Kindel sat as a healthy scratch on Thursday, but he'll replace Philip Tomasino in the lineup on Saturday. Kindel has scored one goal in four games so far this season.

Dickinson has been battling an upper-body injury, and missed practice on Saturday, setting him up to be a game-time decision on Sunday.

Bryson was hurt early in the first period of Saturday's game vs. the Panthers. He took an awkward fall into the boards after being hit by Jonah Gadjovich. Zach Metsa is the only reserve defenseman on the Sabres' roster right now, so he could be in line to make his NHL debut on Monday.

Dubois will miss his third consecutive game with a lower-body injury and head coach Spencer Carbery said he wasn't sure if he'd be available for Tuesday's game vs. Seattle.

Kane got tripped up in overtime on Friday and crashed hard into the end boards. Kane suffered an upper-body injury on the collision and will not play Sunday vs. the Oilers. Jonatan Berggren skated in Kane's spot on the Red Wings' second line in Saturday's practice.

Howard has been held pointless in his first four NHL games and has seen his ice time decrease in the last two games. He'll be replaced by Curtis Lazar, who will be making his Oilers debut on Saturday.

Lazar spent last season with the Devils, scoring two goals and three assists in 48 games. He'll make his Oilers debut tonight, replacing Ike Howard on the fourth line.

Lindholm has missed the last three games with a lower-body injury, but has a chance to return Saturday in Colorado. Lindholm was skating on the second pairing and PP2 in the morning skate, a sign that he'll be in the lineup this evening.

Boqvist played in 17 games with the Islanders last season, tallying two goals and six assists (eight points). He will draw into the lineup on Saturday because Alexander Romanov is day-to-day with an upper-body injury.

Romanov missed Friday's practice and will not play in Saturday's game vs. the Senators. With Romanov day-to-day, Adam Boqvist will make his season debut on Saturday.

Lundkvist left Thursday's game vs. the Canucks with a lower-body injury and did not return. He missed Friday's practice and is questionable to play Saturday. If he's unavailable, look for Ilya Lyubushkin to draw back into the lineup.

Harley missed Friday's practice due to illness and will be a game-time decision on Saturday. The Stars were hopeful that he would be in the lineup after yesterday's practice session.

Duchene missed the Stars' last game with an upper-body injury, but has been skating with the team since getting hurt on Tuesday. He skated in his usual spot in Friday's practice, but remains a game-time decision on Saturday.

Ahcan did not appear in an NHL game during his call-up. He returns to the AHL, where he has four points (1G / 3A) in two games this season.
