Hagg suffered a lower-body injury in Winnipeg and is expected to miss multiple months. Colin Miller will draw back into the lineup to replace Hagg on Thursday.










Schmid was a fifth-round pick (No.136 overall) in 2018 and has been terrific in his first professional season. The 21-year-old has gone 8-0-2 with a 1.60 GAA and .944 SV% in 10 starts with Utica. He will likely serve as Mackenzie Blackwood's backup on Friday.





Marner landed on IR this morning and head coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters that he is expected to miss at least three weeks. Wayne Simmonds will take Marner's spot on the top line on Tuesday because Jason Spezza will be suspended.

Marner will miss his third straight game on Tuesday but should be eligible to be activated from IR for Thursday's game if he's healthy enough. Alex Steeves was recalled from the AHL to take Marner's spot on the roster and could make his NHL debut vs. the Blue Jackets.
