Schmid will make an appearance in the Devils crease on Friday as New Jersey travels to St. Louis for the tail-end of a back-to-back. It's the first start for Schmid since October 25th against the Capitals when he was pulled after surrendering three goals on just eight shots. Starter Vitek Vanecek has started and won all three games since, although he's registered just an .884 SV% over that stretch, so the door for an increased workload may still be open for Schmid if he can regain the form he flashed last season. Schmid has struggled to the tune of an .863 SV% and a 4.07 GAA across his first three starts of the season.

Hart left the Flyers' Wednesday night game against the Buffalo Sabres midway through the first period with an apparent mid-body injury and did not return. Outside of being ruled out for Friday's game, the severity of his injury hasn't been confirmed yet but any extended absence will be a huge loss for the Flyers as he has been off to a terrific start, posting a 2.52 GAA and .913 SV% through eight games (4-3-1). Samuel Ersson will start on Friday in his absence.

Hart left the Flyers' Wednesday night game against the Buffalo Sabres midway through the first period with an apparent mid-body injury and was unable to return. Hart's status hasn't been confirmed yet but any extended absence will be a huge loss for the Flyers as he has been off to a terrific start, posting a 2.52 GAA and .913 SV% through eight games (4-3-1). Look for Samuel Ersson and Felix Sandstrom to take on Hart's goaltending duties in his absence.

Hutton has been a healthy scratch for Vegas' previous five games but will draw back into the lineup Thursday vs. Winnipeg to replace Nicolas Hague (lower body). The 30-year-old defenseman has an assist, eight SOG, five PIMs, and a +3 plus/minus through five games played in 2023-24.

Hart will start for the Flyers on Wednesday after allowing three goals on 33 shots in their most recent contest, a 3-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. Hart has been splendid between the pipes early this season, recording a 2.30 GAA and .921 SV% through seven games (4-3-0) and is one of the main reasons why last season's 26th-ranked Flyers are off to a respectable 4-4-1 start this season. The Flyers are slight -106 home favourites against a Buffalo Sabres team that ranks eighth in the Atlantic Division.

Hill suffered his first loss of the season on Friday, a 4-3 overtime loss at the hands of the Chicago Blackhawks, and will look to rebound on Monday night against the Montreal Canadiens. In five games this season (4-0-1), Hill is sporting a respectable 2.16 GAA and .915 SV%. Hill and the Golden Knights are -221 home favourites against a Montreal Canadiens team that has won four of their last five games.

Hill suffered his first loss of the season on Friday, a 4-3 overtime loss at the hands of the Chicago Blackhawks, and will look to rebound on Monday night as he is the likely starter against the Montreal Canadiens. In five games this season (4-0-1), Hill is sporting a respectable 2.16 GAA and .915 SV%. Hill and the Golden Knights are -221 home favourites against a Montreal Canadiens team that has won four of their last five games.

Korczak will return to the lineup and replace Brayden Pachal after being a healthy scratch on Saturday. Korczak has four points (1G / 3A), four blocks, and 10 hits in five games this season.

Hart served as the Flyers' backup goalie on Saturday as he watched Samuel Ersson struggle, allowing seven goals on 25 shots in a 7-4 loss to the Anaheim Ducks. The Flyers will look to get back on track as Hart will return to the crease and look to continue his outstanding 2.18 GAA and .924 SV% start to the season (4-2-0). That said, the Flyers are +169 home underdogs against a Carolina Hurricanes team that has won two straight, outscoring their opposition 6-2 in those games.

Coghlan served as the Hurrincanes' extra defenseman during their back-to-back on Thursday and Friday. With the Hurricanes off until Monday, Coghlan goes back to Springfield, where he could play on Saturday and Sunday.

Hill continued his early season run of dominance as he stopped 21 of 24 shots (.875 SV%) for his fourth-straight win in his previous start vs. Chicago and will take the Blackhawks on again Friday. The 27-year-old signed a fresh two-year, $9.8 million contract in the offseason after leading Vegas to its first-ever Stanley Cup and has not disappointed this season as he is 4-0-0 with a .934 SV% and a 1.73 GAA. He takes on the struggling Chicago Blackhawks, who have lost five of their last six games and are 30th in the NHL in goals for (2.0).

On Tuesday, Hart allowed three goals on 29 shots in a heartbreaking 3-2 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights but will look to rebound when he takes the starter's crease on Thursday night against the Minnesota Wild. Hart has a 3-2-0 record along with an impressive 2.21 GAA and .922 SV% through five contests. The Minnesota Wild have been scoring with ease, despite being without Matt Boldy, averaging 4.17 goals per game so far this season (3-2-1), attributing to the Flyers +104 home underdogs.

Schmid will return to the Devils' crease for his third start of the season after Vitek Vanecek got the nod in Tuesday's 5-2 victory over the Canadiens. Fantasy managers will be hoping for a strong performance from Schmid tonight after enduring a relatively slow start to the season. The 23-year-old netminder has stopped just 58 of the 65 shots he's faced this season, and has a 3.30 GAA to go along with a 1-0-1 record to show for it. New Jersey should provide plenty of goal support all season long, so there is still a lot of potential fantasy value to be had in Schmid if he can reclaim his form from the end of last season and challenge Vanecek for more starts.

Hagg signed a one-year, $775,000 deal with Anaheim in the offseason and has been recalled from San Deigo (AHL) for the first time this season. The 28-year-old is entering his eighth NHL season with his fifth team after putting up two goals, five assists, 26 PIMs, 40 SOG and a -5 plus/minus in 38 games with Detroit in 2022-23.

Hart will return to the Flyers' crease on Tuesday after getting a night off on Saturday against the Stars courtesy of backup Samuel Ersson. Hart has been outstanding through his first four games of the season, and is the primary reason why the Flyers currently find themselves atop the Metropolitan division. The 25-year-old netminder has registered a .929 SV% and a 2.01 GAA to go along with his 3-1-0 record. He'll face the biggest test of his young season so far in the defending Stanley Cup champion Golden Knights, who have won all six of their games to open the campaign.
