Hintz (lower-body) took part in warm-ups but left after a few minutes and will be out for Game 3 in Edmonton on Sunday. The 28-year-old Finnish forward will be replaced by Oskar Back on Dallas' top line and is hopeful to return for Game 4 on Tuesday.
Hintz left Game 2 with a lower-body injury after taking a slash from Darnell Nurse, but was seen walking into the arena without a walking boot and is still a game-time decision. The 28-year-old center has five goals and 11 points in 15 games so far in the playoffs.
Reinhart missed Florida's Game 3 win with a lower-body injury but is only considered day-to-day going forward and has not been ruled out for Game 4 on Monday. The 29-year-old has been replaced by Jesper Boqvist in Florida's top six for the time being but will be welcomed back with open arms if he can go on Monday. After putting up 81 points in 79 games played during the regular season, he has four goals and 11 points in 14 games so far in the playoffs.
Hintz left during Game 2 after getting slashed by Darnell Nurse and did not return. There were no indications whether or not Hintz would be available for Game 3, so consider him a game-time decision.
Chatfield did not take part in the Hurricanes' morning skate, but remains a game-time decision for Game 3 in Florida. Chatfield has been sidelined by an undisclosed injury since Game 4 vs. the Capitals.
Walker suffered an undisclosed injury in Game 2 and will be a game-time decision for Game 3 in Florida. Walker took part in the Hurricanes' morning skate, a good sign that he will be available tonight. Expect Alexander Nikishin to suit up if Walker is ruled out.
Reinhart played just 5:37 in Game 2 before leaving with a lower-body injury. Reinhart was hurt on a hit from Sebastian Aho and is considered day-to-day. Jesper Boqvist will replace him on the top line and Evan Rodrigues is expected to replace him on PP1 for Game 3.
Walker was hurt in Game 2 and was limited to just 9:52 TOI. Head coach Rod Brind'Amour called Walker "iffy" to play in Game 3, so there's a chance Alexander Nikishin gets back in the lineup after being a healthy scratch in Games 1 and 2 vs. the Panthers.
Jarvis left Game 2 with an undisclosed injury but eventually returned to the ice. Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said Jarvis "should be fine" for Game 3. Jarvis has two assists, four shots and five hits through two games vs. Florida.
Brown did not take part in Friday's morning skate but he'll remain in the lineup for Game 2 in Dallas. Brown played 13:48 TOI after being a game-time decision in Game 1.
Reinhart was forced to leave Game 2 vs. Carolina after just eight shifts and 5:37 TOI due to a lower-body injury and was not able to return. If the 29-year-old is forced to miss some time, it will be a massive loss for Florida, as the top-line forward had four goals and 11 points in 14 games played so far in the playoffs before the injury.
Jankowski will make his first appearance since Game 1 of Carolina's second round matchup with the Capitals. Jesperi Kotkaniemi will sit in his place.
Ekholm last played on April 11th due to an undisclosed injury, but has been a full participant at practice the previous several days as he nears a return. The 34-year-old has been a massive loss for Edmonton's blueline after he posted nine goals, 33 points and a +11 plus/minus in 65 games during the regular season.
Chatfield has missed the last two games with a lower-body injury, but skated on Wednesday and head coach Rod Brind'Amour said that "he was better. I'd put him at day-to-day now, so that's a good sign." Expect Chatfield to replace Scott Morrow in the lineup if he's able to play in Game 2.
Chatfield has been dealing with a lower-body injury since Game 4 vs. the Capitals and was questionable to play in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Scott Morrow will dress in his place.
Chatfield has been dealing with a lower-body injury since Game 4 vs. the Capitals and is questionable to play in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals. He was not on the ice for Monday's practice, and Scott Morrow skated in his spot, so look for Morrow to dress if Chatfield is unavailable.
Ekholm last played on April 11th due to an undisclosed injury, but was a full participant for the first time since his injury at practice on Monday. The 34-year-old has been a massive loss for Edmonton's blueline after he posted nine goals, 33 points and a +11 plus/minus in 65 games during the regular season.
Rodrigues had missed Florida's previous two games with an undisclosed injury but was a full participant in the morning skate on Sunday and will play in Game 7 vs. Toronto. The 31-year-old sparkplug has struggled to produce offensively this postseason, with just three assists and a -2 plus/minus in nine games while mostly occupying a top-six role.
Stolarz left Game 1 with a concussion but will make an unexpected return to the Maple Leafs' lineup he backs up Joseph Woll for Game 7 vs Florida. The towering netminder has an impressive 2.19 GAA during the playoffs to go alongside his 4-2-0 record and .901 SV%.
