Jarnkrok was a late scratch from Game 2 due to a non-COVID illness but will play in Game 3 in Nashville. Jarnkork is expected to replace Brad Richardson in the lineup.
Eller missed Game 3 after suffering a lower-body injury in Game 2. Eller was on the ice for Friday's game-day skate, centring the third line and seeing PP2 time. Both are good signs that he will be available for Game 4 but he is officially listed as a game-time decision again.
Tavares had to be stretchered off of the ice after taking an incidental Corey Perry knee to the head.

Tavares is out indefinitely and likely won't be seen again during the first round.
