Saros will get an immediate chance at redemption after a disappointing outing on Tuesday as he is set to make his league-leading 26th start of the season. Saros saw his personal six-game winning streak come to a crashing halt against the Canucks last time out, allowing five goals on just 24 shots. The uncharacteristic outing resulted in Saros' SV% dropping to .908 on the season to go along with his 14-11-0 record. He draws a decent matchup tonight on the road against the Flyers.

Lucchini had nine goals, 20 points, six PIMs and a -6 plus/minus in 24 games with Iowa (AHL) and has been recalled to Minnesota for the first time this season on emergency conditions. The 28-year-old left-winger last appeared in the NHL for his one and only season in 2022-23 and had a goal, 14 SOG, and a -2 plus/minus in 11 games played.

David Jiricek will draw into the lineup on Thursday in favour of Blankenburg, who will be a healthy scratch. Blankenburg has played six games this season and has zero points while averaging 17:53 time-on-ice.

Hinostroza was reassigned to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the AHL on Tuesday but was immediately recalled on Wednesday. He played three consecutive games for Pittsburgh last week, averaging over 13 minutes per night, but was held off the score sheet. He has four points (2G / 2A) in five games this season with Wilkes-Barre Scranton.

Saros has won six straight contests and will return to the crease on Tuesday when the Predators welcome the Vancouver Canucks. Saros has only allowed nine total goals during his six-game winning streak, boasting a tremendous .954 SV%. The Predators were defeated 5-2 by the Canucks earlier this season with Kevin Lankinen between the pipes, but they have won four straight games and are -122 home favourites on Tuesday.

With Jake Oettinger sidelined due to a lower-body injury, Murray has been recalled and will serve as the backup to Scott Wedgewood. Murray has a 2.86 GAA and .908 SV% in 13 games (8-4-1) with the Texas Stars of the AHL this season. A concrete timeline for Oettinger's return to action is not yet available but it is unlikely that Murray will see much action between the pipes in Dallas unless he is with the club for an extended period.

Evangelista will get the opportunity to play on Friday as Kiefer Sherwood (upper-body) is unavailable. Evangelista has four goals and ten assists in 28 games this season.

Hinostroza played three consecutive games for the Penguins, averaging over 13 minutes per night, but was held off the score sheet and has been placed on unconditional waivers. Assuming he clears, he will report to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the AHL, where he has four points (2G / 2A) in five games this season.

Evangelista is expected to watch the game from the press box as a healthy scratch, allowing Philip Tomasino to draw back into the lineup. Evangelista has only one point (0G / 1A) in his last seven games while playing mainly with Kiefer Sherwood and Tommy Novak.

Saros was tremendous in his last game, saving 36 of 37 shots (.973 SV%) in a 2-1 win over the Montreal Canadiens and will look for his fifth straight victory on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Flyers. Saros has been excellent during a four-game winning streak, allowing only six goals total on 133 shots (.955 SV%). The Predators are -135 home favourites against a surprising Flyers team that has won four straight but will turn to backup goalie Samuel Ersson.

Luke Schenn will re-enter the Predators lineup on Tuesday in favour of Tyson Barrie, who will be a healthy scratch for the fourth time in the last seven games. Schenn has zero points in nine games this season but continues to play his hard-nosed brand of hockey, tallying 30 hits and 11 blocks while averaging 14:29 time-on-ice.
