Timmins has been a healthy scratch three of the last four and will return to the press box on Thursday, allowing Ilya Lyubushkin to draw back into the lineup. The 25-year-old has rarely been called upon this season despite his impressive nine points (1G/8A), +7 plus/minus and 24 SOG in 24 games played in 2023-24.
Mermis will take a seat on Tuesday with Alex Goligoski expected to draw back into the lineup. Mermis has three goals and five assists in 47 games this season.
Panthers head coach Paul Maurice confirmed earlier this morning that Sergei Bobrovsky would get the start, but it appears there was a change of plans as Stolarz led the Panthers onto the ice for warmups for Tuesday's game against the Senators. Stolarz will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing start against the Canadiens last Tuesday, when we allowed five goals on 39 shots as the Panthers suffered a 5-3 defeat.
Dewar will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday in New Jersey for the first time since being traded to Toronto at the Trade Deadline in March. The 24-year-old has failed to produce offence early on with the Maple Leafs, with a goal, two points, 16 SOG, and eight PIMs.
With Toronto on a back-to-back Tuesday in New Jersey, Ryan Reaves will be replaced by Nick Robertson in the Maple Leafs' lineup. The 37-year-old bruiser has struggled to produce this season while averaging only 8:04 TOI/GP, with his three goals, five points, 49 PIMs and -14 plus/minus through 46 games played.
Timmins has been a healthy scratch for the Maple Leafs' previous two games but will be drawn back into the lineup on Tuesday for Ilya Lybushkin.

Robertson was a healthy scratch for Toronto's previous two games but will return to the lineup on Tuesday as he replaces Connor Dewar in the lineup. The 22-year-old has appeared in the majority of Toronto's games this season and has taken a step forward with his 12 goals, 24 points, 84 SOG, four PIMs and +2 plus/minus through 51 games played.
Woll will get his first start in three games as he takes on New Jersey for the second half of Toronto's back-to-back on Tuesday. The 25-year-old has struggled through injuries all season but still holds an impressive 11-10-1 record, 2.92 GAA and .907 SV%. He heads to New Jersey to take on the Devils, who have lost three of their last four contests and just announced their star forward Jack Hughes (shoulder) would be out for the remainder of the season.
Uvis Balinksin will draw into the Panters' lineup on Tuesday, making Ekman-Larsson a healthy scratch. Ekman-Larsson has 30 points (9G / 21A) in 78 games this season.
Mark Giordano will draw back into the lineup on Saturday, sending Timmins to the press box as a healthy scratch. Timmins has played the last five games for the Maple Leafs, registering three points (0G / 3A), seven shots, and 14 hits.
Marner has missed the Maple Leafs' previous 12 games due to an ankle injury but could return to the lineup on Saturday against the Montreal Canadiens. The 26-year-old will likely have a handful of games left in the season to add to his 25 goals and 76 points in 62 games.
Ilya Samsonov played the last two games for the Maple Leafs but they will turn to Woll on Wednesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning in an attempt to win four straight. Woll has allowed three or fewer goals in three of his last four (2-2-0), including a strong performance in his last outing, saving 23 of 24 shots (.958 SV%) in a 5-1 win over the Washington Capitals. The Maple Leafs enter action as -120 home favourites.
Tanev briefly left Saturday's game against the Seattle Kraken after receiving a high hit from Adam Larsson that earned him a five-minute major and a game misconduct. The 34-year-old Tanev missed several shifts but completed the game and, after being evaluated, was a full participant at practice on Tuesday and is not expected to miss any time.

After not missing a single game due to injury, Rielly has missed four straight due to an upper-body injury. The 30-year-old All-Star defenseman has enjoyed a very strong year leading the Maple Leafs' point, with seven goals, 51 points, 165 SOG, 27 PIMs and a +8 plus/minus through 65 games. Mark Giordano will likely be the odd man out of the lineup, allowing Rielly to make his return on Wednesday.
With Florida on the second half of a back-to-back, Anthony Stolarz will get the call in Montreal after stopping six shots in a relief appearance vs. Toronto on Monday. The 30-year-old veteran has been arguably the league's best backup goaltender in his first season in Florida, with his 14-6-2 record, 1.99 GAA, and .926 SV%. He heads to Montreal to take on the Canadiens on Tuesday, who have won three of their last four games despite still having the 28th most goals per game in the league (2.68).
