Carlsson has scored one goal with eight assists (nine points) in 28 games with the Monsters this season. The former first-round pick (No.29 overall in 2015)has appeared in 17 career NHL games to-date and gets his first call-up of the season with Andrew Peeke (broken finger) going on IR.
Marincin has often been called up but has only appeared in seven NHL games this season. He is often squeezed back to the AHL due to cap reasons but has been recalled again, along with Timothy Liljegren, because Tyson Barrie was hurt on Saturday.
Tyson Barrie was hurt on Saturday so Liljegren could get his first taste of the NHL this week. The 20-year-old defenseman was the No.17 overall pick in 2017 and has registered 13 points (2G / 11A) in 24 AHL games this season.
The Canadiens do not have a back-to-back before the Christmas break, so Cayden Primeau will go to Laval to get some playing time and Lindgren comes up to backup Carey Price. Lindgren has gone 7-6-2 with a 2.67 GAA and .893 SV% in 16 AHL games.
McIlrath was sent down yesterday but with Dylan Larkin questionable and Andreas Athanasiou still out, the Red Wings may have to dress McIlrath as the seventh defenseman on Thursday.
McIlrath has failed to record a point in 16 games with the Red Wings this season. With McIlrath and Dennis Cholowski going back to Grand Rapids, Jonathan Ericsson and Alex Biega will play on Thursday.
Kyrou was recalled from San Antonio (AHL) on Monday and will play Tuesday in Buffalo. Kyrou has played very well in the AHL this season, scoring nine goals with six assists (15 points) in 16 games--giving him 58 points (25G / 31A) in 63 career AHL games. He'll be given an excellent chance to produce on Tuesday, as he'll skate with Brayden Schenn and Jaden Schwartz. He had just three points (1G / 2A) in 16 games with St. Louis last year.
Kyrou is one of the Blues top prospects and gets recalled with the Blues struggling offensively in their last two games. Kyrou, who was a second-round pick in 2016, has 15 points (9G / 6A) in 16 AHL games this season. During a 16-game stint with the Blues last year, Kyrou had one goal and two assists.
Strome has missed the last four games with a concussion but will play Thursday in Boston. Strome will be back on the second-line with Alex DeBrincat and Patrick Kane and re-enters the lineup with 17 points (5G / 12A) in 23 games.
Strome is feeling better but will miss his fourth consecutive game with concussion symptoms. With Strome still out, Andrew Shaw now listed on the injury report, and no cap space to call anyone up, Chicago will have to play with just 11 forwards and six defensemen on Monday.
Tuch missed the last four games with an upper-body injury that he suffered in his second game of the season (Nov.2) but will suit up vs. the Blackhawks. Tuch scored a goal in his season debut and will play on the same line tonight (with Cody Eakin and Cody Glass).
Tuch missed the first 13 games of the season and lasted just four periods before getting hurt again. Tuch didn't travel with the team to star their road-trip but may re-join them at some point during their four-game trip. Nicolas Roy was recalled from Chicago (AHL) and will take his spot on the roster on Tuesday.
Brodzinski is dealing with a shoulder injury so they swap him for Lean Bergmann to help the Sharks in the immediate future. Brodzinski has two goals and one assist in three games with the Barracuda this season.
Brodzinski has appeared in just two games this season but will replace Dylan Gambrell, who will miss at least two games with an upper-body injury. Brodzinski has just 11 points (6G / 5A) in 56 career NHL games.
All signs are pointing towards Tuch making his season debut on Thursday but he has not been medically cleared as of now. Tuch skated on the third line with Cody Eakin and Cody Glass in Wednesday's practice, so look for him to start the season there. The 23-year-old power-forward had 52 points (20G / 32A) in 74 games last season.
Wilson also missed Tuesday's morning skate but suited up in Calgary, where he scored for a second straight game. Wilson comes into Thursday's game with four goals and two assists (six points) in 11 games on the season.
Wilson missed the morning skate but the Capitals are expecting him to play in Calgary. Wilson has registered three goals and two assists (five points) in 10 games this season. Wilson is expected to skate on the second line with Evgeny Kuznetsov and Carl Hagelin.
