  • Tom Gulitti: The Devils put Patrik Elias on the IR and activate Peter Harrold.
  • Jim Matheson: Oilers Justin Schultz (groin) didn’t practice yesterday and Matheson is wondering if he’ll play during their four-game road trip.
  • Shelly Anderson: Penguins coach Dan Bylsma on Pascal Dupuis: “It’s maintenance at this point in time. We’ll see how he continues to do tomorrow and toward the weekend for Saturday’s game. At this point it’s not more than that.”
  • Adrian Dater: Avalanche’s Ryan Wilson won’t play tonight due to a back issue.
  • Arthur Staple: Islanders Cal Clutterbuck has an upper-body injury.
  • John Vogl: Sabres Christian Ehrhoff was describing his injury and it sounded like a muscle strain.
