Nazar (upper body) is expected to play in Thursday's game against the Hurricanes, per Scott Powers of The Athletic.

After taking a puck to the face in a clash with the Senators on Dec. 20, Nazar is poised to return following a 15-game absence. The 22-year-old could provide an offensive boost after posting 21 points in his first 33 games this season. Nazar will likely return to the second line to play alongside Ryan Donato and Tyler Bertuzzi.
