Gilbert was with the Blackhawks in Prague so the “recall” was just a formality. Gilbert was a third-round pick in 2015 and will play in his second career NHL game because Calvin de Haan and Connor Murphy are injured to begin the season. The 22-year-old blueliner had 14 points (5G / 9A) in 63 games in his first AHL season (2018-19).

For the third straight season, Bishop failed to start 60-plus games, but he led the NHL in SV% (.934) and was second in GAA (1.98). Durability and usage is a small concern with Bishop, but he is consistently among the best goalies in the NHL, making him a strong No.1 fantasy option. Bishop was 17-7-2 with a 1.90 GAA, .937 SV% and six shutouts on home-ice in 2018-19.

This comes as no surprise because Tuch is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks. Tuch is officially listed as week-to-week, so expect an update on his status in mid-October. Cody Glass will get a huge early-season look while Tuch is on the mend.

Sheahan was set to open the season as the Oilers’ fourth-line centre but will miss at least one week. Colby Cave will take over as Edmonton’s fourth-line pivot while Sheahan is out.

Tuch crashed heavily into the end boards in the Golden Knights preseason finale and will miss the first few weeks of the regular season. Tuch’s injury is a huge blow to Vegas but it does allow Cody Glass to start the season in the NHL.

Tuch crashed hard into the end boards and left the ice during Friday night’s preseason game. The Golden Knights have listed their right-winger as “week-to-week.” With Tuch out, Reilly Smith is guaranteed a spot in the top-6 and it opens the door for Cody Glass to start the year in the NHL.

Sheahan played in Pittsburgh and Florida last season, totalling just 19 points (9G / 10A) in 82 games. He was once a first-round pick of Ken Holland’s in Detroit and the familiarity with the 27-year-old led to him signing in Edmonton. He never developed like the Red Wings had hoped, posting a career-high of just 36 points, so look for him to settle in as the Oilers No.4 centre in 2020.

Byram was picked No.4 overall this summer after scoring 26 goals with 45 assists (71 points) in 67 games with the Vancouver Giants. Byram was considered the most NHL-ready defenseman in the draft but could be one-year away from cracking the Avalanche lineup in 2020.

Aube-Kubel had 16 goals and 14 assists (30 points) in 54 AHL games and appeared in the first nine NHL games of his career with Philadelphia in 2019. The 23-year-old doesn’t have great size but can play a solid two-way game with some offensive flair for the bottom-6. He will likely start 2020 in the AHL but could be one of the Flyers first call-ups.

Reimer has two years remaining on his contract that carries a $3.4M cap-hit and the Panthers were trying hard to move it ahead of free agency. Reimer, who went 13-12-5 with a 3.09 GAA and .900 SV% last year, will likely serve as Carolina’s No.2 option between the pipes in 2020.

Bishop was forced to leave Game 6 after being hit near the collarbone by a Colton Parayko slap-shot. Bishop allowed four goals on 20 shots before leaving the 4-1 loss with under two minutes left in the second period. Bishop is ready to start Game 7 in St. Louis—he has gone 4-1-1 while allowing a combined 17 goals on 190 shots (.911 SV%) in six road games in the playoffs.
