Johansson backed up Alexandar Georgiev for the Avalanche's previous two games and failed to see any NHL action and will head back to the Colorado Eagles (AHL) Friday. The 27-year-old heads back to the Eagles, where he had a 12-8-0 record, .917 SV% and 2.42 GAA.
Vasilevskiy stopped 28 of 29 shots (.966 SV%) for his fifth win in six starts as he defeated the Dallas Stars in his last start. The 28-year-old has led the NHL in wins the last five seasons and finds himself one win off the lead again this season with his 25-13-1 record, 2.52 GAA and .919 SV%. He will take on the Colorado Avalanche, who won their last game 5-3 vs. Florida and are seventh in the NHL in shots (33.3).
Paul has missed the Lightnings' previous two games due to an upper-body injury but is expected back in the lineup Tuesday vs. Colorado. The 27-year-old has 16 goals, 10 assists, 80 SOG, 23 PIMs and a +10 plus/minus through 50 games prior to the injury.

Johansson has a 12-8-0 record, .917 SV% and 2.42 GAA with the Colorado Eagles (AHL) and has been recalled by the Colorado Avalanche Monday. It is the second time Johansson has been called up, stopping seven of seven shots in a relief appearance in his previous start.
With the Toronto Maple Leafs off until Wednesday, Pontus Holmberg has been loaned to the Toronto Marlies (AHL). He should find himself back with the big club in no time, where he has five goals, eight assists, 22 SOG, and 12 PIMs across 35 games in his rookie campaign.
Paul left Tuesday's game with an undisclosed injury and did not return. Head coach Jon Cooper said Paul will not play Thursday vs. Colorado.
Holmberg returns to the Maple Leafs where he has five goals, eight assists, 20 SOG, 12 PIMs and a +2 plus/minus through 33 games this season. He was returned to the Toronto Marlies (AHL) over the all-star break to stay active and get a few games while the Maple Leafs were off.
Vasilevskiy allowed seven goals on 49 shots (.857 SV%) as he was peppered in his previous start, ending a three-game winning streak as he lost 7-1 to Florida. It has been another successful season for the goaltender who has led the NHL in wins the last five seasons, with his 23-13-1 record, 2.63 GAA, and .916 SV%. He takes on the Colorado Avalanche, who lost their last game 2-1 vs. Pittsburgh in overtime but have won seven of their last nine games.
Paul left Tuesday's game with an undisclosed injury and did not return. Head coach Jon Cooper did not have an update on Paul's status post-game, so consider him questionable to play Thursday vs. Colorado until the Lightning provides an update on his status.
Vasilevskiy allowed two goals on 28 shots (.929 SV%) for his third-straight win as he defeated the Los Angeles Kings in his previous start. The 28-year-old has been great yet again this season, with his 23-12-1 record, .918 SV% and 2.51 GAA. He takes on the Florida Panthers, who just snapped a three-game losing skid with a 4-3 overtime victory over Boston in their last game.

Pelletier has 16 goals, 20 assists, a +4 plus/minus and 22 PIMs through 33 games with the Calgary Wranglers (AHL) but earned his second call-up of the season Monday. He failed to pick up any points in his previous four-game NHL appearance earlier this season.
The Flames do not play again until after the All-Star break, so they sent a trio of young players, including Pelletier, back to the AHL.
Vasilevskiy stopped 33 of 35 shots (.943 SV%) to snap a two-game winning streak as he beat Minnesota in his previous start. The 28-year-old has led the NHL in wins in each of the last five seasons and is on pace to compete for the crown again as he is 21-12-1 with a 2.54 GAA and .917 SV%. He runs into the juggernaut that is the Boston Bruins, who have won 10 of their last 11 games after a 4-2 win over Montreal last game.
Gourde missed the Krakens' previous game due to an undisclosed injury and will be good to go after being expected a game-time decision Wednesday as Seattle takes on the Vancouver Canucks. The 31-year-old has been having one of his best career seasons to date, with six goals, 24 assists, 78 SOG, 44 PIMs and a +16 plus/minus through 45 games prior to the injury.
