Filip Gustavsson - Starting TuesdayGustavsson will defend the road goal Tuesday against Calgary, per Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News.

ImpactGustavsson has won his past two outings, having stopped 49 of 51 shots. He has provided a 4-6-2 record this season with a 3.46 GAA and an .891 save percentage over 13 games played. The Flames rank 21st in the league this campaign with 2.96 goals per contest.

Dakota Mermis - Called up from minorsMermis was recalled from AHL Iowa on Monday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

ImpactMermis will flip places with forward Vinni Lettieri, who was sent down to the minors in a corresponding move. Mermis will serve as an emergency depth option after Zach Bogosian (upper body) suffered an upper-body injury that kept him out versus Chicago on Sunday. Barring another injury concern on the blue line, Mermis is unlikely to get onto the ice during the Wild's four-game road trip.

Brock Faber - Grabs two applesFaber picked up a pair of helpers against Chicago on Sunday.

ImpactFaber brought a four-game pointless streak to a close with his first multi-point effort of the 2023-24 campaign. The defenseman remains mired in a 21-game goal drought after failing to score since Opening Night against the Panthers. With 10 points in 21 games to open his rookie campaign, Faber should be capable of challenging for the 30-point threshold, making him a top-half fantasy producer.

Vinni Lettieri - Sent back to minorsLettieri was assigned to AHL Iowa on Sunday.

ImpactLettieri sat as a healthy scratch in Sunday's 4-1 win over Chicago prior to returning to the minors. In 13 NHL contests this campaign, he has registered two goals, one assist, 15 shots on net and 12 hits.

Mats Zuccarello - Three-point effort SundayZuccarello scored an even-strength goal and added two assists, one on the power play, in Sunday's 4-1 win over Chicago.

ImpactThe 36-year-old winger extended his point streak to nine games with the performance, a stretch in which Zuccarello has amassed three goals and 13 points. He's become a point-a-game player late in his career while skating alongside Kirill Kaprizov, and the addition of skilled rookie Marco Rossi to the unit under new bench boss John Hynes might even allow Zuccarello to find another gear.
