The Toronto Maple Leafs put a three-game losing streak behind them with a strong effort and try for their second straight victory when they host the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday. Toronto halted a 0-2-1 run with a 5-2 victory at Detroit on Saturday and, while the Maple Leafs appear to have the talent to win their first Stanley Cup since 1967, coach Mike Babcock knows that's not enough.

The Montreal Canadiens look to build off their best performance of the season when they host the road-weary Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday night for an Atlantic Division battle. Montreal managed one win in the first four games of the season and lost its home opener before scoring the final four goals in a 6-3 triumph over the reigning Stanley Cup champion St. Louis Blues on Saturday.

The Arizona Coyotes begin the week in last place in the Pacific Division with only three points through four games, but hope a win and an overtime loss in their past two games marks a turning point entering Tuesday’s contest at the Winnipeg Jets. Arizona scored once in two games before netting four in a win over Vegas and battling to a 3-2 overtime loss Saturday at Colorado as forward Conor Garland and center Nick Schmaltz each recorded two goals in the past two contests.

The goaltenders for the Philadelphia Flyers will begin a meaningful stretch of games in Alberta on Tuesday when Brian Elliott makes his season debut against his former team, the Calgary Flames. Carter Hart is expected to get the call for Wednesday's conclusion of a three-game trek in Edmonton, which is near where he grew up in Sherwood Park, Alberta.

The Vancouver Canucks stumbled out of the gates with a pair of road losses to Pacific Division rivals Edmonton and Calgary but responded by winning their next two games at home. The Canucks will look to complete a perfect three-game homestand but they will be without their starting netminder when the Detroit Red Wings pay a visit on Tuesday night.

Scoring goals has not been an issue for the revamped Nashville Predators, but an inability to slow the opposition has offset the offensive eruption. After allowing a season-worst goal total in a 7-4 loss at the Los Angeles Kings, the Predators look to get back on track when they resume their three-game road trip at the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night.

The Carolina Hurricanes saw their franchise-best, season-opening five-game winning streak come to a halt in the latter half of a back-to-back set of games over the weekend. The Hurricanes aim to avenge that setback on Tuesday when they begin a four-game road trip with the opener of another back-to-back set, beginning with a tilt against the Los Angeles Kings.
