Stamkos missed the last three games with a lower-body injury but will play Saturday in Washington. Stamkos, who has 20 points (7G / 13A) in 19 games this season, will skate on a line with Alex Killorn and Anthony Cirelli in his return to the lineup.

Saros turned aside 24 of 26 shots in the Predators 4-2 win in St. Louis on Saturday. With the Blues in town tonight on the second half of a home-and-home, the Predators will stick with what worked on the weekend. It is rare for Saros to start two in a row, but Pekka Rinne has struggled as of late. The 24-year-old netminder is still looking for his first win on home-ice, having gone 0-3-0 with a. 2.97 GAA and .887 SV% at Bridgestone Arena so far.

Head coach Jon Cooper called Stamkos "day-to-dayish" and said he hopes he'll play by the end of the week. With Stamkos out, the Lightning are leaning heavily on the Anthony Cirelli line for secondary scoring. After tonight, Tampa Bay has three more games this week--Wednesday vs. St. Louis, Friday in Washington and Saturday vs. Carolina.
Saros gave up three goals on 10 shots in relief of Pekka Rinne in the Predators 7-2 loss to Chicago on Saturday. It was an ugly outing for the entire team and dropped Saros' November SV% to .895. He really hasn't played well this season, so he's not the great spot-start option he's been in recent years. Winnipeg is also on a four-game road winning streak and have won six of their last seven away from home while averaging 3.71 goals per game.
Stamkos missed the morning skate but head coach Jon Cooper expects him to play on Tuesday. Cory Conacher was brought up from the AHL in case Stamkos can't play. Stamkos is currently on a five-game point streak, posting two goals and six assists (eight points) during that stretch.

Haula returned to the Hurricanes lineup for two games but did not look 100 percent and head coach Rod Brind'Amour expects him to be out for an extended period of time. Haula will be replaced by Eetu Luostarinen moving forward.
Jost is day-to-day with an upper-body injury so Jayson Megna will replace him in the lineup in Vancouver. After tonight, the Avalanche are off until Tuesday, so monitor Jost's status heading into that contest in Calgary.
Haula missed the last four games but will draw back into the lineup in Buffalo. Lucas Wallmark and the third line played well while Haula was out, so he will return on the fourth line with Brian Gibbons and Brock McGinn. Haula has eight goals and three assists (11 points) in 14 games this season.
Saros allowed four goals on 23 shots after replacing Pekka Rinne in the Predators loss in Colorado on Thursday. In six appearances this season, Saros has gone 1-4-0 with 3.98 GAA and .876 SV%, not the type of numbers we're used to seeing from the 24-year-old netminder. He was 1-2-0 with a 4.10 GAA and .874 SV% in three starts against the Sharks last year.
