Status report

Fowler could return on the top defense pair after missing a 2-1 overtime loss at the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday, attending to the birth of his second child. ... Kessel could be a healthy scratch; the defenseman played 12:39 Saturday, his first NHL game since Jan. 31 and second since Dec. 12. ... Jarry will make his third straight start. ... Heinen could elevate to second-line left wing, bumping Dewar to the fourth line.
