Jaromir Jagr needs one point to pass Mark Messier for sole possession of second place on the NHL's all-time point list. Jagr tied Messier on Tuesday when his three assists gave him 1,887 points. "If it happens, it happens," Jagr said. "If it doesn't, it doesn't. Hopefully I can have an opportunity the next game. Just win the hockey game. Hopefully sooner or later, it's going to happen." Goalie Roberto Luongo skated on his own before the morning skate and Mike McKenna was recalled from Springfield of the American Hockey League on an emergency basis to serve as the backup for James Reimer. Coach Tom Rowe said Luongo would be in net Friday against the Detroit Red Wings. "It's more maintenance," Rowe said. "A couple of bumps and bruises here, but nothing that serious. I just wanted to give [Luongo] a little rest mentally more than anything. He's been bumped in a little bit lately; we've got to start doing a better job of protecting him, that's for sure." Forward Jonathan Marchessault is expected to play after missing seven of the past eight games because of a lower-body injury. Marchessault did not play in a 4-3 shootout victory against the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday after being a game-time decision.
