After a 3-0-0 start to the season, the Bruins have lost four straight (0-4-0) and hope to return to the win column on Tuesday with Swayman tending the twine against the Florida Panthers. Swayman has maintained a serviceable 2-2-0 record and been reliable between the pipes, posting a 2.76 GAA and .917 SV%. The 26-year-old netminder is coming off a 34-save performance (.919 SV%) in a 4-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche. The Bruins enter Tuesday's contest as +134 home underdogs against a Panthers team also amid a four-game losing skid (0-4-0).

Perry underwent knee surgery in September and has been sidelined for nearly six weeks. His original recovery timeline was 6-to-8 weeks, and it appears he’s trending toward the shorter end. He’s been skating with the team over the past week and was a full participant in Monday’s practice. While it’s unclear if he’ll make his season debut on Tuesday, it looks like his return is right around the corner.

Kuemper suffered a lower-body injury last Monday and has missed the last two games. However, he returned to full practice on Monday and is expected to join the team as they head to St. Louis. While he may not be available for Tuesday’s game, it’s an encouraging sign that he could return to the crease at some point during the trip.

Kopitar suffered a foot injury last Monday and was initially listed as week-to-week. However, he's already back on the ice and will join the team as they head to St. Louis. While he’s unlikely to play on Tuesday, this is a positive development that suggests his absence may be shorter than originally expected.

The Hurricanes (5-0-0) will look to continue as the only undefeated team in the 2025-26 season, turning to Andersen between the pipes on Monday against the Vegas Golden Knights (4-0-2), who have yet to lose in regulation.

Lindgren exited Saturday's 4-3 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs in the third period after playing 17:17 time-on-ice. The 27-year-old defenseman is averaging 19:24 time-on-ice, recording one point (0G / 1A) and 14 blocks in five games this season.

The Kraken will hand Daccord the reigns between the pipes for the fifth time this season when they travel to Philadelphia on Monday. Daccord is yet to be tagged with a regulation loss, posting a 3-0-1 record and a .912 SV% across his first four starts. The 29-year-old netminder most recently guided the Kraken to a 4-3 overtime victory over the Maple Leafs on Saturday, stopping 26 of the 29 shots he faced. Daccord and the Kraken enter action on Monday as slight underdogs at +120 on the money line.

Soucy has missed the previous four games for the Rangers due to an upper-body injury but appears set to return to the lineup on Monday. The 31-year-old defenseman has one goal in three games this season. Urho Vaakanainen will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Soucy's return.

The Rangers have had an up-and-down start to the 2025-26 season, shut out in three of seven games (3-3-1), but have received near-perfection from goaltender Igor Shesterkin. After an uncharacteristically poor 2024-25 season by his standards, the 29-year-old Shesterkin has rebounded early in 2025-26, showcasing an outstanding 1.00 GAA and .962 SV% in five games (2-2-1). As they enter Monday's contest, the Rangers are -136 home favorites against a Minnesota Wild team that has been outscored 12-4 during a three-game losing skid (0-2-1).
