Preview Roundups

January 07, 2020

Vancouver at Tampa Bay 7:00 PM ET

One team has been expected to put together a run like this all season and the other is a bit of a surprise, but the visiting Vancouver Canucks and the Tampa Bay Lightning meet Tuesday night with an eighth straight victory on the line. The reigning Presidents’ Trophy-winning Lightning boast 29 goals during their seven-game streak and the Canucks have scored 30 combined in their run after missing the playoffs the last four seasons.

Arizona at Florida 7:00 PM ET

The Arizona Coyotes, packed with a three-game winning streak and an uncertain goaltending situation, begin a three-game southeast trip Tuesday against the Florida Panthers. Darcy Kuemper (lower body) hasn't played since Dec. 19 and Antti Raanta (lower body) pulled himself from Saturday's 6-2 victory over Philadelphia after two periods with a 4-0 lead because "he felt something," so Adin Hill could make his first start of the season.

NY Islanders at New Jersey 7:00 PM ET

The New York Islanders hope to wake up their dormant offense and keep a hold of second place in the Metropolitan Division when they visit the improving New Jersey Devils on Tuesday night. The Islanders edged Colorado 1-0 on Monday behind 32 saves from Semyon Varlamov, but have managed two goals in the past three games and 13 during their current 3-4-0 speed bump.

Ottawa at Washington 7:00 PM ET

Despite owning the best record in hockey, the Washington Capitals have not been at the top of their game of late, although they showed the ability to elevate their play to another level last time out. Coming off a stunning come-from-behind victory, the Capitals will go for their third straight victory against the visiting Ottawa Senators on Tuesday night.

Philadelphia at Carolina 7:00 PM ET

The Philadelphia Flyers' struggles on the road have been prevalent all season, but the club's disastrous starts during their current three-game losing skid have been downright troubling. The Flyers look for a better beginning on Tuesday when they conclude their season-high six-game trek against the Carolina Hurricanes.

Colorado at NY Rangers 7:30 PM ET

Henrik Lundqvist sports an image of the Statue of Liberty on his goaltender's helmet, fitting because there could be a passing of the torch when the New York Rangers host the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday. Igor Shesterkin, considered by many to be the heir apparent to Lundqvist, will make his NHL debut after posting a 1.93 goals-against average and .932 save percentage in 23 games with AHL Hartford.

Montreal at Detroit 7:30 PM ET

Ilya Kovalchuk made an impression in his debut with the team and hopes to match that performance in a victory this time around when the Montreal Canadiens visit the NHL-worst Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday night. The 36-year-old Kovalchuk had an assist, a plus-2 rating, four shots and six hits as the Canadiens dropped a 3-2 decision against visiting Winnipeg on Monday for their sixth consecutive loss (0-5-1) - and fifth by one goal during that span.

San Jose at St. Louis 8:00 PM ET

The St. Louis Blues have answered a season-high eight-game win streak by losing each contest on their just-concluded three-game road trip. The Blues bid to snap that 0-2-1 skid and continue their good fortune in the Gateway City on Tuesday when they open a five-game homestand against the San Jose Sharks.

Boston at Nashville 8:00 PM ET

With the Nashville Predators sitting only one point out of the basement in the Central Division, team management decided a shake-up was in order and made a change behind the bench. Peter Laviolette was fired Monday night after five-plus seasons and the Predators did not immediately name a replacement in advance of Tuesday's game against the visiting Boston Bruins.

Calgary at Chicago 8:30 PM ET

The Calgary Flames kicked off their two-game road trip by avenging a defeat to one Central Division opponent and have a chance to get even against another. After coming back repeatedly in a 5-4 shootout win at Minnesota on Sunday night, the Flames pay a visit to Chicago on Tuesday night -- one week after dropping a 5-3 decision to the Blackhawks.

Pittsburgh at Vegas 10:00 PM ET

The Vegas Golden Knights have put their best foot forward to begin their season-high seven-game homestand, highlighting that surge by defeating the defending Stanley Cup champions in their last outing. Vegas will vie for its season-high fifth straight victory on Tuesday when the Pittsburgh Penguins pay a visit to T-Mobile Arena.

Columbus at Anaheim 10:00 PM ET

The Columbus Blue Jackets have secured at least a point in 13 of their last 14 games (9-1-4) and will look to continue their winning ways Tuesday when they visit the Anaheim Ducks. The Blue Jackets had an ideal start to their four-game road trip Monday with a 4-2 victory over the Kings, which extended their road point streak to eight games (5-0-3).
