Stalock was yanked after giving up four goals on 12 shots in the Wild's 6-5 loss in San Jose on November 7th. Devan Dubnyk has started the last four games so they'll get Stalock in there in Buffalo. He has gone 2-3-0 with a 3.57 GAA and .881 SV% on the road this season which makes him a risky option, even against a Buffalo team that has lost seven of their last eight (1-5-2).
Gibson stopped 37 of the 38 shots that he faced in the Ducks win in St. Louis on Saturday. The win snapped an ugly three-game losing streak for Gibson, who is now 2-5-0 with a 2.90 GAA and .913 SV% in seven road starts. The Capitals come into Monday's game having won four of their last six (4-1-1) in Washington while scoring 4.14 goals per game.
Terry has been held off of the scoresheet in six straight games and has just four points (2G / 2A) in 21 games this season. This will be the first time in 2019-20 that Terry has served as a healthy scratch. Ondrej Kase will replace him in the lineup.

Vaakanainen appeared in the last three games with the Bruins before being sent to the AHL in a "paper move." He has not recorded a point but has averaged 17:25 TOI/gm and will likely be in the lineup in New Jersey on Tuesday.
Gibson allowed six goals on 31 shots in the Ducks loss to the Oilers on Sunday. Gibson has lost six of his last eight starts while posting a 3.54 GAA and .897 SV%. Gibson won his first start against the Sharks while stopping 35 of 36 shots (.972 SV%).
With Torey Krug out, Vaakanainen will play in his third career NHL game on Tuesday. The former first-round pick (No.18 overall in 2017) didn't register a point in two NHL games last year and had two assists in 15 AHL games before being called-up on Monday.
McGinn was not on the ice for the Hurricanes' morning skate and will be a game-time decision vs. the Senators. McGinn doesn't bring a lot of offence to the table, collecting just four points (1G / 3A) in 17 games this season, so he shouldn't be considered for your rosters anyways.
Tore Krug was hurt late in Sunday's game vs. the Flyers, so Vaakanainen's call-up suggests that Krug will miss Tuesday's game and the 20-year-old defenseman will make his season debut. Vaakanainen was a first-round pick (No.18 overall) in 2017 and has two assists in 15 games with Providence this season.
Stalock allowed two goals on 31 shots in the Wild's win in Anaheim on Tuesday. Stalock has outplayed Devan Dubnyk early-on but he's been pretty average, going 3-3-0 with a 2.42 GAA and .917 SV%. Even though the Sharks haven't played their best though 16 games, it's still not a great spot for Stalock.
Fabbri was originally selected in the first-round (No.21 overall) back in 2015 but injuries have derailed a once promising career. After posting 18 goals and 37 points in his rookie year, Fabbri has amassed just 36 points (14G / 22A) in 92 games over the last three seasons. He has had a hard time finding playing time with the Blues but that will not be an issue in Detroit. As long as he can stay healthy, Fabrri should be able to breathe new life into his career.
Gibson stopped 39 of 40 shots in the Ducks win over the Canucks last Friday. Gibson was able to neutralize one of the best offences in hockey right now and won for the second game in a row. He has been drastically better in Anaheim this season, going 5-1-0 with a 1.83 GAA and .948 SV%, so don't hesitate to start him vs. a Wild team that has scored the third-fewest goals (2.36 GF/gm) this season.

Dumoulin missed Sunday's practice to be with his wife as they are expecting the birth of their first baby, but he is expected to play on Monday. Dumoulin has one goal, three assists and a plus-11 rating in 10 games this season.
