Status report
Neither team held a morning skate Saturday. ... Bonino, a forward, was placed in NHL COVID-19 protocol Saturday, along with assistant coach John MacLean. ... Atkinson will play after missing practice Friday for a maintenance day. ... Brassard is doubtful after re-aggravating his hip injury during a 6-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday. That injury had kept the center out 15 of the previous 16 games. ... Mayhew will play after being out Thursday because of an upper-body injury. ... Seeler and Cates exited NHL COVID-19 protocol. Forward Connor Bunnaman and defenseman Egor Zamula were sent to the taxi squad.
