Blackhawks' Ryan Donato: Scores in Monday's loss
Donato scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Sharks.
Donato opened the scoring for the Blackhawks with a wrister at the 9:01 mark of the first period, but the team couldn't hold on to the lead and gave up three unanswered goals that changed the flow of the game completely. Donato has 15 goals on the season, and this tally allowed him to snap a three-game pointless skid. However, with only four points in 19 games since the beginning of March, he's far from being a reliable option in most fantasy formats.

Matthew Tkachuk LW | FLA
Panthers' Matthew Tkachuk: Unavailable in Montreal
Tkachuk (personal) will not be an option for Tuesday's game in Montreal, Panthers TV Rinkside Reporter Katie Engleson reports.
Tkachuk has returned home to South Florida, as he and his wife are awaiting the birth of their first child. Fantasy managers shouldn't count on the left-shot winger being in the lineup for Thursday's game in Ottawa as well, and it remains to be seen if Tkachuk will rejoin the team during its road trip, which concludes Saturday in Toronto. Mackie Samoskevich could receive an elevated role in Montreal due to Tkachuk's absence.

Miles Wood LW | TOR
Blue Jackets' Miles Wood: Absent from morning skate
Wood is dealing with an illness, according to Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers.
While Wood's status is in question for Tuesday's contest in Detroit, it's unclear if he would have been in the lineup, as head coach Rick Bowness has decided to shake up the team's forward group. Either way, Wood can be considered a game-time call for this crucial matchup in the Eastern Conference playoff race.

Joel Hofer G | STL
Blues' Joel Hofer: Facing Colorado again
Hofer will defend the home net against the Avalanche on Tuesday, per Lou Korac of NHL.com.
Hofer will get his third straight start Tuesday, as he's posted solid performances in back-to-back wins in Anaheim and Colorado. The Manitoba native made 26 saves on 28 shots against the Avs on Sunday, keeping the Blues' playoff hopes alive in the process. Hofer will look to have a similar result Tuesday, as his club now sits five points behind the Kings for the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
