Ullmark will be back between the pipes on Tuesday after Jeremy Swayman got the nod in Saturday's 2-1 overtime defeat to the Rangers.

He did collect a win his last time out over the Islanders despite surrendering four goals on 37 shots. He draws an enticing matchup on Tuesday with the Bruins being -225 home favourites over the Wild.

Ullmark will start for the third time in the last four games for the Bruins when they face off against the New York Islanders on Friday.

Chabot was not able to complete Saturday's game, his second game after a 10-game absence due to a hand injury, exiting late in the third period after playing 22:29 with a lower-body injury and has been placed on the Long-Term Injured Reserve Thursday. In the two games, Chabot scored one point (0G / 1A) and eight shots on goal while quarterbacking the Senators' top powerplay unit. He is expected to be out a minimum of four weeks.

Ullmark played very well in his last contest, saving 37 of 40 shots (.925 SV%) in a 4-3 overtime victory against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday. Before that, Ullmark allowed nine goals on 60 shots (.850 SV%) in consecutive losing appearances but will look to string together strong performances as the Bruins are sizeable -275 home favourites against the Buffalo Sabres. In Ullmark's last contest against his former team, he saved 32 of 34 shots (.941 SV%) in a 5-2 victory on November 14th.

Chabot and the Senators are awaiting his MRI results, hoping for positive news, as any prolonged absence for Chabot will be a disheartening blow for the team after just recently re-welcoming him back into the lineup. He was not able to complete Saturday's game, his second game after a 10-game absence due to a hand injury, exiting late in the third period after playing 22:29 with an undisclosed injury. In the two games, Chabot scored one point (0G / 1A) and eight shots on goal while quarterbacking the Senators' top powerplay unit.
