Wedgewood has gone 8-4-0 with a 2.91 GAA and .907 SV% in 14 games with Rochester this season. With Carter Hutton out with an upper-body injury, look for Wedgewood to backup Linus Ullmark on Saturday.
Schwartz has been out since November 16th and remains day-to-day with an upper-body injury. Schwartz was recently joined by Alex Steen and Robby Fabbri as injured Blues forwards, so Jordan Nolan and Jordan Kyrou were called up from San Antonio (AHL).
Kamenev was in the lineup for 13 straight games, picking up two goals and three assists in the process. Tonight he will be replaced by Sven Andrighetto.
Schwartz was already ruled out for the rest of the week, so moving him to IR simply opens up a roster spot to activate Patrick Maroon from IR for Friday’s game.
Kulak has had a nice start to the season in the AHL, leading all Laval defensemen with 11 points (3G / 8A) in 19 games. There is no word whether or not Kulak will make his Canadiens debut on Friday.
Juulsen was hit in the face by the puck on two separate occasions in just 3:12 TOI. With Juulsen out at least a week, look for Karl Alzner or Xavier Ouellet to draw back into the Canadiens’ lineup on Wednesday.
Schwartz missed Saturday’s game in San Jose and will miss this entire week with an upper-body injury. Head coach Mike Yeo ruled Schwartz out for at least the next four games, so monitor his status as the Blues head into next week.
Juulsen has been out of the lineup for the last two games, but will play in Edmonton. Juulsen will replace Karl Alzner and re-enters the lineup with three points (1G / 2A) in 13 games this season.
Juulsen recorded two assists against the Islanders on Monday but failed to register a point in 16:01 TOI on Tuesday. The young defenseman has played well so far this season, but has come out of the lineup to allow Karl Alzner to play a couple of times and will do so again tonight.
Manson got dinged up on Sunday and is questionable to play Tuesday vs. the Flyers. The Ducks continue to get banged up and if Manson can’t go tonight, Luke Schenn will draw back into the lineup.
Juulsen will miss his second straight game with an upper-body injury, despite skating on Monday and expecting to play tonight. Karl Alzner will remain in the Canadiens lineup with Juulsen sidelined.
Juulsen missed Saturday’s game in Boston, but practiced on Monday and expects to play tomorrow vs. Dallas. Juulsen has registered just one assist and a plus-9 rating in nine games this season.
Juulsen is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury that will force him to miss Saturday’s game in Boston. With Juulsen out, Karl Alzner will draw back into the lineup.
Kamenev was scratched on Wednesday but will replace Gabriel Bourque in the lineup on Friday. Kamenev has yet to record a point and has played just 8:47 TOI/GM through five games this season. He will centre the fourth line with Colin Wilson and Tyson Jost on his wings.
Wolanin had three points (1G / 2A) in 10 games with the Senators last year after turning pro following his Junior year at the University of North Dakota. Wolanin started 2018-19 in the AHL but has been called-up because Mark Borowiecki was suspended for one-game.
Roy was a fourth round pick of the Oilers in 2015 and has started the season with five goals and two assists (seven points) in his first six AHL games. The 21-year-old centre played one game with the Hurricanes last season.
