Gustavsson will start Monday's home game against the Canadiens, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

Gustavsson got the night off Saturday against Edmonton, but he'll return to the crease two days later. Across his last five starts, he's gone 4-0-1 with a 2.95 GAA and .901 save percentage, with two of those victories coming in overtime. The Canadiens are scoring 3.44 goals per game this year, which ranks fourth in the NHL.

Sturm (illness) will suit up against the Canadiens on Monday, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

Sturm will be back in the lineup after missing just one game due to illness. The veteran forward has been struggling offensively, going 13 games without a goal while generating a mere two helpers. Tyler Pitlick figures to be the odd man out with Sturm returning to a bottom-six role.

Roy (lower body) said that he's good to go for Monday's game against the Islanders, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Roy missed the last three games due to his lower-body injury and landed on injured reserve Saturday, but he'll be available for the first half of a back-to-back set Monday. The 30-year-old has appeared in 13 games since the start of the calendar year, recording three assists, 25 hits, 21 blocked shots, six PIM and a minus-3 rating while averaging 21:18 of ice time.

Kolosov was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley on Monday.

Kolosov was sent to the minors Sunday, but he'll rejoin the NHL club a day later, which could signal that Samuel Ersson (lower body) will be unavailable for a second consecutive game Tuesday at home against Washington. Kolosov has made four appearances for the Flyers this year, going 0-2-0 with eight goals allowed on 47 shots (.830 save percentage).

Silovs was the first goalie to leave the ice Monday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home versus the Senators.

Silovs will take the first game of the Penguins' back-to-back to continue an every-other-game trend in the crease. In his last nine appearances, the backstop has suffered just one regulation defeat, going 6-1-2 with a 2.50 GAA and .902 save percentage. With the upcoming Olympic break, Stuart Skinner may take the final two games before the break, especially with Silovs headed to Milan as part of the Latvian squad.

Monahan (illness) participated in Monday's practice, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Monahan should be available for Tuesday's matchup against New Jersey after leaving Saturday's 5-3 win over St. Louis. He has earned nine goals, 26 points, 80 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and 27 hits through 50 appearances this campaign.

Drouin (illness) was back at practice ahead of Monday's matchup against Washington, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

Drouin looks set to return to the lineup after missing out versus the Predators on Saturday due to an illness. The 30-year-old forward is currently mired in a 31-game goal drought, and he hasn't recorded a point over his last nine outings. Drouin's offensive struggles will likely see him miss the 40-point threshold for the second straight year.

Lundell (upper body) won't be in the lineup against Buffalo on Monday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Lundell remains day-to-day and will miss his third straight game. He participated in Monday's morning skate in a non-contact jersey, making it unclear if he will be ready for Wednesday's home matchup against Boston. Lundell has contributed 15 goals, 36 points, 120 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and 63 hits across 52 appearances this season.

Marchand (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Sabres, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Marchand sustained an undisclosed injury during Thursday's game against the Blues, and he'll be forced to miss a second consecutive matchup Monday. While a timetable for his return isn't yet clear, head coach Paul Maurice said after Monday's morning skate that there's a chance Marchand returns to action at some point this week. The 37-year-old's final two chances to suit up before the Olympic break will be Wednesday against Boston and Thursday against Tampa Bay.

Fehervary (personal) was on the ice ahead of Monday's game versus the Islanders, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Fehervary should be back in the lineup to face New York after missing out versus Carolina on Saturday. With the blueliner back in action, Declan Chisholm will likely be dropped from the lineup, though Dylan McIlrath could also be in danger of being a healthy scratch.
