Ceci suffered an ankle injury on Wednesday and will miss at least one month. He'll go on IR and be re-evaluated at that time and the Maple Leafs will update his status again. In the meantime, Timothy Liljegren was recalled from the Marlies to take Ceci's spot on the roster.
Ceci is headed for injured reserve with an ankle injury that he suffered on Wednesday night. With Ceci out, Martin Marincin will likely draw into the lineup on Friday and Timothy Liljegren may be recalled from the AHL.
Panarin missed the final game before the All-Star break but will play tonight vs. the Red Wings. Panarin has been terrific this season, scoring 26 goals with 42 assists (68 points) in 47 games.
Doughty missed Monday's practice and Wednesday's optional morning skate, suggesting he won't be available for tonight's game vs. the Lightning. Derek Forbort is also unlikely to play, so look for Sean Walker and Alec Martinez to play massive minutes for the Kings.
Kuemper, who has missed the last 14 games, will miss Wednesday's game in Anaheim but head coach Rich Tocchet is encouraged by his progress. Tocchet said that the break "really helped with the rehab" and that Kuemper is nearing a return with each practice. Antti Raanta will continue to get the bulk of the starts but it looks like Kuemper will be back in the fold very soon.
Moore has been out since December 21st but is set to play Monday in Nashville. Moore, who had two points (1G / 1A) during his two-game conditioning stint with the Marlies, will be on the fourth line on Monday.
Based on line rushes in Monday's practice, it looks like Haula could sit Tuesday vs. the Jets. Haula has missed time due to a knee injury this season, so scratching him on Tuesday could be a way to give him an extra couple of days off before the Hurricanes bye week. Jordan Martinook would replace Haula if he's out.
Armia has been out since December 23rd but was a full participant in Tuesday's practice and head coach Claude Julien said he's close to returning. Julien added that he's "very doubtful" for Wednesday which makes him at least questionable for Thursday's game in Philadelphia.
Laughton missed the last seven games with a groin injury but he will play Tuesday in Los Angeles. Laughton will likely replace Andy Andreoff and skate on the third line and will look to build on the nine points (4G / 5A) he amassed in his first 19 games.
Haula was not on the ice for Monday's practice or Tuesday's morning skate but head coach Rod Brind'Amour is hopeful that Haula will be available vs. Montreal. Since returning to the lineup on December 21st, Haula has two goals and two assists (four points) in four games.
Moore is out indefinitely with a concussion so the Maple Leafs have moved him to IR to open up a roster spot to recall Kenny Agostino from Toronto (AHL).
Laughton was on the ice for Friday's practice but will miss at least another game when the Flyers face the Sharks in San Jose. With Laughton still out, the recently waived Andy Andreoff will play on Saturday.
Armia was hurt midway through the Canadiens' final game before the Christmas break and will miss at least a couple of weeks with an upper-body injury. Luckily for the Canadiens, Jesperi Kotkaniemi will be back in the lineup on Saturday.
Edler has missed the last 10 games with an upper-body injury but will return to the lineup tonight vs. the Oilers. Edler has enjoyed a good year, scoring four goals with 11 assists (15 points) in 27 games.
Moore returned to the Maple Leafs lineup on Saturday but will come right back out for today's game vs. Carolina. According to the Maple Leafs, his status will be updated after the game.
