Andersen gave up three goals on 34 shots in the Maple Leafs’ overtime win in Montreal on Saturday. Andersen has won four of his first five starts this season despite posting a poor 3.76 GAA and .880 SV%—thank you high-scoring offence. Tonight he will face a high-powered Capitals team who he was 1-0-1 while allowing eight goals on 64 shots (.875 SV%) against last season.
Jost missed the last two games with a knee injury, but was on the ice for Monday’s practice and is expected to play tomorrow in Nashville. Jost has one goal and one assist in four games this season and three points (2G / 1A) in 10 career NHL contests.
Jost suffered a knee injury on Wednesday and will be held out the lineup tonight vs. the Ducks. Jost was not on the ice for the morning skate, so he’s listed as day-to-day for now. Matt Nieto will draw into the lineup to take Jost’s spot in the lineup.
Martinook was out of the lineup in Vegas on Tuesday, but will draw back in for Brendan Perlini tonight vs. the Red Wings. Martinook has one assist, two shots and three hits in two games this season.
Kase suffered a head injury in the Ducks’ loss to Calgary on Monday. The song winger has been moved to injured reserve so he will miss at least the next two games (@ COL - FRI / vs. BUF - SUN). Patrick Eaves took his spot in the lineup on Wednesday and will continue to do so going forward.
Jost recorded a goal in 13:54 TOI on Wednesday but is reportedly dealing with a knee injury in advance of Friday’s game vs. the Ducks. Jost has been elevated to the third line in recent games and comes into Friday with one goal, one assist and seven shots in four games.
With Paul Martin (ankle) sidelined, Ryan has been recalled and will make his NHL debut tonight vs. the Sabres. Ryan had 10 goals and 39 assists (49 points) in 65 games with San Jose (AHL) last season. The former seventh-round pick will make his debut on a pairing with Brent Burns.
Marrtinook was out of the lineup in Vegas on Tuesday, but could draw back into the lineup tonight vs. the Red Wings. So far this season, Martinook has one assist with two shots on goal, but isn’t a viable fantasy injury.
Kase left Tuesday’s game vs. Calgary and did not return after playing just 3:32 TOI. Kase missed Thursday’s morning skate and the Ducks announced pre-game that he is dealing with a head injury—he is day-to-day and questionable for Friday’s game in Colorado.
Andersen allowed three goals on 21 shots in the Maple Leafs’ overtime win over the Blackhawks on Monday. Andersen has started the season 3-0-0 despite posting a 3.28 GAA and .892 SV%. The Great Dane will see a lot of rubber this season, but should have a ton of goal support. He will look to record his fourth straight win tonight vs. the Devils.

Andersen surrendered five goals on 35 shots in the Maple Leafs’ 8-5 win over the Rangers on Saturday. It wasn’t a great statistical outing for Andersen, who has now posted a 3.50 GAA and .903 SV% in two starts, but he has received a whopping 15 goals in support so far. Toronto like to play an up-tempo, free-wheeling game so Andersen may be under siege a lot this season, but should walk away victorious more often than not.
Tokarski appeared in 27 games with San Diego (AHL) last season, going 17-8-1 with a 2.93 GAA and .898 SV%. The 28-year-old has had limited success in his brief NHL career, going 10-12-5 with a 2.84 GAA and .904 SV% in 34 career games between the Lightning, Canadiens and Ducks.

Andersen made 35 saves on 37 shot in the Maple Leafs’ 7-2 win in Winnipeg on opening night. Andersen kept the Maple Leafs in the game early, making a number of key saves on several penalty kills in the first period. It was a great start to the season for Andersen, who will make his second start vs. a Rangers team who lost their first game to Colorado.

Andersen was great in his first season in Toronto, winning 33 games with a 2.67 GAA and .918 SV%, all while playing behind a Maple Leafs team that gave up the third most shots in the NHL. They are a fast paced, high octane squad so expect him to be equally busy this season, but the offence will give a lot of goal support and opportunities for wins. The opening night matchup with the Jets is a rough one—Winnipeg was seventh in the NHL in scoring last year (3.00 GF/PG).
Despite Gostisbehere saying that he is ready to play on Wednesday, he skated on the Flyers’ fourth-pairing during Tuesday’s practice, which suggests that he may sit vs. the Sharks. Monitor his status during the Flyers’ morning skate tomorrow.
Fast, who underwent offseason hip surgery could be cleared for contact in the next couple of weeks, but is not expected to return to the Rangers lineup until late-October. With Fast out, one of the Rangers’ first-round picks, Lias Andersson and/or Filip Chytil, are expected to make the opening night roster.
