Overview

  • The team confirmed the week-to-week designation on Saturday, and Trocheck will miss the road game against the Penguins that night.
  • Trocheck was injured during Thursday’s 4-0 win in Buffalo and did not return after a second-period penalty-killing shift, having logged 7:48 with a primary assist and a 7-for-11 faceoff line.
  • Coach Mike Sullivan has moved Mika Zibanejad between Artemi Panarin and Alexis Lafreniere, elevated Conor Sheary with J.T. Miller and Will Cuylle, and inserted Juuso Parssinen as the third-line center.
  • Special-teams adjustments include Lafreniere stepping onto the top power-play unit in Trocheck’s absence.
  • The club has not announced an IR move, and cap constraints could limit AHL recalls unless LTIR becomes necessary, leaving internal options like Parssinen or Jonny Brodzinski to cover in the short term.
