Jarvis (undisclosed) will play Saturday versus Utah, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

Jarvis is set to skate alongside Sebastian Aho (undisclosed) and Andrei Svechnikov (undisclosed) on the top line Saturday. All three of those forwards missed Thursday's game against Chicago, likely for roster-management reasons. Carolina is focused on resting veterans ahead of the playoffs.

Marino (upper body) is day-to-day and won't play against Carolina on Saturday.

Marino will miss at least one game, and Dmitri Simashev will suit up against the Hurricanes on Saturday. Marino has supplied four goals, 35 points, 53 shots on net and 67 blocked shots across 78 appearances this season.

Aho (undisclosed) will draw back into the lineup for Saturday's game against Utah, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

After presumably being rested for Thursday's 7-2 win over Chicago, Aho will return to a top-line role against the Blues on Saturday. Carolina has been moving plenty of veteran players in and out of the lineup after clinching the Metropolitan Division.

Vejmelka will patrol the home crease against Carolina on Saturday.

Vejmelka has stopped 123 of the 137 shots he has faced during a five-game winning streak. He has a 37-19-3 record this season with a 2.71 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 61 appearances.

Vladar is expected to start on the road against Winnipeg on Saturday.

Vladar has a 27-14-7 record, 2.47 GAA and .904 save percentage in 50 appearances in 2025-26. He saw his three-game winning streak come to an end when he allowed four goals on eight shots in 24:56 of ice time en route to a 6-3 loss to Detroit on Thursday. The Jets rank 24th in goals per game with 2.85 this season.

Annunen is slated to start at home against Minnesota on Saturday, per Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site.

Annunen earned a 43-save shutout victory over Anaheim on Tuesday. He's 9-11-2 with a 2.78 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 26 appearances this season. The Wild rank 11th in goals per game with 3.30 this season, but they're scratching top-six forwards Joel Eriksson Ek (rest) and Mats Zuccarello (rest) to keep them fresh for the playoffs.

Gibson (neck) will protect the home net against New Jersey on Saturday, according to Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.

Gibson will return to the crease after leaving Thursday's 6-3 win over Philadelphia. He has earned a 29-20-4 record this season with a 2.64 GAA and a .904 save percentage across 55 appearances. Since the start of March, the Devils rank fourth in the league with 3.63 goals per game.

Allen is expected to start on the road against Detroit on Saturday, per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.

Allen will attempt to bounce back after allowing four goals on 29 shots in a 5-2 loss to Pittsburgh on Thursday. He's 16-17-2 with a 2.74 GAA and a .903 save percentage in 36 outings with New Jersey this season. Detroit ranks 20th in goals per game with 2.94 this season.

Soderblom is set to start at home against St. Louis on Saturday, per Tracey Myers of NHL.com.

Soderblom has an 8-12-3 record, 3.74 GAA and .882 save percentage in 25 outings in 2025-26. He stopped 25 of 27 shots to earn a 4-2 victory over Seattle in his last start last Saturday. St. Louis ranks 29th in goals per game with 2.65 this season.

Gravel was called up by Nashville on Saturday.
