Hedman (lower body) said Tuesday that he will be ready for Wednesday's home game versus the Maple Leafs and expects to be in the lineup, according to Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com.

Hedman sustained his lower-body injury during warmups of last Wednesday's quarterfinals matchup for Sweden against the United States and did not play as a result. The left-shot blueliner has already missed 34 games for the Lightning this season due to an elbow injury. The 35-year-old should be good for his role in all situations against Toronto, though his ice time might be relatively low in the first half of a back-to-back -- Tampa Bay will also face Carolina on Thursday.

Moore was summoned from AHL San Diego on Tuesday.

Moore spent the Olympic break in the minors, playing in three games. He hasn't earned a point in four AHL appearances this season. Moore has spent the majority of the 2025-26 campaign in the NHL, collecting two goals, seven assists, 39 shots on net, 63 blocked shots and 17 hits in 41 contests for the Ducks.

Simashev was recalled from AHL Tucson on Tuesday.

Simashev has split time between the NHL and AHL this season. He has one assist in 24 appearances with the big club in 2025-26 while notching seven goals and 25 points in 27 minor-league outings.

Lamoureux was promoted from AHL Tucson on Tuesday.

Lamoureux was called up alongside fellow blueliner Dmitri Simashev, which would seem to indicate there are some defenseman in doubt ahead of Wednesday's clash with the Avalanche. For his part, the 22-year-old Lamoureux has logged just five NHL games this year, tallying one assist, 11 hits and four shots along the way.

Kiersted was elevated from AHL Iowa on Tuesday.

Kiersted has appeared in just four NHL games this season, in which he notched one assist, four shots and five blocks while averaging 13:42 of ice time. The decision to bring Kierster up from the minors could be an indication that Quinn Hughes won't be back in time from the Olympics to face Colorado on Thursday.

Clague was recalled from AHL Manitoba on Tuesday.

The decision to bring Clague up from the minors could be an indication that Neal Pionk (lower body) won't be ready to return to action versus the Canucks on Wednesday. Even with injuries piling up on the blue line, the 27-year-old Clague figures to serve as a healthy scratch with Ville Heinola taking the open spot in the lineup.

Morrissey (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, per the NHL media site.

Morrissey's placement on IR confirms that the blueliner will miss a period of time, which coincides with earlier reports Monday. The 30-year-old defenseman missed each of Canada's last five games at the 2026 Winter Olympics after leaving their first contest following a collision with Czechia's Ondrej Palat. Morrissey has compiled 10 goals, 42 points, 104 shots on net and 94 blocked shots across 56 games for Winnipeg this season. The Jets' task of rejoining the wild-card race in the Western Conference will be difficult without their lead defenseman, who will miss at least three games. His earliest chance to return is March 3 versus Chicago.

Morrissey (upper body) will likely be sidelined when the Jets resume play this week, TSN.ca reports Monday.

Morrissey missed five games at the Olympics after sustaining an upper-body injury during Canada's tournament opener, and the issue is expected to force him to miss some time in the NHL. The blueliner still needs to be evaluated by the Jets' medical staff once he returns from Italy, but head coach Scott Arniel said Monday that Morrissey has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Canucks but could join the team at some point during the three-game road trip immediately following the Olympic break.

Connauton was reassigned to AHL Tucson on Monday.

Connauton hasn't played in an NHL game since 2021-22, when he played in 39 regular-season games for the Panthers and Flyers. The veteran blueliner was on the Mammoth roster during the Olympic break but will now rejoin the Roadrunners. Given his lack of NHL opportunities, Connauton figures to be a non-factor in fantasy contests.

Szuber was assigned to AHL Tucson on Monday.

Szuber practiced with Utah on Sunday after being summoned from the minors. He has notched 10 goals and 24 points in 44 AHL outings this season.
