Hyman was scratched from the lineup on Thursday but will replace Nic Petan and draw back into the lineup on Saturday. Hyman will likely be back on the second line with John Tavares and William Nylander and comes in with 10 points (4G / 6A) in 17 games this season.









Murphy was a bit of a surprise scratch on Tuesday but Chicago announced that he'll miss at least 10 days with a hip injury. This is a huge loss for Chicago, who had Lucas Carlsson replace him in the top-4 a couple of nights ago.

Ekholm was hurt Tuesday vs. the Lightning and did not return for the third period. Head coach John Hynes told a local radio station that Ekholm is week-to-week, so expect him to miss at least a couple of weeks.


The Predators cited "baby reasons" for why he missed Monday's game but he is expected to be back in the lineup on Tuesday. Expect Ekholm to replace Jared Tinordi on the blueline.





Bouchard was the No.10 overall pick in 2018 and appeared in seven games with the Oilers in 2018-19. The 21-year-old, who had 36 points (7G / 29A) in 54 games with Bakersfield (AHL) last year, will make his season debut vs. the Senators and is expected to skate on the third pair with Kris Russell.
