Lehtonen will be between the pipes in Tuesday's game against the Wild, Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News reports.

Analysis:

Lehtonen replaced Antti Niemi in goal for the final two periods of Saturday's game against Chicago, surrendering two goals on just 15 shots en route to a 5-1 defeat. The former first-round pick has been decent in limited action this season, posting a 13-5-0 record with a 2.82 GAA and .907 save percentage in 23 appearances. He'll look to pick up his 14th win of the season Tuesday in a favorable matchup with a slumping Minnesota club that has lost 10 of its last 11 games.
