Riley Tufte - Elevated from minors Tufte was recalled from AHL Utica on Monday.

Impact Tufte has yet to get into an NHL game this season, but he could be pressed into service versus the Jets on Tuesday if the team doesn't want to deploy seven blueliners. The 2016 first-round pick hasn't been particularly productive in the minors, garnering two assists in nine games with the Comets, so fantasy managers probably shouldn't be expecting much out of him even if he does play Tuesday.

Through 18 appearances, Hischier has eight goals, five assist, seven power-play points, 42 shots on net and a plus-4 rating. He's not quite at his best early in the campaign, but as a strong two-way center, he won't lose his top-six assignment.

Impact Meier had gone nine games without a goal entering Sunday before scoring the Devils' first two in this win. He had 19 PIM, 35 shots on net, 17 hits and one assist during the slump. While his offense was cold, Meier never lost top-six duties, though his power-play time is down. He's at three goals, four helpers, 70 shots on net, 35 hits, 27 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 18 appearances. Given that his shot volume is still strong, he should be able to get his offense back on track.

Connor Hellebuyck - Earns first shutout of season Hellebuyck recorded a 23-save shutout in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Hellebuyck got a day off Saturday and bounced back with his first shutout as a Devil. The 33-year-old netminder has won all five of his starts with his new team, adding a 1.96 GAA and a .913 save percentage. After Sunday's win, general manager Sunny Mehta announced Hellebuyck would not play Tuesday in Winnipeg, avoiding a matchup versus his former team. With that news, expect Jake Allen to play Tuesday while Hellebuyck returns to the crease Thursday versus the Capitals in the first half of a home-and-home set.
