Status Report
Zach Hyman skated with the team this morning but did not participate in line rushes. His potential return could be as early as Thursday against the Columbus Blue Jackets or Saturday against the Carolina Hurricanes. Hyman’s last appearance was in the Western Conference Final.
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins will likely be sidelined for at least another week due to injury. Meanwhile, Tyson Foerster, recently activated from injured reserve, is a game-time decision due to a lower-body injury sustained earlier this month.
This matchup promises to be a pivotal game for both teams as they navigate challenges and aim to secure valuable points in the standings.
