanders shutout win in Buffalo last Saturday. Varlamov has won five in a row while posting a 1.58 GAA, .947 SV% and one shutout. On Thursday, he will face a Penguins team that is 3-3-0 despite averaging 4.17 goals per game on the road this season.
Varlamov surrendered three goals on 31 shots in the Islanders win over the Flyers last Sunday. Thomas Greiss started last night so look for Varlamov to get the second game of their back-to-back in Buffalo. He comes into play on a four-game winning streak, posting a 1.96 GAA and .935 SV% in the process. He is a good option whenever the Islanders call on him.
After just six AHL games, Boqvist was called up and the 2018 No.8 overall pick will make his NHL debut in Los Angeles. The 19-year-old defenseman will play on the top pair with Duncan Keith at even-strength and on the second power-play unit.

Boqvist was the No.8 overall pick in 2018 and has registered just one goal in six games with Rockford this season. He is an under-sized, offensive-minded defenseman that had 60 points (20G / 40A) in 54 games with the London Knights (OHL) last season. The Blackhawks continue to make a commitment to younger players, as Boqvist's promotion comes one day after they said Kirby Dach will remain with the team.
Martin suffered a lower-body injury in Ottawa last Friday and the Islanders immediately announced that he will miss at least one month. So moving him to IR simply opens up a roster spot for the Islanders to call-up Otto Koivula from Bridgeport (AHL).
Schneider allowed six goals on 34 shots in the Devils loss to the Panthers on October 14th. The Devils have had a weird schedule as of late and MacKenzie Blackwood has started the last three games, so Schneider will make his first start in over two weeks. He is 0-3-0 with a 4.08 GAA and .876 SV% in four starts this season, so stay far away against the Lightning--even though they played last night and could be without three regulars.
Reilly has been a healthy scratch for six straight games but will replace Brett Kulak on the Canadiens' blueline on Saturday. Reilly recorded one assist in the two games he has played this season.
Varlamov stopped 32 of 33 shots in the Islanders win in Winnipeg last Thursday. Varlamov and Thomas Greiss have alternated starts this season and tonight is Varlamov's turn in the rotation.

Tonight he faces a Coyotes team that has won four straight while averaging an impressive 4.25 goals per game.
Cizikas has missed the last five games with a lower-body injury but will play Thursday vs. the Coyotes. Cizikas plays quite a bit (13:04 ATOI) in a fourth-line role but doesn't carry any fantasy value. He has one assist in three games this season.

Panik was forced to leave Wednesday’s game against the Maple Leafs after colliding heavily with teammate Jonas Siegenthaler. Immediately moving him to LTIR means it’s a fairly significant upper-body issue and means that he will miss at least 10 games or 24 days. Garnet Hathaway is expected to move up to the third line in Panik’s spot.
