Sebastian Aho will be the odd man out of the lineup for the Islanders on Thursday, allowing Bortuzzo to return from a multi-month absence, playing for the first time since January 2nd. The 35-year-old veteran has yet to pick up a point in 15 games this season with both New York and St. Louis.

It has been nearly two months since Timmins last dressed for the Maple Leafs (Jan 20th) but he will get an opportunity on Wednesday as he replaces TJ Brodie in the lineup.

Gregor was a healthy scratch for the first half of the Maple Leafs' back-to-back on Tuesday but will draw back into the lineup for the injured Ryan Reaves (eye) on Wednesday.

Lundkvist has not played since March 8th, missing the last four games, but will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Arizona Coyotes.

Dallas has recalled Matt Murray from the Texas Stars (AHL) to backup Jake Oettinger in the interim.

Fasching was a late addition to the Islanders' lineup after not taking part in line rushes during warmups. Pierre Engvall will sit in his place.
