Status report
Saros is expected to start for the 12th time in 13 games after being pulled following the first period of a 9-2 loss to the Dallas Stars on Thursday. ... Kapanen had a maintenance day Friday, but coach Drew Bannister said it wasn't anything that should keep him from playing. ... Perunovich, a defenseman, practiced Friday for the second straight day but is expected to miss his sixth straight game. ... Blais is expected to enter the lineup for Alexandrov, a forward.
