Burakovsky played only 1:40 time on ice before exiting Saturday's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets with a lower-body injury. He will be replaced by Kailer Yamamoto on Monday.
Daccord allowed more than three goals for only the second time since mid-November, allowing four goals on 34 shots (.882 SV%), but still managed to secure a 7-4 victory for Seattle, who is riding a nine-game winning streak.

Beniers played 11:04 TOI before leaving Saturday's win in Columbus with an upper-body injury. Head coach Dave Hakstol did not have an update on Beniers' status post-game, so consider him questionable to play Monday in Pittsburgh.

The Golden Knights recalled 2020 first-round pick Brendan Brisson earlier in the day, so he could potentially slide into the lineup for his NHL debut if Stephenson is unable to go on Monday. Stephenson has seven goals and 13 assists in 39 games this season.
The red-hot Kraken will turn to Daccord for the fifth straight game as they look to extend a season-best seven-game winning streak. Daccord has been sensational since taking the reigns between the pipes due to a Philipp Grubauer injury, helping his team record at least a point in his last 10 games (8-0-2) while posting an other-worldly .957 SV%. More impressively, during that stretch, Daccord has limited his opposition to two or fewer goals in nine of 10 games. With that in mind, the Kraken are -122 road favourites against a Washington Capitals club that has lost six of their last eight games (2-4-2).
One of the hottest goaltenders in the National Hockey League will get the chance to keep things rolling on Tuesday as Joey Daccord gets the nod for the Kraken in Buffalo. Daccord has been on a remarkable run of late, earning his team at least a point in nine straight starts while posting a ridiculous .952 SV% over that span. His recent run of form has seen his SV% climb to .922 on the season. He's a -110 favourite to pick up his sixth consecutive win in Buffalo on Tuesday.
Schwartz has been on long-term injured reserve since November 28th, missing 16 games with an upper-body injury, but returned to practice last week and is scheduled to play on Tuesday.

Meyers has appeared in eight games for the Avalanche this season and has a goal, six SOG, and a -1 plus/minus while averaging 9:41 TOI/GP and has been recalled Friday after being reassigned to the Colorado Eagles (AHL) Thursday. The 25-year-old miraculously does not have an assist in 52 career NHL games played dispite having six goals.
Daccord was outstanding against the Vegas Golden Knights in the Winter Classic on Monday, saving all 35 shots he faced for his second shutout of the season.

Seattle is a -124 home favourite on Thursday against the Ottawa Senators, who have lost two of their last three games (1-2-0).
