Zucker and Matthew Dumba will both be held out of the Coyotes' lineup in anticipation of a deal before Friday's trade deadline. Zucker has 24 points (9G / 16A), 104 shots, and 74 hits in 51 games this season.

Georgiev had the night off on Monday and has served as the backup in three of the last six, but will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Detroit Red Wings. The 28-year-old Georgiev was unsuccessful in his last outing, allowing four goals on 34 shots (.882 SV%) in a 5-1 loss to the Nashville Predators and has allowed four goals in two of his last three (1-2-0). The Avalanche were defeated 2-1 in overtime by the Red Wings two weeks ago but enter action as -193 home favourites on Wednesday night.

The Sabres blueline will be a treat for years to come after acquiring Byram on Wednesday, adding to an already talented core of Rasmus Dahlin and Owen Power. Byram was having a down year offensively with the Avalanche, with 20 points (8G / 12A) in 55 games this season.

Lyon has lost two straight but will return to the crease on Wednesday for the Red Wings. The 31-year-old Lyon has allowed four goals in two straight (0-2-0), but was sensational against the Colorado Avalanche on February 22nd, saving 30 of 31 shots (.968 SV%) in a 2-1 overtime victory. That said, the Red Wings enter action as +172 underdogs on the road in Colorado.

Byram has 20 points (8G / 12A) in 55 games this season but has been limited to only one assist in his last seven games. Recently, he has played on the third defensive pairing alongside Jack Johnson.

The 28-year-old Georgiev was unsuccessful in his last outing, allowing four goals on 34 shots (.882 SV%) in a 5-1 loss to the Nashville Predators and has allowed four goals in two of his last three (1-2-0). The Avalanche were defeated 2-1 in overtime by the Red Wings two weeks ago but enter action as -193 home favourites on Wednesday night.

The Sabres will turn to Luukkonen between the pipes on Wednesday for a season-high ninth straight start. Luukkonen last played on Sunday, allowing three goals on 33 shots (.909 SV%) in a 5-2 losing effort against the Winnipeg Jets. The Sabres enter action as +153 road underdogs against a Toronto Maple Leafs squad they handily defeated 9-3 in December.

Arizona will protect their trade asset in Jason Zucker by healthy scratching him for Tuesday's matchup for trade-related purposes. With Friday's Trade Deadline looming, Zucker's first and only season in Arizona may be coming to an end as he likely closes it out with nine goals, 25 points, 104 SOG, 58 PIMs and a -5 plus/minus through 51 games played.

Timmins has missed the last 15 games but should return to the Maple Leafs roster imminently after making a full recovery from mono. Timmins last played on January 24th and has six points (1G / 5A) in 16 games this season.

Colorado has begun to show more trust in Justus Annunen, starting two of the last four games, but will return to their workhorse Georgiev on Saturday. Georgiev was excellent in his last outing, saving 33 of 34 shots (.971 SV%) in a statement 5-1 victory over their division rivals, the Dallas Stars. Georgiev and the Avalanche will face off against a Nashville Predators club that has outscored their opposition by a whopping 32-12 margin during a seven-game winning streak.

Lyon will get the chance to redeem himself after a poor showing in his last outing. On Thursday, Lyon allowed four goals on 26 shots (.846 SV%) in a 5-3 loss to the New York Islanders, snapping his four-game winning streak where he allowed only eight total goals. He will face off against the Florida Panthers, the team he made a name for himself with last season, and saved 32 of 34 shots (.941 SV%) against in a 3-2 victory on January 17th.

Norris collided with the net in the second period and exited Tuesday's contest with an upper-body injury after playing only 6:03 time-on-ice. Norris, who missed most of the previous two seasons with a shoulder injury, received imagining and has been ruled out for the foreseeable future. Zack MacEwen was recalled from Belleville (AHL) in a corresponding move.

Luukkonen will continue his reign over the Sabres' crease on Thursday, starting for the seventh straight time. He has allowed fewer than three goals in five of his last seven games while posting a dazzling .932 SV%. The Sabres are +135 road underdogs on Thursday against a Tampa Bay Lightning club that has struggled to keep the puck out of their net lately, allowing four or more goals in three of their last six games (2-4-0).
