Lindbom was reassigned to AHL Henderson on Sunday, according to SinBin.vegas.

Carter Hart (suspension) was recalled from his conditioning loan with the Silver Knights on Saturday and is eligible to suit up Tuesday versus the Blackhawks, which resulted in Lindbom's demotion. The 22-year-old Lindbom made seven appearances with the big club, posting a 1-4-2 record, 3.14 GAA and .870 save percentage. The 2021 seventh-round pick will now shift his focus to working on his game in the minors.

Cossa posted a 26-save shutout in AHL Grand Rapids' 1-0 win over Iowa on Sunday.

Cossa is up to two shutouts this season and five in his career. The 23-year-old netminder has dominated the AHL this year with an 8-1-0 record, a 1.56 GAA and a .942 save percentage in nine games. He's done everything he can at this point to earn a call-up, and continued strong play could help him push for regular NHL minutes as soon as 2026-27.

Mrazek sustained an undisclosed injury during Sunday's game versus the Blackhawks, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

Mrazek was replaced between the pipes by Ville Husso after getting hurt in the final frame. Prior to getting injured, Mrazek surrendered three goals on 16 shots. The Ducks play in the second half of a back-to-back Monday in St. Louis, so the team might provide an update on the netminder's status in the near future.

Ullmark will defend the road net against Dallas on Sunday, per Julian McKenzie of The Athletic.

Ullmark has won his last three outings while stopping 72 of the 79 shots he has faced. He has a 9-5-4 record with a 2.94 GAA and an .880 save percentage through 18 appearances this season. Dallas is tied for fifth in the league with 3.40 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign.

DeSmith will start Sunday's game against the Senators, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

DeSmith and Jake Oettinger have alternated games for the last week, and the 34-year-old DeSmith will take his turn Sunday. DeSmith has not allowed more than two goals in a start in his last four appearances, recording a save percentage of at least .920 in each one. He brings a 5-1-2 record, 2.20 GAA and .919 save percentage into this game against the Senators, whom Dallas defeated 3-2 in overtime Nov. 11.

Kochetkov (lower body) won't be in the lineup for Sunday's home matchup against Calgary, and there is no timeline for his return, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Kochetkov will miss his sixth straight game. He has been limited to only five appearances this season while posting a 4-0-0 record and allowing seven goals on 95 shots. Frederik Andersen and Brandon Bussi will probably continue to share starts until Kochetkov returns.

Cooley will start Sunday's game against the Hurricanes, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

With Sunday's start, Cooley will start back-to-back games. The 28-year-old has outplayed Dustin Wolf, so the workload in Calgary's crease may be starting to shift more in Cooley's favor. Cooley carries 3-2-1 record, 2.00 GAA and .930 save percentage, and he has won three straight decisions.

Mrazek will guard the road goal against the Blackhawks on Sunday, per the NHL media site.

Mrazek has gone 0-3-0 in his last three outings while allowing eight goals on 81 shots. He has stopped 163 of the 185 shots he has faced en route to a 3-3-0 record through six appearances this season. Chicago is tied for ninth in the league with 3.13 goals per game in the 2025-26 campaign.

Knight will patrol the home crease against Anaheim on Sunday, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Knight has gone 0-2-1 in his last three outings while surrendering eight goals on 77 shots. He has a 7-5-4 record with a 2.47 GAA and a .920 save percentage through 16 appearances this season. Anaheim sits second in the league with 3.63 goals per game this campaign.

Bussi will protect the home net against Calgary on Sunday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Bussi will make his second straight start after a 12-save performance in Friday's 5-1 win over Winnipeg. He has a 6-1-0 record while allowing only 17 goals on 168 shots through seven appearances this season. Calgary ranks 32nd in the league with 2.42 goals per game in the 2025-26 campaign.
