Anderson (upper body) will return to the lineup against Carolina on Tuesday, according to Eric Engels of Sportsnet.

After missing the last two games, Anderson will return to a bottom-six role versus the Hurricanes. He has contributed 13 goals, 22 points, 78 shots on net, 112 hits and 52 PIM across 61 appearances this season.

Ullmark will start Tuesday's road clash against the Red Wings, per Ansar Khan of MLive.com.

Ullmark has played exceptionally well as of late to help the Senators get back into playoff contention. Overall, the 32-year-old netminder has a 22-10-7 record, a 2.77 GAA and an .885 save percentage across 40 appearances this season. Since Jan. 31, however, he has an 8-2-2 record, a 2.34 GAA and an .897 save percentage. He'll play a big role in Tuesday's pivotal clash where the Senators will look to tie the Red Wings' win total.

Jeannot (undisclosed) is expected to play Tuesday versus the Maple Leafs, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI reports.

Jeannot was on the ice for Tuesday's optional skate, and it looks like he'll be able to play despite being limited to non-contact work in Monday's practice. The 28-year-old is slated to fill a fourth-line role as usual.

Larkin (leg) is expected to play against Ottawa on Tuesday, according to Ansar Khan of MLive.com.

Following a seven-game absence, Larkin will return to the top line and first power-play unit versus the Senators on Tuesday. He has compiled 28 goals, 55 points and 190 shots on net over 63 games this season.

Roy (upper body) is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Penguins, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.

Roy scored a goal but logged just 8:40 of ice time versus the Capitals on Sunday. He had been over the 10-minute mark in the seven prior contests, so it appears he came out of that game at less than 100 percent. The Avalanche are getting a boost Tuesday with Ross Colton (upper body) and Logan O'Connor (hip) both ready to play.

Thompson will start Tuesday's road clash against the Blues, per Mike Vogel of the Capitals' official site.

Thompson will look to stay hot against the Blues, who enter Tuesday's contest equally scorching. Over his past 11 appearances, Thompson hasn't allowed more than three goals in a game while posting a 6-3-2 record, a 2.09 GAA and a .924 save percentage. Overall, the 29-year-old netminder has a 24-19-6 record, a 2.38 GAA and a .914 save percentage across 49 outings this season. Despite the difficult matchup, his strong resume makes him a good option in most fantasy formats for Tuesday and beyond.

Hedman (illness) won't play against Minnesota on Tuesday, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Hedman will miss his third straight game, and it's unclear if he will be ready for Thursday's matchup against Seattle. He has registered one goal, 16 assists, 50 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and 19 hits across 33 appearances this season.

Glendening (lower body) is expected to play against Columbus on Tuesday, according to Kevin Kurz of The Athletic.

Glendening should return to a bottom-six role after sitting out the last two games. Since being claimed off waivers from New Jersey on March 6, he has recorded one goal, one assist, nine shots on net, three blocked shots and 12 hits in five games with the Flyers.

Barkey (upper body) is expected to play against Columbus on Tuesday, per Kevin Kurz of The Athletic.

After missing the last two games, Barkey appears poised to return to the lineup. He was alongside Trevor Zegras and Owen Tippett during Tuesday's morning skate. The 20-year-old Barkey has three goals, 11 points, 32 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and 34 hits in 32 NHL appearances this season.

Couturier (upper body) is expected to play in Tuesday's home clash with the Blue Jackets, per Kevin Kurz of The Athletic.

Couturier is set to make his return to the lineup following a two-game absence while the Flyers played on the road in California. He's had an inconsistent season when healthy, recording seven goals, 29 points, 101 shots on net, 71 hits and 36 blocked shots across 66 games. The 33-year-old captain will look to keep the Flyers' offense hot after scoring four goals in each of their past two games.
