O'Reilly has a broken finger and is out indefinitely; he will be placed on LTIR.

O'Reilly left the Maple Leafs' previous game after just 11:11 TOI due to a broken finger and is considered out indefinitely after being placed on the long-term injured-reserve Monday. It is a massive loss for the Maple Leafs as the 32-year-old was one of their big Trade Deadline acquisitions and had 15 goals and 24 points through 48 games this season.

Annunen will start Wednesday vs. the Devils.

Annunen was fantastic in his only start of the season, stopping 19 of 20 shots (.950 SV%) in a win over St. Louis his last time out for the Avalanche. The 22-year-old is making his third career start across two seasons, and has a perfect 2-0-0 record, .887 SV% and 1.01 GAA. He will take on the New Jersey Devils, who have won four of their last five games after a 7-0 win over Philadelphia last game.

Juuse Saros will start Tuesday vs. Pittsburgh.

Saros stopped 25 of 27 shots (.926 SV%) for his third-straight victory as he beat Arizona 6-2 in his previous start. The 27-year-old has been solid all year, with his 23-16-5 record, 2.80 GAA and .916 SV%. He will face the Pittsburgh Penguins, who have won their last two games and are fifth in the NHL in shots (33.7).

The Blackhawks have acquired Andreas Englund from the Avalanche for Jack Johnson.

With all of the injuries in Colorado this season, Englund settled in as their No.6 defenseman, posting three assists in 36 games. Despite putting together a solid campaign the Avalanche elected to bring back Johnson, who won a Stanley Cup with them last season. Englund should have a chance to earn more playing time in Colorado.
