7:00 pm ET games
Vancouver @ NY Rangers
Likely Vancouver starter: Cory Schneider (Source.)
Likely NY Rangers starter: Henrik Lundqvist (Source.)
Ottawa @ NY Islanders
Likely Ottawa starter: Robin Lehner - This will mark his NHL debut. I guess it’s good to play with an odd mixture of a clean slate (it can get any worse) and plenty of pressure (things are desperate for the Sens), right? (Source.)
Likely NY Islanders starter: Kevin Poulin (Source.)
Philadelphia @ Boston
Likely Philadelphia starter: Brian Boucher (Source.)
Likely Boston starter: Tim Thomas (Source.)
Carolina @ Buffalo
Likely Carolina starter: Cam Ward (Source.)
Likely Buffalo starter: Ryan Miller (Source.)
Nashville @ Florida
Likely Nashville starter: Pekka Rinne - My best guess.
Likely Florida starter: Scott Clemmensen - And apparently Tomas Vokoun isn’t very happy about it. (Source.)
