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

 


Calgary Flames 

RW Jaromir Jagr took part in Flames practice on Wednesday. The 45-year-old has been out since Dec. 4 with a lower-body injury. 


Toronto Maple Leafs

Auston Matthews did not take part in the Leafs' outdoor practice at St. Paul, Minn., and won't play in Thursday's game against the Wild.

 

 


Montreal Canadiens 

Shea Weber is back on the ice for Wednesday's practice after skipping practice on Tuesday for maintenance. He returned from a lower-body injury on Dec. 2 and hasn’t taken part in a practice since then. The Habs also cancelled three morning skates since Dec. 2, so Weber was only on the ice for games those days.

 

Nashville Predators

Head coach Peter Laviolette has said that forward Kyle Turris, who took a puck to the face at Monday's practice, is feeling good, which perhaps could mean that Turris will be available for the team's game Wednesday night against the Vancouver Canucks.

 


New Jersey Devils

The team announced Wednesday that winger Taylor Hall (right kee contusion) will not make the road trip to Montreal for Thursday's tilt against the Habs. “Good news is that there is no damage,” said head coach Jon Hynes. Forward Kyle Palmieri will make the trip, but is not yet game-ready and will not play at the Bell Centre. Cory Schneider will start in goal.


Columbus Blue Jackets 

Blue Jackets forward Brandon Dubinsky has been placed on injured reserve, the team announced. He's expected to miss six to eight weeks due to an orbital bone fracture suffered in Tuesday's 7-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers.
