Weber is reportedly day-to-day with a lower-body injury, but this smells like rest for Weber, who missed three games late in March with a lower-body injury. Weber had no points but 15 shots on goal in three games since returning from that injury.

Brossoit had a sensational NHL debut, stopping 49 of 51 shots in the Oilers 2-1 loss to the Sharks last night. Brossoit will head back to the AHL where he will resume his spot as the Barons starting net minder.

Brossoit, 22, had a tough time in a brief AHL stint last season, but came into 2014-15 much stronger. He went 22-21-4 with a 2.65 GAA and .916 SV% in 49 games with Oklahoma City, which prompted the Oilers to recall him and let him make his NHL debut in a meaningless game against the Sharks.

Brossoit, 22, has gone 22-21-4 with a 2.65 GAA and .916 SV% in 49 games with the Oklahoma City Barons this season. The 2011 sixth-round pick ( 164th overall) has enjoyed some success in his first full AHL season and will make his NHL debut on Thursday.

Burakovsky has 22 points (9G / 13A) in 50 games with the Capitals this season. While in Hershey he has collected three goals and four assists in 13 games.

Weber has missed the last two games with a lower-body injury and it looks like he will miss his third consecutive game tonight vs. the Canucks.

Weber will miss his second straight game with a lower-body injury. He will once again be replaced by Anton Volchekov and is listed as day-to-day. Monitor his status leading up to Tuesday’s game vs. the Canucks.

Weber will be held out of this afternoon’s game because of a lower-body injury. He will be replaced by Anton Volchekov. Consider Weber as day-to-day.

Burakovsky was sent down because of cap reasons in order for the Capitals to recall Philipp Grubauer. Chris Conner has also been recalled to fill the hole left by Burakovsky going down.

Burakovsky is expected to be back in the Capitals lineup on Friday. The young centre has nine goals and 12 assists (21 points) in 49 games this season.

Foligno was scratched from Tuesday’s game because of flu-like symptoms and was replaced by Luke Adam. There was no word of any ailment prior to pre-game warmups, he even took part in the Blue Jackets morning skate. Monitor his status prior to Thursday’s game in Detroit.

Burakovsky was a healthy scratch last night, so the Capitals have assigned him to Hershey so he can play tonight. Expect him to be recalled again soon.

Teravainen was a healthy scratch on Friday, but head coach Joel Quenneville wants to shake his lineup up on Sunday, which means Teravainen in and Bryan Bickell likely out. Teravainen was centring the second line with Antoine Vermette and Brandon Saad as well as playing on the Hawks second power-play unit.

Burakovsky was sent down to make him eligible for the AHL playoffs. He has registered nine goals and 12 assists (21 points) in 48 games with the Capitals this season.

The Capitals acquired Curtis Glencross from the Flames, so it looks like they will move him to the AHL on paper, but he will likely become the Capitals first of four post-deadline recalls.

Burakovsky was a healthy scratch on Sunday, but will be back in the lineup tonight vs. Pittsburgh. He played a career-high 18:10 TOI in his last game, so he could be in line for big minutes again tonight. His first-line status certainly makes him an intriguing one-day fantasy option.

After losing Patrick Kane for what could be the remainder of the season, the Hawks made their first move to try and replace that hole, by recalling Teravainen. The 20-year-old has two goals and two assists in 15 games with the Blackhawks this season. While in Rockford, he has 25 points (6G / 19A) in 39 games.

Burakovsky was in warmups, but ended up being a heathy scratch with Michael Latta returning to the lineup. Burakovsky had recorded two goals, a plus-4 rating and 10 shots in his previous four games.
