Bogosian played just 12:32 before departing for the dressing room for the night. The Jets have not announced what Bogosian is dealing with, but recalled Julian Melchiori in case Bogosian can not play tomorrow. Consider him day-to-day and questionable for Sunday.
Brodin missed three games with a broken cheekbone that he suffered on October 22. He will be in the lineup tonight vs. Montreal with a college-style cage. The young defenseman has three goals and three assists while averaging 23:14 TOI in 10 games.
Brodin has missed three games after breaking his cheekbone last Tuesday. Skating on Wednesday, means there is a good chance that he will be in the lineup on Friday. Brodin will be wearing a college-style cage when he returns, but the Wild could use his 23-plus TOI back on the blueline.
Brodin, who has a broken cheekbone, skated on his own Sunday and is close to trying to play through the injury inside a college-style facial cage. “I don’t think he’s been off long enough here where we have to worry about conditioning,” Wild head coach Mike Yeo said. Monitor Brodin's status throughout the day.
It sounds like Brodin isn't going to be out for too long, so you can hold onto the emerging young defenseman while he recovers.
Zuccarello has struggled, recording no points in seven games.
He is out indefinitely and a timetable will be announced once it's determined. As of now, the Wild says this is relatively good news because there was originally a concern he had a broken jaw. More after practice, but as of now, Matt Dumba has taken Brodin's spot on the No. 2 power-play unit
Wild head coach Mike Yeo said Brodin was taken to a hospital for X-rays, but the coach had no update on his condition. This is a tough break for the 20-year-old, who was off to a great start in his sophomore year. He has three goals and three assists (six points) in the Wild's first 10 games while averaging 25:46 TOI (before last night's 1:01).
Pitlick was the 31st overall pick in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft. He has 11 goals and 25 assists (36 points) in 113 games with OKC - including one goal and two assists in seven games this season. Both Ryan Smyth and Jordan Eberle are questionable for tomorrow's game, if one of them can't go, Pitlick would slide into the lineup.
Foligno will make his season debut on the Sabres second line with Tyler Ennis and Drew Stafford. The trio played together for much of last season; when Foligno had five goals and 13 assists in 47 games.
Foligno had five goals and 13 assists in 47 games last season. He has a chance to make his season debut tomorrow vs. Tampa Bay.
Foligno sustained an upper-body strain in a preseason game on Sept. 22 against Toronto and has not participated in a full practice since. He's worked with the team's power play units the last few days before the rest of the team has taken the ice but has done so while sporting a red non-contact jersey. He may miss the games over the weekend against Ottawa on Friday and in Pittsburgh on Saturday as well.
Drew Stafford will take Foligno's spot on the Sabres top-line.
Johansson, 22, had six goals and 16 assists in 34 games last season. He had two points in seven Stanley Cup Playoff games. His best stretch of the season came in the second half, when he had 20 points in his last 22 games of the regular season. Much of that time was spent on Washington's top line alongside Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom.
The 23-year-old defenseman had five goals and 10 assists (15 points) in 39 games for the WIld this season.
With TJ Oshie likely returning tonight for game 1 after missing the last 15 games, Tarasenko appears to be a healthy scratch. Tarasenko had just three assists in his last 15 games.
Bogosian took a hit to the head from the Islanders Kyle Okposo on Saturday.
We will keep you posted on any updates.
Zuccarello might be set to make his season debut Saturday in Montreal
