Kadri suffered an upper-body injury vs. the Sharks on March 31st and despite finishing that game, is going to sideline him for an extended period of time. The Avalanche are expecting him back for the playoffs, whether that's game 1 or not remains to be seen.
Sharangovich was hurt early in Tuesday's game against the Rangers but was on the ice for Thursday's morning skate and is expected to skate on the top-line vs. the Canadiens. Sharangovich has been playing very well as of late, scoring seven goals with five assists (12 points) in his last 14 games.
Meloche has been a regular for the Sharks recently but with Mario Ferraro back and Ryan Merkley drawing into the lineup on Tuesday, Meloche will be scratched vs. the Oilers.
Kadri was missing from Friday's practice and will not play Saturday vs. the Penguins due to an upper-body injury that he picked up on Thursday. Alex Newhook will likely move up to centre the Avalanche second line.
Bahl will likely serve as a reserve defenseman in Toronto on Wednesday. The 2018 second-round pick was scored three goals with 12 assists (15 points) in 49 AHL games this season. He has suited up in four games with the Devils this season and 11 games in the last two years combined.
Scott Laughton left Thursday's loss in Florida after falling awkwardly into the boards, so Frost is presumably Laughton's replacement for Saturday's game in Carolina. Frost has split his season between the AHL and NHL, scoring two goals with five assists (seven points) in his 30 games with the Flyers.
Bean has been sidelined by a groin injury since January 30th but will replace Gavin Bayreuther in the lineup on Monday. Bean has scored four goals with 11 assists (15 points) while averaging 21:14 TOI/gm in 41 games this season.
Lomberg missed Saturday's game vs. the Red Wings and was placed on IR on Sunday, meaning he will miss at least the first two games of the week. Moving him to IR and losing Olli Juolevi on waivers opened up two roster spots to recall Spencer Knight and add the recently signed Petteri Lindbohm to the active roster.
Lomberg was a healthy scratch vs. the Blue Jackets but will replace Frank Vatrano in the lineup on Saturday. Lomberg has 11 points (4G / 7A) in 39 games this season while averaging 11:39 TOI/gm.
Meloche left Thursday's game vs. the Islanders in the first period and did not return. Meloche was ruled out on Friday and it looks like Radim Simek will replace him vs. Boston.
Frost has been in the lineup for four straight games but will sit on Saturday with Derick Brassard returning from an ongoing hip issue.
Farabee missed the last 11 games with an upper-body injury but will play Saturday vs. the Capitals. Farabee, who will replace Max Willman in the lineup, has 11 goals and seven assists (18 points) in 33 games this season.
Ritchie was supposed to make his debut on Wednesday but had to sit out due to immigration issues. Ritchie, who has two goals and seven assists in 33 games this season, will make his debut on a line with Barrett Hayton and Loui Eriksson.
Ritchie was acquired from the Maple Leafs on Monday in a trade that sent Ilya Lyubushkin to Toronto. He will replace Andrew Ladd in the lineup and will most likely start in the bottom-6. Ritchie has just two goals with seven assists (nine points) in 33 games this season.
Ritchie signed a two-year, $5.0M deal with the Maple Leafs in the offseason but had a hard time finding a full-time spot in the lineup. Overall, he had nine points (2G / 7A) in 33 games with the Maple Leafs before being waived and sent to the Marlies. He had one goal in two AHL games. Ritchie should have no problem finding playing time with the Coyotes.
Derick Brassard found himself back on the shelf over the weekend, so Frost may be back in the Flyers' lineup on Tuesday. Frost has split his time between the AHL and NHL pretty equally this season. He's posted 18 points (5G / 13A) in 20 AHL games and has seven points (2G / 5A) in 26 NHL games.
