Holtby will be in the crease Tuesday against the Coyotes.

Analysis:

After yielding the net Sunday to backup Justin Peters, Holtby reenters the net with a 5-4-2 record, 2.41 GAA and .909 save percentage. While not spectacular numbers by any measure, they represent an improvement over what Holtby had provided at this stage last season. He'll have a good chance at lowering that GAA against a Coyotes squad that ranks in the bottom third of the league in goals per game.
