Varlamov will tend the twine Tuesday against the Canucks.

Analysis:

Varlamov took the loss in his last outing, giving up four goals on 39 shots against the Jets. The 27-year-old Russian netminder has compiled a 19-13-3 record this season with a .917 save percentage and 2.64 GAA. He will face a Vancouver squad that is currently on a four-game losing streak. The Canucks have potted an average of just 2.31 goals per game this season, the fifth-lowest rate in the league, so this is a decent matchup at home for Varlamov.
