Kuemper has not played since February 26th, but after the Capitals suffered a 3-0 loss to the Winnipeg Jets in their last outing, he will likely return to the crease on Wednesday. Despite his lack of activity between the pipes, Kuemper is riding a two-game winning streak, including saving 18 of 21 shots (.857 SV%) in his last game, a 6-3 victory over the Ottawa Senators. The Capitals enter action as +260 road underdogs against the Edmonton Oilers.

Jeannot was activated off Injured Reserve in February and returned to the lineup on February 13th but was limited to only 5:44 time-on-ice before re-aggravating his lower-body injury. He has played in only one game since January 6th. The 26-year-old bruising winger has filled his bottom-six role well this season with 12 points (6G/6A), 52 SOG, 61 PIMs, and a -11 plus/minus in 41 games played before the injury.

Anderson has been sidelined since February 22nd but will return to his usual spot on the Kings' top pair on Monday night. Arthur Kaliyev will sit as the Kings are opting to dress seven defensemen.

Rittich has taken a backseat to Cam Talbot recently, serving as his backup in six straight, but will return to the crease on Monday in the Kings' first game since a 4-1 loss to the Dallas Stars on Saturday. Rittich has played well when called upon this season, posting a 2.32 GAA and .914 SV% in 18 games (9-4-3) but allowed four goals on 31 shots (.871 SV%) in his last outing, a 4-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers. The Kings enter action as -148 home favourites against the New York Islanders.

Kuemper was not at the morning skate on Thursday due to an illness but could still be an option between the pipes in the evening against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Kuemper last played on February 26th and saved 18 of 21 shots (.857 SV%) in a 6-3 win over the Ottawa Senators.

Edmundson will join the Maple Leafs, likely as a bottom-pairing depth defenseman, as they attempt to bolster their blueline ahead of Friday's trade deadline. The 30-year-old Edmundson had six points (1G / 5A), 58 hits, and 49 blocks in 44 games with the Washington Capitals this season.
