Rooney will miss at least one week with an upper-body injury, so Jonny Brodzinski will replace him on the Rangers fourth line.

Rooney will miss at least one week with an upper-body injury, so Jonny Brodzinski will replace him on the Rangers fourth line.
Mantha is listed as a game-time decision for Thursday's game but being activated from IR clears the way and suggests that he will play tonight. Mantha is expected to skate on the second line with Nicklas Backstrom and TJ Oshie and will be on the second power-play unit.
Mantha was on the ice for Thursday's morning skate and all signs are pointing towards him playing for the first time since undergoing shoulder surgery in early November. Head coach Peter Laviolette would not commit to Mantha playing, so consider him a game-time decision.
Mantha was a full participant on Wednesday and could be back in the Capitals lineup on Thursday. Head coach Peter Laviolette did not rule Mantha out, so monitor his status during Thursday's morning skate.
The Flames drafted Kerins in the sixth-round in 2020 and he has exploded in 2022. The 19-year-old currently leads the Son Greyhounds (OHL) with 84 points (33G / 51A) in 50 games.
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.
Barrie has missed the last five games with an upper-body injury but is set to play Wednesday in Washington. It's unclear whether or not Barrie will reclaim his spot on the top PP unit or not, but it seems likely. He had three goals and 14 assists (17 points) in 35 games before getting hurt.
Frost missed Monday's practice and remains under the weather, so he'll be a game-time decision vs. the Jets. If Frost can't play, Connor Bunnaman will move up to the third line and Jackson Cates will draw into the lineup.
