Keep updated on all the injury news and roster updates from around the NHL with daily Ice Chips.

Montreal Canadiens

Goaltender Carey Price will start Tuesday night against the Minnesota Wild, head coach Martin St. Louis confirmed.

Price made his season debut last Friday against the New York Islanders, stopping 17 of 19 shots in a 3-0 defeat. 

Meanwhile, defenceman Jeff Petry is taking part in Tuesday's optional skate after skipping Monday's practice for treatment.

Laurent Dauphin, Mathieu Perreault and Jordan Harris will all draw in against Minnesota Tuesday. Lu tweets that forward Jake Evans is at home sick and the team is unsure if he has COVID-19. Forward Joel Armia is taking a leave of absence for family reasons and defenceman Corey Schueneman will also sit Tuesday.

Vancouver Canucks

Jaroslav Halak will start in net Tuesday against the Ottawa Senators as the Canucks look to win their seventh straight game.

Halak, 36, 4-7-2 record with a .899 save percentage and a 3.01 GAA this season.

 

Toronto Maple Leafs

Injured Maple Leafs forward Auston Matthews and Jake Muzzin were on the ice ahead of the team's optional skate prior to their game against the Philadelphia Flyers Tuesday night.

Matthews missed Sunday's game against the New York Islanders with an undisclosed injury.

"It's just not worth him having to play through anything, as minor as it might've been," head coach Sheldon Keefe said Sunday of Matthews. "We got to be smart with those kind of things. If it was a playoff game, he's probably playing."

Muzzin has missed Toronto's previous two games and has played in just four contests since late February. Muzzin will not play Tuesday night but he will accompany the Leafs on their coming three-game road trip beginning Thursday in Tampa.

Ondrej Kase also skated before Tuesday's session in a red no-contact sweater. As TSN's Mark Masters points out, this is the first time Kase has been seen on the ice with teammates since his concussion about one month ago.

Jack Campbell is in the starter's net, indicating he will get the nod Tuesday evening, tweets Masters. 

Olivia Reiner of the Philadelphia Inquirer tweets that Martin Jones was the first goalie off the ice at Philadelphia's morning skate and is the likely starter.

Winnipeg Jets

The Jets are going with Connor Hellebuyck in net Tuesday night against the New York Rangers, head coach Dave Lowry said via Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press.

Lowry also said the rest of the lineup will be the same as their last game, meaning Dylan Samberg and Adam Brooks will be healthy scratches while Mark Scheifele and Cole Perfetti remain out.

New York Islanders

The New York Islanders are assigning forward Aatu Raty to the AHL's Bridgeport Islanders, it was announced Tuesday.

The 19-year-old has played for Jukurit Mikkeli in the SM-Liiga this season, scoring 13 goals and adding 27 assists.

He was selected by the Isles in the second round (No. 52 overall) of the 2021 draft.

Minnesota Wild

Cam Talbot will get the start between the pipes Tuesday in Montreal, tweets The Athletic's Michael Russo.

Forward Mitchell Chaffee will make his NHL debut Tuesday on a line with Brandon Duhaime and Connor Dewar, tweets Russo.

Meanwhile, Forward Nicolas Deslauriers will play in his 500th NHL game in the matchup.

St. Louis Blues

Goaltender Ville Husso will get the start Tuesday night in Boston against the Bruins, tweets The Athletic's Jeremy Rutherford.

The 27-year-old is 24-6-5 with a goals-against average of 2.44 and a save percentage of .923 in 37 games so far this season. 

Florida Panthers

Sergei Bobrovsky will be in net Tuesday night against the New York Islanders, according to head coach Andrew Brunette.

Defenceman Robert Hagg will also draw back in after being out Sunday against the Detroit Red Wings. 

Detroit Red Wings

Thomas Greiss will start in net Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, head coach Jeff Blashill said via Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.

Goalie Alex Nedeljkovic is ill and was not at the morning skate. He will be a game-time decision to back up Greiss on Tuesday. If he can't go, Magnus Hellberg will dress as the backup.
