Makar exited Thursday's game against Ottawa and won't return to the match because of a lower-body injury.
Makar had two shots in 13:57 of ice time before exiting the game. He has five goals and 23 points in 19 appearances in 2026-27, including Thursday's action. There is no replacing Makar, but Alex Gagne might make his NHL debut Saturday in Montreal if Makar is on the shelf.
