Great news for the Bolts as they look to get their top defenseman back in the lineup. The former 2nd overall pick scored two goals and six points in 32 games before getting hurt.
Oberg has no fantasy hockey value despite finally getting into the lineup.
Dalpe likely gets into a few games with the Charlotte Checkers over the break. Expect him to come right back up to the Canes by next Tuesday.
Expect Hamill to fill in on the third line. The rookie has two assists through 12 games.
Just like he did in the Stanley Cup Finals, Peverley fills in for Horton on the top line. He has seven goals and 32 points through 40 games.
Horton is out with a mild concussion and unlikely to play tonight. The right wing scored 17 goals and 32 points in 46 games. Look for Rich Peverley to move up to the first line.
Bergenheim practiced on the top line yesterday but will be a healthy scratch tonight. He has seven goals in 28 games this season. Expect him to get back into the lineup shortly.
In four career starts against the Flyers, Clemmensen has a 3-1-0 record with a 2.67 GAA and .915 SV%.
Kulikov definitely won't play tonight and misses most of the regular season. The Russian defenseman has four goals and 24 points through 46 games. He will be missed as one of the team's top puck-movers.
In 10 career starts against the Blue Jackets, Garon has a 7-1-1-1 record with a 2.28 GAA, .926 SV% and one shutout.
Expect Burns to miss at least tonight's game. In his first season with the Sharks, the Ajax, Ontario native has seven goals and 17 points through 46 games.
Sounds like Greene's recovery isn't going according to originally planned. The Trenton, Michigan native registered nine assists in 23 games with the Devils before getting hurt. He won't return until the end of the month at the absolute earliest.
Harrold will act as a swing man. He has no fantasy hockey value.
Benn's participation in the All-Star Game means he should return right after. The Stars next play on February 1st.
Kubalik has a goal and an assist over eight games. With two spare forwards, the winger is likely better suited in the AHL.
Toews is eligible to come off IR during the weekend but has already bowed out of the All-Star Game. He is still listed as day-to-day.
Pirri played on the second line during his last stint with the team and could draw in there. The rookie has two assists in four games.
In three career appearances against the Isles, the Monster has a 1-1-1 record with a 1.23 GAA, .943 SV% and one shutout.
Sounds like Price's injury won't keep him off the ice. Expect him to start against the Red Wings tomorrow.
No word on whether Nokelainen is healthy to suit up against the Red Wings. The Finnish forward has two goals and four points in 36 games. Expect the Habs to dress seven D if he can't play.
