Sounds like Jagr could have played but the Flyers did not want to risk further injury.

Jagr was sidelined for all but two shifts after hurting himself in the first period. Stay tuned for a further update on his status.

Ennis continues to sit out for precautionary measures. The Edmonton native scored three goals and five points over his last eight games before re-injuring his ankle.

Myers was deemed "a ways away" by coach Lindy Ruff at the end of December. Sounds like he continues to take steps in the right direction but probably misses another week or two.

Gagne is likely out for an exorbitant amount of time due to this most recent concussion. The veteran has been sidelined with concussions numerous times in his career and definitely holds the injury-prone label. He has seven goals and 17 points over 34 games.

Souray is eligible to return to the lineup at any time. He has four goals and 16 points through 34 games with the Stars.

Dillon scored two goals and 13 points over 31 games in the AHL. He could be used as insurance and serve as a seventh defender.

In nine career starts against the Canucks, Niemi has a 2-5-2 record with a 3.19 GAA, .901 SV% and one shutout.

Out since he blocked a shot with his foot on December 17th, Little has missed the last six games. Surprisingly, the team went 4-1-1 without him.

Semin has been on fire with five points over his last three games. He finished December with five goals and 10 points over 12 games which is certainly rounding into form.

We should know Green's status prior to tomorrow's game. The All-Star defenseman has been skating on the top PP unit and is expected to get back into the lineup this week.

The rookie Kassian is likely a healthy scratch with the team. He has three goals and six points through 16 games.

Gerbe took three shots on goal and registered four hits in his first game back in the lineup. The Sabres are hoping he can generate some more scoring chances as a secondary scorer.

At 42, Selanne is not getting any younger so he needs some maintenance days over the season. He continues to be the best player on the Ducks, scoring 11 goals and 36 points in 37 games.
