The new deal will keep Nurse in Edmonton through the 2022 season. Nurse has scored four goals with 20 assists (24 points) in 55 games this season.
Bobrovsky allowed three goals on 22 shots in the Panthers' 3-2 loss in Philadelphia on Saturday. Bobrovsky has lost three in a row while giving up 10 goals on 96 shots (.896 SV%) but tonight he faces a Flyers team that he's had a lot of success against in his career. Since leaving the Flyers, Bob is 15-3-1 with a 2.13 GAA and .928 SV% in 19 career starts against them.
Wilde was a second-round pick in 2018 (No.41 overall) and has collected just two assists in his first 20 AHL games. He'll finish out the year with Saginaw, where he was second on the team in points with 70 (19G / 51A) in 62 games last year.
John Tavares (illness), Zach Hyman (bumps and bruises) and Kyle Clifford (personal) were all absent from practice on Monday which is why Aberg was recalled. The 26-year-old has scored 16 goals with 22 assists (38 points) in 43 AHL games this season.
Fabbri left Sunday's game vs. the Bruins after being hit by Chris Wagner and did not return. Head coach Jeff Blashill clarified that Fabbri is dealing with a jaw injury and is questionable to play Tuesday in Buffalo. Luckily for the Red Wings, they will be getting Anthony Mantha back.
McElhinney stopped all 30 shots that he faced in the Lightning's shutout win in San Jose on February 1st. McElhinney has gone 3-2-0 with a 1.83 GAA, .925 SV% and one shutout in his last five starts. Tonight he'll face his former team in Columbus, who will be without seven members of their regular lineup. Still, they've been banged up seemingly all season and come in having won nine of their last 11 (9-1-1).
Stamkos did not come out for the Lightning's morning skate and will not play tonight in Columbus. Stamkos is day-to-day with a lower-body injury, so Mathieu Joseph was recalled from Syracuse (AHL) and will draw into the lineup. Ondrej Palat will move to the top-line with Brayden Point and Nikita Kucherov.
Mantha suffered a couple of injuries, including a punctured lung, back on December 21st but will be back in the lineup in Buffalo. At this time, there's no word on who Mantha will replace in the lineup.
Greiss allowed three goals on 25 shots in the Islanders win over the Kings on Thursday. In his last six starts, Greiss has gone 4-0-2 with a 2.38 GAA and .923 SV% and on Monday he'll face the Capitals for the first time this season. Washington has surprisingly lost three of their last four home games but averaged 3.25 goals for in those games.
The Capitals have been rotating a defenseman in and out of the lineup since Martin Fehervary joined the team. Tonight Nick Jensen will draw back in with Radko Gudas sitting for the first time all season.
Jensen was a healthy scratch on Saturday but will replace Radko Gudas in the lineup tonight vs. the Islanders. Jensen has had very little success offensively this season, posting four assists in 54 games.
Byron has been out since mid-November but it looks like he could get back into the lineup at some point this week. He will travel to Boston and Pittsburgh and could make his return either Tuesday or Thursday.
Gostisbehere missed the Flyers morning skate and will not play vs. the Panthers on Monday. Head coach Alain Vigneault said that Gostisbehere is dealing with some knee pain, so consider him day-to-day.
Farabee, who will miss his third straight game, skated in the morning skate on Monday but will get one more day off. Head coach Alain Vigneault expects him to be back in the lineup tomorrow against the Islanders.
With Carter Hart ready to return to the Flyers net on Monday, Lyon returns to the AHL, where he has gone 9-13-2 with a 2.59 GAA and .916 SV% this season. During his time with Philly, the 27-year-old was 1-1-0 while allowing eight goals on 73 shots (.890 SV%).
Hart has missed the last nine games with an abdominal injury but will start Monday vs. the Panthers. Tonight he returns to the crease in Wells Fargo Center, where he is 13-2-2 with a 1.69 GAA and .940 SV% this season. Tonight he'll face a Panthers team that is on a three-game losing streak and 13-9-4 on the road this season.
Price allowed one goal on 23 shots in the Canadiens overtime win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday. Price has won two straight and four of his last five starts while posting a stellar 1.40 GAA, .949 SV% and one shutout. Tonight he'll look to stay hot vs. a Coyotes team that has lost 10 of their last 12 games (2-7-3) while averaging just 2.25 goals per game.
Weber will not play Monday vs. the Coyotes, won't travel on their brief two-game road trip (@BOS and @PIT) and is doubtful to play vs. the Stars when they return home on Saturday. So far, so good without Weber though, the Habs have gone 2-0 with two OT victories without their captain.
With Cam Atkinson out, Foudy will make his debut on the wing on Monday. Head coach John Tortorella said they skipped the AHL and recalled Foudy from the OHL because "they needed offensive skill and speed that Foudy possesses." The 20-year-old forward has scored 20 goals with 23 assists (43 points) in 32 games with London this season.
There no word what kind of injury Atkinson is dealing with but it will leave the Blue Jackets without seven regular skaters tonight vs. the Lightning. Liam Foudy has come up from the London Knights (OHL) to take Atkinson's spot in the lineup. Consider him day-to-day until the Blue Jackets release a more detailed injury report.
