#lightning Mathieu Garon vs #canadiens Carey Price
In 12 career starts against the Bolts, Price has a 5-5-2 record with a 2.70 GAA and .907 SV%.
Line Change
#Blues forward Ryan Reaves has been taken off IR...likely to play tonight
Reaves could drop the glove with Shane O'Brien or Cody McLeod.
D Colin White placed on IR #sjsharks
White last played on December 26th and is eligible to come off IR at any time. He has no fantasy hockey value.
Goalie Start
He will face Carey Price.
In 13 career appearances against the Jets, Price is 6-3-3 with a 2.51 GAA and .914 SV%.
@HMof2 Probably so. Skinner most likely won't be cleared for contact until the end of the week at the earliest.
All concussions are different but it looks like there is an outside shot Skinner returns this month. The reigning Rookie of the Year has 12 goals and 24 points through 30 games.
Jeff Skinner skating again today in yellow.
Skinner continues to skate, which is a great sign for the Canes. The next step now is taking contact.
Pretty strong practice today. A lot of skating. Probably pretty good test for Skinner.
Skinner skated for the first time since getting concussed. The reigning Rookie of the Year has 12 goals and 24 points through 30 games.

#canadiens Carey Price vs #panthers
In six career starts against the Panthers, Price has a 3-3-0 record with a 2.33 GAA, .927 SV% and one shutout.
#NHL_Canes Jeff Skinner has been on the RBC Center ice on his own, still no timetable for a return from his concussion.
Great sign that Skinner is back on the ice. If he continues at this pace, we may see him lace them up again this season.

Mathieu Garon contre Carey Price ce soir.
In 11 career starts against the Lightning, Price has a 5-4-2 record with a 2.58 GAA and .913 SV%.
Just got off the phone with Carolina GM Jim Rutherford. Still no timeline for Jeff Skinner's return from concussion.
Skinner is a dynamic scorer with the potential to win a Rocket Richard Trophy over his NHL career. However, the Markham, Ontario native last played on December 7th and is clogging up most owner's IR slot.
As expected, Blues activate B.J. Crombeen & place Ryan Reaves on IR. #stlblues
Turns out Reaves is actually injured and not just scratched. He has no points through 24 games with 36 PIM.
Convenient, as Colin White didn't skate today after leaving early last night.
Sounds like White could miss a game or two as he hasn't been skating since leaving last night's game.
Line Change
@Chasenpucks39 reports Ryan Reaves is out. #stlblues
The Red Wings don't dress an enforcer so playing Reaves is relatively pointless.
Goalie Start
#Hab Price in goal tomorrow vs Senators
In 16 career appearances against the Sens, Price has a 9-5-0 record with a 2.35 GAA, .916 SV% and three shutouts.
No change in injury status of Skinner
Skinner remains out indefinitely so make arrangements around his status. The Canes did place him on IR recently, which should at least give you an extra roster spot in Yahoo! leagues.
Reaves just skated off the ice in some pain. #stlblues
No word on whether Reaves will play tonight. If he can't look for Evgeny Grachev to reenter the lineup.
No change on Skinner, Pitkanen condition.

Carey Price will play in Winnipeg on Thursday.
In 12 career appearances against the Jets organization, Price has a 6-2-3 record with a 2.39 GAA and .918 SV%.
