Bobrovsky will defend the road net against the Golden Knights on Monday, per Rob Darragh of the Panthers' official site.

Bobrovsky is coming off a 24-save performance in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Kings. He has a 7-4-0 record with one shutout, a 2.74 GAA and an .887 save percentage through 11 appearances this season. Vegas is tied for 12th in the league with 3.29 goals per game this campaign.

Lindbom was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports, indicating that he'll draw the home start against the Panthers.

Lindbom has yet to enter the win column this season, as he's gone 0-2-1 with a 3.35 GAA and .873 save percentage over his three starts for the Golden Knights. However, he's been in a timeshare with Akira Schmid while Adin Hill (lower body) has been sidelined, and that trend will continue Monday. The Panthers have struggled offensively early this season, scoring just 2.60 goals per game, which is tied for the fourth-worst mark in the NHL.

Murashov stopped 24 of 27 shots in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Kings.

Murashov's NHL debut came down to the final 10 minutes before he allowed the game-winning goal to Kevin Fiala. As he kept the Penguins in front through the second period, Murashov might have done enough to earn more looks between the pipes moving forward. With the team's starting goaltender Tristan Jarry set to miss time with a lower-body injury, Murashov will likely occupy the backup role while Arturs Silovs sees the largest bump in playing time. Murashov remains off the fantasy radar for the time being, but that could change if he picks up a win in Jarry's absence.

Kuemper made 31 saves on 33 shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Penguins.

Despite allowing a goal in each of the first two periods, Kuemper held on over the final 32 minutes of regulation while the Kings' offense pulled off the comeback win. Overall, the 35-year-old has a 5-3-3 record with a 2.52 GAA and a .905 save percentage in 11 appearances this season. With just one regulation loss over his last five games, Kuemper is finding his stride and has helped the Kings jump back into a tie for second place in the Pacific Division. In fantasy, he should be rostered in most formats and will likely play 50-plus games this season if he can stay healthy. His next opportunity to defend the Kings' net is Tuesday against Montreal.

Greaves will get the starting nod on the road against the Oilers on Monday, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Greaves will look to bounce back from his disappointing last time out, in which he gave up four goals on 25 shots in a 5-1 defeat to the Flames. With the Blue Jackets heading into a back-to-back, fantasy managers can expect Elvis Merzlikins to feature in the crease for Tuesday's road game versus the Kraken.

Skinner will serve as the starting netminder for Monday's home game against the Blue Jackets, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

Skinner hasn't been particularly sharp recently, going 1-1-2 with a 3.58 GAA and .875 save percentage over his last four starts. He was chased from Saturday's start against the Avalanche after allowing four goals on 13 shots (.692 save percentage), but he'll attempt to right the ship against the Blue Jackets, who are scoring 3.07 goals per game this year, which is tied for 16th in the NHL.

Sorokin was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports, signaling that he'll draw the road start against New Jersey.

Sorokin is coming off his first shutout win of the season, as he turned aside all 33 shots he faced against the Rangers on Saturday. He'll attempt to remain effective against a more formidable opponent in the Devils, who have scored 3.40 goals per game this year, which ranks seventh in the NHL.

Shesterkin was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports, indicating that he'll draw the home start against the Predators.

Shesterkin enters Monday's matchup in the midst of a two-game losing streak, but he'll have a favorable matchup against the Predators, who have scored just 2.53 goals per game to begin the regular season, which is the third-worst mark in the league. Over 12 starts this year, Shesterkin has gone 4-6-2 with a 2.41 GAA and .909 save percentage.

Gibson made 15 saves on 19 shots in Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Blackhawks.

Despite allowing four goals in Sunday's contest, three of those tallies came with a man advantage for Chicago, meaning Gibson allowed just one even-strength goal in garbage time. Overall, the 32-year-old has a 4-5-0 record with a 3.15 GAA and an .882 save percentage across nine appearances. After winning four of his first six appearances, Gibson has dropped three straight starts and is trending downward in fantasy. He is a risky spot start in all formats and is best left to waivers until he works his way back into the win column. Detroit's next game is at home versus Anaheim on Thursday, which would be Cam Talbot's turn in the crease, but the Red Wings may let Gibson get another look at his former team instead.

Soderblom stopped 45 of 46 shots on goal in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Red Wings.

Outside of a goal scored by Dylan Larkin four minutes into the contest, Soderblom thrived against a high shot volume. Sunday's performance became one to remember for the 26-year-old goaltender as he set a new career high in saves. Overall, Soderblom has a 2-2-1 record with a 2.63 GAA and a .913 save percentage across five appearances this year. It will take a few more strong outings for Soderblom to raise himself into fantasy relevance, but Sunday's performance could lead to more opportunities to guard the crease moving forward. That said, Spencer Knight has also played well, which may be enough to keep Soderblom in the backup role.
