Skinner stopped 18 of 23 shots in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Islanders.

Skinner's five-game winning streak came to a crashing halt with this performance. This is the second outing in a row that he's given up five goals, so the upcoming Olympic break should provide a beneficial reset for the 27-year-old netminder. He's now at a 19-12-5 record with a 2.79 GAA and an .890 save percentage over 36 starts. The Penguins have been alternating goalies lately, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see Arturs Silovs get the nod versus the Sabres on Thursday.

Sorokin stopped 31 of 35 shots in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers.

Sorokin has four wins over his last six games, but he's allowed at least three goals in four of those outings. While he hasn't had the sharpest performances, he's still getting results. The 30-year-old netminder is up to 19-13-2 with a 2.48 GAA and a .915 save percentage over 34 starts this season. The Islanders head into the Olympic break after their next game, which is Thursday versus the Devils.

Grubauer will protect the road goal versus the Ducks on Tuesday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.

Grubauer was on the bench for the last two games as the Kraken continue to be unpredictable with their goaltending split. He's won two of his last three games, but his loss in that span was Jan. 23 versus the Ducks in Seattle, when he allowed three goals on 30 shots. Grubauer went 5-2-2 with a 2.21 GAA and a .921 save percentage in nine appearances in January.

Dostal will guard the home goal versus the Kraken on Tuesday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.

Dostal has won seven of his last eight games, posting a .930 save percentage in that span. The Kraken are also coming into this game hot, having won four straight games, though their last loss was a 4-2 defeat to the Ducks on Jan 23. Dostal started that game and stopped 20 of 22 shots in Seattle.

Ellis will protect the road net against Tampa Bay on Tuesday, Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News reports.

Ellis will get the second half of Buffalo's back-to-back after Alex Lyon played in Monday's 5-3 win over Florida. The 25-year-old Ellis has a 7-4-0 record with a 3.05 GAA and an .898 save percentage through 12 appearances this campaign. Tampa Bay ranks second in the league during the 2025-26 season with 3.49 goals per game.

Vasilevskiy will guard the home goal versus the Sabres on Tuesday, Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site reports.

Vasilevskiy has won 14 of his last 15 starts, posting a 1.89 GAA and a .922 save percentage. His most recent win was a little shaky, as he allowed five goals on 34 shots during the Stadium Series versus the Bruins on Sunday. Vasilevskiy will have a tough task Tuesday, as the Sabres are 7-2-1 in their last 10 games.

Bussi will start Tuesday's home clash with the Senators, per Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News.

Bussi will draw his second consecutive start Tuesday after leading the team onto the ice for warmups. He has won each of his last five starts and has been exceptional in that span with a .917 save percentage and a 1.80 GAA. Overall, the 27-year-old netminder has a 21-3-1 record, a 2.21 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 25 appearances this season. He'll look to continue his strong 2025-26 campaign in a matchup against a strong Ottawa offense that ranks ninth in the NHL with 3.33 goals per game.

Markstrom will patrol the home crease against Columbus on Tuesday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

Markstrom is coming off a 27-save performance in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over Nashville. He has a 15-12-1 record this campaign with a 3.24 GAA and an .881 save percentage through 29 appearances. Columbus is tied for 17th in the league with 3.09 goals per game this season.

Reimer will protect the road goal versus the Hurricanes on Tuesday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.

Reimer has gone 2-2-1 over his first five outings with the Senators. His most recent game was a 5-2 win over the Avalanche on Wednesday, though he faced just 18 shots. Reimer lost to the Hurricanes in his start before that, giving up four goals on 19 shots, so this is likely to be a challenging matchup for him.

Stevenson will defend the road net against Philadelphia on Tuesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

Stevenson will make his third straight start, and his second in two nights. He has won his previous two outings while stopping 48 of 52 shots, including a 29-save performance in Monday's 4-1 victory over the Islanders. Philadelphia ranks 21st in the league with 2.91 goals per game this season.
