S. Stamkos - RW

Steven Stamkos has been named the third star of the week for the period ending Jan. 17.

Stamkos racked up two goals and three assists in two games against Chicago to begin the 2020-21 season. He found the back of the net in each contest and appears to be in fine form following his injury issues in the postseason.

N/A

O. Ekman-Larsson - D

ARI

Oliver Ekman-Larsson (lower body) is listed as week-to-week.

Ekman-Larsson was initially considered to be day-to-day before he was put on injured reserve by the Coyotes on Sunday. He logs big minutes for the Coyotes and it will be committee effort to fill in while he's out. "We always talk about the old cliche next man up. We're going to need 5-6 guys on defense to help us out," said coach Rick Tocchet. "Every player wants a chance. Everybody talks about ice time. Well, here it is, so let's see what you've got. Let's make the most of opportunity when things like this happen."

B. Harpur - D

NSH

Nashville has put Ben Harpur on the team's taxi squad.

Harpur had been assigned to Chicago of the AHL. Harpur has seven points and 79 penalty minutes in 103 career NHL games, but he hasn't played in the big league since 2018-19 when he was a member of the Ottawa Senators organization.

T. Demko - G

VAN

Thatcher Demko was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, making him the likely starter for Vancouver on Monday night against Calgary.

It was a bit of an odd situation at the Canucks' morning skate because Braden Holtby was occupying the starter's net, but he stayed out late and Demko came off earlier. If Demko does get the nod then he will face some former Vancouver teammates and match up against Jacob Markstrom at the other end of the ice. Demko was in goal for a 5-2 loss to Edmonton last Thursday when he stopped 41 shots.

B. Comeau - F

DAL

Blake Comeau is listed as day-to-day, according to coach Rick Bowness.

Comeau didn't take part in Monday's scrimmage and he hasn't resumed skating yet. It's unclear if he is dealing with an injury or is a potential COVID protocol player. Dallas is set to begin their season on Friday against Nashville.

J. Johansson - G

BUF

Jonas Johansson has been summoned from Buffalo's taxi squad.

Johansson will be in the lineup on Monday night against Philadelphia because Linus Ullmark, who was on track to start, won't be available due to personal reasons.

L. Ullmark - G

BUF

Linus Ullmark won't be available for Monday's game against Philadelphia because of personal reasons.

Buffalo has recalled goaltender Jonas Johansson from the taxi squad to replace him. Ullmark was in line to start Monday's match versus the Flyers based on the morning skate when he was the first goalie off the ice. It wouldn't be a surprise to see Carter Hutton in goal now for the Sabres.
