Jarry stopped 26 of 30 shots in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Penguins.

Jarry has now defeated all 32 NHL franchises throughout his career, and although this wasn't his finest outing, he earned the win in a high-scoring matchup. He has gone three straight outings with a save percentage below the .895 mark, and he's given up seven goals on 58 shots in his first two appearances with the Oilers.

Fowler stopped 17 of 20 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Flyers. The fourth goal was an empty-netter in the final stages of the third period.

Fowler made his third start of the campaign, and he posted a save percentage of .850 or lower for a second straight contest. He's now given up eight goals over his last two outings. If Montreal decides not to carry three goaltenders, Fowler might return to the minors after Sam Montembeault returns from his conditioning assignment with AHL Laval on Sunday.

Binnington will get the starting nod for Thursday's clash with the Rangers, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Binnington will take the second half of the Blues' back-to-back after Joel Hofer tends the twine at home versus the Jets on Wednesday. For his part, the 32-year-old Binnington has underwhelmed of late, going 2-3-1 with a 4.51 GAA in his last six outings.

Hofer will start Wednesday's home game against the Jets, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Hofer has seen an uptick in playing time recently, and he'll draw a third consecutive start Wednesday. Over his last seven appearances (five starts), he's gone 3-2-0 with a 2.13 GAA and a .924 save percentage. Winnipeg has 3.03 goals per game this year, which ranks 17th in the NHL.

Vladar stopped 21 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Canadiens.

Vladar allowed a goal to Alexandre Texier in the first period, but that was all the offense the Canadiens could muster. Vladar has been playing very well of late and has posted a save percentage of at least .935 in three of his last four starts. He has posted a 2-0-2 record and a 1.70 GAA over that stretch. He has a tight grip on the No. 1 goaltender role in Philly.

Quick stopped 14 of 16 shots in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to the Canucks, with Vancouver's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

The veteran netminder didn't get a whole lot of help, but Quick also wasn't at his sharpest, letting a long-range shot from Liam Ohgren trickle through him for the Canucks' second goal. Quick hasn't picked up a win since Nov. 7, going 0-3-1 over his last four starts despite a 2.49 GAA and a .917 save percentage. He also missed a couple of weeks during that span due to a lower-body injury.

Demko turned aside all 23 shots he faced in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Rangers.

The 30-year-old netminder recorded his first shutout of the season in style, surviving four power-play opportunities for New York. Demko has won two of three starts since returning from a lower-body injury. He has gone 7-5-0 in 13 outings with a 2.45 GAA and a .910 save percentage this season. The fact that Demko has started three straight games since his recovery is an encouraging sign that the Canucks don't intend to go easy on him in an effort to keep him healthy.

Swayman stopped 20 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Mammoth.

Utah took an early 1-0 lead on a Barrett Hayton power-play tally midway through the first period, but Swayman shut the door the rest of the way. It was a strong bounce-back performance from the 27-year-old netminder after he surrendered six goals to the Wild on Sunday. However, that was a rare misstep for Swayman, who has gone 11-4-0 in 15 starts with a 2.42 GAA and a .920 save percentage since the beginning of November.

Vanecek made 19 saves in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Bruins.

The Mammoth potted the game's first goal, but it was all Bruins after that, with Vanecek really only being to blame for one of them when he failed to control a rebound early in the second period. The 29-year-old netminder hasn't gotten into the win column since Oct. 26, going 0-6-1 over his last seven outings with a 3.43 GAA and a brutal .855 save percentage.

Tarasov is expected to start at home against the Kings on Wednesday, per George Richards of Florida Hockey Now.

Tarasov will be looking for a better result after stopping 36 of 42 shots en route to a 6-2 loss to Colorado in his last start Thursday. He's 3-5-1 with a 2.84 GAA and a .903 save percentage in 10 appearances this season. The Kings rank 28th in goals per game with 2.59.
