Short Shifts - Chin Up and Shake Off The Rust

Ryan takes you on a quick skate through the leagues news and notes, touching on the downstream effects of the cancelled Kings/Blue Jackets game on Monday, Bryan Rust's suspension and how Yegor Chinakhov can benefit from it, and potential outjuries from Logan Cooley, Pierre-Luc Dubois, Anze Kopitar, Gabe Landeskog, Devon Toews, Denton Mateychuk upon which you may practice your newly acquired IR Shuffle skills. We lament the less than timely nature of Linus Ullmark's return to fantasy rosters before highlighting a few notable injuries and game time decisions on Tuesday, with players like Thatcher Demko, Dylan Guenther, Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, Brock Boeser, and Zeev Buium all missing their respective games Tuesday night. We get a better sense of which goalies might be tipping over into starter status, as well as digging in on some goalie strategy for the upcoming Olympic matchup before highlighting some standout performances from Beckett Sennecke, Mikael Granlund, Morgan Geekie, Jacob Melanson, Evan Bouchard and Matthias Ekholm.
