Bertuzzi did not play in the third period of Thursday's win in Vegas and is questionable to play Saturday. After he left the game, Jonatan Berggren moved up into his place on the third line, so expect that to continue on Saturday with Adam Erne drawing in on the fourth line.

Knight has been out since January 8th, so he'll go to the AHL for conditioning. With Sergei Bobrovsky getting hurt on Thursday, Knight may have to shoulder the load for the Panthers moving forward. It's unclear if Knight will return to the NHL for Saturday's game or not.

Bertuzzi left the Red Wings' previous game vs. Vegas after just 11:22 TOI due to a lower-body injury and is questionable to play Saturday when Detroit takes on Philadelphia. Bertuzzi has been back for only six games since his previous long-term injury so he will be hoping this is nothing serious.

Donato was a healthy scratch for the Krakens' previous contest but will draw back into the lineup Thursday as he replaces Morgan Geekie on Seattle's fourth line. The 26-year-old has eight goals, five assists, 58 SOG, 23 PIMs and a +11 plus/minus through 33 games played so far this year.


Knight has a 9-7-3 record, 3.05 GAA and .906 SV% but will miss Tuesday's game vs. Colorado and has been placed on the injured reserve. He is considered day-to-day and Alex Lyon will backup the Panthers' net while Knight is on the mend.

Bertuzzi last played on Nov. 30th due to a hand injury but will return to the Red Wings' lineup Tuesday as they take on the Winnipeg Jets. The 27-year-old has one goal, three assists, 22 SOG and four PIMs through nine games so far this year. In his return, he will slot back in on the Red Wings' top line with Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond.

Donato has been a healthy scratch for the Kraken's last two games but will draw back into the lineup Monday as they take on Montreal. The 26-year-old has eight goals, five assists, 55 SOG, 18 PIMs and a +11 plus/minus through 32 games so far this season.

Knight allowed four goals on 34 shots (.882 SV%) for his third-straight loss in a defeat to Carolina in his last start. The 21-year-old has struggled as of late which has led to his 8-6-3 record, 3.00 GAA and .907 SV%. He faces the Arizona Coyotes, who rank last in the NHL in shots per game (24.8) but 26th in goals per game (2.89).

Anderson had a goal, four SOG and a -2 plus/minus through seven games while averaging only 9:11 TOI in a limited role with the Maple Leafs but will head back to the Marlies (AHL) for the second time this season. In 21 games with the Marlies previously he had 11 goals, eight assists, six PIMs and a +1 plus/minus.


Lafferty has three goals, five assists, 33 SOG, 13 PIMs and is a -7 plus/minus through 27 games but will be a game-time decision Thursday vs. St. Louis as he battles a non-Covid related illness.

Knight hasn't played since Dec. 6th due to illness but will draw the start Monday after a 13 day absence. The 21-year-old was playing very well prior to his unfortunate illness, taking majority of the Panthers' starts due to his 8-4-3 record, 2.64 GAA and .919 SV%. He draws a tough comeback start as he takes on the Boston Bruins, who are coming off a 4-2 win over Columbus and hold the leagues best record.

Soderblom will head back down to Rockford (AHL) after it was announced Monday that Alex Stalock will be returning to the Blackhawks from a concussion. The 23-year-old rookie struggled as he filled in for injuries for the last few months, with a 2-10-2 record, 3.45 GAA and .894 SV% in 15 games with Chicago.
