Ristolainen (upper-body) is expected to miss the remainder of the 2024-25 season.

Ristolainen has not suited up since March 11th due to an upper-body injury, was announced out week-to-week on Thursday, and will not likely miss the remainder of the season. It is a huge loss on the back end for the Flyers, as the 30-year-old had been coming around as of late with four points in his last nine games played. Ristolainen likely puts a bow on the 2024-25 regular season with four goals, 19 points and a +3 plus/minus in 63 games played.

Rasmus Ristolainen
Fedotov will start vs. Nashville on Monday.

The Flyers have outscored their opposition 13-8 during a two-game winning streak and will turn Fedotov between the pipes on Monday against the Nashville Predators. The 28-year-old Fedotov had a forgetful night in his most recent outing, allowing seven goals on 29 shots (.759 SV%) in a 7-4 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks. He has a 3.21 GAA and .877 SV% in 24 appearances this season (5-13-3). The Flyers enter Monday's contest as -119 home favorites against a Predators squad that has lost two straight (0-2-0) and will be without Jonathan Marchessault (lower body).

McAvoy (shoulder) is practicing on Monday in a regular practice jersey.

McAvoy has not played since suffering an injury at the 4Nations Face-Off, but was skating in a non-contact jersey since last week, and has upgraded to a full-contact practice on Monday. The 27-year-old had seven goals, 23 points, 98 SOG and 46 PIMs in 50 games to start the season. The Bruins have eight games remaining this season and it's unclear when McAvoy could return to the lineup.

Charlie McAvoy
Markstrom will start vs. Minnesota on Monday.

After saving 22 of 24 shots (.917 SV%) in a 5-2 win over the Minnesota Wild, Markstrom will return to the crease on Monday in a rematch against Minnesota. The 35-year-old has a 2.50 GAA and .900 SV% in 45 games this season (24-14-6). His win over Minnesota was the first time he allowed fewer than three goals in seven contests (2-4-1). New Jersey enters Monday's contest as -157 home favorites against a Minnesota team that has lost three of their last four games (1-3-0).

Hathaway (upper-body) will return to Philadelphia's lineup vs. Nashville on Monday.

Hathaway has not played since February 27th due to an upper-body injury but will draw back into the lineup on Monday against the Nashville Predators. The 33-year-old Hathaway is averaging 11:53 time-on-ice recording 18 points (8G / 10A), 48 penalty minutes, and 218 hits in 60 games this season.

Washington has signed David Gucciardi to a two-year, entry-level contract.
