Lankinen will start Monday vs. the Coyotes.

Lankinen stopped 39 of 40 shots (.975 SV%) for his second-straight win as he beat the Columbus Blue Jackets' handily in his previous start. The 27-year-old Predators' backup has been having his best season to date, with his 5-4-1 record, 2.64 GAA and .924 SV%. He takes on the Arizona Coyotes, who are in the midst of trading star defenseman Jakob Chychrun and have lost their last two games after a 6-5 loss to St. Louis last game.

Jake DeBrusk was a full participant in Monday's practice (hand) but is doubtful for Tuesday's game.

DeBrusk last played on January 2nd due to a hand injury but was a welcome full participant at Boston's practice Monday morning and is still doubtful to return to the lineup Tuesday vs. Dallas, but should be back Thursday. The 26-year-old had been enjoying somewhat of a breakout campaign, with his 16 goals and 30 points across 36 games prior to the injury.

Kravtsov will draw into the Rangers lineup on Friday.

Kravtsov last suited up for the Rangers on January 23rd as he was a healthy scratch but finds himself back in New York's lineup as they take on Seattle Friday. The 23-year-old has three goals, three assists, 26 SOG, six PIMs and a +5 plus/minus through 27 games played in his second NHL season.

Hronek left Sunday's practice with an upper-body injury and is questionable to play Tuesday.

Hronek has seven goals, 26 assists, 110 SOG, 26 PIMs and a +12 plus/minus through 48 games but will now be a game-time decision for Tuesday after leaving Red Wings' practice with an upper-body injury. It will be a tough loss if he is forced to miss time as the 25-year-old defenseman is easily on pace to crush his previous career-high in points of 38 achieved in 2021-22.

The Canucks have recalled Nils Aman from Abbotsford (AHL).

Aman has split his season between the AHL and NHL. During his time with Vancouver, Aman has picked up five points (1G / 4A) in 35 games. Look for him to centre the fourth line when the Canucks return to the ice on Monday.

Lankinen will start Tuesday vs. the Blue Jackets.

Lankinen allowed two goals on 32 shots in the Predators win in Washington on January 6th. Lankinen missed some time with an illness but will start for the first time in 11 days.

Tonight he'll face a Blue Jackets team that has lost 13 of their last 16 games (3-13-0) while scoring just 1.9 goals per game.
