van Riemsdyk has missed the last two games with a concussion, but he will join the team on their current road-trip. Although he will meet the team in Edmonton, there is no word whether or not he will play tomorrow.

van Riemsdyk was sidelined by a concussion in the season opener and is expected to miss at least the next four games as the Hurricanes head out to western Canada. Look for Carolina to recall a defenseman from Charlotte (AHL) to serve as a seventh defenseman.

van Riemsdyk is in concussion protocol following his Hurricanes’ debut and will not play tonight. With van Riemsdky out, Klas Dahlbeck will draw in on the blueline and all three D-pairs will be shuffled around. Consider TvR as day-to-day.

van Riemsdyk lasted just 10:56 TOI in his Hurricanes debut before departing the game with a lower-body ailment. The Hurricanes said T.V.R. will “likely” miss tomorrow’s game, so consider him day-to-day.


After being selected in the expansion draft yesterday, it was rumoured that van Riemsdyk could be on the move before Friday’s draft and Carolina is where he ends up. The 25-year right shot defenseman was limited to 58 games in 2016-17, but set a career-high with 16 points (5G / 11A). TVR is just scratching the surface offensively and should be a key member of an already talented Hurricanes’ blueline.



Davidson has been out of the lineup for the last two games, but will replace Nathan Beaulieu in the lineup tonight vs. the Blackhawks. Davidson had two shots and a minus-1 rating in his Canadiens debut last Tuesday and has just one assist in 29 games this season.



Davidson has had a long journey to the NHL as a sixth round pick, but has registered just one assist in 28 games this season. Davidson will likely find playing time hard to come by in Montreal.

Davidson has recorded one just one assist in 25 games this season and will be replaced by Kris Russell, who returns from a lower-body injury tomorrow.


Davidson has been sidelined since the season opener when he suffered a shoulder injury on a collision with Matthew Tkachuk. Davidson will replace Dillon Simpson in the lineup.

van Riemsdyk has been out since October 21st and has only appeared in two games this season. TVR has 15 points (3G / 12A) in 102 career NHL games and is expected to replace Michal Rozsival in the lineup vs. Philadelphia.

van Riemsdyk was set to face-off against his brother James tonight vs. the Maple Leafs, but he was spotted wearing a sling this morning after leaving last night’s game. Sporting a sling usually suggests a fairly serious injury and it will almost certainly keep him out of tonight’s contest.

Davidson left Wednesday’s game with an undisclosed injury and did not return. Davidson, who was battling injury in the preseason as well, will head to IR and opens up a roster spot for Eric Gryba to get into the lineup.

There is no word on what is ailing Davidson, but he will miss the remainder of the season opener. Expect the Oilers to give an update on Davidson in the next 24 hours.
