Haula missed two games while in COVID-19 protocol but was on the ice for Monday's practice and is expected to play Tuesday. Haula, who has 16 points (5G / 11A) in 40 games this season, was back between Taylor Hall and David Pastrnak in Monday's session.
Hague was listed as day-to-day on Monday but has been upgraded to a game-time decision. The Golden Knights are already without Alec Martinez and Zach Whitecloud, so missing Hague as well would leave them very shorthanded on the blueline.
Hague is day-to-day and not expected to play Tuesday vs. the Sabres, but Alec Martinez was on the ice on Monday and could draw back in to replace him.
Hague will replace Daniil Mriomanov on the Golden Knights' blueline and re-enters the lineup with 13 points (3G / 10A) in 32 games this season. Monday will be Hague's first game since December 28th.
Forsberg has missed the last four games but is back on the Predators active roster, suggesting he'll be back in the lineup Monday. Consider Forsberg a game-time decision and monitor his status as the Predators hit the ice for warmups at 7:30 PM ET.
