Lafreniere has five goals, 12 assists, 63 SOG and 10 PIMs through 36 games but will surprisingly be a healthy scratch Thursday vs. the Lightning. It is the first scratch of the season for the 2020 1st overall pick.

Shesterkin was not busy, stopping 15 of 18 shots (.833 SV%) as he picked up his seventh victory in eight starts with a win over the Islanders his last time out. The 2021-22 Vezina Trophy winner has an incredible record (17-5-4) but has not been his usual dominant self with his 2.44 GAA and .916 SV%. He will face the Washington Capitals, who are in the middle of a four-game winning streak and have won nine of their last 10 games.

Chytil left the Rangers' previous contest vs. Chicago after just 4:48 TOI due to an upper-body injury but still managed to pick up a goal and an assist with two SOG in his limited time. There was a chance he would be forced to miss Tuesday, but he announced in the morning that he is "good to go" and will play vs. Pittsburgh.

Chytil collected one goal and one assist in 4:48 TOI before exiting Sunday's game in Chicago with an upper-body injury. After Chytil left, Barclay Goodrow moved to centre, and Vitaly Kravtsov moved up the lineup, look for that to remain if he can't go Tuesday.

He will face the scorching hot Toronto Maple Leafs, who have won four straight and nine of their last 10 games.

Shesterkin stopped 41 of 42 shots (.976 SV%) in his third straight victory, with a win over Colorado his last time out.

Last season's Vezina Trophy winner has not been as dominant this season as shown by his .913 SV%, 2.58 GAA and 12-4-4 record. He will face the Colorado Avalanche, who have uncharacteristically lost three straight and four of their last five games.
