NHL Injury Report: Sabres, Avalanche, Red Wings, Oilers, Panthers, Canadiens, Islanders, Maple Leafs
Buffalo Sabres goaltender Alex Lyon is sidelined with a lower-body injury.
Colorado Avalanche forward Nazem Kadri's availability for the next game will depend on his pain tolerance, according to coach Jared Bednar. Kadri is dealing with a finger injury that could keep him out for a few games, but his playoff participation is not believed to be at risk.
Detroit Red Wings forward Michael Rasmussen will miss several games after blocking a shot in a similar area to his previous injury. Forward Dylan Larkin had a maintenance day, while Mason Appleton remains out. Rasmussen's lower-body injury may end his season.
Edmonton Oilers goaltender Connor Ingram was removed from the game as a precaution after experiencing discomfort. Forward Jason Dickinson left the game in the third period with a left leg injury after blocking a shot.
Florida Panthers defenseman Dmitry Kulikov has a broken finger and is out for the season. In recent weeks, forwards Evan Rodrigues and defenseman Aaron Ekblad have also suffered broken fingers.
Montreal Canadiens defenseman Kaiden Guhle had a maintenance day and missed Tuesday's game.
New York Islanders forward Kyle Palmieri might return during the playoffs if the team makes a deep run. Defenseman Tony DeAngelo is a game-time decision but is expected to play.
Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson has returned to the lineup. Goaltender Anthony Stolarz left last night's game with a left leg injury and could not bear weight on it.
Forward Dakota Joshua left the game in the second period with an upper-body injury after an awkward collision with the boards.
Defenseman Brandon Carlo departed last night's game in the second period with a lower-body injury.
