DeAngelo, 21, was acquired from Tampa Bay this summer and has had a great start to the year with Tucson, posting seven points (1G / 6A) in eight games. The former first round pick (19th overall in 2014) has never appeared in an NHL game, but could make his NHL debut this week.
Pelech, 22, has registered two assists in nine career NHL games (all in 2015-16) and this marks his first call-up of 2016-17. The 2012 third round pick (65th overall) has been recalled because Travis Hamonic is expected to miss one month with a broken arm. Pelech, who has four points (1G / 3A) in 10 games with Bridgeport this season, is expected to make his season debut on Monday.
Schneider allowed four goals on 31 shots in the Devils’ loss in Florida on Thursday. The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for Schneider, who has won four of his first eight starts while posting a 2.11 GAA and .933 SV%. Tonight he will take on the Lightning for the third time already—he has gone 1-1-0 with a 2.03 GAA and .940 SV% in the first two meetings.
Drouin left Tuesday’s game with a head injury after being hit by Islanders’ defenseman Calvin de Haan. Drouin missed the morning skate and is still being evaluated by doctors. Drouin is day-to-day and will be replaced by J.T. Brown tonight.
Schneider stopped 32 of 33 shots in the Devils’ win over the Lightning last Saturday. The Devils have had the last four days off, so Schneider will start his eighth game tonight in Florida. He finished October with a 1.86 GAA and .941 SV%, which both rank in the top 10 in the NHL. Schneider comes in on a three game winning streak and makes for a solid start tonight.
Varlamov surrendered five goals on 36 shots in Colorado’s loss to the Predators on Tuesday. Varlamov has lost his last three starts while posting a 3.71 GAA and .884 SV% and things don’t get any easier tonight in Chicago. The Blackhawks are 6-3-1 and rank third in the NHL in scoring with 3.50 goals per game. There are better options out there tonight.
Drouin got crunched by Islanders’ defenseman Calvin de Haan and was forced to leave the game and did not return. The hit was to Drouin’s head, so there is some immediate concussion concern, but the Lightning have not released any information on his condition.
Soshnikov, 23, has picked up three points (1G / 2A) in six games with the Toronto Marlies this season. There’s no word whether or not Soshnikov will make his NHL season debut on Tuesday. The Russian winger has five points (2G / 3A) in 11 games with the Maple Leafs last season.
Varlamov allowed one goal on 21 shots in Colorado’s 1-0 loss to the Jets last Friday. Varlamov was inconsistent in October, finishing the month at 2-3-0 with a 2.82 GAA and .909 SV%. On Tuesday he will take on a Nashville team that is off to a sluggish start to 2016-17. The Predators are 2-5-1 and surprisingly rank 24th in the NHL in scoring (2.38 G/PG).
Varlamov allowed five goals on 38 shots in Colorado’s loss in Florida last Saturday. The Avalanche have had six days off, so Varlamov should be well rested for tonight’s game vs. the Jets. Varlamov has won two of his first four starts while posting a 3.25 GAA, .902 SV% and one shutout.
Schneider allowed three goals on 31 shots in the Devils’ win over the Coyotes on Tuesday. Keith Kinkaid got the nod last night, so Schneider will go tonight vs. the Lightning. Schneider comes into Saturday having won three of his last four while posting a 1.75 GAA and .942 SV%. He’ll be in tough against a Lightning team that has won five of their first seven.
Schneider turned aside 28 of 29 shots in the Devils overtime win over the Wild on Saturday. Schneider has won two of his first five games while posting a 1.80 GAA and .943 SV%. This is exactly what we’ve come to expect out of Schneider over the years—elite splits, but a limited number of wins thanks to an anemic Devils’ offence. They’ve tallied just eight goals in front of him this season.

Pulock will miss 4-6 weeks after breaking his foot blocking a shot in Saturday’s win over the Coyotes. Nick Leddy (upper-body) is expected to take Pulock’s spot in the lineup after missing Friday’s game.
Schneider allowed two goals on 36 shots in the Devils loss in Boston on Thursday. Despite posting a strong 2.00 GAA and .938 SV%, Schneider is 1-2-1 in his first four starts of the season. It looks like he will face the Wild tonight—Minnesota comes in having won three in a row while outscoring their opponents 13-8.
Pulock left Friday’s game with a lower-body injury after playing just 3:57 TOI in his season debut. Pulock was given a great opportunity with Nick Leddy out, but the injury forced him from the game and will force him to miss at least one month.

It looks like he will face the Wild tonight—Minnesota comes in having won three in a row while outscoring their opponents 13-8.
Varlamov stopped all 27 shots that he faced in Colorado’s shutout win in Tampa Bay on Thursday. It was an excellent performance from the Russian netminder, who is now 2-1-0 with a 2.67 GAA and .916 SV% in three games this season. A tough matchup on Thursday didn’t seem to matter, but he draws another difficult matchup tonight in Florida. The Panthers are 2-1-1 and are averaging 2.75 goals per game.
