Get him back in your lineup

Hall will not play today so get him out of your lineups if it isn't too late. He isn't expected to be out long-term, the Oilers just don't want to force him into action when he isn't at 100%.

The Wild and Oilers play late on Sunday so you may want to cautiously sit Hall unless word on his status comes out before the first games. At the very least, it looks as if Hall will only be day-to-day instead of going on IR.

Burns has an undisclosed injury and won't be in the Sharks lineup for the next couple of games. Irwin will likely step into the lineup for Burns.

The often injured Burns left Saturday's game after only playing 2:07 and did not return. The injury is a lower-body injury and it is not known how much time he will miss. We do know he will not be in the lineup in the Sharks next two games. Burns has zero points and is a -5 in 6 games this season.

Keep Hall on your bench for 2 games.

This is an AHL trade. Tokarski is 18-8-4 with a 2.46 GAA and .900 SV% this season in the AHL. Tokarski could be moved up to the NHL to backup Carey Price should Peter Budaj continue to struggle.

Burns had been skating as an extra at practice but was paired with Stuart today which indicates he is nearing a return. He could suit up tomorrow for the Sharks, but nothing is official. Check back tomorrow for an official word on Burns.

Burns still isn't quite ready for a return but should be back in the next couple of weeks.

This isn't surprising as it was speculated that the only reason he was called up was to keep him on the ice while the Marlies were on the AHL All-Star break.

Still no timetable for Burns return, but the fact that he is skating again is a step in the right direction.

Burns continues to rehab, but when he will be back on the ice is unknown. The Sharks are on a tear right now so I don't foresee them rushing Burns back and risk him re-injuring himself. For now just monitor his status going forward, and pick him up accordingly if he is still available.

Gardiner was sent down last week but then called up during the AHL Allstar break. He will be a game-time decision. Monitor his status before game time.

With the AHL in the middle of their All-Star break this could just be to keep Gardiner on the ice. Of course that remains to be seen, keep an eye on Gardiner's status in the next couple of days.

Gardiner played 20+ minutes last night and finished a -1. Obviously the Maple Leafs coaching staff thought that Gardiner needs some more time to get back into playing shape after the concussion he suffered in December.

Gardiner will make his season debut tonight. It will be the first time Gardiner will have played since suffering a concussion in the AHL on December 8.

Gardiner would have to come back and score before he would be worth a fantasy add.

Gardiner is still young but could grow into a decent fantasy D-man. He had 17 points in 22 games in the AHL before he got hurt. Monitor his return, if he starts to produce he may be worth an add.

Gardiner is still not skating with his teammates but this is a positive sign that he is on his way back for people who have drafted him.

This is the first time Gardiner has skated since DEC 8. He's looking to take the next step in the NHL after scoring 30 pts in 75 games. Could be an okay fantasy option this year when he is healthy.
