Curtis McElhinney - G - Blue Jackets

Curtis McElhinney has been traded from Phoenix to Columbus as part of the deal for forward Antoine Vermette.

He has appeared in two games this season while up from the minors with the Coyotes. McElhiney owns a career record of 19-26-4, but he can be a serviceable backup if given the opportunity. However, he won't get that chance this season after he had abdominal surgery in January.

Anton Babchuk - D - Flames

Anton Babchuk is likely to return to the fold for Calgary on Thursday after the Flames lost Chris Butler to injury on Tuesday night.

He has been a healthy scratch for the past 13 games, but with Butler and Derek Smith out he'll get an opportunity to play again as an injury replacement. Babchuk has five assists in 17 appearances this season.

Tomas Vokoun - G - Capitals

Tomas Vokoun will start in Washington's crease in Ottawa on Wednesday.

He lasted just over five minutes on Monday against Carolina after allowing two goals on seven shots, so he'll be looking for a rebound performance. Vokoun owns a 23-15-2 record with a .920 save percentage and a 2.45 GAA.

Keith Aucoin - W - Capitals

Keith Aucoin has been recalled by Washington.

The 33-year-old has skated in five games with the Capitals this season. He will probably be replacing Alex Ovechkin, who is questionable to play on Wednesday due to a lower-body injury, in the lineup should the talented winger be unavailable to dress.

Alex Ovechkin - W - Capitals

Alex Ovechkin is considered questionable to play on Wednesday because of a lower-body injury.

He didn't make it out for the start of Washington's morning skate and spent roughly eight minutes on the ice before leaving for the dressing room. "I don't feel pretty good right now," said Ovechkin. "We'll see how it goes before the game." The Capitals winger is being labeled as a game-time decision to face the Ottawa Senators.

Craig Anderson - G - Senators

Craig Anderson will get the nod for Ottawa on Wednesday night against Washington.

No surprise there as he posted a 26-save shutout versus the New York Islanders on Monday. Anderson has won his past three starts for the Senators, while earning two goose eggs and surrendering just two goals.

He didn't participate in Wednesday's skate after he took to the ice for Monday's session. LaRose has missed the Hurricanes' last three games with the ailment.
