Status report
Hill will return and start after missing seven games with a lower-body injury. ... McDavid will be a game-time decision; the center missed practice the past two days after he was injured during a 4-2 win at the Calgary Flames on Saturday. ... If McDavid does not play, Nugent-Hopkins would move to the top line, centered by Draisaitl, and Henrique would move from left wing to center the second line. … Holloway was recalled from Bakersfield of the American Hockey League on Tuesday. ... Skinner will alternate starts with Pickard for the seventh straight game.
