Binnington will be between the road pipes Tuesday in Toronto, according to Luke Fox of Sportsnet.

Binnington has alternated wins and losses across his last six appearances, as he's been unable to find his form in 2025-26. The Ontario native is 2-2-2 and has conceded 20 goals on 149 shots during that span. The Leafs are 0-4-1 in their last five contests but have generated 3.53 goals per game this season, which ranks fourth in the NHL.

Vasilevskiy is slated to guard the crease at home versus the Devils on Tuesday, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports.

Vasilevskiy has appeared in eight of the Lightning's last 10 outings, posting a 6-2-0 record and a 2.35 GAA along the way. It's a strong turnaround for the veteran backstop after he started the year on a five-game losing streak. With no back-to-backs on the short-term schedule, Vasilevskiy should see a heavy workload to close out November and figures to be near the top of the games-played list at the end of the year.

Bobrovsky turned aside 10 shots in Monday's 8-5 win over the Canucks.

Florida outshot the visitors 41-15 on the night, but Vancouver's chances all came in high-danger areas as Bobrovsky's defense hung him out to dry on a number of occasions. Fortunately for the veteran netminder, the Panthers' offense set a new season scoring high. Bobrovsky has faced fewer than 20 shots in four of his last eight starts, but he's just 5-3-0 during that stretch with a shaky 3.27 GAA and .856 save percentage.

Patera stopped 33 of 40 shots in Monday's 8-5 loss to the Panthers, with Florida's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

The wild back-and-forth affair saw the Canucks take a 2-0 lead in the first period, fall behind 5-2 midway through the second, then rally to tie it up in the third before the Panthers finally pulled away. Patera didn't give up any egregiously bad goals, but he also showed some nerves at times, which perhaps shouldn't have been surprising considering his first NHL start of the season was coming against the two-time defending Stanley Cup champs. Kevin Lankinen should continue to get most of the work while Thatcher Demko (lower body) is sidelined, but Vancouver has back-to-back sets coming up each of the next two weekends, so Patera figures to get at least a little more action while up with the big club.

Sogaard (undisclosed) has been given the green light to suit up for AHL Belleville, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports Tuesday.

Sogaard's return provides the Sens with some organizational depth, but he is unlikely to be promoted to the NHL any time soon. In his three appearances for Belleville this year, the 24-year-old Sogaard has posted a record of 0-1-1 with a 3.80 GAA and an .830 save percentage.

Ellis made 32 saves in Monday's 5-1 win over the Oilers.

The 25-year-old rookie mostly shut down the high-powered Edmonton offense en route to his second straight win and third in four starts. Ellis is making a case to become more than just the third wheel in the Buffalo crease, posting a 3.02 GAA and a .907 save percentage while starting three of the last four contests, but he'll be tough to rely on in most fantasy formats as long as Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen and Alex Lyon are both still in the picture.

Lindgren stopped 30 of 31 shots in Monday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

Lindgren held on down the stretch to grab his first win since Oct. 12, his first start of the season. With his trip back to the win column, the 31-year-old netminder has a 2-3-1 record with a 3.16 GAA and an .893 save percentage across six games this season. He remains firmly behind starting goalie Logan Thompson on Washington's depth chart, but more performances like Monday's could bring the share of games closer to an even split. For now, Lindgren is best deployed as a spot start in fantasy. If Thompson gets the nod in the Capitals' home game versus Edmonton on Wednesday, then there is a chance the team will turn to Lindgren one night later for Thursday's road matchup against the Canadiens.

Kuemper made 23 of 25 saves in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Capitals.

Kuemper surrendered one goal in each of the first two periods, which would be all the offense the Capitals needed to hand their former netminder a loss. Overall, the 35-year-old netminder has a 7-4-3 record with a 2.42 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 14 outings this year. Monday's defeat ended a four-game win streak for Kuemper, who still hasn't allowed more than three goals in a matchup this month. He remains a strong starting option in all formats and has a chance to reach the 30-win mark this year for the third time in the past five regular seasons. His next chance to bounce back is Thursday in San Jose.

Skinner turned aside 23 of 27 shots in Monday's 5-1 loss to Buffalo, with the Sabres' final goal getting scored into an empty net.

The 27-year-old netminder didn't get much help offensively or defensively, and Skinner had little chance on any of the four pucks that got past him. He's given up four goals in three of his last five starts, and over seven outings in November, he's gone 4-2-1 despite a lackluster 3.18 GAA and .880 save percentage.

Swayman stopped 29 shots in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

After a scoreless first period, Carolina struck twice in the second with both goals getting jammed home from right on Swayman's doorstep, while the Boston offense didn't get a puck past Pyotr Kochetkov until there were 10 seconds left in the third. It was Swayman's first loss in November, and on the month he's gone 5-1-0 with a 2.47 GAA and a .920 save percentage.
