Compher was a healthy scratch on Tuesday but will replace Matt Calvert (undisclosed) in the lineup on Thursday. Compher, who has been shifted into a fourth-line role since his return from injury, has just two goals and three assists in 23 games this season.
Watson broke his hand in Monday's win over the Flames and is expected to be out until at least late-April. With Watson out, Alex Formenton will make his season debut with the Senators on Wednesday.
Compher will play for the first time since March 5th. Compher missed some time with an upper-body injury but was held out of Thursday's game as a healthy scratch. Compher, who has two goals and two assists in 21 games, will replace Logan O'Connor and skate on the fourth line.
Gibson did not dress Tuesday in Colorado and is day-to-day with a lower-body injury. With Gibson out, Ryan Miller started and Anthony Stolarz served as his backup. If Gibson misses any time, expect them to continue with that experienced duo.
Compher was on the ice for Tuesday's morning skate but will not play vs. the Ducks. Head coach Jared Bednar said that he will likely play Thursday vs. the Wild. Compher, who has two goals and two assists in 21 games, will be missing his sixth straight game on Tuesday.
Chiarot fractured his hand in a fight last Wednesday and underwent surgery on Monday. The Canadiens announced that he'll miss at least six weeks, so expect Victor Mete to remain in the lineup and for Alexander Romanov to play an expanded role.
Mitchell, who was a healthy scratch for the last two games, will replace Nicolas Beaudin in the lineup on Saturday. Mitchell has four points (2G / 2A), 19 shots and a minus-6 rating in 26 games this season.
Chiraot hurt his hand in a fight on Wednesday and did not return. Canadiens head coach Dominique Ducharme said that Chiarot will not be available in Calgary, so look for Victor Mete to be back in the lineup.
Lagesson has missed the last 10 games with an upper-body injury but will dress tonight vs. the Senators. The Oilers would not announce whether or not he will dress as a seventh defenseman or if they will go with 12 forwards and six defensemen.
Larkin has missed the last four games with an upper-body injury but is expected to play on Tuesday. Head coach Jeff Blashill called him "probable" but he's also still considered a game-time decision. Larkin has struggled to just four goals in 22 games due to a 5.5 SH%.
