Talbot was a late scratch for the Senators' game Monday night and is now expected to miss three weeks due to a "mid-body" injury. The 35-year-old veteran netminder has struggled at times in his first season in Ottawa, as he has a 15-14-1 record, 2.85 GAA and .905 SV%.

Mitchell has missed the Blackhawks' previous three games due to a hamstring injury but will draw back into Chicago's lineup Wednesday. The 24-year-old has a goal, four assists, 20 SOG, and a -11 plus/minus through 24 games played prior to the injury.

Talbot stopped 19 of 21 shots (.905 SV%) for his third-straight victory as he beat Columbus in his previous start. The 35-year-old has had an up-and-down first season in the Nation's Capital, with his 15-14-1 record, 2.85 GAA and .905 SV%. He will face the Chicago Blackhawks, who unloaded their roster at the trade deadline, and have lost four-straight games in the meantime.

Appleton has missed the Jets' last two games with an upper-body injury and will return to the Winnipeg lineup Monday as they take on San Jose. The 27-year-old has two goals, seven assists, 32 SOG, six PIMs and a -2 plus/minus through 22 games played before the injury.

Rasmussen left the Red Wings' game vs. Tampa Bay on February 25th after just 2:13 TOI due to a knee injury and will likely miss the remainder of the 2022-23 season.

Gibson stopped 51 of 53 shots (.962 SV%) for his second-straight 40+ save victory as he beat Carolina in his previous start.
