Hellebuyck is slated to guard the road goal against San Jose on Sunday, according to Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

Winnipeg won't hold a morning skate ahead of Sunday's contest, and Hellebuyck went through his starting routine during Saturday's practice. He is coming off a 35-save effort in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to Anaheim. Hellebuyck has a 13-16-8 record this season with a 2.84 GAA and an .899 save percentage across 37 outings. San Jose sits 18th in the league with 3.04 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign.

Daccord was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network reports, indicating he will protect the home net against Vancouver on Saturday.

Daccord stopped 28 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Dallas. He has a 16-13-5 record during the 2025-26 campaign with a 2.84 GAA, a .902 save percentage and two shutouts through 34 appearances. Vancouver is tied for 29th in the league with only 2.53 goals per game this season.

Ingram will start Saturday's road clash in San Jose, per Paige Martin of Oilers TV.

Ingram is set to appear in his third consecutive game out of the Olympic break. He'll enter Saturday's clash with momentum after making 21 saves in an 8-1 win against the Kings on Thursday. Overall, the 28-year-old goaltender has a 7-5-1 record, a 2.58 GAA and an .899 save percentage over 15 outings this season. San Jose has a respectable 3.04 GAA this season. Ingram's solid sample of play following the Olympic break could give him a chance to grab the starting job in Edmonton if he can use Saturday's contest to launch a win streak.

Andersen will patrol the home crease against Detroit on Saturday, per Peter Dewar and Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

Andersen has gone 0-0-2 in his past two outings for the Hurricanes while surrendering seven goals on 64 shots. He has a 7-10-5 record this campaign with a 3.26 GAA and an .871 save percentage through 22 appearances. Detroit ranks 20th in the league with 2.95 goals per game during the 2025-26 season.

Askarov will patrol the home crease in Saturday's clash with Edmonton, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.

Askarov will get the nod for his second start since the Olympic break, and his fourth in a row dating back to the beginning of February. He has gone winless over his last four outings with an .874 save percentage, which is marginally lower than his season average. Across 36 appearances this campaign, the 23-year-old netminder has a 17-16-2 record, a 3.52 GAA and an .888 save percentage. He'll have a tough task in net Saturday against an Edmonton team that ranks third in the NHL with 3.52 goals per game in 2025-26.

Woll will defend the home net versus Ottawa on Saturday, Dave McCarthy of NHL.com reports.

Woll is 13-8-4 with two shutouts, a 2.92 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 26 appearances this season. Woll stopped 26 of 31 shots in a 7-5 win over the Senators on Dec. 27. Ottawa is 13th in the league with 3.26 goals per game in 2025-26.

Thompson made 24 saves in Friday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights.

The 29-year-old netminder took a 3-0 lead into the third period before withstanding a furious comeback attempt from Vegas. Thompson has won three straight starts sandwiched around the Olympic break, allowing five goals on 79 shots during that span. He has gone 21-16-4 this season with a 2.40 GAA and a .913 save percentage.

Schmid turned aside 27 shots in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Capitals.

All three Washington goals came in the second period on 12 shots, as Vegas' defense got caught flat-footed on multiple occasions. Schmid has just one win in his last five starts dating back to Jan. 22, going 1-3-1 over that stretch with a 3.02 GAA and .885 save percentage.

Tarasov stopped 36 of 38 shots in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres, with Buffalo's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

With the game tied 1-1 midway through the third period, Beck Malenstyn put Buffalo in the lead with a shot from the blue line. However, Tarasov felt his glove was impeded by Mattias Samuelsson's stick, which prevented him from making the save. However, the Panthers lost the coach's challenge for goaltender interference. Tarasov had coughed up 10 total goals over his prior two outings, so even though it was a third straight loss, it was an encouraging performance from the 26-year-old netminder. On the season, Tarasov sports an 8-9-2 record with a 2.80 GAA and .903 save percentage.
