Nugent-Hopkins has returned to Edmonton to be re-evaluated but it sounds like he's going to miss approximately 2-to-3 weeks with an upper-body injury he suffered over the weekend. Brad Malone was called up from the AHL and will serve as a bottom-6 centre on Tuesday with Nugent-Hopkins unavailable.
Janmark will miss his second straight game on Tuesday but it sounds like he could miss even more time. Head coach Pete DeBoer said that Janmark "is not close to returning," which suggests he could miss the rest of the week at the very least.
Nugent-Hopkins suffered a shoulder injury on Saturday and will not play this week and could be out longer. The Oilers could not provide an exact timeline, so expect them to re-evaluate him and provide more details at a later date.
Janmark left in the third period of Friday's game in Arizona and did not return. Head coach Pete DeBoer did not have an update on Janmark post-game, so consider him questionable to play vs. Colorado until there is an update.
Murray was not in the lineup for the last three games but will replace Kurtis MacDermid in the lineup on Saturday afternoon. It's been a quiet, injury-filled season for the Murray, who has just four assists in 23 games.
Regula has spent most of the season with the Rockford IceHogs but will play Friday after sitting as a healthy scratch on Thursday. The 21-year-old defenseman will replace Erik Gustafsson in the lineup.
Dermott was a healthy scratch for the last two games but will play Thursday vs. the Penguins. Dermott will replace Timothy Liljegren, who was assigned to the Toronto Marlies (AHL) on Wednesday.
With Mikko Koskinen returning from the COVID-19 protocol list, Skinner goes back to the AHL. Skinner is coming off of his first career shutout and has gone 6-6-0 with a 2.62 GAA and .913 SV% with the Oilers this season.
Klingberg missed one game with an upper-body injury but returns for Tuesday's game in Colorado. The Stars' defenseman has tallied nine assists in his last eight games.
