Ullmark has been out since February 25th but appears set to start Saturday vs. the Bruins. Ullmark was steady early in the season, going 5-4-2 with a 2.44 GAA and .919 SV% but the wheels have completely fallen off in his absence.

Eller continues to battle through a lower-body injury and will miss his fifth consecutive game on Thursday. The Capitals have not provided many updates on Eller, so he remains day-to-day and questionable to play in the second half of their back-to-back tomorrow.

Eller will miss his third straight game on Friday, which makes him questionable to play Saturday as well. With Eller out, the Capitals are expected to stick with 11 forwards and seven defensemen.

Eller returned from a personal matter on Saturday but was hurt early in the first period and did not return. The Capitals have listed him as day-to-day and unavailable for Monday's game, so look for Washington to dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen.

Cozens left Thursday's game with an upper-body injury following a hit from Zach Aston-Reese and it will keep him out of Saturday's rematch. Riley Sheahan is expected to centre the top line with Cozens and Jack Eichel out.

Cozens was hurt on a hit from Zach Aston-Reese on Thursday and was not on the ice for Friday's practice. Cozens, who is still being evaluated, is considered day-to-day, so don't expect to see him on Saturday.


Cozens did not play Sunday vs. the Flyers but will play Tuesday in New York. Cozens is expected to replace Casey Mittelstadt and skate on the third line with Cody Eakin and Tobias Rieder. The rookie forward has three goals and one assist in 14 games.

Ullmark was hurt while making a remarkable save on Thursday and keeping the puck out of the net will cost him at least one month. With Ullmark out, Carter Hutton will become the Sabres' No.1 netminder with Jonas Johansson serving as the No.2.

Ullmark was hurt in the first period of Thursday’s game and did not return for the second period. Ullmark is being evaluated on Friday and has already been ruled out for this weekend’s back-to-back vs. the Flyers.


Giroux has been out since February 7th but it looks like he'll return to the lineup Wednesday vs. the Rangers. Look for Giroux, who has 11 points (1G / 10A) in 13 games, is expected to skate with Kevin Hayes and Nolan Patrick.



Chabot has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury but should play Tuesday vs. Montreal. Chabot was on the ice for the Senators' morning skate and while he's officially considered a game-time decision, head coach DJ Smith said that there's a "pretty good chance" that he's back in. Chabot, who has three goals and six assists (nine points) in 17 games, would be replaced by Braydon Coburn if he can't go.
