Korpisalo will start against the Penguins on Tuesday.

The Senators, amid a seven-game losing skid, will turn to Korpisalo for the third straight time on Tuesday. Korpisalo allowed two goals on 21 shots (.905 SV%) in his last outing, a disappointing 2-1 loss to the San Jose Sharks. The Senators enter action as slight -100 home underdogs against a Pittsburgh Penguins club that has been miserable lately, being outscored 15-1 in their last three games (0-3-0).

Swayman will start against the Blues on Monday.

The Bruins will continue their typical goalie rotation on Monday as Swayman will be back between the pipes after Linus Ullmark got the nod in Saturday's win over the Penguins. Swayman picked up yet another victory his last time out, allowing just a single goal on 29 shots as the Bruins cruised to a 4-1 defeat of the Maple Leafs. The 25-year-old netminder hasn't lost a game in regulation since February 15th. He's got a great chance of staying in the win column on Monday with the Bruins being -240 favourites over the Blues.

Lindholm has not played since February 19th, nine games with a lower-body injury, but could return to the lineup on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The 30-year-old defenseman has 19 points (1G / 18A), 71 shots, and 73 blocks in 56 games.

The Bruins have signed Parker Wotherspoon to a one-year deal worth $800K.

Wotherspoon is in his first year with the Bruins and has spent most of the season in the NHL. He has picked up six assists, 67 hits and 54 blocked shots in 32 games with the Bruins. Wotherspoon has become a key penalty killer for Boston (2:17 SH TOI/gm) and will likely continue to operate as their No.6/No.7 defenseman this season and next.

Swayman will start against the Maple Leafs on Thursday.
