Thompson (lower-body) will not play on Tuesday.

Thompson has missed some time with a lower-body injury earlier this season and has re-aggravated the injury. Thompson joins Mark Stone, Derick Brassard, Bobby Ryan and Gabriel Dumont as injured Senators forwards, so they will go with 11 forwards and seven defensemen tonight—a call-up from Binghamton (AHL) will be made this afternoon as well.

Glendening (hand) could return to the Red Wings lineup on Tuesday.

Glendening has been out since December 20th but it looks like he might be back in the second game of a back-to-back to kick-off the week. Even when he’s in the lineup, Glendening doesn’t have a lot of fantasy appeal—he has just 10 points (7G / 3A) in 34 games this season.

Glendening left Wednesday’s game with a right hand injury and did not return.

Glendening blocked a shot off of his hand in the first period of Wednesday’s loss to the Flyers. Glendening originally stayed on the bench but didn’t return for the second period and head coach Jeff Blashill did not have a time frame for Glendening’s return.

The Flames have recalled Garnet Hathaway from Stockton (AHL).

Jaromir Jagr was unavailable for Tuesday’s game vs. the Maple Leafs so Hathaway’s recall suggests that Jagr won’t be available on Thursday. The heavy winger (6-foot-2 / 208 lbs.) has registered 11 goals and eight assists (19 points) in 18 games with Stockton this season.
