Kadri was on the ice in a non-contact sweater this morning and remains day-to-day with a lower-body injury. Kadri won't play vs. the Flames but his availability for the morning skate suggests that he will return to the lineup later this week.
Ritchie was hurt early vs. The Capitals on Friday and will miss at least six weeks. With Ritchie sidelined long-term, the Ducks have recalled Sam Carrick from San Diego (AHL).
Stone was a healthy scratch vs the Sabres on Thursday but is expected to replace Oscar Kylington on Saturday night. Stone doesn't provide a lot of offence, having scored just one goal with two assists in 15 games this season.
Kadri remains day-to-day with a lower-body injury so he will miss his second straight game when the Avalanche takes on the Bruins on Saturday. With Kadri out, J.T. Compher will be stick on the second-line and Joonas Donskoi will be on the top power-play.
Rooney has missed the last seven games with an upper-body injury but will replace Jack Hughes (lower-body) in the lineup on Saturday. Rooney has just one assist in 13 games this season.
Huberdeau missed Friday's practice but head coach Joel Quenneville said that he should be good to play vs. the Predators. Huberdeau enters the weekend with five goals and 13 assists (18 points) in his last 13 games.
Weegar missed the last seven games but will play Saturday vs. the Predators. Weegar has three goals on seven assists (10 points) while averaging 19:56 ATOI in 17 games this season.
Mantha was hurt early in Saturday's game in New Jersey on Saturday and is expected to be reevaluated in a "couple weeks." With Mantha out, the Red Wings called up their top prospect, Filip Zadina, who could get an extended look in the top-6.
Head coach Jeff Blashill didn't have much of an update on Mantha but did say that "he definitely won't play (Sunday)" and that he'll be "out for a little bit of time." With Adam Erne also hurt, the Red Wings will likely need to recall a forward for Sunday's game or dress seven defensemen.
Weegar has missed the last three games and head coach Joel Quenneville expects him to miss at least one more week (four games). They do expect him to return to practice sometime throughout the week, which leaves the door open for the defenseman to play next week.
Hunt appeared in all 20 games this season, picking up just four assists and 32 shots while playing 10:47 ATOI. He goes back to Springfield, where he dominated last season, posting 44 points (23G / 21A) in 51 games.
Frost, who has picked No.27 overall in 2017, is one of the Flyers' top prospects and has registered 12 points (5G / 7A) in his first 16 career AHL games. Frost takes Carsen Twarynski's spot on the roster and should make his NHL debut in Florida on Tuesday.
Rooney was not on the ice for Thursday's practice and likely won't play in at least one of the two games over the weekend. Jesper Boqvist will draw back into the lineup vs. the Penguins.
Weegar did not play in Boston on Tuesday and will likely miss another week. Weegar was struck in the head by a puck in New York on Sunday and will continue to be replaced by Keith Yandle on the top-pair.
Rooney played in eight straight games but will sit as a healthy scratch on Friday night. Rooney will be replaced by Jesper Bratt, who sat out of the last two games with an upper-body injury.
Hanley recorded one assist in two games with the Stars earlier in October before returning to Texas. He was held pointless in two AHL games but returns to the Stars where he will likely serve as an extra defenseman on Thursday.
Farabee was one of the final cuts in training camp and one of the Flyers’ best prospects. After scoring just 15 goals in six games (2.50 GF/gm) the Flyers are looking to inject some offence into their lineup. Farabee was a first-round pick (No.14 overall) in 2018 and has registered three goals and one assist in his first four AHL games. The 19-year-old is expected to make his debut on the third line (with Kevin Hayes and Scott Laughton) and the first power-play unit.
Stone has been a healthy scratch for the first three games of the season but will replace Oliver Kylington in the lineup on Thursday. Stone had just five assists in 14 NHL games last season.
