It's unclear what is ailing Stone but he is listed as a game-time decision for Friday's game in Arizona. Monitor his status as the Golden Knights hit the ice for warmups at 9:00 PM ET.




This is a tough break for Getzlaf, who was having a resurgent season on the Ducks' top line. He's listed as week-to-week, so he definitely won't play Friday in Calgary.

Murphy left Thursday's game after being hit by Alex Ovechkin and did not return. Murphy suffered a concussion on the play and is in concussion protocol, which likely rules him out of the Blackhawks' back-to-back over the weekend.

Johnson had ADR disc replacement surgery, the same surgery as Jack Eichel had. Johnson is expected to miss approximately three months, which means we won't see him until early-March.

Farabee left in the first period Thursday's game in New York due to an upper-body injury and did not return. The Flyers announced Friday that Farabee is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks. Max Willman will likely remain with the Flyers while Farabee is out.


Galchenyuk was a healthy scratch in Minnesota but will replace Johan Larsson (lower-body) in the lineup on Friday. Galchenyuk has picked up two assists in nine games this season.

Larson returned to the lineup on Tuesday after a seven-game absence but was hurt again. Larsson is considered day-to-day for now but is undergoing further evaluation to determine the extent of his injury. Alex Galchenyuk will replace him in the lineup.
