Status report
Nyquist, a forward, is out indefinitely after taking a hit late in the first period that forced him to leave a 3-2 overtime win against the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday. Marchenko moves up from the third line into Nyquist's spot, and Bemstrom returns to the lineup after being scratched against the Oilers. … Blankenburg, a defenseman who played into overtime in Edmonton, is day to day. Bayreuther takes his spot after being scratched the past seven games.
