Rasmussen will get two games for his high stick on David Krejci in the Red Wings' 5-1 loss Thursday. He will now miss the Red Wings game Saturday against Minnesota and Monday against Buffalo.
Talbot surprisingly returned to full practice Friday for the Ottawa Senators after missing the last few weeks due to a rib injury. Head Coach DJ Smith said "Talbot will come on the trip but won't play. He can skate and take shots each day on the trip." The 35-year-old netminder was acquired in the offseason for Filip Gustavsson after enjoying a 32-win season in Minnesota in 2021-22 while posting a .911 SV% and 2.76 GAA.
The Canucks placed two players on injured reserve Wednesday opening the door for Shelden Dries to earn the call-up from Abbotsford (AHL). In 59 career NHL games, the 28-year-old has five goals and nine points while playing for the Canucks and Avalanche.
Talbot was spotted on the ice at Senators' practice taking shots alongside Anton Forberg after missing the last three weeks due to an upper-body injury. He is still a few weeks away from returning but it is a great sign for Ottawa's big offseason addition. He is currently sitting on 201 career wins with a .915 SV% through 396 career GP.
van Riemsdyk suffered a hand injury in the first period of Sunday's loss to the Sharks, and it will require surgery. The Flyers did not release a timetable for van Riemsdyk's return. Expect Owen Tippett (upper-body) to replace him in the lineup on Thursday.
Gibson and the Anaheim defence have struggled mightily in his three starts as his 5.96 GAA is second last in the NHL supported by his low .872 SV%. The Ducks head to Boston to take on a 3-1-0 Bruins team coming off their first loss Tuesday in a 7-5 battle with the Ottawa Senators. Even without superstar Brad Marchand the Bruins are averaging 5.25 GF/G through their first four.
Dries did not appear in either of the Canucks first two games of the season and was sent to the AHL to make room for Noah Juulsen after Tucker Poolman was injured on Saturday. Dries had 35 goals and 27 assists (62 points) in 54 games with Abbotsford (AHL) last year.
Gibson enters Saturday's matchup against the New York Islanders 1-0-0 after an incredible opening night performance by the 10-year-veteran. The Ducks workhorse stood true to his title stopping 44 of 48 shots in Anaheim's 5-4 opening night overtime win against Seattle Wednesday. He will hope to face less action in his second start after finishing 2021-22 with the seventh most Shots Against (1789) throughout the NHL.
Copp missed the preseason but is ready to make his Red Wings debut on Friday. Copp will start on the second line with Jakub Vrana and David Perron on his wings.
Gibson enters his 10th NHL season as the starter against the Seattle Kraken Wednesday night. The 29-year-old has failed to achieve a better than .904 SV% in any of his previous three seasons while only finishing below a 3.00 GAA only once in those three years. He will look to add a win in the stat column right out of the gate as the veteran struggled to come by them a season ago (18 wins in 56 GS).

Appleton has been dealing with an upper-body injury and was moved to IR retroactive to October 5th. The move would still allow him to be activated ahead of the Jets season opener, and was likely made in order to open up a roster spot for Axel Jonsson-Fjällby.
Edvinsson was the No.6 overall pick in 2021 and enjoyed a solid preseason, recording one assist with 10 shots on goal in five games. Edvinsson will start the season in the AHL but will likely be the first defenseman to be called up when the Red Wings need a blueliner.
Gibson stopped 16 of 19 shots in the first period but was replaced by Anthony Stolarz for the start of the second period. The Ducks announced that Gibson was dealing with an upper-body injury. It's unclear if it was precautionary or if he's in danger of missing the season opener vs. Seattle on Wednesday.
Talbot is expected to miss at least the first month of the season. The Senators claimed Magnus Hellberg off waivers from the Kraken to help provide depth behind Anton Forsberg while Talbot is out.
