Jones has spent time between the AHL and NHL this season, scoring three goals with 11 points in 14 games in Bakersfield and three assists in 23 games with the Oilers. Jones projects to be a third-pairing defenseman heading into 2020-21, so this is a great cap-hit for the Oilers.
Lizotte stayed back in Los Angeles during the start fo the Kings road-trip and head coach Todd McLellan told reporters that he will remain at home for the duration of the trip. Jaret Anderson-Dolan is expected to remain with the Kings while Lizotte is out.
Crosby has missed the last 28 games after undergoing core muscle surgery to repair a nagging sports hernia in mid-November. Crosby was back on the top line (with McCann and Simon) and top power-play unit and comes in with 17 points (5G / 12A) in 17 games this season.

Jarry has allowed three goals in four straight games but has still won eight of his last 10 starts (8-1-1) while posting a 2.25 GAA, .925 SV% and one shutout. The Penguins will get a huge boost tonight with Sidney Crosby returning to the lineup.

Aho did not appear in a game during his call-up and goes back to the AHL with the Islanders off until Saturday.

Johnson has been out since December 4th but will travel to Florida for Sunday's game. This doesn't necessarily mean that he will play against the Panthers, but could join the team for practice at the very least.

Jarry allowed three goals on 34 shots in the Penguins loss to the Panthers on Sunday. Jarry has lost his last two starts, allowing three goals in each game and posting a .909 SV%.

Crosby has been out since November 9th after undergoing surgery for a nagging sports hernia but it looks like he'll be back in the lineup at some point this week. The Penguins are in Vegas on Tuesday, so monitor Crosby's status if they elect to hold a morning skate.
