Nash was reassigned to AHL Hartford on Sunday.

Nash was a healthy scratch for the last two games and has not seen any NHL action this season. He has nine goals and 19 points in 20 AHL appearances.

Amadio (personal) is in Sunday's lineup against the Sharks, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

Amadio missed Saturday's game but will be right back in the lineup Sunday. The 27-year-old has five goals and 15 points in 27 games this season, including nine over his last 13 appearances. He'll skate in a middle-six role Sunday.

McMann was demoted to AHL Toronto on Sunday, per CapFriendly.

McMann hasn't seen any NHL action since Nov. 30. He'll likely continue shuffling between the AHL and NHL levels regularly.

Namestnikov (lower body) will be in Sunday's lineup against Anaheim, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.

Namestnikov will return after missing the last three games. The 31-year-old has seven points over his last nine appearances, giving him 11 points in 22 contests. He's set to skate in a second-line role.

McTavish (upper body) will not dress Sunday against the Jets.

McTavish will miss his third straight game and there's been little update recently on his condition. The 20-year-old has 10 goals and 21 points in 24 games this season but had been held scoreless in his last four appearances. Anaheim's next game is Wednesday against the Islanders.

Goodrow (upper body) will suit up Sunday against the Kings, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

Goodrow was a game-time call but he'll slide back into the lineup after missing one game. The 30-year-old has just three points this season and will be returning in a bottom-line capacity.

Pearson (upper body) is expected to miss four-to-six weeks.

Pearson will likely shift to injured reserve in the coming days as he'll be out until at least early January. The 31-year-old has been held to four goals and eight points in 27 games this season. The team should provide an update once Pearson is closer to returning.

Eklund (lower body) will not be available Sunday against the Golden Knights, Max Miller of The Hockey News reports.

Eklund was a late scratch and will be replaced in the lineup by Givani Smith. The team should have an update on Eklund's status sometime before Tuesday's game against the Jets. He has six goals and 13 points in 27 games this season.

Connor (lower body) will not return to Sunday's game against the Ducks.

Connor put three shots on goal in 7:56 of ice time before leaving the game. The 28-year-old is in the middle of another impressive fantasy season with 17 goals and 28 points in 26 games. He has 21 points in his last 17 games, including seven multi-point games during that span. An update on Connor's status should be available before Tuesday's tilt with the Sharks.

Jones (upper body) is in Sunday's lineup against Winnipeg.

Jones missed Thursday's game against Chicago but will be good to go after the one-game absence. He's been limited to just six points in 22 games this season, including two over his last seven appearances.

Pearson (upper body) won't play Sunday against Nashville.

Pearson was injured in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over Buffalo. He has picked up four goals, eight points, 47 shots on net and 26 hits in 27 games this season. Pearson will be replaced in the lineup by Michael Pezzetta.

Haula (upper body) will not play Sunday against Edmonton, per the NHL's media site.

Haula was a late scratch during Sunday's warmups, so it's unclear how severe the injury is currently. Fortunately, it's unrelated to the lower-body issue that cost him three games at the end of November and the beginning of December. He's tallied seven goals and 13 points in 21 games this season. New Jersey's next game is Wednesday against Boston.

Gudbranson will have a hearing with the Department of Player Safety after he was the aggressor in an incident with Florida's Nick Cousins on Sunday.

Gudbranson racked up 29 PIM -- including a game misconduct in the third period -- and an assist in Sunday's loss to Florida. The 31-year-old has 10 points, 42 PIM and 66 blocked shots through 27 games. If he receives a suspension, he'll miss at least Thursday's game against Toronto.

Vlasic (personal) will not play Sunday against Vegas, Max Miller of The Hockey News reports.

Vlasic has moved in and out of the lineup recently as a healthy scratch but will now miss some time due to personal reasons. It's unclear how long he's expected to be out but the Sharks will be back in action Tuesday against Winnipeg. The 36-year-old has one assist with a minus-10 rating through 16 games.

Gavrikov (lower body) will not return to Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Gavrikov logged just 6:36 of ice time before suffering an injury Sunday. The 28-year-old defenseman has nine points in 25 games this season, including three over his last four appearances. An update on his status should be available before Wednesday's tilt with the Jets.

Bogosian (upper body) is expected to play Sunday against Seattle, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Bogosian missed the last four games and will suit up Sunday for the first time since Nov. 30. The 33-year-old defenseman has just one assist in 13 games with the Lightning and Wild this season.

Schultz (upper body) will not suit up Sunday against Minnesota, Kate Shefte of The Seattle Times reports.

Schultz was injured Saturday against Tampa Bay and will miss at least one game as a result. The veteran blueliner has nine points in 27 games this season and just one over his last six contests. Seattle's next game will be Tuesday against the Panthers.

Hutton continues to move between the AHL and NHL levels regularly. He hasn't dressed in an NHL game since Nov. 28.

Hill (lower body) will not be available Sunday against the Sharks, per the NHL's media site.

Hill has now missed five consecutive games and there's been little update on his status beyond his day-to-day designation. The 27-year-old is 10-2-2 with a stellar 1.87 GAA and .935 save percentage through 14 appearances. Vegas' next game is Tuesday against the Flames. Jiri Patera will get the starting nod Sunday.

During that stretch, he's gone 1-4-5 with an .893 save percentage. Daccord owns a 2.98 GAA and has just three wins in 14 appearances this season.

Hellebuyck will be stationed between the pipes in Anaheim on Sunday, Ducks PA Announcer Phil Hulett reports.

Hellebuyck has been borderline untouchable lately. Over his last seven appearances, he's given up just 11 goals on 208 shots, good for a .947 save percentage. He allowed two or fewer goals in each of those seven outings. The 30-year-old is 12-6-1 with 2.47 GAA and a .914 save percentage through 19 games.
