Despite Igor Shesterkin recording a shutout on Monday and having three days before their next game, the Rangers will turn to Quick between the pipes for the fourth time in their last five games. The 38-year-old Quick has been tremendous lately, allowing two or fewer goals in three straight (3-0-0) and posting a stellar .951 SV%. The Rangers, riding a five-game winning streak, are sizeable -245 home favourites against the Montreal Canadiens, the sixth worst offensive team in the league (2.75 GF / GP).

Soucy has not played since suffering a hand injury on January 20th and has been retroactively placed on Injured Reserve. A steadying presence on the blue line, Soucy has been limited to only 21 games this season due to an earlier lower-body injury and is three weeks into his original five-to-six-week prognosis. The 29-year-old has six points (2G / 4A), 21 hits, and 39 blocks this season.

Tyler Pitlick will be a healthy scratch on Monday, allowing Edstrom to re-enter the Rangers' lineup, his second game of the season. On December 15th, Edstrom made his NHL debut, scoring one goal on three shots while playing 9:39 time-on-ice.

The Rangers are rolling, riding a four-game winning streak, mostly without the help of Shesterkin, who served as the backup netminder in all but the most recent victory. That said, the former Vezina-winner will attempt to build off his most recent performance when he saved 28 of 31 shots (.903 SV%) in a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks, his first quality start in his last five outings (2-2-1). The Rangers are -154 home favourites on Monday night against the Calgary Flames, who have outscored their opposition 15-6 during a four-game winning streak.

Shesterkin has not played since January 26th, including serving as the backup to Jonathan Quick in both games since the All-Star break. Shesterkin has struggled all season, including allowing three or more goals in three of his last four games (1-2-1), posting an ugly .846 SV%. The 28-year-old netminder will have a chance to redeem himself in a favourable matchup on Friday as the Rangers are sizeable -297 road favourites against the Chicago Blackhawks.

Quick will return to the crease for his third straight start on Wednesday. The veteran netminder was sensational on Monday night, saving 32 of 33 shots (.970 SV%) in a 2-1 overtime win over the typically high-scoring Colorado Avalanche. Quick has allowed two or fewer goals in his last three starts (2-1-0), posting a tremendous .944 SV%. Quick and the Rangers are -123 home favourites against another top-five offence on Wednesday, the Tampa Bay Lightning, averaging 3.48 goals per game.

Mackey made his season debut with the Rangers before the All-Star break but will return to the Hartford Wolf Pack of the AHL, where he has spent most of the season. The undrafted 27-year-old has nine points (2G / 7A) in 31 games with Hartford this season.

Quick started the final game before the All-Star break for the Rangers and will return to the crease in their first game back on Monday evening. The consecutive starts likely correlate to Igor Shesterkin participating in the All-Star game, but even so, Quick has played well lately. In his last two outings (1-1-0), the 38-year-old Quick has 53 of 57 shots, posting a stellar .930 SV%. The Rangers are slight -115 home favourites against an Avalanche club riding a three-game winning streak.

A solid campaign with the Henderson Silver Knights of the AHL has earned Brisson his second call-up of the season. In 39 games with Henderson, the 29th overall pick of the 2020 NHL Entry Draft 26 points (12G / 14A).

Quick started the final game before the All-Star break for the Rangers and will likely return to the crease in their first game back on Monday evening. The consecutive starts likely correlate to Igor Shesterkin participating in the All-Star game, but even so, Quick has played well lately. In his last two outings (1-1-0), the 38-year-old Quick has 53 of 57 shots, posting a stellar .930 SV%. The Rangers are slight -115 home favourites against an Avalanche club riding a three-game winning streak.

Shesterkin will return to the crease for the Rangers on Friday evening in a matchup against the Vegas Golden Knights. Shesterkin allowed three goals on 22 shots (.864 SV%) in a disappointing 3-2 overtime loss to the bottom-dwelling San Jose Sharks in his last outing. Shesterkin's reputation as an elite goaltender has not held up this season, especially lately, allowing four or more goals in four of his last nine games (4-4-1), posting an ugly .870 SV%. That said, the Rangers are -155 home favourites against a Golden Knights club with points in five straight (4-0-1).

Dowling will make his Devils' debut on Thursday, having not appeared in the NHL since playing 22 games with Vancouver in the 2021-22 season. Maxwell Willman will sit in his place.

The Devils have recalled Dowling from the Utica Comets of the AHL in correspondence to Michael McLeod taking an indefinite leave of absence. The 33-year-old Dowling has 19 points (8G / 11A) in 30 games with Utica this season.

Shesterkin will return to the crease on Tuesday in a favourable matchup against the San Jose Sharks. Shesterkin has had an inconsistent season but has played better lately, allowing two or fewer goals in three of his last four contests (3-1-0), posting a serviceable .909 SV%. The Rangers are significant -341 road favourites against the Sharks, who rank dead-last in the league offensively (2.06 GF / GP).

Brisson will take a seat on Tuesday as Sheldon Rempal draws into the lineup. Brisson has one goal and no assists in four games this season.
