Wood's initial prognosis after he suffered an upper-body injury was for a 7-10 day recovery period, which likely hasn't changed after being placed on Injured Reserve. In 10 games this season, Wood has one goal, a -2 plus/minus, and is averaging 13:40 time-on-ice.
Ersson played only 7:36 time-on-ice, exiting in the first period of Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Boston Bruins with a lower-body injury. The Flyers' crease will likely be shared by Aleksei Kolosov and Ivan Fedotov in Ersson's absence. Ersson was riding a three-game winning streak before his injury, saving 74 of his last 80 shots faced (.925 SV%).
Point played just 3:47 before leaving Sunday's loss in Winnipeg with a lower-body injury. Lucky for fantasy owners, Point scored before leaving, giving him goals in four of his last five games. The team did not have an update on his status post-game but his absence would be a critical loss for the Lightning. Consider him questionable to play Tuesday in St. Louis until the team provides an update.
Broberg left Saturday's game with an apparent leg injury after getting tangled up with Mitch Marner along the boards. Broberg went down awkwardly and there is concern that he's going to miss an extended period of time based on the Blues post-game comments. It would be a terrible break for Broberg, who has emerged as one of the Blues' top defensemen after being signed to an offer sheet this offseason.
