Matt Puempel has been placed on the IR due to a concussion from the cross check to the face from Islanders' Brock Nelson.
Jimmy Vesey is being listed as day to day with an upper body injury. Alain Vigneault said that Vesey will make the trip but would not confirm if he would play. On Vesey, "Jimmy hurt himself, upper body related. Would say that he is day to day at this point. He will make the trip.....and I would say that he is going to make the trip (smile)."
Vigneault on Status of injured Rookie Pavel Buchnevich,"he is continuing the process of the rehab. Right now they feel that he probably needs some more time improving his strength level until they really start gearing him up on the ice. They are working on off-ice stuff, they feel he needs more time so there is no definite timetable. The strength needs to improve before they can really push him on the ice."
Both Rick Nash and Jimmy Vesey did not participate in today's practice but Nick jensen was on the ice taking part.
