Status report
Stars coach Rick Bowness said Heiskanen rode an exercise bike during the weeknd and the defenseman will skate on his own Monday with the hope he'll be ready to play by March 26 at home against the Vancouver Canucks. ... Holtby, a goalie, remains day to day. ... Klingberg missed a portion of the third period of a 4-2 loss at the New York Islanders on Saturday because of an upper-body injury, but finished the game. Bowness did not have an update. ... The Capitals did not practice Saturday. … Eller was removed from NHL COVID-19 protocol Sunday and will play. ... Oshie, a forward, remains day to day after leaving in the third period of a 7-2 win at the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday.
