NHL Injuries for 2018/2019 include Flames, Avs, Stars, Oilers, Predators, Sens, Pens Blues Canuck Knights & Caps

Derek Wills of Calgary Flames forward Anthony Mantha sustained an upper-body injury on Tuesday evening and did not practice yesterday, according to Evan Rawal of Colorado Avalanche defenseman Cale Makar who reported feeling “OK”, traveling to Winnipeg but uncertain as yet whether or not he will play in game tomorrow night.
Forward Jonathan Drouin will not play against the Jets.
Ryan Boulding: Colorado coach Jared Bednar provided this insight about Gabriel Landeskog:
I don’t think you can call it that, that was what I said on [Rehabilitation. I believe there have been ups and downs throughout his rehab – particularly now when he feels better and closer to play; when there are push-pull reactions between activities. Sometimes something works great while something else may cause him discomfort… So right now he continues his workouts at the gym every day before returning back onto the ice as soon as he can.

Derek Van Diest: Edmonton Oilers forward Connor McDavid was back on the roster last night after initially expecting to miss two to three weeks due to injury. Instead he made it back just over one week later than initially estimated.
McDavid described it simply, as feeling great: he did not work on media releases himself but nevertheless managed to benefit greatly from them. While things did not start well initially, things quickly improved rapidly – something which made McDavid even happier about life overall. “I can only speak for myself; it feels truly awesome,” McDavid exclaimed.
