Kotkaniemi is "nicked up" with an undisclosed injury, so he's not expected to play Monday in Arizona. With both Kotkaniemi and Jordan Staal out, look for Derek Stepan and Steven Lorentz to draw back in.

Staal left Saturday's game in Carolina after being crushed by Cale Makar and did not return. The Hurricanes called the update "positive," so it doesn't sound like they expect him to miss an extended period of time.

Andersen suffered an injury vs. the Avalanche on Saturday and will be re-evaluated in one week. Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said they will "see where he's at" next week, in the meantime the Hurricanes will roll with Antti Raanta as their starter and Pyotr Kochetkov as his backup.

Stillman will be scratched with Calvin de Haan drawing back into the lineup against the Flames. Stillman has just one goal and one assist in his last 21 games.

Kotkaniemi has been out since March 28th but will replace Steven Lorentz in the lineup on Thursday. Kotkaniemi has 26 points (11G / 15A) in 63 games this season while playing primarily in the bottom-6 and PP2.

Carrier has been sidelined since March 30th by a lower-body injury and was one of three players added to LTIR on Tuesday to make room for Mark Stone to be activated for their game in Vancouver. As a result, Carrier will likely be out until the playoffs or more cap gymnastics will be required.

Orlov was not on the ice for the Capitals' morning skate but the team is still hopeful that he'll play vs. the Flyers. Orlov will be replaced by Matt Irwin if he can't go but monitor his status as the Capitals hit the ice for warmups at 6:30 PM ET.
