Welcome to the NHL Status Report. Here is the latest lineup\/injury news around the NHL.<\/p>\n
New Jersey Devils<\/p>\n
Jacob Markstrom<\/a> (lower body) could return for the Devils during their four-game road trip that begins at the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday. The goalie took part in practice Saturday after missing his fifth straight game Friday, a 3-1 win against the San Jose Sharks. “He’ll be on the trip,” coach Sheldon Keefe said Saturday. “We see him playing on the trip. When exactly that is, we’ll have to see how he got through today and what that looks like.” New Jersey has won seven in a row and hosts Colorado on Sunday. … Forward Cody Glass<\/a>, who has missed the past two games with a lower-body injury, is going to miss extended time.<\/p>\n Pittsburgh Penguins<\/p>\n Rickard Rakell<\/a> will had surgery on his left hand Sunday and will miss 6-8 weeks, the Penguins announced Sunday. Rakell, a forward, has eight points (three goals, five assists) in nine games this season. Pittsburgh recalled forward Ville Koivunen<\/a> from Wilkes-Barre\/Scranton of the American Hockey League after he had 11 points (four goals, seven assists) in six AHL games. … Caleb Jones<\/a> is expected to miss eight weeks with a lower-body injury. The defenseman, who was placed on injured reserve, left a 5-3 win against the Florida Panthers on Thursday with 6:48 remaining in the third period after his feet went into the boards while battling forward Brad Marchand<\/a> for the puck.<\/p>\n Winnipeg Jets<\/p>\n Adam Lowry<\/a> skated in a regular jersey Saturday for the first time since the Jets forward had offseason hip surgery. Lowry, who is Winnipeg’s captain, could make his season debut later this month or in early November. “He needs live contact,” coach Scott Arniel said. “He needs to get into those situations. … We’re trying to make it more game-like for him.”<\/p>\n Dallas Stars<\/p>\n Roope Hintz<\/a> (undisclosed) will not play against the Nashville Predators on Sunday (7 p.m. ET; FDSNSO, Victory+). The Stars’ No. 1 center was injured midway through the third period of a 3-2 win against the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday following a hit by Taylor Hall<\/a> in the corner against the boards. With Hintz unavailable, Oskar Back<\/a> was activated off injured reserve.<\/p>\n Ottawa Senators<\/p>\n Brady Tkachuk<\/a> was on the ice with the Senators on Saturday for the first time since having surgery on his right thumb Oct. 16. The forward and Ottawa captain is expected to be out 6-8 weeks after he was injured during a 4-1 loss to the Nashville Predators on Oct. 13 when he was cross-checked by Roman Josi<\/a> in the first period. He didn’t participate in any drills and wore a noncontact jersey before and after the main skate only using only his left hand on the stick. “It just goes to show how much he loves being around the team and around the guys,” Senators forward Drake Batherson<\/a> said. “With an injury like that, usually guys just kind of hang out at home, but it shows he wants to be around the guys and still lead even though he’s not playing and that’s what he’s doing.”<\/p>\n Nashville Predators<\/p>\n Roman Josi<\/a> is week to week because of an upper-body injury, the Predators announced Saturday. The defenseman and Nashville captain played 18:09 in a 2-1 win against the Vancouver Canucks on Thursday, and has five points (one goal, four assists) in eight games this season. The injury is not related to Postural Tachycardia Syndrome, which Josi was diagnosed with late last season. … Defenseman Nicolas Hague<\/a> played 21:11 and had an assist in his season debut Saturday, a 5-4 shootout win against the Los Angeles Kings. Hague hadn\u2019t played because of an upper-body injury sustained during a preseason game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Welcome to the NHL Status Report.
