Makar (upper-body) is getting "close" but will not play Tuesday.

Makar has missed the last nine games with an upper-body injury but was on the ice for Tuesday's morning skate. It was the first time since late-February that Makar skated in a regular jersey but he's still not ready to play tonight vs. the Ducks. Head coach Jared Bednar said he's getting "close," so monitor his status prior to Thursday's game vs. the Wild.
