Gaudreau played on Saturday because the Predators were missing four players due to food poisoning, but with those players set to return this week, Gaudreau has been sent back to Milwaukee. He had three blocked shots in 9:01 TOI on Saturday.
Fleury allowed two goals on 34 shots in the Penguins’ win over the Sharks on Thursday. It was a nice bounce-back game for Fleury, who had lost each of his last two starts. He sits at 3-1-1 with a 2.76 GAA and .920 SV% in the early-going and tonight he will make his sixth consecutive start. Fleury will face a Nashville team that is dealing with food poisoning and who played last night.
Cramarossa, 23, was a third round pick (65th overall) in 2011 and has yet to make his NHL debut. Last year he had 17 points (11G / 6A) in 61 AHL games and has none in two games with San Diego this season, so he likely won’t have a significant NHL impact.

Spurgeon was hurt in Thursday’s game vs. the Maple Leafs and then missed yesterday’s practice, which puts his status for tonight’s game in jeopardy. If Spurgeon can’t play, look for Mathew Dumba to get back into the lineup.

Hartman will miss a second straight game with a lower-body injury that he suffered last Friday, but he was on the ice this morning and is targeting a return to the lineup on Friday.
Marc-Andre Fleury started last night, so Mike Condon could make his Penguins’ debut tonight vs. his former team back in Montreal. It would make sense, but head coach Mike Sullivan wouldn’t commit to a stater last night and without a morning skate, there won’t be any confirmation until around 5:30 pm ET.

Fleury was outstanding in the Penguins’ season opener, stopping 39 of 41 shots in a shootout win over the Capitals.

Fleury was 12-9-2 with a 2.49 GAA and .919 SV% vs. the Western Conference last year.
Hartman cracked the Blackhawks’ opening night roster, but only lasted four periods before getting hurt in Friday’s loss to the Predators. Look for Dennis Rasmussen to be in the lineup on Saturday.

Fleury had a strong 2015-16 season, winning 35 of his 58 games with a 2.29 GAA and .921 SV%. However, it was Matt Murray who led the Penguins to the Stanley Cup and will challenge Fleury for starts once he is healthy. Fleury has been a staple of consistency over his career, having won at least 30 games in the last seven consecutive full 82-game seasons. He might not start as many games as he is used to, but he will win more often than not.
