According to Nick Kypreos, Weber's season is likely over and his future is in question. The injury is reportedly related to his foot that was surgically repaired in 2018 and could require further surgery.
Grundstrom, 22, appeared in four straight games with the Kings but will switch spots with Martin Frk. During his time in the AHL, Grundstrom has picked up nine goals and 11 assists (20 points) in 30 games.
Frk, who won the hardest shot competition in the AHL, has scored 23 goals with 13 assists (36 points) in 37 AHL games this season. Scoring in the AHL has never been his issue, but he has just 15 goals and 19 assists (34 points) in 104 career NHL games.
With Casey Cizikas out for 3-to-4 weeks with a leg laceration, Bardreau returns to the NHL, where he has two points (1G / 1A) in nine career games. The 26-year-old has two goals and one assist in 29 AHL games this season.
Engvall has made a splash in his first NHL season, scoring seven goals with seven assists (14 points) in 35 games. The former seventh-round pick was over a point-per-game during his time in AHL this season and his two-year extension suggests that he's in Toronto's bottom-6 plans for 2021.
Cizikas suffered a cut on his leg in Tuesday's win over the Flyers and will miss at least three weeks. This is a huge blow for the Islanders, Cizikas often serves as a shutdown centre and is one of their top penalty killers. Cole Bardreau was recalled to take his spot on the roster.
Kuznetsov, who was hurt on Monday, missed Wednesday's practice and will not play on Thursday. Kuznetsov's injury isn't serious, so he'll travel on their three-game road trip and could play at some point on the trip.
Danault was forced to leave Monday's game after a shot deflected into his face but he was on the ice for today's morning skate and is expected to play against the Bruins. Danault has 10 points (2G / 8A) in his last 14 games.
Price gave up three goals on 34 shots in the Canadiens loss to the Coyotes on Monday. The loss snapped a brief two-game winning streak for Price, who has had a tough time with the Bruins this season. In three meetings, he's 1-2-0 while allowing a combined 12 goals on 70 shots (.829 SV%).
Atkinson has already missed time with a sprained ankle this season. He missed just over two weeks in late-December/early-January and will now likely be sidelined through the rest of February. Liam Foudy is up with the team replacing Atkinson, but his stay is expected to be a short one.
Rask allowed two goals on 19 shots in the Bruins loss in Detroit on Sunday. Rask was not scheduled to start but replaced Jaroslav Halak, who was hurt in warmups. Rask is a stellar 12-0-6 with a 2.07 GAA and .930 SV% on home ice this season and is 1-1-0 while stopping 54 of 60 shots (.900 SV%) in two games vs. the Canadiens.
Nordstrom missed the last four games with an allergy-related issue but is set to return tonight vs. the Canadiens. Nordstrom has seven points (4G / 3A) in 39 games this season and is not a fantasy option on the Bruins fourth line.
Head coach Barry Trotz did not have an update on Cizikas' status post-game but the injury puts him in jeopard of missing Thursday's game in Nashville. Expect an update after the Islanders travel to Nashville.
Kucherov got tangled up with Jack Johnson late in the second period and limped to the bench and down the tunnel. Kucherov did not return for the third period and head coach Jon Cooper did not have an update post-game. Consider Kucherov day-to-day with a lower-body injury until they release more information.
Cirelli blocked a shot from Evgeni Malkin on a late-first-period penalty kill and never returned. head coach Jon Cooper did not have an update post-game, so consider Cirelli day-to-day with a lower-body injury until they release more information.
Perlini was lucky to avoid serious damage as he escaped with a bruised orbital bone and stitches around his nose. Perlini's eyes were completely unharmed after being cut by Henri Jokiharju's skate. Perlini travelled with the team to New Jersey, where the Red Wings play Thursday.
Bouwmeester collapsed on the bench during a TV timeout in the first period of Tuesday's game in Anaheim. Bouwmeester was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was "conscious and alert." Bouwmeester will undergo further testing and the Blues are expected to release an update this morning. The Ducks-Blues came was postponed and will be made up at a later date.
Grubauer allowed one goal on 32 shots in Colorado's win in Columbus on Saturday. Grubauer has won three straight while posting a 1.00 GAA and .963 SV%, including a win over the Senators, who he'll face again tonight. He's an obvious tonight and comes in at 8-5-2 with a 8-5-2 with a 2.87 GAA and .906 SV% on home ice.
Hogberg stopped 11 of 12 shots after replacing Craig Anderson in the Senators loss in Winnipeg on Saturday afternoon. Hogberg continues to face a heavy workload each night and has gone 0-2-2 with a 3.14 GAA and .914 SV% in his last four starts. One of those starts was vs. the Avalanche, who he'll face again tonight--he allowed four goals on 34 shots in a 4-1 loss in Ottawa last Thursday.
