Status report

Milano, who was a healthy scratch for a 5-1 loss at the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday, will replace Trineyev at forward. … Foligno will return after missing nine games because of a lower-body injury, and Lindgren (upper body) will start after missing three. … Johansson was injured during a 6-2 win against the Boston Bruins on Sunday and the forward is day to day. … Bogosian also is day to day and the defenseman will not play.
