The Sabres promoted Jack Quinn to their taxi squad.

Quinn was the No.8 overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft and could make his NHL debut on Tuesday. Quinn was on the ice for Monday's practice, skating with Dylan Cozens and Vinnie Hinostroza. The 20-year-old winger has 12 goals and 14 assists (26 points) in 20 AHL games this season.

Raanta (upper-body) is not expected to be out long-term but is "not quite day-to-day either."

The Hurricanes provided a very murky update on Raanta's upper-body injury. He's more than day-to-day but isn't expected to be out long-term. The Hurricanes will move forward with a goaltending duo of Frederik Andersen and Alex Lyon.

McAvoy (lower-body) is expected to be back in the Bruins lineup on Monday.

McAvoy missed the last two games with a lower-body injury but is expected to replace Urho Vaakanainen in the lineup on Monday. McAvoy, who has 20 points (5G / 15A) in 28 games this season, will be back on the top pairing and PP1 in Washington.

Oshie (illness) is expected to be back in the Capitals lineup on Monday.

Oshie has missed the last three games with a non-COVID illness but both he and Nicklas Backstrom are expected to be back in the lineup on Monday. Oshie, who is expected to skate on the top line with Evgeny Kuznetsov and Alex Ovechkin, has 12 points (4G / 8A) in 16 games this season.

Foligno (lower-body) is doubtful to play Monday in Washington.

Foligno played just 4:50 TOI before leaving Saturday's game in Tampa with a lower-body injury. The Bruins have yet to provide any timeline on Foligno's return, but he's not expected to play Monday in Washington. Jake DeBrusk may be activated from the COVID-19 protocol list to replace Foligno in the Bruins' bottom-6.
