The Rangers have been off since Monday and do not play again until Saturday, so Trouba is hopeful that will be enough time to recover from his upper-body ailment that has him considered day-to-day. In his last three games, Trouba has two points (0G / 2A), nine shots, and eight hits.
Wagner had to leave the ice mid-way through the 2nd period Wednesday after an upper-body injury and did not return. The 32-year-old veteran was playing an extended role Wednesday as the Avalanche's third-line centre after trades thinned out the lineup. He has an assist, nine SOG, and five PIMs in nine games played this season while averaging a minuscule 8:23 TOI/GP.
Kampf played on Monday night, was absent from practice on Tuesday, but participated in the morning skate on Wednesday. Kampf has two points (1G / 1A) in his last 10 games while predominantly centring the teams' fourth line.
McCabe is a surprise scratch for Wednesday's game with the team not announcing his absence prior to the start of warmups. William Lagesson will likely draw into the lineup in his place.
Raanta has not played since February 8th due to a lower-body injury. The 34-year-old netminder owns a 12-7-2 record and an .872 SV% across 24 appearances this season.
Terry played the last two games after returning from an injury, tallying one point (0G / 1A), but will return to the sidelines on Wednesday due to an upper-body injury. The Ducks will likely be hard-pressed to find offence on Wednesday night as they will also be without Adam Henrique, who was traded to the Edmonton Oilers earlier in the day.
Martinez played 17:22 time-on-ice in the Golden Knights' last contest, a 6-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, but suffered an lower-body injury at some point and will be out of the lineup for at least one week. The 36-year-old Martinez was enjoying a productive season by his standards, registering 16 points (4G / 12A) and 152 blocks in 45 games.
Caleb Jones entered the Avalanche lineup on Monday, replacing Manson, who could return from a lower-body injury on Wednesday against the Detroit Red Wings. Manson has gone without a point in 12 straight games but has tallied a whopping 31 hits over that time.
Byram has 20 points (8G / 12A) in 55 games this season but has been limited to only one assist in his last seven games. Recently, he has played on the third defensive pairing alongside Jack Johnson.
O'Connor played 11:51 time-on-ice in Monday's 5-0 win over the Chicago Blackhawks but will not play against the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday. The 27-year-old O'Conner has 25 points (13G / 12A) in 57 games this season but has been held off the scoresheet in seven straight.
Andersen was diagnosed with deep-vein thrombosis and subsequent pulmonary embolisms in November. He has actively participated in practice the last several weeks and should return to the lineup imminently. Anderson has a 2.87 GAA and .894 SV% in six games this season (4-1-0), and at the very least, he will likely return to a timeshare between the pipes.
Foligno has not played since February 9th, missing 11 games, but could return to the lineup on Thursday against the Arizona Coyotes. In 47 games this season, Foligno has 20 points (9G / 11A) and 162 hits while averaging 14:35 time-on-ice.
Emberson has missed the last three games due to a lower-body injury and will be out of the lineup on a week-to-week basis. The 23-year-old Emberson has 10 points (1G / 9A), 92 hits, and 46 blocks in 30 games this season.
Konecny has not played since February 21st, missing six games with an upper-body injury, but appears to be nearing a return after being a full participant at practice on Wednesday. Before his injury, Konecy was producing at a blistering pace, scoring 12 points (5G / 7A) during a seven-game point streak. The Flyers return to the ice on Thursday against the Florida Panthers.
Giordano played only 3:09 time-on-ice before exiting the Maple Leafs' 4-2 victory over the Arizona Coyotes on February 29th with an upper-body injury in the first period. The 40-year-old Giordano had just returned from a five-game absence for personal reasons and has missed considerable time already this season.
Kampf played on Monday night, was absent from practice on Tuesday, but participated in the morning skate on Wednesday. Kampf has two points (1G / 1A) in his last 10 games while predominantly centring the teams' fourth line.
Seeler exited Monday's 2-1 loss to the St. Louis Blues in the third period after playing 16:57. His impending absence is a tough loss for the Flyers as he has been an integral part of their defensive core and has also been a name actively circulating through trade rumours.
The Ducks avoided a potentially devastating loss as McTavish did not suffer any broken bones after suffering a lower-body injury in a 4-3 win over the New Jersey Devils on March 1st. McTavish will likely miss his second straight game on Tuesday when the Ducks host the Ottawa Senators. Before his injury, McTavish had nine points (4G / 5A) in his last eight games.
Carlsson has missed the last two games for the Ducks and is unlikely to play on Wednesday against the Ottawa Senators. Before his injury, the rookie Carlsson had collected three points (1G / 2A) in his last seven games.
Eklund did not play on Sunday due to an undisclosed injury but will return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Dallas Stars. The talented forward is currently riding a two-game goal-scoring streak.

While the minimum amount of time spent on the injured reserve list is seven calendar days, there is no maximum amount of time that a player can be placed on the injured reserve list. If a player is set to be sidelined for longer than 24 calendar days or 10 NHL games, then a club may opt to place them on the long-term injured reserve instead. This allows franchises with the ability to exceed the salary cap while a player is placed on this reserve list.
No injury recovery timeline is the same as another as there are several factors that go into the rehab process for a player being affected by injury. Factors include but are not limited to, injury severity, player injury/medical history, age, as well as the location of the injury. Some injuries are able to clear up in a matter of days, while others may take an athlete out of action for the entirety of a season.
