Bishop led the Stars onto the ice for warmups.

Bishop allowed two goals on 39 shots in the Stars' loss to the Blues on Friday night. Bishop has won three of his lat four starts while stopping an impressive 118 of the 126 shots (.937 SV%) that he faced. Tonight he will face the Wild for the second time this season--he left the first game after allowing two goals on 10 shots in what ended up being a 6-3 win for Dallas.

Reimer will start Saturday in Tampa Bay.

Reimer stopped all 19 shots that he faced in the Hurricanes shutout win in Detroit last Sunday. Reimer has won two in a row while stopping 51 of the 54 (.944 SV%) shots the he's faced. Tonight he gets a Lightning team that is 4-2-0 while averaging a ridiculous 5.17 goals per game in their last six home games.

Dahlin is out indefinitely with a concussion.

Dahlin was elbowed in the head by Erik Cernak on Monday and was forced to leave the game and was immediately diagnosed with a concussion. As expected, the Sabres announced that he is out indefinitely prior to Wednesday's game, so don't expect him to play for at least the rest of this week.

Bishop will start Monday vs. the Golden Knights.

Bishop allowed three goals on 26 shots in the Stars win over the Jets last Thursday. Anton Khudobin started Saturday, so Bishop will go Monday vs. the Golden Knights. He catches a break with Malcolm Subban going for Vegas, increasing his chances for a victory. Bishop is 5-2-1 with a 1.80 GAA and .939 SV% on home-ice this season.

Thompson is expected to miss 3-to-5 weeks with an upper-body injury.

Thompson was hurt in his season debut on Sunday. He was called-up to replace Kyle Okposo (concussion) but suffered an injury of his own after playing just 6:59 TOI. He was hit awkwardly by Olli Maatta and suffered what appeared to be a shoulder injury. The Sabres have announced that he will miss at least three weeks.

Tage Thompson
Bishop will start Tuesday vs. the Canucks.

Bishop was pulled after allowing three goals on 15 shots in the Stars come-from-behind win in Edmonton on Saturday. Bishop seems to either play great and win or get pulled. Overall, he has gone 6-5-1 with a 2.29 GAA (4th in the NHL) and .925 SV% (t-6th) in 14 starts. Vancouver has lost three of their last four (1-2-1) on the road.

The Sabres have recalled Tage Thompson from Rochester (AHL).

Thompson is tied for the team lead with 12 points (6G / 6A) in 16 games with Rochester this season. Kyle Okposo left past night's game and is questionable to play on Sunday, so look for Thompson to make his season debut in Chicago. The 2016 first-round pick has 21 points (10G / 11A) in 106 career NHL games.

The Golden Knights have signed Peyton Krebs to a three-year, entry-level contract.

Krebs was selected with the No.17 overall pick in this summer's draft. He tore his Achilles in June and recently started skating with the Golden Knights and inked his entry-level contract on Saturday afternoon. The 18-year-old had 68 points (19G / 49A) in 64 games with the Kootenay Ice (WHL), who he'll likely end up with when he's 100 percent healthy.

Bishop will start Saturday in Edmonton.

Bishop stopped 24 of 25 shots in the Stars win in Calgary on Wednesday. Bishop has rattled off three straight wins while allowing just one goal in each game with a .969 SV%. As good as he has been lately, Bishop is 3-3-0 with a .918 SV% on the road and the Oilers are great on home-ice and have won three of their last four.

Ben Bishop
Reimer will start Saturday afternoon in Minnesota.

Reimer allowed four goals on 30 shots in the Hurricanes loss in Ottawa last Saturday. Reimer has lost four in a row (0-4-0) while posting an ugly 3.41 GAA and .873 SV%. He has struggled in a Hurricanes uniform and isn't a good option regardless of the matchup right now.

James Reimer
Tuch (upper-body) will be back in the Vegas lineup on Wednesday.

Tuch missed the last four games with an upper-body injury that he suffered in his second game of the season (Nov.2) but will suit up vs. the Blackhawks. Tuch scored a goal in his season debut and will play on the same line tonight (with Cody Eakin and Cody Glass).

Alex Tuch
Bishop will start Wednesday in Calgary.

Bishop stopped 36 of 37 shots in the Stars win over the Avalanche last Tuesday. With Anton Khudobin starting on Sunday, Bishop has had over one week of rest prior to tonight's game in Calgary. In his last six starts, Bishop has gone 4-1-0 with a 1.51 GAA and .955 SV%, while the Flames enter play at 6-1-2 while scoring 3.78 goals per game in nine games at the Scotiabank Saddledome.
