Dickinson was hurt midway through Saturday's game in Nashville and will be a game-time decision for Monday's game in Florida. Dickinson could be bumped to the bottom-6 if Tyler Seguin (hip) is able to make his season debut on Monday.
Weber was a surprise scratch on Friday and is expected to miss his second straight game on Saturday. Erik Gustafsson replaced him last night but it looks like Brett Kulak will replace him on Saturday.
The Maple Leafs will rest a couple of players on Thursday, Nick Foligno being one of them. Pierre Engvall will re-enter the lineup to replace Foligno.
Mikheyev has missed the last two games but will be a game-time decision for the second straight contest. Mikheyev will skate on a line with Alexander Kerfoot and Wayne Simmonds if he does play.
Mikheyev was scratched Tuesday in Vancouver but could return to the lineup on Thursday. Mikheyev skated on the third line in the morning skate and comes in with one goal and three assists in his last six games.
Foligno was acquired from the Blue Jackets at the trade deadline and will suit up Thursday in Winnipeg. Foligno is not the same offensive presence he was in 2015 but could pack a bit of a punch on Thursday, as he debuts on the top line with Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner.
Bertuzzi has not played since January 30th, so this isn't overly surprising with Detroit all but eliminated from the playoffs. Bertuzzi finishes the season with just seven points (5G / 2A) in nine games.
Mikheyev will come out of the lineup Tuesday in Vancouver because of an undisclosed injury. With both Mikheyev and Zach Hyman out with injuries, look for Adam Brooks and Pierre Engvall to draw into the lineup.
Foligno, who was the Blue Jackets' captain, is known for being a great leader who plays a very reliable two-way game. At age-33, Foligno doesn't offer much in the way of offence anymore but will stabilize the Maple Leafs' middle-6 and can move up the lineup in a pinch. He has seven goals and nine assists (16 points) in 42 games this season. The Blue Jackets are retaining 50 percent of his contract and the Sharks are retaining 25 percent in exchange for a 2021 fourth-round pick.
The Blue Jackets continue to get hit hard by injuries and on Saturday they'll be without their captain. Foligno's name has been swirling on the trade market, so perhaps this is more "asset management" than "upper-body injury."
