Abruzzese was a fourth-round pick in 2019 and turns pro after two years at Harvard University. The 22-year-old centre was second on Harvard with 33 points (9G / 24A) in 28 games. He also notched one goa and three assists in four games with Team USA at the Olympics.

McDonagh suffered an injury in Boston on Thursday and will not be available Saturday in Detroit. McDonagh is expected to miss some time.





Paul is a strong two-way forward, who will help the Lightning third line but won't provide a lot of offence. Paul has scored 11 goals and seven assists (18 points) in 59 games this season. Look for him to start on a line with Ross Colton and Brandon Hagel.



Katchouk was acquired for Brandon Hagel on Friday and will make his debut Saturday afternoon in Minnesota. The Blackhawks did not announce who he will replace in the lineup but he comes in with six points (2G / 4A) in 38 games this season.

Hagel was not on the ice for the morning skate but will make his Lightning debut on Saturday, one day after being acquired from Chicago. Hagel, who has 21 goals and 16 assists (37 points) in 55 games, will start on a line with Ross Colton and Mathieu Joseph.

Paul is the Senators' biggest trade chip as we near Monday's trade deadline, so he will sit out of Friday's game vs. the Flyers.



Girgensons has been sidelined by an undisclosed injury since January 25th but is set to play Thursday in Edmonton. Girgensons has scored seven goals with five assists (12 points) in 34 games this season.
