Peter Laviolette and Fisher both said there’s still no timetable for his return. Fisher had 42 points in 72 games with the Predators last season. He skated with the fourth line on Monday.
The Blackhawks will turn to Forsberg in the midst of a five-game losing streak. Forsberg has had his ups and downs of late, going 2-2 over his last four starts with a .923 SV%. He has a great opportunity to bring an end to the Blackhawks’ losing streak tonight against the Coyotes.
Caggiula did not play Saturday after being struck in the mouth by a puck Friday night in Anaheim. He has 12 points (7G/5A) in 41 games this season.
Seeler has 12 points (2G/10A) in 49 games with Iowa (AHL) this season. The Wild have not announced who will draw out of the lineup in favour of Seeler.
Murray hasn't played since November 27th. Travelling with the team gives him a chance of playing in one of the next two games, but for now he remains without a timetable for his return.
Milano has been sidelined for almost four weeks with a torn oblique muscle. Travelling with the team bodes well for his chances of playing in one of the next two games, but for now he remains without a timetable for his return.
Talbot last played Friday night when he gave up three goals on 34 shots in a losing effort to the Ducks. Talbot has continued to struggle lately, losing three of his last five starts with a .902 SV%. He’ll hope for a stronger outing tonight against the middling Panthers.
Condon allowed two goals on 30 shots after replacing Craig Anderson in the Senators loss in Toronto on Saturday. Condon has gone 2-7-2 with a 3.00 GAA and .913 SV% on the road this season. The 27-year-old netminder has struggled all season-long and will be in tough tonight in Pittsburgh—the Penguins have won six of their last eight (6-1-1) while averaging 4.25 goals for per game.
Dumont practiced Monday and skated with the fourth line. Guy Boucher is hopeful Dumont will return to the lineup Thursday. The Senators are expected to call up a forward for tomorrow night's game.
Vasilevskiy turned in another Vezina-worthy performance against the Kings on Saturday, stopping 44 of 47 shots en route to a 4-3 victory. He’s won four of his last five starts with a .918 SV% over that span. He draws a difficult matchup tonight against the Maple Leafs in what should be a high-scoring affair.
Thompson returned to practice Monday but has yet to be cleared to play. He's getting closer but remains without a timetable for his return.

Danault has been cleared to practice and was skating with the top line Monday morning. Claude Julien said Danault could possibly return later in the road trip, but he remains without a definite timetable.
The Leafs currently do not have an open roster spot for Soshnikov, which explains the delay in removing him from injured reserve. Once he is cleared they will be forced to either make a spot for him or risk losing him on waivers.
Weber recently began skating on his own, but is yet to return to practice. He has been out since December 16th and remains without a timetable for his return.
Shaw has 19 points (10G/9A) in 43 games this season. He has been out since January 13th with a lower-body injury and has yet to return to practice. It seems unlikely he will return before the end of the Habs' four-game road trip.
The 28-year old Sceviour has just 14 points in 46 games with the Panthers this season, but is second on the team in shorthanded ice time (111:45).
Andersen stopped 22 of 25 shots in a winning effort against the Senators on Saturday. He’s been one of the hottest goalies in the league of late, winning five of his last six starts with a .932 SV% over that span. He draws a tough matchup tonight against the league’s highest scoring team.

Head coach John Hynes did not have an update on Boyle’s status postgame, so the fourth line centre should be considered questionable for Tuesday’s game in Philadelphia. Monitor Boyle’s status over the next 24 hours.
