Z. Werenski - D

CBJ

Werenski (shoulder) will meet with his doctors Thursday to determine when he can return to the lineup, Brian Hedger of NHL.com reports.

Werenski also voiced his desire to suit up in a preseason contest in order to get himself ready for the upcoming campaign. Until he gets the all-clear, the blueliner will continue practicing in a limited capacity.

Added 2:15 pm (EST)

N/A

N. Deslauriers - F

MTL

Deslauriers will miss an indefinite period of time due to a facial fracture that required surgery, TSN reports.

The bottom-six winger is feeling the effects of a fight with Devils forward Brandon Baddock from Monday's preseason game. Deslauriers wasn't going to draw heavy ownership in fantasy games after recording 10 goals and four assists over 58 games with the Canadiens last year, but this is a tough break for the Habs in general. Deslauriers registered 238 hits in 2017-18 and tends to keep opposing skaters honest with his physical play.

Added 2:12 pm (EST)

N/A

D. Brassard - F

PIT

Brassard (illness) could rejoin the team for practice in the coming days, Sam Kasan of Pens Inside Scoop reports.

Considering Brassard has yet to take part in any training camp sessions, he likely won't appear in either of the Pens' next two preseason contests, which pushes back his potential debut to Saturday versus the Blue Jackets at the earliest. By moving to the wing, the natural center could find himself lining up alongside Evgeni Malkin and Phil Kessel -- a plum assignment few players would turn down.

Added 2:08 pm (EST)

N/A

D. Perron - F

VGK

Perron -- who is dealing with an undisclosed injury -- won't be in the lineup Tuesday against Dallas, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Perron may give it a go Wednesday versus Minnesota, although no firm determination has been made yet. Even if the winger is ruled out for a few games during the preseason, there is no indication he won't be ready for Opening Night on Oct. 4

Added 2:04 pm (EST)

N/A

C. Hutton - G

STL

Hutton is slated to get the start versus the Penguins on Tuesday.

Hutton is heading into the season as the presumptive No. 1 after signing with the Sabres during the offseason -- although Linus Ullmark could challenge for more minutes throughout the year.

Added 2:00 pm (EST)

N/A

M. Granlund - F

VAN

Granlund (ankle) will suit up versus the Oilers on Tuesday.

Granlund saw a significant drop in production last season, as he managed a mere eight goals and four assists -- well of the 32 points he put up in 2016-17. With the Sedin twins gone, the natural center should take on a bigger role this year.

Added 1:48 pm (EST)

N/A

T. Schaller - F

BOS

Schaller (hand) will be in action against the Oilers on Tuesday.

Schaller appeared in all 82 games for Boston last season, despite playing with a hand injury that required offseason surgery. The depth center won't find ice time as easy to come by in Vancouver, especially with highly-touted prospects Elias Pettersson and Adam Gaudette competing for spots in the game-day lineup.

Added 1:46 pm (EST)

N/A

C. Fowler - D

ANA

Fowler (shoulder) is in the lineup for Tuesday's preseason road contest against the Sharks, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.

Fowler sustained a Grade 3 separation of his AC joint ahead of the 2018 postseason, but the mobile defenseman is now ready to rock. Utilized on both the power play and penalty kill, the top-pairing skater registered eight goals and 32 points over 67 games in the 2017-18 season.

Added 1:46 pm (EST)

N/A

R. Bortuzzo - D

STL

Bortuzzo (lower body) underwent an MRI that came back clean, but he will miss at least the first two preseason contests, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

The Thunder Bay, Ontario product is believed to be dealing with lower-body soreness. Bortuzzo recording 13 points in 72 games last season qualified as a career high, which didn't lend much to fantasy games, though he did have 121 hits and 108 blocked shots to make life easier for the Blues goalies. Expect more of the same this year.

Added 1:28 pm (EST)

N/A

D. Caggiula - F

EDM

Caggiula (illness) is in the projected lineup for Tuesday's preseason matchup with Vancouver.

Caggiula didn't participate in practice Friday due to an illness, but he was never expected to be sidelined long term. The 24-year-old winger, who notched 13 goals and 20 points in 67 games last campaign, is expected to skate in a bottom-six role at even strength this campaign.

Added 1:27 pm (EST)

N/A

A. Nilsson - G

VAN

Nilsson is expected to get the starting nod for Tuesday's matchup with Edmonton, Joey Kenward of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Vancouver is playing three preseason games in as many days this week, so expect the team to shuffle around the netminders -- with Nilsson getting the first one. The Swede saw action in 27 games last year and will likely feature in a similar amount this season behind Jacob Markstrom.

Added 1:24 pm (EST)

N/A

J. Allen - G

STL

Allen's back is improving, but he will miss at least the first two preseason games with Sunday against the Blue Jackets being his earliest conceivable return date, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Back spasms are taking valuable training-camp time away from Allen, but he's essentially downplayed the significance of the issue by stating that he's ahead of schedule.
