Lindgren will start Game 2 on Tuesday in New York. Lindgren allowed four goals on 31 shots (.871 SV%) in a game 1 loss but will get the chance for redemption on Tuesday as he takes the crease for Game 2 in New York. The 30-year-old veteran netminder broke out in 2023-24 in his first season as a starter, with his 25-16-7 record, 2.67 GAA, .911 SV% and league-leading six shutouts. He will look to slow down the President Trophy winners in New York for Game 2, who finished the regular season seventh in the NHL in goals per game (3.39). Source: Sammi Silber

The Rangers had a dominant 4-1 victory in game one of their opening-round series against the Washington Capitals and will continue to roll with Shesterkin between the pipes. Shesterkin didn't face a lot of rubber in game one but was solid when called upon, saving 20 of 21 shots (.952 SV%). The Rangers enter action on Tuesday as -272 home favourites.Source: Mollie Walker

Vasilevskiy will start Game 2 on Tuesday in Florida. Unsurprisingly, the Lightning will turn right back to Vasilevskiy as they look to rebound in Game 2 of their series against the Panthers. The former Vezina Trophy winner was unfortunate to come out on the losing end of Game 1. He allowed just two goals on 27 shots in the 3-2 defeat. Vasilevskiy and the Lightning enter action tonight as slight underdogs at +135 as they hope to even the series before heading back home for Game 3. Source: Gabby Shirley

Bobrovsky will start Game 2 vs. the Lightning. After a 3-2 victory in game one, the Panthers will turn to Bobrovsky between the pipes again. The veteran netminder was solid in game one, despite not being overly tested, saving 17 of 19 shots (.895 SV%) in the victory. The Panthers enter game two as -170 home favourites against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Source: Jameson Olive

Georgiev will start Game 2 on Tuesday in Winnipeg. After a disappointing 7-6 game one loss to the Winnipeg Jets, Colorado will turn to Georgiev for a second straight game. Georgiev had a forgettable game-one performance, echoing the latter half of his regular season, allowing seven goals on 23 shots (.696 SV%). The Avalanche enter action on Tuesday as -115 road favourites in game two. Source: Jesse Montano

Hellebuyck will start Game 2 vs. the Avalanche. After winning a wild game one, 7-6 over the Colorado Avalanche, the Jets will return to Hellebuyck between the pipes for game two. Hellebuyck was far from perfect in the series opener, but did enough to secure a victory, saving 40 of 46 shots (.870 SV%). The Jets enter game two as +104 home underdogs. Source: Scott Billeck

Nashville Predators at Vancouver Canucks

Juuse Saros
Confirmed

| GAA: | 2.86 |

| SO: | 3 |
Saros will start Game 2 on Tuesday in Vancouver. Saros will unsurprisingly get the nod in goal on Tuesday as he and the Predators look to bounce back from a disappointing Game 1 defeat. Nashville's starting netminder allowed three goals on just 20 shots in Sunday's loss, as the Canucks added an empty netter to seal a 4-2 victory and take the early series lead. Saros and the Predators enter tonight as very slight underdogs at +105. They will be hoping to steal home-ice advantage from the Canucks and even up the series before heading back home for Game 3.

Casey DeSmith
Confirmed

DeSmith will start Game 2 vs. the Predators. With the surprising news that Thatcher Demko (undisclosed) will not be available for game two, and possibly beyond, the Canucks will turn to DeSmith in the crease. DeSmith is familiar with the Canucks crease as he was their mainstay between the pipes for the latter part of the season as Demko missed most of the final month due to a knee injury. DeSmith had a 2.89 GAA and .895 SV% in 29 games this season (12-9-6). The Canucks enter game two against the Nashville Predators as -131 home favourites. Source: Max Herz
