Zuccarello did not skated for the last two days and missed last night's game, but he is back on the ice with the team this morning, which suggests he could be back in the lineup on Wednesday vs. the Red Wings.
Tarasneko remained red-hot on Monday, scoring one goal and one assist to give him eight points (6G / 2A) in the last four games and seven goals and six assists in 11 games on the season. He scored a goal-of-the-year candidate last night vs. the Rangers, proving he is playing with a tremendous amount of confidence right now.
Zuccarello was reportedly spotted limping around the Rangers dressing room on Sunday. He will not play tonight, so Ryan Malone will slide into the lineup, despite clearing waivers this afternoon. Consider Zuccarello day-to-day.
Zuccarello was not on the ice for the Rangers morning skate because he was "receiving treatment". If Zuccarello can't go and Ryan Malone is claimed off of waivers at noon, the Rangers will have to recall a forward from Hartford (AHL).
Zuccarello is "receiving treatment" this morning according to the Rangers. Alain Vigneault will address the media after the skate at which point we will update whether Zucc will be in the lineup tonight or not.
Brodin missed the last two games with general body soreness and what is believed to be a hand related injury. With Jared Spurgeon out, it would be key for the Wild to get Brodin back vs. the Stars.
Spurgeon was reportedly late in Thursday's game and it will cost him a few games. There is no word on the nature or severity of his injury, but he should be considered day-to-day. Jonas Brodin could be back in the lineup on Saturday to fill-in for Spurgeon.
Bogosian was not on the ice for the Jets morning skate so it does not seem likely that he will play, but we will wait for warmups. If he can't go, Adam Pardy will be in the lineup.
There is still no word on exactly what is ailing Brodin after he crashed into the boards heavily on Monday. However, he won't be in the lineup for the second straight game and should be considered day-to-day until there is more information released on the severity of his injury.
Brodin crashed violently into the end-boards after being checked from behind by Chris Kreider on Monday. He returned for the third period of that game, but was too banged to play last night. Brodin reportedly had his left hand bandaged up after Monday's game, but it sounds like he is battling a a couple of minor injuries.
Blues' head coach Ken Hitchcock said that Tarasenko had a few rough days battling illness, but feels good enough to play tonight. Tarasenko skated on with Jori Lehtera and Alex Steen in practice this morning, so expect to see him there tonight. He has one goal and four assists in seven games.
Tarasenko missed practice on Monday and was listed as questionable for tonight, but his participation in the morning skate suggests that he will be in the lineup. The Blues did not provide a definitive work on Tarasenko's status, so he will likely be a game-time decision.
There is no word on when Bogosian suffered the upper-body injury, but he will not play tonight, which means that Adam Pardy will draw into the lineup. Bogosian is listed as day-to-day.
The Blues have been hit hard by illness recently and it could hold Tarasenko out of tomorrow's meeting with the Stars. He has one goal and four assists in seven games, but keep an eye on him during tomorrow's morning skate.
The Blues are not in action tonight, so do not be too concerned, it is likely just a maintenance day for Tarasenko. He will probably be back on the ice for the Blues morning skate tomorrow and play vs. the Stars.
Foligno missed Monday's matinee vs. the Ducks, but will be back in the lineup tonight vs. the Hurricanes. He will skate on the left wing with Cody Hodgson and Chris Stewart.
Zuccarello missed Sunday's game vs. Toronto with a shoulder injury that he suffered on Saturday. Zucc's presence this morning is a good sign that the injury is not serious and he could be back in the lineup on Tuesday vs. the Islanders. Zuccarello has yet to record a point this season and is coming off of a minus-4 performance vs. the Blue Jackets.
The Sabres said that Foligno is "banged up" so he will sit out this afternoon with Brian Flynn getting in the lineup. Consier Foligno day-to-day.
Zucarello is believed to have suffered a shoulder injury on Saturday vs. the Blue Jackets and that will hold him out of Sunday's game vs. Toronto. He has no points and a minus-4 rating in two games. Kevin Hayes will make his NHL debut in Zucc's absence.
Brodin, 21, is in his third NHL season and has one assist through two games after scoring eight goals with 11 assists (19 points) in 79 games a season ago. This is a very good deal for both sides as they have locked up a key member of their blueline for the next six years.
