Dobes will be in goal Tuesday in Philadelphia, according to Patrick Friolet of RDS.

Dobes allowed at least three goals in three of his last four appearances, but he came out with a 3-1-0 record during that time. His seven-game winning streak was snapped Saturday, though, as he allowed five goals on 33 shots in a 5-2 home loss to Columbus. As far as Tuesday's game, the Flyers are on the second half of a back-to-back and will likely rest some of their regulars, while the Canadiens are playing for home ice in their first-round series against the Lightning.

Danault will be rested for Tuesday's clash with the Flyers, Patrick Friolet of RDS reports.

Danualt has been struggling offensively since the Olympic break, garnering just three points in his last 24 contests. Overall, it's been a disappointing campaign for the veteran forward, as he has produced a meager 17 points in 75 appearances for the Kings and Habs -- well off the 40-plus points he tallied in each of the prior four years.

Wolf will patrol the home crease against Colorado on Tuesday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

Wolf is coming off a 28-save performance in Sunday's 4-1 win over Utah. He has a 23-28-3 record this campaign with two shutouts, a 3.03 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 56 appearances. Colorado ranks first in the league with 3.66 goals per game this season.

Head coach Travis Green said Tuesday that Jensen (knee) is a long shot to play again this year, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

Jensen underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus in mid-March, a procedure that was expected to carry a six-week recovery timetable. While the Senators have clinched a playoff berth, Jensen isn't expected to be healthy in time to contribute during postseason play. The 35-year-old made 61 regular-season appearances this year and recorded four goals, 13 assists, 65 blocked shots, 38 hits and 22 PIM while averaging 17:01 of ice time.

Anderson is slated to sit out versus Philadelphia on Tuesday, per Patrick Friolet of RDS.

With just two goals in his last 21 outings, Anderson will miss the 15-goal threshold for the second time in the last six years. The 31-year-old winger hasn't been able to establish a role with the man advantage, which will continue to limit his fantasy upside in the postseason and beyond.

Matheson is expected to get the night off versus the Flyers on Tuesday, Patrick Friolet of RDS reports.

Matheson has appeared in 78 games for the Habs this season, notching seven goals and 30 helpers along the way. With the veteran blueliner resting up ahead of the postseason, Adam Engstrom is expected to slide into a third-pairing role in Philadelphia.

Tkachuk (rest) said Tuesday that he's good to go for the postseason, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

Tkachuk sat out Sunday's game in New Jersey after managing just 10:25 of ice time in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Islanders. The 26-year-old winger skated on the second line alongside Dylan Cozens and Ridly Greig during Tuesday's practice, and Tkachuk also worked with the No. 1 power-play unit. The Senators' first-round matchup has yet to be determined, but they will play either the Sabres or Hurricanes to kick off the postseason.

Stevenson will defend the road net against Columbus on Tuesday, according to Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.

Stevenson has won two of his three NHL starts this season while allowing only seven goals on 73 shots. Columbus ranks 17th in the league this campaign with 3.02 goals per game.

Dubois will be sidelined versus Columbus on Tuesday due to an upper-body injury, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

Dubois will see his season end having played in just 29 regular-season contests in which he generated five goals and 14 assists, including six power-play points. It's the lowest goal total of the 27-year-old center's NHL career, though injuries were certainly a significant factor. He'll be a risky fantasy play heading into 2026-27, but he could put up 20-30 goals when fully fit.

Kerins was recalled from AHL Calgary on Tuesday.

Kerins made a pair of appearances for the NHL club in mid-November, and he'll rejoin the Flames ahead of their penultimate regular-season game. Across 55 AHL appearances this year, Kerins has recorded 22 goals, 32 assists and 16 PIM.
