Status report
Shesterkin starting instead of Halak will be the only change in the Rangers' lineup following a 6-2 win at the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday. … Silovs will make his NHL debut after he was recalled from Abbotsford of the American Hockey League on Tuesday; goalie Spencer Martin was reassigned to Abbotsford. ... Demko, the Canucks' No. 1 goalie who has missed 30 games, is expected to dress as the backup against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday and could return at the Nashville Predators on Tuesday. … Podkolzin and Di Giuseppe each moved up a line, with Boeser moving down to the third line.
