Chatfield was an ugly minus-4 in the Canucks loss in Toronto on Saturday. Chatfield has struggled recently, so Olli Juolevi will replace him on Monday.





Martinook has been on the COVID-19 reserve list and has not played since January 18th. Martinook should reclaim a spot on the Hurricanes' fourth-line and comes in with one assist in three games this season.

Slavin has been on the COVID-19 reserve list and has not played since January 18th. His return to the Hurricanes' blueline will provide a huge boost, as he should replace Jake Bean and skat eon the top-pair with Dougie Hamilton.


Martinook was activated on Friday and was on the ice for an optional practice, suggesting that he could be available for Saturday's home game vs. the Stars. Martinook should replace Max McCormick and take back his spot on the fourth line for Saturday's contest.



Andersen allowed two goals on 32 shots in the Maple Leafs win over the Oilers last Friday. Jack Campbell started Sunday but was hurt in the win over the Flames, so Andersen could become an even bigger workhorse for the nest few weeks. After a rough start to the season, Andersen has gone 2-1-0 while stopping 76 of 81 shots (.938 SV%) in his last three starts. Tonight he faces a Calgary team that Andersen was 0-1-1 with a 2.48 GAA and .911 SV% against last year.

The Red Wings have been hit hard by COVID-19 and now Darren Helm is dealing with an undisclosed injury, so it looks like Smith and Taro Hirose, who was also recalled, could make their season debuts on Sunday. Smith had two goals and one assist in 21 games with the Red Wings a season ago.



Chatfield is expected to replace Olli Juolevi on the Canucks blueline on Wednesday. The 24-year-old defenseman, who had four assists in 48 AHL games a season ago, should help boost the Canucks penalty kill and is expected to skate on the second pair with Alex Edler.

The Hurricanes played in Nashville on Monday and had just one player n the COVID-19 protocol list and that was Jordan Staal. On Tuesday, their game with the Predators was cancelled due to four more players being added to that list, Slavin among them. The four players with confirmed positive tests must stay behind in Nashville and observe a 10-day isolation period in the team hotel.

Andersen stopped 27 of 28 shots in the Maple Leafs win over the Jets on Monday. After two tough starts to open the season, Andersen stood tall on Monday and earned his second win in three starts. Tonight he'll face an Oilers team that has struggled in their most recent outings, scoring just twice and going 0-for-10 on the power-play.
