Toews missed the last 11 games with a concussion that he suffered in Detroit on January 26th. Toews, who has scored four goals and 15 assists (19 points) in 43 games this season, will centre the second line with Alex DeBrincat and Tyler Johnson, who also returns to the lineup on Thursday.



The Sharks announced on Sunday that Ferraro had surgery to repair a left fibula fracture and is expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks. In a corresponding move, the Sharks recalled Santeri Hatakka from San Jose (AHL).





Namestnikov missed the last two games with an undisclosed injury and wasn't on the ice for the morning skate but is expected to play Wednesday vs. Colorado. Look for Namestnikov, who has 13 goals and 10 assists (23 points) in 49 games, to skate on the third line with Michael Rasmussen and Adam Erne.



Perfetti is expected to miss some time with an upper-body injury, so he was moved to IR to open up a roster spot for Adam Brooks, who was claimed off of waivers from Toronto.

With Mikko Koskinen returning from the COVID-19 protocol list, Skinner goes back to the AHL. Skinner is coming off of his first career shutout and has gone 6-6-0 with a 2.62 GAA and .913 SV% with the Oilers this season.
