Jimmy Howard, G, DET5/20/2013 10:31:00 PM
Description: Detroit goaltender Jimmy Howard had 39 saves Monday in a Game 3 win over Chicago.
Insight: He's stopped 96 out of the 101 shots he's faced in the series (.950 save percentage). The Red Wings hold a 2-1 series lead with Game 4 coming up Thursday in Detroit.
Henrik Lundqvist, G, NYR5/20/2013 10:27:00 PM
Description: Rangers netminder Henrik Lundqvist acknowledged that he's been dealing with a shoulder injury but says that he has it "under control." SOURCE: The Bergen Record
Insight: Lundqvist was dominant versus the Capitals in round one but so far he's struggled against the Bruins (eight goals allowed in two games). He'll look to turn things around Tuesday in Game 3 at Madison Square Garden. Lundqvist is undefeated at home this postseason (3-0).
Craig Anderson, G, OTT5/20/2013 11:48:00 AM
Description: Ottawa goalie Craig Anderson was stellar against the Penguins in Game 3, stopping 49 of 50 shots over 87-plus minutes.
Insight: Anderson gave up three goals on 21 shots in Game 2 and was replaced just 21 minutes into the game, so this effort is a massive improvement. He'll need to continue to play at this level if the Senators are to win and advance.
Tomas Vokoun, G, PIT5/20/2013 11:40:00 AM
Description: Penguins goaltender Tomas Vokoun stopped 46 of 48 shots in a double overtime loss to Ottawa.
Insight: It was Vokoun's first loss after four playoff wins, but it will be interesting to see if the team goes back to Marc-Andre Fleury. Fleury has struggled in the playoffs, going 2-2 with a 3.40 GAA and .891 save percentage, but does have 45 playoff wins on his resume and a Stanley Cup title.
Henrik Lundqvist, G, NYR5/19/2013 7:15:00 PM
Description: New York goalie Henrik Lundqvist allowed five goals Sunday in a Game 2 loss to Boston.
Insight: That's the most goals Lundqvist (27 saves) has given up in a game since March of 2011. We're guessing he'll be much better Tuesday in Game 3.
Craig Anderson, G, OTT5/17/2013 8:52:00 PM
Description: Ottawa goalie Craig Anderson was pulled in the second period Friday night against Pittsburgh.
Insight: Anderson gave up three goals on 21 shots before being replaced by Robin Lehner. All three Penguins goals were scored by Sidney Crosby.
Niklas Backstrom, G, MIN5/16/2013 7:42:00 PM
Description: Minnesota goalie Niklas Backstrom had surgery to fix a sports hernia on Thursday. SOURCE: Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune
Insight: He went 24-15-3 with a 2.48 GAA in 2013. The 35-year-old is set to become a free agent this offseason.
Henrik Lundqvist, G, NYRHot5/13/2013 10:45:00 PM
Description: Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist blanked the Capitals for the second game in a row Monday night in Game 7.
Insight: The reigning Vezina Trophy winner was spectacular in round one (.947 save percentage). He'll face the Bruins in the Eastern Conference semis.
Henrik Lundqvist, G, NYR5/12/2013 8:03:00 PM
Description: New York goalie Henrik Lundqvist recorded his seventh career postseason shutout Sunday in a win over the Capitals.
Insight: That forces a Game 7 Monday night in Washington. Lundqvist has allowed 12 goals on 191 shots this postseason (.937 save percentage).
Josh Harding, G, MIN5/9/2013 6:23:00 PM
Description: Wild goalie Josh Harding will start Game 5 against the Blackhawks Thursday night.
Insight: Harding suffered a lower-body injury on a collision with Jonathan Toews in Game 4 and had to leave the game. He's playing due to the lower-body injury suffered by Niklas Backstrom during pre-game warmups for Game 1, so the Wild had to turn to third-string netminder Darcy Kuemper Tuesday. Minnesota trailed the series 3-1.
Pekka Rinne, G, NAS5/9/2013 6:18:00 PM
Description: Nashville goalie Pekka Rinne underwent hip surgery recently and will need four months to recover. SOURCE: The Tennessean
Insight: He's expected to be 100 percent for training camp, however. Rinne, one of the NHL's top workhorses, had an inconsistent season in which he went 15-16-8 with a 2.43 GAA and a .910 SV%. He tied for the NHL lead with five shutouts.
Carey Price, G, MON5/9/2013 11:26:00 AM
Description: Netminder Carey Price has been ruled out for the rest of Montreal's series against Ottawa.
Insight: Price suffered a lower body injury Tuesday in Game 4. Backup Peter Budaj will pick up the start in Game 5 Thursday in Montreal.
Tuukka Rask, G, BOS5/9/2013 9:27:00 AM
Description: Boston goalie Tuukka Rask recorded 45 saves Wednesday in a victory over Toronto.
Insight: Overall, Rask has turned away 137 of the 147 shots he's faced in the postseason. He'll be in net again Friday night in Game 5.
Tomas Vokoun, G, PIT5/8/2013 5:17:00 PM
Description: The Penguins will start Tomas Vokoun in net on Thursday in Game 5 against the Islanders.
Insight: He can't do any worse than Marc-Andre Fleury has done over the last three games. After shutting out New York in Game 1, Fleury has allowed 14 goals over the last three, including six in Game 4 Tuesday night.
Josh Harding, G, MIN5/7/2013 11:00:00 PM
Description: Wild goalie Josh Harding had to leave Game 3 Tuesday against the Blackhawks after colliding with Jonathan Toews.
Insight: Harding has an undisclosed injury. He already was playing in place of Niklas Backstrom, who suffered a lower-body injury during pre-game warmups for Game 1. The Wild had to turn to Darcy Kuemper, a rookie who just celebrated his 23rd birthday two days ago.
Carey Price, G, MON5/7/2013 10:57:00 PM
Description: Canadiens goalie Carey Price did not come out for overtime in Game 4 against the Senators Tuesday night due to an undisclosed injury.
Insight: Price made 30, but he allowed a game-tying goal to Cory Conacher at 19:37 in the third period, and Peter Budaj let in the game-winner at 2:32 in overtime as the Sens stole one to take a commanding 3-1 lead in the series.
