Dan Vladar G | PHI

Vladar will patrol the home crease against New Jersey on Saturday, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Georgi Romanov G | STL
Blues' Georgi Romanov: Posts shutout in AHL
Romanov recorded a 33-save shutout in AHL Springfield's 2-0 win over Utica on Friday.
Neither team has been all that good to begin this season, and it showed with the low-scoring game. Springfield's struggles have led to Romanov opening the year 1-5-0 with a 3.38 GAA and a .901 save percentage, with Friday's effort being his first win. He signed just before the start of the season after attending the Devils' camp on a professional tryout, so this may have been a modicum of revenge for the 25-year-old goalie to beat New Jersey's farm team.

Darcy Kuemper G | LA
Kings' Darcy Kuemper: On wrong side of overtime loss
Kuemper stopped 24 of 26 shots in Friday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Bruins.
Morgan Geekie was responsible for both goals Kuemper gave up. The 35-year-old Kuemper continues to put in decent performances, but he's 0-1-1 despite allowing just four goals on 51 shots over his last two games. Overall, the veteran netminder is at 7-4-4 with a 2.38 GAA and a .906 save percentage through 15 outings. The Kings' next game is Monday versus the Senators.

Jeremy Swayman G | BOS
Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Claims overtime win
Swayman stopped 31 of 32 shots in Friday's 2-1 overtime win over the Kings.
Neither team scored until the third period, and Swayman can't be faulted for yielding a shorthanded tally to Joel Armia. That was the only mistake for Swayman and the Bruins, and Morgan Geekie's two goals lifted them to the win. This was Swayman's sixth win in his last seven outings and one of his best performances of the season. He's now 9-5-0 with a 2.84 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 14 appearances. The 26-year-old has been starting two of every three games, and if that trend continues, he'll face the Sharks on Sunday before Joonas Korpisalo closes out the road trip versus the Islanders on Wednesday.
