Q&A: Projected Lineups and Starting Goalies
What are NHL projected lineups?
They are the latest expected player combinations, starting-goaltender decisions and special-teams units available before puck drop.
What does a green goalie marker mean?
Green means the starting goaltender was explicitly confirmed when IceHockeyMan captured the lineup snapshot.
What does a yellow goalie marker mean?
Yellow means High Confidence: the goaltender was listed as expected but can still change before the game.
Why are power-play units included?
PP1 and PP2 show the current special-teams hierarchy and the players expected to receive power-play usage.
Can the lineup change after publication?
Yes. Warm-ups, late scratches and coaching decisions can alter the final lineup before faceoff.
Why does IHM show unavailable players?
The list gives readers immediate context about absences that may affect projected units and special-teams roles.
IHM Status Guide
🟢Green – Confirmed: the starting goaltender was explicitly confirmed at the time of the IHM snapshot.
