Niemi will be between the pipes in Tuesday's game against the Senators, NHL.com's Mark Stepneski reports.
Analysis:
Niemi was perfect in his last outing Saturday against Buffalo, stopping all 22 shots he faced en route to a 3-0 victory, his second shutout of the season. Ottawa is a far tougher opponent, however, as the Senators have averaged 2.90 goals scored per game this season, seventh best in the NHL.
