Kapanen has picked up 12 goals and 10 assists (22 points) in 27 games with the Marlies this season. Kapanen had two goals in six games with Toronto earlier this season.

Walman, 21, was a third-round pick (No.82 overall) in 2014 and has 13 points (2G / 11A) in 34 games with the Wolves this season. Walman will likely serve as an extra defenseman during the Blues’ short trip with Vince Dunn (illness) on IR.

Pickard allowed four goals on 28 shots in the Maple Leafs loss in Colorado last Friday. He got the nod because Curtis McElhinney was hurt but with McElhinney back at practice today, Pickard returns to the Marlies where he is enjoying a strong year.

With Micheal Frolik (broken jaw) going on IR, Mangiapane has been recalled after recording 14 goals and 19 assists (33 points) in 29 games with Stockton.

Pickard has gone 10-5-0 with a 2.20 GAA and .919 SV% in 15 games with the Marlies this season. With Curtis McElhinney hurt, it looks like Pickard will start against his former team tonight in Colorado. Pickard has gone 28-44-6 with a 2.77 GAA and .914 SV% in 86 career NHL games (all with Colorado).

Pickard has gone 10-5-0 with a 2.20 GAA and .919 SV% in 15 games with the Marlies this season. With Curtis McElhinney out with a lower-body injury, Pickard has been recalled and should start against his former team on Friday.

After being acquired from the Devils on Thursday, Henrique will draw right into the Ducks lineup tonight. The Ducks did not do line rushes at their morning skate so there is no word who he will play with in his debut. Head coach Randy Carlyle did add that Henrique will see some power play time but wasn’t sure if he’ll use him on the penalty kill right away.

The Ducks are extremely thin at centre with Ryan Getzlaf and Ryan Kesler both sidelined with injuries, so adding Henrique will help them down the middle immediately. Henrique is two years removed from 30 goals and 20 assists (50 points) and has registered four goals and 10 assists (14 points) in 24 games this season. He was averaging 18:15 TOI/GM with the Devils and could see even more playing time in Anaheim while Getzlaf and Kesler are out. He is an interesting waiver add as he should see top line minutes alongside Corey Perry and should see plenty of PP time as well.

Kulak was a healthy scratch on Saturday but he will replace Matt Bartkowski in the lineup tonight vs. Toronto. Kulak has just three assists in 14 games this season.
