Gaudette was recently claimed off of waivers from the Blackhawks and will make his debut on Wednesday. Gaudette centred the third line with Alex Formenton and Zach Sanford in Tuesday's practice.
Batherson was activated from the COVID-19 protocol list on Tuesday and will return to the lineup on Wednesday. Batherson was back on the top line with Josh Norris and Brady Tkachuk in Tuesday's practice and has seven goals and nine assists (16 points) in 14 games this season.
Pinto underwent surgery to repair the dislocation he suffered on November 13th and there is no timetable for his return.
Gaudette was traded to the Blackhawks last April, picking up two goals and four assists (six points) in 15 games with Chicago between last year and this year.
Perron was hurt early in Friday's overtime loss to the Blackhawks and did not return. The Blues have yet to provide an update on Perron's status, so it's unclear how serious the injury is. Consider him questionable to play Saturday until they release more information.
Brassard will miss at least one week with the lower-body injury that he suffered on Tuesday. Expect Morgan Frost to remain with the Flyers while Brassard is sidelined.
Brassard left Tuesday's game after playing just 2:42 TOI and did not return. With a back-to-back, Brassard's status for Wednesday's game is understandably uncertain. The Flyers recalled Morgan Frost from the AHL, which is a good indicatory that Brassard won't play.
With Kevin Labanc suspended for one game, Gregor will skate on a line with Tomas Hertl. Gregor has had a nice start to his season in the AHL, leading the Barracuda with 12 points (4G / 8A) in eight games.
Cousins has missed the last four games with an upper-body injury but practiced fully with the Predators in Montreal for the past two days and should play Saturday. Cousins has one goal and two assists in 12 games this season.
With the Canucks back on home ice on Wednesday, Hamonic was recalled and is expected to draw back into the lineup vs. Colorado. Hamonic has one assist in four games with Vancouver this season.
Pilon was a third-round pick in 2016 and appeared in one NHL game with Washington a season ago. Through 13 AHL games this season, the 23-year-old has leads Hershey with 11 points (5G / 6A).
