Bogosian has missed the first three games of the season but returned to the ice on Wednesday which is a big step in his return to the lineup. Bogosian was listed as week-to-week and he remains without a firm timetable for return.
Fabbri was injured in the first period of Saturday’s 3-2 loss to the Wild. Blues coach Ken Hitchcock was not impressed with the hit calling it a “shot to the head.” The Blues are considering him day-to-day, but don’t plan on updating his status until he is cleared to return to practice. With Fabbri out, either Scottie Upshall or Scott Gomez are expected to play on Tuesday.
Fabbri left Saturday’s game in the first period after taking an elbow to the head. He played just 3:27 TOI of game two in his nine game NHL tryout. Consider him day-to-day.
Bogosian has had an incredibly difficult time staying healthy throughout his career. He missed 20 games last season and a combined 96 games over the last three seasons. He played massive minutes (26:34 TOI/GM) with the Sabres last year and is expected to be leaned o heavily this year. His absence means the Sabres will lead to increased roles for the likes of Rasmus Ristolainen and Cody Franson.
Zuccarello will play in his first game since April 24th after suffering a skull fracture. Zuccarello had 15 goals and 34 assists (49 points) in 78 games and two assists in five playoff games before he suffered the injury. The 28-year-0ld has been a consistent point producer over the last two seasons and should approach 50 points again this season.
Zuccarello was hit in the head by a Ryan McDonagh shot in the Rangers win over the Penguins in Game 5. Zucarrello had two assists i five games in Round 1, but now his status for the second round is in question.
Johansson was listed as questionable for Game 4, after suffering an undisclosed injury in Monday’s practice. Johansson was in the morning skate and said that he will play tonight. Johansson has one goal and six shots on goal in the first three games of the series.
Johansson was nicked up in practice and left the session early. He is questionable for tomorrow, but the belief is that he will take part in warmups and be a game-time decision.
Zuccarello missed the last two games, but will be back in the lineup this afternoon in Washington. Zuccarello’s return is good news for the Rangers who now know they will have him for game 1 of the playoffs.
Zuccarello has missed the last two games, but will take part in pre-game warmups before they decide whether he will be in the lineup this afternoon in Washington. With the playoffs looming, you have to think he will not play unless he is 100%.
Tarasenko has missed the last five games but will be back in the lineup on Saturday. Tarasenko returns just in time for the season finale and will be good to go for the playoffs barring a setback.
Zuccarello has missed the last two games with general soreness and will be a game-time decision in the season finale.
Zuccarello will miss his second straight game with general body soreness. He is listed as day-to-day and is expected to be ready for the playoffs.
Tarasenko will miss his fifth straight game with a lower-body injury. Tarasenko did not skate on Wednesday which clouds his status for Saturday’s game as well.
Zuccarello will sit out of tonight’s game with general body soreness. With Zuccarello out, Jesper Fast will bump up into the top-6 and James Sheppard will draw into the lineup.
Pitlick has been sidelined by an undisclosed injury since December 31st, but he is expected to be back in the lineup tonight vs. the Kings. Pitlick will skate on the third line with Anton Lander and Matt Fraser. Pitlick has one goal in 14 games with the Oilers this season.
