Petry, who did not practice Monday because of an illness, took part in the Red Wings morning skate Tuesday and is expected to play. … Walman will miss his fourth straight game; the defenseman skated Monday for the first time since he was injured in a 6-3 loss at the Pittsburgh Penguins on March 17. ... Lyon will make his second straight start after Reimer started the previous two games. ... Milano took part in the Capitals morning skate Tuesday after leaving in the first period of a 3-0 win against the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday but remained on the ice with the scratches afterward; coach Spencer Carbery did not rule him out. ... Lindgren will start for the sixth time in seven games. ... Wilson, a forward, will serve the third of his six-game suspension for high-sticking Toronto Maple Leafs forward Noah Gregor during a 7-3 loss Wednesday.
