Gavrikov missed two games while in COVID-19 protocol but will likely be available for Sunday's game vs. the Senators. Gavrikov has scored two goals with 15 assists (17 points), 58 blocked shots and 61 hits in 36 games this season.
Blidh was absolutely crushed by Tom Wilson in Thursday's game vs. the Capitals and did not return. Blidh is expected to be replaced by Steven Fogarty on the fourth line on Saturday.
Miller will not be available for Friday's game vs. the Panthers or Sunday's game vs. the Blues. The Canucks will be in tough this weekend, missing Miller, Bo Horvat, Conor Garland and Thatcher Demko due to COVID-19 protocol.
Panarin missed the last four games while in COVID-19 protocol but was back at practice on Sunday and is expected to play Monday vs. the Kings. The Rangers managed to go 3-1-0 without Panarin but his return will obviously be a very welcomed addition to the top-6 and PP1. Panarin has registered 10 goals and 26 assists (36 points) in 31 games this season.
