7:00 pm ET game
NY Islanders @ NY Rangers
Likely NY Islanders starter: Dwayne Roloson - After going without a win since October, Rolo will attempt to win his fourth game in a row tonight. The question is: will anyone be there to see it? (Source.)

7:30 pm ET games
Boston @ Florida
Likely Boston starter: Tim Thomas (Source.)
Likely Florida starter: Scott Clemmensen - A rare start for the former backup of Martin Brodeur. (Source.)
Minnesota @ Columbus
Likely Minnesota starter: Jose Theodore (Source.)
Likely Columbus starter: Steve Mason - With Mathieu Garon being a little shaky lately, this is a good chance for Mason to win the starting job back. After all, Columbus wants him to win it back. (Source.)

Buffalo @ Calgary
Likely Buffalo starter: Ryan Miller (Source.)
Likely Calgary starter: Miikka Kiprusoff (Source.)
Detroit @ Colorado
