Tolvanen missed three games while in COVID-19 protocol but is expected to play vs. the Canucks. Tolvanen, who has six goals and nine assists (15 points) in 42 games this season, should be back on the second line with Ryan Johansen and Luke Kunin.

Borgen will not be available for Tuesday's game in Boston, so Connor Carrick was called up to the taxi squad in case they need him.

Mahura has missed the last three games with an upper-body injury but will replace Josh Manson (upper-body) in the lineup on Monday. Mahura has scored one goal with one assist in 14 games this season.

With Kempny out, look for Matt Irwin to draw into the Capitals lineup on Friday.

Oleksiak, who missed practice yesterday due to a non-COVID illness, will be re-evaluated but is doubtful as of now to be in tonight.

Kempny will play for the first time since January 2nd, replacing Dmitry Orlov, who was suspended for two games. Kempny has one assist in three games this season.
