Chychrun is dealing with a bit of whiplash after a hit late in the third period of Friday's game versus the Flames, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

Chychrun will be checked on Saturday ahead of the Capitals' game in Edmonton. The 27-year-old should be considered day-to-day at this time, and if he can't suit up, Declan Chisholm or Dylan McIlrath will take his place.

Lyubushkin (lower body) won't return to Friday's game versus the Blues, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

Lyubushkin was injured during the second period and didn't come out for the third. The 31-year-old defenseman can be considered day-to-day until more information is available. The Stars' next game is a rematch with the Blues in St. Louis on Tuesday, and Alex Petrovic would draw in if Lyubushkin can't play.

Carlo (undisclosed) is expected to be in the lineup Friday versus the Golden Knights, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

Carlo appears to have avoided an injury after there was some concern he tweaked something as recently as Wednesday. The 29-year-old defenseman should be good for his usual top-four minutes in this contest.

Benning was assigned to AHL Toronto on Friday.

Benning was called up by the Maple Leafs on Dec. 30, but he appeared in just one game during his time with the NHL club. He should have more consistent opportunities to see playing time with the Marlies.

Bryson (upper body) was designated for injured reserve Friday, Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News reports.

Bryson finds himself facing a second long-term stint on the sidelines after he missed nine games earlier in the year while in the concussion protocol. Considering the blueliner has just two points in his last 22 outings and has periodically served as a healthy scratch, few fantasy managers are likely to be impacted by his absence. With the available roster spot, the Sabres called up Zac Jones from the minors.

Jones was recalled from AHL Rochester on Friday, Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News reports.

Jones spent just over a week in the minors, but he'll rejoin Buffalo after Jacob Bryson (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Friday. Jones hasn't yet appeared in a game for the NHL club this year, but he leads Rochester in points, with six goals and 31 assists across 32 games.

Korczak notched an assist, three shots on goal and three hits in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Bruins.

Korczak has racked up six helpers over 16 games since he last scored a goal. He's mostly seen top-four minutes lately, but with Shea Theodore now healthy and Rasmus Andersson set to make his Vegas debut Friday versus Toronto, Korczak could slip into a less prominent role. He's done well to post a career-high 12 points with 47 shots on net, 76 hits, 71 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a plus-8 rating over 49 appearances so far, but the impending drop in ice time makes him too risky for standard fantasy formats.

Megna was reassigned to AHL Henderson on Friday.

Megna has played four games with the Golden Knights this season, going minus-5 with six hits and one blocked shot. He had three goals and four assists in 27 AHL games before his recall. The Golden Knights are expected to add Rasmus Andersson to their defensive corps against the Maple Leafs, as his visa issues have been resolved after his trade from Calgary on Jan. 18.

Andersson (not injury related) will be in the lineup versus Toronto on Friday.

To clear a spot for Andersson on the NHL roster, the Golden Knights sent Jaycob Megna down to the minors in a corresponding move. In 48 games with the Flames this season, the 29-year-old Andersson has generated 10 goals and 20 helpers, including 10 power-play points. With Vegas, Andersson should remain in the mix for power-play ice time and continue producing offensively.

McAvoy scored a power-play goal on four shots, blocked three shots and added two hits in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights.

McAvoy sparked a run of three goals in 54 seconds during the middle of the first period. He's had an excellent January, earning three goals and seven assists over 10 contests this month. For the season, the top-pairing defenseman has 30 points (four goals, 26 helpers), 58 shots on net, 50 hits, 76 blocked shots, 36 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 39 outings. That'd be a 60-point pace over a full season, but time lost due to injury will likely limit McAvoy to the 45-50 point range this season if he can stay healthy the rest of the way.
