With Nils Lundkvist experiencing concussion-like symptoms, Jani Hakanpaa suffering from an upper-body injury, and Miro Heiskanen away from the team for the birth of his child, the Dallas Stars have opted to recall defensemen Alex Petrovic and Derrick Pouliot from the Texas Stars. The 30-year-old Pouliot is no stranger to the NHL with 221 games under his belt but has spent the entirety of the 2023-24 campaign with Texas (AHL), tallying 31 points (8G / 23A) in 44 games.

Frederick Andersen temporarily occupied the starter's crease at the Hurricanes' morning skate on Monday, indicating he is nearing a return, but Martin tend the twine for the second straight contest. Martin has been excellent in two games with the Hurricanes, notably on Saturday when he saved 29 of 30 shots (.967 SV%) in a 3-1 win over the Vegas Golden Knights. The Hurricanes are significant -435 home favourites on Monday against a Chicago Blackhawks club that snapped an eight-game losing streak on Saturday.

Shesterkin stopped all 29 shots that he faced in the Rangers' shutout win over the Flames on Tuesday. Shesterkin has won two in a row and is 5-2-1 with a .905 SV% in his last eight games. Today he will face an Islanders team that has gone 3-3-2 while averaging 2.8 goals for and 2.9 goals against per game since hiring Patrick Roy.

Raddysh missed practice on Friday due to a right quad injury and will be a game-time decision on Saturday as Chicago hosts Ottawa. The 25-year-old winger is having an incredibly disappointing 2023-24 season, with five goals, 11 points, 83 SOG, 12 PIMs and a -11 plus/minus through 49 games played. If he is able to go, he will take his usual spot on Chicago's third line and 2nd powerplay unit.

Rempe has earned a call-up from Hartford (AHL) and could be in line for his NHL debut. The 21-year-old has 12 points (8G / 4A) and 96 penalty minutes in 43 games with Hartford this season.

Brisson made his NHL debut with the Golden Knights earlier this season, scoring three points (1G / 2A) in seven games. The 22-year-old was the 29th overall pick of the Golden Knights in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft.

Scanlin is an undrafted 24-year-old out of the University of Nebraska-Omaha. In 43 games with the Hartford Wolf Pack (AHL), his third season with the club, Scanlin has 14 points (7G / 7A).

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.
