Kassian was hurt in a fight with Erik Gudbranson early in Monday's win in Ottawa. Head coach Tippett called him week-to-week, so look for Alex Chiasson to draw into the Oilers lineup on Tuesday.



Galchenyuk sat as a healthy scratch during the first two games of the season but will replace Tim Stützle (undisclosed) in the lineup on Tuesday. Galchenyuk, who 24 points (8G / 16A) in 59 games with the Penguins and Wild last season, will skate on the second line and second PP unit.



Little has been dealing with concussion-like symptoms since taking a puck to the head last November and hasn't played since. Doctors have advised Little not to play in the 2021 season, so unfortunately this could be the end of the 32-year-old's career. Paul Stastny was acquired to serve as the Jets' No.2 centre, a role typically filled by Little.



Little has not played since taking a puck to the ear on November 5 and will miss the 2020 playoffs. With Little out, the Jets are left with Mark Scheifele, Cody Eakin, Adam Lowry and Nick Shore as their four centres.

Tendeck was selected in the sixth-round inn 2018 and just finished his fourth full season in the WHL, going 18-13-2 with a 2.29 GAA and .920 SV% with the Vancouver Giants. He will likely report to Tucson (AHL).

Dauphin is a former second-round pick, who has appeared in 35 career NHL games to-date. The 25-year-old spent all of 2019-20 in the AHL, compiling 14 goals and 17 assists (31 points) in 58 games with the Milwaukee Admirals and Laval Rocket.



Kassian was handed a seven-game suspension in Tampa Bay on February 13th but is set to return to the lineup tonight vs. Winnipeg. Kassian, who has 30 points (14G / 16A) in 52 games this season, is expected to play on the third line with Riley Sheahan and Josh Archibald.

Ladd, who has played in just two NHL games and 34 AHL games this season, will be with the Islanders for the rest of the season following Monday's call-up. During his time in the AHL, he was second on the team with 11 goals, second only to the Kieffer Bellows, who he is replacing on the roster.

Ladd played 11:25 TOI vs. the Red Wings on Friday but heads back to the AHL ahead of Sunday's game vs. the Sharks. Kieffer Bellows was recalled from Bridgeport to take his spot on the roster.
