Greaves will start Tuesday's home contest against the Flames, per Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers.

After a solid outing in Sunday's win over the Mammoth, Greaves will be called upon for the second straight game amidst Elvis Merzlikins' struggles to stay healthy and post consistent numbers. Greaves' win Sunday snapped Columbus' 0-3-1 winless drought. The 24-year-old netminder has a 13-12-6 record with a 2.71 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 31 outings this season. Entering Tuesday's contest, Calgary has generated 2.48 goals per game this season, which ranks second-worst in the league, giving Greaves a favorable matchup.

Miner gave up four goals on 31 shots (.871 save percentage) in a 4-3 loss to Toronto on Monday.

Miner was given the second consecutive start after having blanked the Blue Jackets on Saturday but wasn't nearly as sharp. Once Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) returns to the lineup, the 24-year-old Miner will be headed back to AHL Colorado, where he figures to spend the rest of the 2025-26 campaign, barring additional injury concerns.

Thompson will get the starting nod at home versus the Canadiens on Tuesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

Thompson has secured just one win in his last five outings, going 1-3-1 with a 2.80 GAA and a .908 save percentage. If the backstop can maintain those ratios, he should start racking up more victories, assuming he can get more offensive support and could challenge for the 30-win mark.

Knight stopped 31 of 34 shots on net in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.

After missing the team's last two contests due to an illness, Knight had a decent outing that saw his stats get inflated by a late goal from Leon Draisaitl in the final minute of the contest. Overall, the 24-year-old Knight has a 13-12-6 record with a 2.63 GAA and a .910 save percentage through 31 games this season. While his first full season with the Blackhawks has seen its ups and downs, the young netminder has been a positive addition for the team and has kept Chicago in many games with his play alone. He is on pace to set a new career high in nearly all major stat categories, making him a great option for two-goalie fantasy formats for the remainder of the year. His next chance to bounce back is Thursday against Calgary.

Ingram halted 29 of 30 shots on goal in Monday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.

Ingram earned his way back into the win column with a great outing, allowing just one goal to Tyler Bertuzzi late in the third period. With Monday's victory, the 28-year-old goalie has a 4-2-1 record with a 2.70 GAA and a .904 save percentage across seven appearances this season. Ingram has two wins over his last three starts with 80 saves during that span. While Calvin Pickard will likely play the second half of the team's back-to-back, Ingram has a solid chance to start Thursday at home against the Islanders.

Woll gave up three goals on 34 shots in a 4-3 victory over the Avalanche on Monday.

Woll is riding a three-game winning streak during which he posted a 1.31 GAA, .958 save percentage and one shutout. With the Leafs in the midst of a back-to-back, Woll figures to get the night off versus the Mammoth on Tuesday, but should be back between the posts for Thursday's road clash with Vegas.

Ellis turned away 28 of 31 shots on net in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers.

With the game tied 2-2 entering the final period, Ellis allowed one even-strength tally before the Panthers buried an empty-netter near the end of the contest. With Monday's loss, the 25-year-old netminder now has a 5-4-0 record with a 3.11 GAA and a .900 save percentage across 10 outings this season. Since his return to the lineup from a concussion that kept him sidelined for the majority of December and the start of January, Ellis has a 1-1-0 record with a .921 save percentage across two appearances. With Alex Lyon (lower body) sidelined for at least a few more games, Ellis should get at least one more start in relief of Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen as he tries to work his way into a more consistent role in the Sabres' crease. Ellis' next chance to take the ice is Wednesday against the Flyers.

Bobrovsky stopped 20 of 23 shots on net in Monday's 4-3 win over the Sabres.

Bobrovsky played with a lead for the majority of the contest and allowed just one goal in each period en route to his second straight win. With Monday's victory, the 37-year-old netminder is up to a 19-12-1 record with a 2.90 GAA and an .881 save percentage through 32 outings this season. While his play hasn't been what it was over the previous two seasons, he's done enough to earn his way into the win column nine times since Dec. 6. With the Panthers' offense coming to life in their most recent pair of wins, Bobrovsky should continue to benefit as long as he starts to trend towards a .900 save percentage on the season. His next chance to take the ice is Friday in Carolina.

Johansson made 20 saves in a 5-1 win over the Flyers on Monday.

Well, well, well -- look at this. Johansson has won three straight games, allowing eight goals (.895 save percentage) in that span. He's a goalie who can get the Lightning wins, but he struggles to keep his counting stats to the league average. At the same time, Johansson isn't a fantasy liability, so you can get him in your blue paint when you know he's the starter.

Vladar made 21 saves on 25 shots in a 5-1 loss to the Lightning on Monday. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

Vladar played well, but his team was still shaken from Saturday's 7-2 loss to Bolts. It was his first regulation loss since Dec. 28, and he'd gone 3-0-1 in his next four contests. Vladar has been a very pleasant surprise for the Flyers. He's 16-7-4 with a 2.42 GAA and .907 save percentage in 27 starts this season, and he's already set a career mark for wins.
