Hofer will be between the pipes in Tuesday's road game against the Jets, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Hofer will make his first start in eight days -- the 24-year-old was solid in his last appearance, stopping 27 of 29 shots in a 5-2 win over the Rangers. It was the Manitoba's native first victory since Oct. 19, as he hasn't received much work as Jordan Binnington's understudy. Hofer will have a tough matchup against a Winnipeg team that ranks third in the NHL with 3.76 goals per game through 25 contests.
