Buchnevich, who was recently in COVID-19 protocol, was not eligible to travel to Vancouver for Sunday's game vs. the Canucks. Expect Logan Brown to replace him on a line with Vladimir Tarasenko and Ivan Barbashev.

Bennett missed Friday's game in Vancouver but will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game in Vancouver. Monitor his status as the Panthers hit the ice for warmups at 8:30 PM ET.







Kempe missed three games while in COVID-19 protocol but is expected to play Sunday in New Jersey. Kempe, who has 24 points (17G / 7A) in 38 games, should be back on the Kings' top line.

Chytil played just 4:08 TOI on Saturday before leaving the game with a lower-body injury and not returning. The rangers did not provide much of an update on Chytils' status but called him "day-to-day," which makes him questionable for Monday's game vs. the Kings.

With Aston-Reese unavailable vs. Winnipeg, look for Brian Boyle to replace him in the Penguins' bottom-6.

Domingue saw some playing time while Casey DeSmith was in COVID-19 protocol but was hurt in practice on Thursday. With DeSmith back now, Domingue was likely headed to the taxi squad/AHL anyway, but now he'll remain with the Penguins and rehab his injury.





Sillinger missed three games while in COVID-19 protocol but will likely be available for Sunday's game vs. the Senators. Sillinger has tallied six goals and seven assists (13 points) in his first 35 career NHL games.

Gavrikov missed two games while in COVID-19 protocol but will likely be available for Sunday's game vs. the Senators. Gavrikov has scored two goals with 15 assists (17 points), 58 blocked shots and 61 hits in 36 games this season.
