Brossoit surrendered five goals (one from his own team) on 35 shots in the Oilers 6-4 loss to the Maple Leafs on Thursday.

Brossoit is 0-2-1 with a 2.53 GAA and .914 SV% on the road this season but does have a win in the Scotiabank Saddledome in his young career.
Weber has missed the last six games with a lower-body injury, but took part in today’s morning skate and it looks like he will play tonight vs. the Red Wings.

Monitor his status during pre-game warmups, but it looks like the hulking defenseman will play tonight. He has 13 points (4G / 9A) in 20 games this season.
