Vasilevskiy finds himself on a three-game winning streak after defeating Nashville his last time out on the back of a 30 save on 32 shot (.938 SV%) performance. The NHL leader in wins the last five seasons has struggled so far in 2022-23, posting a 7-5-1 record with a .909 SV% and 2.84 GAA. He draws the tough task of taking on the league-leading Boston Bruins who carry a 16-2-0 record into the game Monday and find themselves on a six-game winning streak.

Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 19 of 22 shots (.864 SV%) in a win over Washington his last time out. He has been having a very down year compared to his usual all-star standards, posting a 5-5-1 record and glaringly low .898 SV% to go along with his 3.10 GAA. He takes on the Calgary Flames who won 6-5 over Los Angeles in their last game to extend their win streak to two games.

Elliot stopped 21 of 24 shots (.875 SV%) his last time out a week ago (Nov.5) against Buffalo picking up the 5-3 win in his fourth start of the season. The Lightning's backup carries a 3-1-0 record but has fought the puck this season with his 3.26 GAA and .895 SV%. He will take on the Dallas Stars' Tuesday who last won 5-1 over Philadelphia in their previous game.

Holmberg will be recalled for a second time this season after getting a small cup of coffee with the Maple Leafs earlier in the season, playing one game where he collected two shots over 10:01 TOI. The 23-year-old has a goal and four assists with Toronto (AHL) prior to his call up to the Leafs.

Vasilevskiy amazingly stopped 52 shots and still took the loss as Tampa dropped his previous start 4-3 vs. Carolina. He has not been his usual dominant self early on this year, posting a 4-3-1 record, with his .911 SV% and 2.87 GAA. He faces off against Edmonton Tuesday who is on the second half of a back-to-back after dropping their third straight contest Monday in a 5-4 loss to Washington.

Holmberg made his NHL debut on Nov 2nd vs Philadelphia playing only 10:01 TOI in his only action with the Maple Leafs so far this season. He was sent down to the Toronto Marlies (AHL) Tuesday as Jordie Benn was activated from the injured reserve.

Paul left Thursday's game vs. The Hurricanes with an undisclosed injury and was not on the ice for Friday's practice. If Paul can't play, expect Vladislav Namestnikov to move up into the top-6.

Hedman has missed the last two games with an undisclosed injury but was on the ice for the Lightning's morning skate and will be a game-time decision vs. the Sabres. Expect Hedman to be back on the top-pair with Erik Cernak and the top PP unit if he plays.

Vasielvskiy stopped only 12 of 15 shots (.800%) in an odd 4-3 victory over Ottawa his last time out. After leading the NHL in wins the last five seasons, he has a 4-3-0 record along with a .902 SV% and 2.88 GAA. He should face a lot of rubber as he takes on Carolina Thursday who is 5th in the NHL in shots (36.2) and coming off a shootout win their last time out.
