Hornek has missed the last four games but will play tonight vs. the Wild. Hronek is expected to be paired with Madison Bowey and should re-claim his spot on the top power-play unit. Hronek has just three assists in his last 14 games.

Demko allowed three goals on 40 shots in the Canucks overtime win in Montreal on Tuesday. It was an outstanding game for Demko, who will likely start every game until Jacob Markstrom is back in a minimum of two weeks. Demko has gone 4-5-1 with a 3.25 GAA and .904 SV% on the road this year but is a terrific option tonight in Ottawa.

Hronek has missed the last four games but was on the ice for Wednesday's practice and could play Thursday. Hronek skated in a non-contact sweater and head coach Jeff Blashill has listed him as questionable for tomorrow's game vs. the Wild.

Demko allowed five goals on 28 shots in the Canucks loss to the Ducks on February 16th. With Jacob Markstrom hurt, Demko will start tonight in Montreal and will look to snap his two-game losing streak. The 24-year-old is 3-5-1 with a 3.29 GAA and .902 SV% on the road this season and Montreal comes in having lost five of their last seven (2-4-1).

The Kings selected Forbort 15th overall in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft. He’s had trouble staying in the lineup this year after playing at least 78 games in each of the previous three seasons. The 27-year-old has one assist in 13 games on the year.

Sherwood has been called up on a number of occasions this season but has yet to appear in a game with the Ducks. He has played 50 career NHL games to-date and has 23 points (16G / 7A) in 37 AHL games this season. He could replace a potential trade chip like Derek Grant in their last game before the deadline.






Wolanin has missed the first four and a half months of the season after suffering a shoulder injury in training camp. He'll go back to the AHL to get some games in before likely returning to the Senators for the final few months of the 2020 campaign. He had 31 points (7G / 24A) in 40 AHL games a season ago.

Boeser was forced to leave Saturday’s game with an upper-body injury and was placed on IR on Sunday. His movement to IR means that he will miss at least two games and the Canucks will re-evaluate him prior to next Sunday’s game vs. the Ducks. The move also opens up a roster spot to call-up reinforcements from Utica (AHL).


Sherwood suited up for 50 NHL games last year but has spent the entire 2019-20 season in the AHL, picking up 21 points (14G / 7A) in 30 games. He'll replace Daniel Sprong on the Ducks active roster.


Di Giuseppe has scored 14 goals with 12 assists (26 points) in 43 games with the Wolf Pack this season. With Chris Kreider battling an upper-body injury, Di Giuseppe could make his Rangers debut on Monday. He has 41 points (14G / 27A) in 150 career NHL games.


Forbort is expected to be scratched in favour of Joakim Ryan, who returns from a knee injury. Head coach Todd McLellan said that the timing of the bye week and All-Star break "didn't work in Forbort's favour" after working his way back into playing shape after missing the first 43 games of the season with a back injury.
