NHL Injuries: Flames, Avs, Stars, Oilers, Predators, Sens, Pens, Blues, Canucks, Knights, and Caps

Derek Wills: Calgary Flames forward Anthony Mantha suffered a high-profile injury on Tuesday night and did not practice yesterday.

Evan Rawal: Colorado Avalanche defenseman Cale Makar said 'OK' and is going to Winnipeg. He is not sure if he will play.

Forward Jonathan Drouin will not be on the roster against the Jets.

Ryan Boulding: Avs coach Jared Bednar to Gabriel Landeskog.

“I don't know if you can drive. That's what I said. I think there are ups and downs during his rehabilitation, especially now, when he's feeling better and getting closer to playing. He pushes himself in different directions, and sometimes he reacts well and moves on to the next thing, and then the next thing might not be good for him. … So right now, he's continuing his work and in the gym every day, and he'll be back on the ice soon.”

Derek Van Diest: Edmonton Oilers forward Connor McDavid returned to the lineup last night. He was initially expected to miss two or three weeks but returned just a week later.

“I can just tell you how it feels, it feels really good,” McDavid said. “I am not part of the media team that makes news from the media. I was very lucky. It wasn't so good at first, things have turned around, very quickly and it feels good. “

Gerry Modejonge: Oilers defenseman Troy Stecher left the game in the third period after blocking a shot. There is no update after the game.

Harvey Valentine: Nashville Predators forward Tommy Novak missed last night's game with an upper body injury.

It is not known if Rust will be able to play with the Hurricanes or the Capitals, but coach Mike Sullivan suspects that he will.

Striker Kevin Hayes did not practice yesterday (maintenance – upper-body injury). He left Tuesday's game late in the third.

Lou Korac: Striker of St. Louis Blues Dylan Holloway on what the doctors told him: “They told me to do no work for 24 hours and I was ready to go.” I hope to play tomorrow but we will see.”

Matthew DeFranks: Holloway said he felt familiar. The puck hit his Vagus Nerve and he felt lightheaded and didn't really remember anything by the time he got to the bench.
