Faulk left Sunday's contest after playing just 1:46. The Hurricanes ruled out a concussion, but whatever the injury, Faulk will miss the next week and a half (roughly 5 games). Mike Komisarek will slide into the Hurricanes lineup while Faulk is sidelined.
Kindl has missed the last four games with a knee injury and will likely miss all four games this week.
Add Cleary to the growing list of injured Red Wings. He has not played in the last seven games, but was believed to be a healthy scratch. Cleary has eight points (4G / 4A) in 52 games this season.
Drewiske underwent offseason shoulder surgery and has not suited up this season. He will go down to Hamilton to get back into game shape in an attempt to be recalled by the Canadiens.
Berra stopped 21 of 22 shots in a OT win over the Oilers on Saturday. Berra was able to out-duel Ben Scrivens and walk away victorious in the 'Battle of Alberta'. Tonight, he will face the Wild, who he is 1-1-0 with a 4.58 GAA and .805 SV% against this season.
Quick stopped 24 of 25 shots in a 3-1 win over the Hurricanes on Saturday. He has been excellent in two starts since returning from the Olympics. In wins over the Canes and Flames he has posted a 0.50 GAA and .980 SV% with one shutout. Tonight he will get the call against the Habs who are 2-0-1 since the Olympic break.
Gudas left Sunday's loss to the Avalanche favouring his leg after a second period hit. He is expected to be re-evaluated in the next few days, but will likely miss at least Tuesday's contest.
After a spectacular performance in the Olympics, Gudlevskis did not get into a game with the Lightning during Anders Lindback's conditioning stint. He returns to the AHL where he is 11-8-2 with 2.69 GAA and .900 SV%.
Lindback has not played a game since January 30 because of an ankle injury. He was in Syracuse on a conditioning stint, but has been activated from IR and will reclaim his spot as Ben Bishop's backup.
Belov suffered a partially torn oblique muscle and will miss at least two weeks. Belov missed Saturday's meeting with the Flames and will be sidelined until mid-March at the very least.
Hanzal suffered a lower-body injury in Sunday's loss to the St. Louis Blues. He will continue to get treatment prior to tomorrow's game, but monitor his status throughout the day. Hanzal has 15 goals and 22 assists (37 points) in 55 games this season.
Howard allowed one goal on 20 shots in a 2-1 OT win over the Canadiens last Wednesday. The Red Wings continue to deal with a ton of injuries and will need Howie to be exceptional for them down the stretch. He draws a strong matchup tonight, but the Wings will be without Datsyuk and Zetterberg among others.
Sedin was injured following a hit by Senators defenseman Marc Methot on Sunday. The Canucks have had a rough time this season and the absence of Sedin will only further their goal scoring woes.
“He’ll take warm-ups," said head coach Lindy Ruff. "We’re still hopeful that he may be able to go for us, but that’s going to be a game-time decision.” So there is a chance he can play, and they can certainly use him. The 6-4 defenseman leads the team in hits with 128 and is second in blocked shots (behind Alex Goligoski) at 111. Dillon is second on the team in time on ice at 21:25 per game, third in defenseman scoring with 14 points and first in goals by a defenseman at six.
Lehtonen allowed four goals on 21 shots in a 4-2 loss to the Lightning on Saturday. Despite outshooting Tampa Bay 41-21, the Stars were unable to get two points. Lehtonen will look to bounce back tonight as he draws a great matchup vs. the Sabres. Lehtonen is 1-1-0 with a 2.56 GAA and .902 SV% since getting back from Sochi.
Budaj allowed three goals on 25 shots in a OT win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday. He is now 2-0-1 with a3.12 GAA and .885 SV% since becoming the Habs temporary starter with Carey Price battling a lower-body injury. Budaj enters play tonight in Los Angeles with a 7-3-1 record, 2.14 GAA and .923 SV% on the road this season.
Weiss who was nearing a return will not play tomorrow and likely won't be back for sometime if this setback is serious. Expect an update in the next 24 hours.
Datsyuk continues to battle a knee ailment. He was kept off of the ice all weekend to rest his knee, but it was not enough. Monitor his status prior to Thursday's game vs. the Avalanche.
Rinne will make his first NHL start since October 22 when he takes on the Penguins Tuesday. He coasted to two victories during his conditioning stint with Milwaukee (AHL), but he gets a tough test right out of the gate with the Penguins in town. Before getting hurt, Rinne was 4-4-1 with a 2.31 GAA and .917 SV%, pretty close to his career numbers and likely what you can expect out of him over the next 21 games. However, be cautious with tonight's matchup.
