Fleury surrendered six goals on 34 shots in the Penguins’ loss in Detroit back on January 14th. Matt Murray started the last eight games and faced 31 shots last night, so look for Fleury to go tonight in St. Louis.

Bogosian played just 5:33 TOI before leaving Thursday’s game with a rib issue. Bogosian will miss some time because of the injury, but luckily for the Sabres both Jake McCabe and Josh Gorges are set to return to the lineup on Saturday.
Brodin fractured his finger on Tuesday and after being evaluated it was determined that the Wild blueliner will miss at least one month. With Brodin out, Nate Prosser will draw into the lineup on Thursday.
Brodin will see a hand specialist on Wednesday and will miss a number of weeks, but they will determine whether it will be 2-3 weeks or four-plus weeks. Brodin’s absence leaves the Wild to replace nearly 20 minutes on the back-end; Nate Prosser will likely draw into the lineup on Thursday.
