Forsberg stopped 29 of 31 shots in Monday's 3-2 shootout win over the Predators.

Forsberg is just two wins away from reaching 15 for the third time in his career, although he might fall short of accomplishing that goal since the Kings have only five regular-season games left. Forsberg is ending the campaign on a strong note, though. Over his last five outings, the 33-year-old veteran has posted a 2.51 GAA and a .912 save percentage despite a not-so-impressive 2-2-0 record.

Saros stopped 26 of 28 shots in Monday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Kings.

Saros was beaten in the first and second periods, each time by wristers courtesy of Joel Armia and Scott Laughton, and he ended up being tagged with the loss after the shootout. Despite the outcome, this was a step in the right direction for Saros, who was coming off three straight games in which he had posted a save percentage below the .900 threshold. It remains to be seen whether Saros or Justus Annunen will get the nod for the second leg of the back-to-back set against the Ducks on Tuesday.

Bussi will protect the home net against Boston on Tuesday, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

Bussi has stopped 76 of the 86 shots he has faced during his four-game winning streak. He has a 29-6-1 record this campaign with two shutouts, a 2.46 GAA and an .894 save percentage through 36 appearances. Boston is tied for 10th in the league with 3.27 goals per game this season.

Wedgewood will between the road pipes against the Blues on Tuesday, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.

Wedgewood has gone 3-1-0 with a 1.48 GAA and a .940 save percentage over his last four appearances, with his most recent performance being a 17-save shutout in Dallas on Saturday. The Avalanche lost to the Blues in Colorado on Sunday, but Mackenzie Blackwood was in goal for that game. This will be Wedgewood's first start against St. Louis in 2025-26. He is 3-1-1 with a 2.21 GAA and a .923 save percentage across five regular-season games against the Blues during his career.

Nedeljkovic stopped 27 of 29 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.

The 30-year-old goaltender is putting up solid numbers to close out the regular season, and he's won his last three starts while Yaroslav Askarov has been struggling. Thus, it's not surprising to see both goaltenders splitting the workload with San Jose still alive in the playoff race. During his three-game winning run, Nedeljkovic has posted a 1.67 GAA and an impressive .932 save percentage.

Knight stopped 20 of 23 shots in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Sharks.

Knight was beaten twice in the second period and once more in the third, and the Blackhawks went from being up 1-0 to down 3-1 in the process. Knight has been struggling massively of late and is ending the regular season on a sour note despite being Chicago's No. 1 goaltender. He's lost his past six starts, a stretch in which he's gone 0-4-2 with a 3.40 GAA and an .897 save percentage. The Blackhawks have four more games left on the schedule, and all of them will be at home, with the next one being against the Hurricanes on Thursday.

Skinner (eye) said Tuesday that he feels good and his vision has improved, according to Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports.

Skinner was struck near his eye by a puck while sitting on the bench during Saturday's game against Florida, per DK Pittsburgh Sports. Skinner's status for Thursday's game in New Jersey has yet to be determined, but if he's unavailable, Arturs Silovs will more than likely get the start, while Sergei Murashov would be the backup in that scenario.

Jarry will be between the pipes for Tuesday's road matchup against Utah, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.

Jarry has stopped 33 of 36 shots en route to winning his last two outings. He has posted a record of 18-9-2 with two shutouts, a 3.26 GAA and an .884 save percentage in 31 games this season between Edmonton and Pittsburgh. Utah ranks 12th in the league with 3.26 goals per game this campaign.

Tarasov will guard the road goal against Montreal on Tuesday, per Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.

Tarasov has one victory in his past seven appearances (1-5-0) while surrendering 29 goals on 212 shots. He has a 10-15-2 record this season with a 3.21 GAA and an .892 save percentage across 29 appearances. Montreal sits fifth in the league during the 2025-26 campaign with 3.45 goals per game.

Greaves will defend the road net against the Red Wings on Tuesday, according to Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers.

Despite stopping 106 of the 117 shots he has faced, Greaves has gone 0-3-1 in his last four outings. He has a 24-16-9 record in the 2025-26 campaign with two shutouts, a 2.58 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 50 appearances. Detroit is tied for 21st in the league this season with 2.90 goals per game.
