Markstrom's strong performance on Tuesday, saving 30 of 33 shots (.909 SV%), helped the Flames snap a two-game losing streak and will return to the crease on Thursday. Since returning from a fractured finger injury last month, Markstrom has quietly drawn together a solid stretch of play, posting a stellar .931 SV% in eight games (5-3-0). The Flames are -122 road favourites on Thursday against the Arizona Coyotes, who snapped a three-game losing streak in their last contest with a 4-3 overtime victory over the Boston Bruins.

Hughes and the Devils avoided a much worse prognosis on Tuesday morning, but the star forward will still be out of the lineup on a week-to-week basis as he recovers from an upper-body injury. Hughes has already missed six games this season with a separate injury and provides another blow to an injury-depleted Devils club that is already without Timo Meier, Jonas Siegenthaler, Dougie Hamilton, and Ondrej Palat. Dawson Mercer has moved into the top six and onto the top powerplay unit and should be the main benefactor of offensive deployment during Hughes' absence.

Markstrom did not play in the back end of a back-to-back on Sunday, a disappointing 4-3 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks, but will return to the crease on Tuesday versus the Ottawa Senators. Markstrom has quietly amassed several strong performances since returning from a fractured finger injury last month, boasting a tremendous .935 SV% in seven games (4-3-0). The Flames, losers of two straight, are -123 home favourites against a Senators club that has lost three straight, being outscored 13-5.

Siegenthaler has been placed on IR, prompting the Devils to recall Cal Foote from the Utica Comets of the AHL. Siegenthaler played only 9:34 time-on-ice before exiting the last game and joins a concerningly large list of noteworthy Devils players that are injured, including Jack Hughes, Timo Meier, Ondrej Palat, and fellow defenseman Dougie Hamilton.

Glass has been in and out of the lineup over the last month for the Predators but will draw back in on Tuesday against the Anaheim Ducks. He has been limited to only one point (1G / 0A) in his last seven games.

Hughes left for the locker room with only a couple of minutes remaining in the game, and it's unclear at this time whether or not the injury would have prevented him from returning to the game. His status for Saturday's game his brother Quinn and the Canucks is currently unknown.

Noesen will join Martin Necas (upper-body) on the sidelines for this one as the Hurricanes will be forced to dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen. Noesen has ten goals and 13 assists in 38 games this season.

Zack MacEwen (illness) and Jacob Bernard-Docker (healthy scratch) are both expected to be out of the lineup on Thursday, allowing Crookshank and Jiri Smejkal to draw back into the lineup. Crookshank has spent most of the season with the Belleville Senators of the AHL, scoring 21 points (10G / 11A) in 24 games.
