Greer has registered two goals and six assists (eight points) in eight AHL games this season. The 21-year-old, former second-round pick (No.39 overall in 2015) has just four assists in 22 career NHL games and will likely make his season debut on Thursday.
Husso has been recalled because Jake Allen was hurt on Saturday, but may not play during his time in St. Louis. Husso has never made an NHL appearance and has gone 1-6-0 with a 3.19 GAA and .887 SV% in seven AHL games this season.
Brossoit stopped 42 of 45 shots in the Jets win over the Coyotes last Saturday. Through his first two starts as a Winnipeg Jet, Brossoit has turned away an impressive 84 of 88 shots (.955 SV%) two win both games. He should be able to continue his roll tonight in Detroit—the Red Wings are 1-6-2 while averaging the fourth fewest goals (2.22) in the league.
Terry was given a great chance to play on the Ducks top line to start the season, but has not recorded a point in six games and has recently moved down the lineup. He heads to San Diego where he figures to get his offensive game going and likely return to Anaheim shortly.
Brossoit stopped 42 of 43 shots in the Jets win over the Hurricanes last Sunday. Brossoit was exceptional in his Winnipeg debut and will make his second start vs. the Coyotes tonight. Arizona is on the tail-end of a back-to-back and still rank last in the NHL in goals per game (1.17) so far this season.
Vatrano split his 2018 season between the Bruins and Panthers. The 23-year-old had eight points (5G / 3A) in 16 games with Florida, finishing the year with 10 points (7G / 3A) in 41 games. Vatrano seemed to have found a nice home in Florida and should be a bottom-6 winger with them to start 2019.
Vatrano is dinged up so he will come out of the lineup this afternoon. This is a tough break for Vatrano, who will miss an opportunity to face his former team in Boston. The injury is believed to be minor so look for him to be back in on Monday.
Al Montoya is not available to backup Cam Talbot vs. the Ducks on Sunday, so Brossoit comes up to handle that duty.
Husso was recalled to backup Jake Allen on Monday and he could be recalled again to do the same on Thursday, but that is all dependant on Carter Hutton’s health.
Husso was Jake Allen’s backup on Saturday but went down to get a start with San Antonio, where he posted a 21-save shutout on Sunday, and he returns to backup Allen tonight in Anaheim. Husso’s recall means that Carter Hutton still is not ready to go.
Vatrano has been sidelined since February 6th with a lower-body injury, but it looks like he’ll play tonight vs. the Rangers. Vatrano appeared to have a bright future in Boston but was passed on the depth chart by players like Jake DeBrusk and Danton Heinen. He will make his Panthers debut with 20 goals and 11 assists (31 points) in 108 career NHL games.
Kreider has been out with a blood clot since December 27th but he was able to skate before Wednesday’s morning skate. Kreider remains without a timetable for his return, but this is a positive step in his return.
Vatrano recorded one shot in 4:53 TOI before leaving last night’s game in Detroit. Vatrano is listed as doubtful with a lower-body injury, but there was a good chance he came out anyways with Brad Marchand returning from a five-game suspension.
