DeSmith will be in the road crease versus Seattle on Monday.
It will be just the fifth appearance of the season for DeSmith, who is 0-3-1 with a disappointing 4.32 GAA in those contests. With the recent run of form of Tristan Jarry, the 30-year-old DeSmith will likely continue to see infrequent starts, though an upcoming back-to-back Friday and Saturday verses the Capitals and Ducks, respectively, figures to give DeSmith another start right away.
