Stars' Chris Tanev: Ready for Dallas debut
Tanev is expected to be in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Sharks.

The 34-year-old had 14 points and 171 blocked shots over 56 contests before the Flames traded him to the Stars last Wednesday.

Tanev (not injury related) will be a game-time decision Tuesday against the Sharks, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

Carson Soucy D | CLB
Canucks' Carson Soucy: Returning Tuesday
Soucy (hand) will be in action versus the Kings on Tuesday, Harman Dayal of The Athletic reports.
Soucy has been out of the lineup since Jan. 20 against Toronto, a stretch of 17 games on the shelf due to his hand problem. In total, injuries have limited the 29-year-old blueliner to a mere 21 outings in which he generated two goals, four assists and 15 shots. Mark Friedman will likely be dropped from the lineup with Soucy back in action.

Joel Hanley D | CGY
Flames' Joel Hanley: Claimed off waivers
Calgary claimed Hanley off waivers from Dallas on Tuesday, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
Hanley has registered three assists, 32 blocked shots and 36 hits in 32 games this season. He will probably get a chance to compete for playing time on Calgary's third pairing.

Guillaume Brisebois D | VAN
Canucks' Guillaume Brisebois: Waived for AHL demotion
Brisebois (upper body) was placed on waivers Tuesday for the purpose of assignment to AHL Abbotsford.
Assuming he clears, Brisebois will be activated from long-term injured reserve and assigned to the minors. He hasn't played since the preseason because of a suspected concussion. Brisebois had one goal, two assists and 27 blocked shots in 17 NHL outings last season. He also picked up six points in 36 AHL appearances during the 2022-23 campaign.

Conor Timmins D | BUF
Maple Leafs' Conor Timmins: Ready to return
Timmins (illness) told reporters he has "turned the corner" and would be ready to play when needed, Lance Hornby of The Toronto Sun reports Tuesday.
Timmins must still be activated off injured reserve before returning to the ice. The acquisition of Ilya Lyubushkin will only push Timmins further down the depth chart even once eligible to suit up. As such, fantasy players can likely pursue alternative options moving forward.

Martin Fehervary D | WAS
Capitals' Martin Fehervary: Back at practice
Fehervary (lower body) practiced in a non-contact jersey Tuesday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.
Fehervary will presumably need to take contact in practice before rejoining the lineup, but he's clearly making progress in his recovery. The 24-year-old defender has collected 12 points, 112 hits and 71 blocks through 47 contests this season.

Jayden Struble D | NSH
Canadiens' Jayden Struble: Ready to rock
Struble (lower body) will return to action Tuesday versus Nashville.
Struble will replace Johnny Kovacevic, who will be a healthy scratch, in the lineup following a four-game absence. The 22-year-old Struble has chipped three goals and four assists in 39 contests this season.
