Calvin Pickard will make his Oilers' debut on Monday vs. Florida.

Pickard has 116 NHL games under his belt but will receive his first start at the NHL level since the 2021-22 season when he was a member of the Detroit Red Wings. Jack Campbell's reassignment earlier this month triggered Pickard's call-up from Bakersfield (AHL), where he posted a sensational 2.03 GAA and .939 SV% in four games (2-2-0). Pickard will have his work cut out for him in his return to NHL action as the Oilers face off against a Florida Panthers team that has won six of their past seven contests (6-1-0).

Tristan Jarry will start Saturday at Carolina.

Jarry will take the Penguins' crease for the eighth time in nine games after snapping a four-game winning streak with a loss in his previous start after allowing five goals on 31 shots (.839 SV%). The 28-year-old workhorse netminder leads the NHL in shutouts (3) and has an impressive 6-6-0 record, 2.56 GAA and .910 SV%. He takes on the Carolina Hurricanes on the road, who have won three of their last five games and are third in the NHL in shots per game (34.0).

Jake Walman (undisclosed) left Friday's game vs. Toronto after crashing into the net and will not return.

Walman left Friday's Global Series game in Sweden after crashing into the post in the second period and will not return. The 27-year-old's absence will be a massive loss if he is forced to miss any time as he has four goals, seven points, 31 SOG, 18 PIMs and a +5 plus/minus in 16 games this season while manning the Red Wings' top defensive pair for 21:01 TOI/GP.

Spencer Stastney is expected to make his season debut Saturday vs. Chicago.

Stastney is expected to play his ninth career NHL game, his first of the season, on Saturday against the Chicago Blackhawks. The Predators' fifth-round pick in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft has four points (1G / 3A) in 10 games with the Milwaukee Admirals (AHL) this season.

Connor Ingram will start Thursday at Columbus.

Ingram has been terrific for the Coyotes this season, winning five of the team's seven games, posting a 2.87 GAA and .911 SV%, noticeably outperforming teammate Karel Vejmelka, despite having played in two fewer games. Ingram looks poised for another strong performance on Thursday as the Coyotes are -117 road favourites against a Columbus Blue Jackets team that has lost six consecutive games (0-4-2), held to three or fewer goals in four of those contests.

Tristan Jarry will start Thursday vs. New Jersey.

Jarry will start for the Penguins on Thursday as the team looks to extend their season-best five-game winning streak. After a poor five-game stretch (1-4-0), allowing 15 goals on 115 shots (.870 SV%), Jarry has been nearly impenetrable, saving 106 of 111 shots (.955 SV%) in four games since (4-0-0). The Penguins are -132 home favourites against a New Jersey Devils team that has struggled with Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier out of the lineup, losing four of five (1-4-0), averaging only 2.60 goals per game.

Mattias Janmark (shoulder) has been placed on the LTIR retroactive to October 26th.

Janmark has not played since suffering a shoulder injury on October 26th and has been placed on the long-term injured reserve. Janmark was averaging 13:05 time-on-ice in the seven games leading up to his injury, scoring zero points and a -2 plus/minus rating. The Oilers have recalled Raphael Lavoie and Adam Erne.

Jarry will start in Columbus on Tuesday.

The Penguins are playing their best hockey of the season and will turn to Jarry as they attempt to extend their winning streak to five games. Jarry has not allowed a goal in over 108 minutes and is rocking a fabulous .975 SV% over his last three games (3-0-0). The Penguins have outscored their opposition by a dominant 20-5 total over their last four contests (4-0-0) and will look to continue their dominance as -173 road favourites against a Columbus Blue Jackets team that scores the seventh-fewest goals in the league (2.73 GF / GP).

Ty Emberson will draw back into the Sharks' lineup Tuesday vs. Florida.

Emberson has played seven games this season but has been out of the lineup since November 7th. He has one point (0G / 1A), nine blocks, and nine hits while averaging 15:57 time-on-ice. He is expected to replace Kyle Burroughs, who will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday.

Jack Roslovic (fractured ankle) has been placed on the injured reserve and is expected to be out for 4-6 weeks.

Roslovic left the Blue Jackets' previous game vs. the Rangers after 16:17 TOI after blocking a shot and will now miss 4-6 weeks with a fractured ankle. The 26-year-old heads to the injured reserve with two goals, six assists, 29 SOG, six PIMs, and a -6 plus/minus through 14 games prior to his injury. David Jiricek has been recalled in a corresponding roster move.

Jack Roslovic (undisclosed) has been placed on the injured reserve.

Roslovic played the entire game for the Blue Jackets on Sunday but suffered an undisclosed injury at some point and has since been placed on the injured reserve, meaning he will miss at least one week. Roslovic was off to a strong start this season, tallying eight points (2G / 6A) in 14 games and 29 shots while averaging 16:31 time-on-ice. Kent Johnson, who was sent down to Cleveland (AHL) last week, could be an option to replace Roslovic's offence for the Blue Jackets should they opt to recall him.

Matthew Savoie is likely to make his NHL debut Friday vs. Minnesota.

Savoie is one of the Sabres' most intriguing prospects after being draft as a first-round pick of the 2022 NHL Draft (9th overall) and is set to make his debut Friday vs. Minnesota. The 19-year-old centre appeared for five games for Rochester (AHL) earlier this season and had two goals, three assists, and six PIMs in six games played.
