    Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Set to start Wednesday

    Hill led the Golden Knights onto the ice, indicating he'll be between the pipes on the road versus the Red Wings on Wednesday.

    Akira Schmid played Tuesday in a loss to the Sabres, and Hill will take the second half of the back-to-back. The 29-year-old Hill is just 4-4-1 with a 3.77 GAA and an .846 save percentage over his last nine outings. The Red Wings have gone 2-1-0 over three games since the Olympic break, scoring eight goals in that span.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Starting again Wednesday

    Markstrom will protect the home goal versus the Maple Leafs on Wednesday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

    Markstrom was in goal for the Devils' 5-1 win over the Panthers on Tuesday. That light workload will allow him to go again a day later. The Maple Leafs are sitting out three regulars for trade protection, so he'll draw a struggling team with a diminished lineup in this matchup, which could help Markstrom in his pursuit of a three-game winning streak for the first time all season.

  • Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Set to face Vancouver

    Bussi is expected to start on the road against Vancouver on Wednesday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

    Bussi has a 24-3-1 record, 2.33 GAA and .904 save percentage in 28 appearances in 2025-26. He's won his past eight outings while posting a 2.00 GAA and a .911 save percentage. Vancouver is an extremely favorable adversary. The Canucks are 2-16-4 while averaging just 2.00 goals per game across their past 22 outings.

  • Joel Hofer G | STL

    Blues' Joel Hofer: Starting Wednesday's game

    Hofer will start Wednesday's road game against Seattle.

    Hofer has picked up wins in each of his two starts following the Olympic break, and he'll draw the start for the third time in the Blues' four games since the layoff. He's made a pair of home starts against the Kraken this year, going 1-0-1 with a 2.46 GAA and .907 save percentage.

  • Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Drawing start against Carolina

    Lankinen will start Wednesday's home game against the Hurricanes, Farhan Lalji of TSN reports.

    Lankinen has struggled since the start of the calendar year, going 1-10-1 with a 4.13 GAA and .857 save percentage over his last 14 appearances. He made a road start against Carolina on Nov. 14 and allowed four goals on 38 shots in an overtime loss, and the Hurricanes rank sixth in the NHL with 3.40 goals per game this year.

  • Panthers' Louis Domingue: Inks one-year deal

    Domingue signed a one-year, two-way contract with Florida on Wednesday.

    Domingue has been playing for AHL Charlotte on a minor-league only deal, going 3-3-0 with an .831 save percentage in seven contests. The decision to add the veteran backstop to the organizational depth chart for the rest of the 2025-26 campaign could be a sign that the Panthers will be making changes in their goalie room. Still, Domingue will end up on waivers Wednesday to return to the Checkers in the minors.

  • Maple Leafs' Anthony Stolarz: Between pipes against Devils

    Stolarz will tend the twine on the road versus New Jersey on Wednesday, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.

    Stolarz has secured just one victory in his last six outings, posting a 1-3-1 record, 3.18 GAA and .894 save percentage. With the 32-year-old New Jersey native getting the nod Wednesday, fantasy managers can look for Joseph Woll to guard the crease for Thursday's road clash with the Rangers.

  • John Gibson G | DET

    Red Wings' John Gibson: Sitting out Wednesday

    Gibson (upper body) will not suit up against the Golden Knights on Wednesday, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.

    Gibson has appeared in eight of the Red Wings' last nine outings, going 3-3-1 with a 2.14 GAA. The 32-year-old netminder is day-to-day after skating on his own Wednesday, and he is feeling better. Still, Gibson will miss at least one contest, which will result in Cam Talbot starting, and Sebastian Cossa serving as the backup.

  • Jets' Connor Hellebuyck: Snaps losing skid

    Hellebuyck stopped 18 fo 20 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

    Hellebuyck finally snapped a five-game losing skid (0-2-3) and posted a strong showing in this win. While he was excellent with Team USA during the Olympics, things haven't been good with the Jets. Hellebuyck has gone 1-0-2 with a 2.89 GAA and a .903 save percentage since the NHL resumed play following the break. He has a 14-16-9 record this season with a 2.80 GAA and a .900 save percentage.

  • Cam Talbot G | DET

    Red Wings' Cam Talbot: In goal Wednesday

    Talbot will be between the pipes at home against the Golden Knights on Wednesday, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Talbot secured the win against Nashville on Monday after stepping in for John Gibson (upper body), stopping 18 of 19 shots on net. The Red Wings brought up Sebastian Cossa from the minors to serve as the No. 2 netminder versus Vegas on Wednesday.
