Good news for Colaicovo, who has already missed five games. Stay tuned for a further update regarding where he fits into the lineup.

Through three starts against the Flames, Lundqvist holds a 1-2-0 record with a 3.02 GAA and .857 SV%.

With Kevin Westgarth in the lineup, expect the Coyotes to dress Paul Bissonnette.

Over eight career games against the Canucks, Rinne holds a 4-4-0 record with a 1.90 GAA, .941 SV% and one shutout.

Wolski has apparently been spending a lot of time in the cold ice tub due to his sore groin. In his only game played -- the season opener -- the Polish winger was generally ineffective. Look for the team to ease him back into the lineup on a bottom line.

Ferriero would be making his 2011-2012 debut. With seven career goals over 57 career games his expectations should be limited.

Look for Havlat to take his usual line next to Logan Couture and Ryane Clowe. The winger scored 22 goals and 62 points in 78 games with the Wild last season. He should come close to those totals over a full season in San Jose.

Sounds like Mueller had a setback or simply can't find himself on the ice. As always, stay tuned for a further update from the team.

Salo has two goals and four points over the team's first six games -- leading all D-men. With 142 career PP, he should look just fine on the top PP unit.

Following season-ending surgery, Samuelsson continues to struggle with his timing. Through his first six games of the season, the Mariefred, Sweden native has a goal and three points. Look for him to draw back in the next time the Canucks play.

Sturm draws back into the lineup following one game as a healthy scratch. Through his first five games as a member of the Canucks, Sturm has no points and a minus-4 rating.

In eight career appearances against his former team, Hedberg holds a 2-4-1 record with a 2.93 GAA, .899 SV% and one shutout.

Yeo could switch Bouchard and Setoguchi over the course of the game but the team's lines will at least start as is. Bouchard has two assists through his first four games with a minus-2 rating.

Yeo could switch Bouchard and Setoguchi over the course of the game but the team's lines will at least start as is. Setoguchi has two goals through his first six games as a member of the Wild.

Over five career appearances against the Sharks, Hedberg holds a 1-3-0 record with a 4.75 GAA and .825 SV%.

The team is trying Porter out on a scoring line. Through his first two games this season he has no points. He has never scored more than 13 goals on any team so don't expect much production.
