Shore was originally a second-round pick of the Panthers in 2009 and has been in Switzerland and Russia since 2018. The 30-year old will make his Hurricanes debut, replacing Max McCormick on Sunday. Shore has 26 points (9G / 17A) in 94 career NHL games.
McCormick suffered an upper-body injury early in Saturday's win over the Stars and will come out of the lineup for Sunday's rematch. With McCormick coming out, Drew Shore will make his season debut.
Mrazek was forced to leave Saturday's game vs. the Stars with an upper-body injury and will not be available for Sunday's rematch. Mrazek will undergo an MRI and will be re-evaluated on Monday, so expect a more detailed update on his status to come early next week. James Reimer will start Sunday.
Bertuzzi was forced to leave Saturday's overtime loss with an upper-body injury and his status for Sunday's game is up in the air. With Bertuzzi hurt, Givani Smith was recalled from the taxi squad and would replace him if he's unavailable.
Stepan missed Thursday's game in Vancouver with an undisclosed injury but is expected to replace Filip Chlapik in the lineup on Sunday. Stepan has one goal, one assist and a minus-6 rating in seven games with the Senators.
Zub came over from the KHL this offseason after scoring 13 goals with nine assists (22 points) in 57 games with St. Petersburg SKA. The 25-year-old undrafted free agent is expected to replace Thomas Chabot, who is doubtful with an undisclosed injury.
Chabot missed Saturday's practice after leaving Thursday's game in Vancouver early. Head coach DJ Smith said that "for now [Chabot] is going to be out for tonight," so consider him a game-time decision but it would be surprising if he plays.
It looks like Mikhail Maltsev will make his NHL debut on Sunday, replacing Palmieri in the lineup. The Devils did not mention any injury news, so Palmieri may be a healthy scratch.
Maltsev was a fourth-round pick in 2016 and had 21 points (11G / 10A) in 49 AHL games a season ago. The 22-year-old is expected to skate with Pavel Zacha and Nikita Gusev in his debut.
Boqvist will replace Nick Merkely, who was sent the other way. Boqvist did not record a point while playing 14:06 ATOI in his first four games of the season.
Thompson started Saturday's game on the first line with Jack Eichel but was quickly bumped down the lineup. With Thompson coming out, Casey Mittelstadt was promoted from the taxi squad and will draw into the lineup on Sunday.
