Lomberg was a healthy scratch vs. the Blue Jackets but will replace Frank Vatrano in the lineup on Saturday. Lomberg has 11 points (4G / 7A) in 39 games this season while averaging 11:39 TOI/gm.
Werenski is day-to-day with an upper-body injury and did not travel with the club on their two-game road trip in Florida/Carolina. Gabriel Carlsson is expected to replace Werenski in the lineup on Thursday.
Soucy missed eight games with a lower-body injury but will play Thursday in Winnipeg. Soucy, who has six goals and seven assists in 33 games, will replace Haydn Fleury.
Heinen missed the final two games before the All-Star break with an upper-body injury but was a full participant in Monday's practice and will be a game-time decision on Tuesday. Heinen skated on the third line with Evan Rodrigues and Radim Zohorna in Monday's session.
Copley appeared in relief in the Capitals final game before the All-Star break, stopping 21 of 22 shots in a loss to the Oilers. Copley started the game as Ilya Samsonov's backup because Vitek Vanecek was dealing with an injury. Being recalled post-All-Star break suggests that Vanecek still isn't 100 percent heading into Tuesday's game vs. Columbus.
Fabbro missed six games with an upper-body injury but is set to play Tuesday vs. the Canucks. Fabbro re-enters the lineup with one goal and 10 assists (11 points) in 35 games this season.
Soucy suffered a lower-body injury in Sunday's game vs. the Panthers and is expected to be out for at least a couple of weeks. Expect Soucy to be re-evaluated after the All-Star break.
