Rielly sat in each of the Maple Leafs first two games of the season but could play on Saturday. Mark Fraser was seen leaving the arena on crutches last night, which opens a spot on the blueline for the 19-year-old.
Rielly led all Leafs in ice time in the final tune-up game Saturday, as management took one long, last look at him before making their decision. While the roster has not been submitted yet, it appears Rielly will remain in Toronto for at least nine games, the limit before the clock starts ticking on the first year of his entry-level contract.
Domi had a good preseason and looked like he may make the team. However he has been sent back to the OHL and will not have any fantasy relevance this season.
Laughton can remain with the Flyers for nine games because of his junior eligibility and then the club has to make a decision to either keep him or return him to Oshawa. If Laughton remains, his NHL contract would kick in immediately.
Coyotes head coach Dave Tippett said if Domi makes the roster it’s going to be because he and General Manager Don Maloney believe Domi can contribute significantly. This means if he makes the team he will not be stuffed on the 4th line playing small minutes, he will likely skate amongst the top-6. Monitor Domi's status because if he makes the team he could be a great late-round pick or waiver wire addition.
It's unlikely that the small forward will crack the Coyotes roster out of camp but he's a fiery goal scorer who could impress in his short trial.
Muzzin who was scratched in Game 2 will return to the blueline for Game 3. He has three assists and is a minus-2 in 14 games this post-season. He is averaging the fifth most time on ice of all the Kings defenseman with 15:43 per game.
Canucks are on the road for 5 straight.
Andrew Alberts will replace Tanev on the Canucks blueline.
Ekman-Larsson leads all Coyotes defensemen in scoring and assists with 3-14-17 in 27 games. He also ranks tied for sixth among all NHL defensemen in points.
Tavares has 13 goals and 12 assists in 21 games this season. Looks like he will be able to play after missing practice yesterday with an illness.
Tavares missed practice yesterday with an illness, but he should play today but check back before game-time to be sure.
The Flyers can bring Laughton back as soon as the Oshawa Generals are eliminated from OHL contention.
Injuries threatening the Flyers appear to have made a factor in this decision as the Flyers had until today to send Laughton back to the O.
If you are in a deep keeper league, Rielly could be good to stash this season.
Tanev draws back into the lineup for tonight's game. He registered two assists in 24 games this season.
Tanev won't play tonight. He has two assists in 24 games.
No word on Tanev's status moving forward. He has two assists in 24 games.
Tanev moves back into a top-four role. He has one assist in 13 games.
