If Harding is healthy enough to play he will rejoin the team in St. Louis for their game tomorrow. If he can't go, Darcy Kuemper will be back to back-up Niklas Backstrom. Harding was supposed to start Saturday afternoon, but suffered a lower-body injury after stepping on a puck in warm-ups.
Melchiori did not appear in a game with the Jets, he goes back to St. John's where he has four assists in 14 games with a plus-2 rating.
Olsen was acquired from the Chicago Blackhawks in the Kris Versteeg trade. He had eight assists in 16 games with Chicago's AHL affiliate (Rockford), since coming to San Antonio he has one goal and a minus-1 rating in three games.
Weaver has been battling and undisclosed illness for the last week and it will keep him out in the near future as well. In the mean time the recently acquired Dylan Olsen has been recalled from San Antonio.
Yonkman, 33, is a journeyman defenceman who has three assists in 18 games with Norfolk. He is not fantasy relevant.
Sbisa was believed to be injured in a first-period fight with Radko Gudas on Friday. He finished the game, but was reportedly unable to untie his skates after the game. He obviously missed Saturday's game and Sami Vatanen stepped in. This is a tough break for Sbisa who missed the first 15 games of the season with a sprained ankle. The Ducks have recalled Nolan Yonkman and placed Sbisa on IR.
Fasth continues to have a rough season, suffering his second multi-week injury in less than two months. With Fasth out Frederik Andsersen was recalled and will resume his time-share with Jonas Hiller.
Handzus will be back on the ice with the Blackhawks this week but is questionable for tomorrow's contest with the Oilers. If he does not return tomorrow, his next opportunity to return would be Wednesday vs. Calgary. Brandon Pirri posted 11 points in 19 games on the Blackhawks second line, so it is uncertain where Hanzus will slot into the lineup.
Penguins head coach Dan Bylsma said that Bennett's injury is more than day-to-day. It remains an undisclosed injury, but we should get a more detailed report in the new week. In his absence Matt D'Agostini rejoins the lineup.
Harding stepped on a puck and suffered a lower-body injury in pre-game warm-ups. Niklas Backstrom who was activated off of IR just hours before the game made the start. The Wild will likely provide an update on Harding's status later today. It would be a terrible break if Harding misses an extended period of time.
Clowe suffered the concussion in mid-October and has only appeared in six games with the Devils. He had been off of the ice for over a month recovering from the head injury. There is no official timetable, but he is still probably a few weeks away from returning to the lineup.
As you may remember head coach Bruce Boudreau announced at the start of the season that he planned to keep Selanne fresh by sitting him during one game of a back-to-back. Expect Selanne to be back in the lineup on Tuesday.
In seven starts with Ducks this season, Andersen is 6-1-0 with a 1.66 GAA and .943 SV%. Viktor Fasth has been placed on IR and will miss the next 3-4 week, so Andersen re-gains some of that fantasy value he had earlier this month.
The extent of Hanzal's injury is not known at this time, but any time he misses will be a big loss for the Coyotes. Hanzal is tied for the team lead in points with 19 (7G / 12A) through 20 games. Monitor his status prior to tomorrow's game vs. Nashville.
Hossa flew back to Chicago to address a family matter and did not play against the Canucks. It is unknown how long he will be away from the team, so monitor his status on Monday prior to their contest with the Oilers.
Gustavsson stopped 24 of 27 shots to earn the victory on Thursday vs. Carolina. It was not "The Monster's" best game, but it was enough to record his fourth win of the season. Tonight he will lead a shorthanded Wings squad into Buffalo to take on the 5-18-1 Sabres. He could be a perfect Sunday spot start.
Bertuzzi missed Saturday's contest vs. Ottawa and did not travel with the team to Buffalo. Bertuzzi was skating on a line with Pavel Datsyuk, who is also out tonight so the Red Wings will be without two member of their top-6 when they take on the Sabres. Consider him questionable for Wednesday.
Alfredsson will play tonight after missing the last five games. The Red Wings will be without Pavel Datsyuk tonight due to a possible concussion, so Alfie will slide into the top-6 tonight. He registered three goals and 11 assists in his first 19 games as a Red Wing.
Datsyuk was elbowed in the jaw by defenseman Jared Cowen with 7:48 remaining in the Ottawa Senators’ 4-2 victory Saturday. Datsyuk was shaken up momentarily but got up and played three more shifts. His last shift, however, lasted only 12 seconds, and he did not play in the final 1:51. Daniel Alfredsson will take Datsyuk’s place in the lineup. Alfredsson has missed five games with a pulled groin.
Despite being formally charge with one count of third-degree assault on Friday, Varlamov will be in goal tonight vs. the Kings. He stopped 41 of 44 shots in an overtime win over the Coyotes on Thursday. It will be his first start against the Kings this season.
