Marner (undisclosed) missed practice on Monday and is uncertain if he will be ready for Tuesday's game in Calgary.

Marner played only 18:47 time-on-ice in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Edmonton Oilers, well below his 21:28 average time-on-ice through 52 games this season. He was not at practice on Monday and his status is up in the air for Tuesday's game against the Calgary Flames. The 27-year-old Marner has 19 points (3G / 16A) in his last 13 games.
