Petry skated on a pair with Ben Chiarot at practice on Thursday and is expected to make his return to the lineup after being unable to play on Wednesday due to an upper-body injury. In 27 games this season, Petry has ten points (1G / 9A), 34 shots, 34 hits, and 49 blocks.

With Olli Maatta and Jeff Petry expected to return to the lineup on Friday, Edvinsson is expected to serve as a healthy scratch. Edvinsson played the last two games from the Red Wings, averaging over 14 minutes of time-on-ice, recording one point (0G / 1A), and registering three hits.

Lyon has been on injured reserve with an upper-body injury after exiting a December 16th contest against the Philadelphia Flyers in the second period. In his absence, the Red Wings, also without Ville Husso, went 1-5-0 while relying predominantly on James Reimer. Before his injury, Lyon was stellar, allowing one goal or fewer in four of his last six games (4-2-0), posting a tremendous .938 SV%. The Red Wings will face off against the Nashville Predators, who have lost two straight games (0-2-0).

Veleno played 14:07 time-on-ice on Saturday but suffered an undisclosed injury at some point that will keep him out of the lineup on Wednesday against the Minnesota Wild. The 23-year-old centerman has four points (1G / 3A), a -10 plus/minus, and 15 shots in his last eight games.

Petry played only 11:53 in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the New Jersey Devils before exiting with an undisclosed injury. He played 13 consecutive games for the Red Wings, recording four points (1G / 3A), 15 shots, and a +2 plus/minus rating.

Olli Maatta picked up a knock in Friday's win over the Flyers, so Edvinsson will likely make his season debut on Saturday. The 2021 No.6 overall pick has been great in the AHL this season, leading all Griffins defensemen with 16 points (6G / 10A) in 25 games. Edvinsson had two goals in nine games with the Red Wings a season ago.

Talbot will return to the Kings' starters crease after backing up last game as he takes on Seattle Wednesday. The 36-year-old signed a one-year, $1 million contract in the offseason which has payed off fruitfully for the Kings as Talbot has been one of the leagues best goaltenders with his 13-5-2 record, .926 SV% and 2.02 GAA. He will host the Seattle Kraken Wednesday, who have lost two straight games and are struggling to score being 28th in the NHL in goals per game (2.7).

Husso surrendered two goals on nine shots before leaving the game against the Anaheim Ducks on Monday with a lower-body injury. With Alex Lyon expected to be out of the lineup until after Christmas, James Reimer will likely start at least two of the next three games for the Red Wings heading into the holiday break. The Red Wings signed goaltender Michael Hutchinson on Tuesday to serve as a backup to Reimer in the interim.

Husso surrendered two goals on nine shots before leaving the game. Assuming he is unable to return, we can expect to receive some sort of update on his status following the completion of Monday's game. James Reimer entered the Red Wings' crease in place of Husso.

Holl will return to the Red Wings' lineup on Monday after sitting out Saturday's game in Philadelphia. The former Maple Leaf has zero goals and three assists across 22 games in his first season as a Red Wing.

Lyon exited Saturday's game for the Red Wings in the second period after saving 14 of 15 shots (.933 SV%) with a lower-body injury. It was announced before Monday's game that he is week-to-week after he did not participate in practice on Monday. Ville Husso will likely see the majority of the action while Lyon is out, with James Reimer serving as the backup.

Snively played the last three games for the Capitals, averaging less than nine minutes per night, scoring zero points and zero shots. He will return to the Hershey Bears of the AHL where he has 21 points (7G / 14A) in 25 games this season.

Tarasenko was a late scratch on Friday and subsequently did not play on Sunday as he tended to family matters away from the team. He was back at practice on Monday and will likely return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Arizona Coyotes. After averaging only 1.4 shot per game during a seven-game stretch with three points (0G / 3A), Tarasenko has been more involved lately, seeing his ice-time increase by 97 seconds per game, scoring six points (3G / 3A) and averaging 3.1 shots in seven games.
