Keep updated on all the injury news and roster updates from around the NHL with daily Ice Chips.

Toronto Maple Leafs

Forward Zach Hyman is on the ice in a regular sweater at the Leafs' morning skate in Montreal, reports TSN's Mark Masters. He is good to go for Saturday night while forward Nic Petan will come out of the lineup.

Hyman did not play Thursday night as the Leafs defeated the Ottawa Senators. Head coach Sheldon Keefe described the forward as "banged up" prior to puck drop.

Hyman said Saturday that it was a blocked shot that caught him in the foot but he is feeling better and ready to get back at it for the Leafs.

Zach Bogosian will draw back in Saturday with Mikko Lehtonen taking a seat, while Frederik Andersen returns to the crease after Michael Hutchinson handled things Thursday night.

 

Montreal Canadiens

Carey Price will get the start between the pipes Saturday night against the Leafs according to TSN's John Lu.

Meanwhile, Paul Byron will draw in for Corey Perry. Lu notes there could be a possible lineup change again Sunday with a back-to-back against the Ottawa Senators.

Ottawa Senators

Both goaltender Marcus Hogberg and defenceman Thomas Chabot did not practice with the Ottawa Senators Saturday due to injuries.

Head coach D.J. Smith told reporters Hogberg will be out at least a week and is being given a week-to-week designation after leaving Thursday's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs in the first period with an undisclosed lower-body injury.

Meanwhile, Chabot will be a game-time decision for Sunday's matchup with the Montreal Canadiens, Smith said. He missed Thursday's game because of an upper-body injury.

The Sens called up goalie Joey Daccord from the AHL and placed him on the taxi squad Saturday.

Daccord stopped 34 of 39 shots in Belleville’s 5-2 loss to Laval Friday night. Other taxi squad goalie Kevin Mandolese watched practice from the bench, reports TSN's Kelce Brade.

St. Louis Blues

Injured forward Vladimir Tarasenko skated with the Blues during practice on Friday for the second day in a row.

However, according to Tom Timmermann of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Tarasenko's is still at least a couple weeks away from returning to the lineup as he continues to recover from shoulder surgery.

“We want to integrate him more with our team and practicing,” head coach Craig Berube told the Post-Dispatch. “Hopefully, he keeps pushing and he can do more and more. So it was good to see him out there today. I think he brings energy to our team right now, guys seeing him out there. He’s in a good mood. I think it’s good for our team.”

The 29-year-old play 10 games last season, recording three goals and seven assists.

 

Columbus Blue Jackets

The Blue Jackets announced approval from the Ohio Department of Health to host 10 per cent capacity of fans at Nationwide Arena starting on March 2.

The Blue Jackets will take on the Detroit Red Wings in their first game in front of home fans this season.
