Still a rollercoaster ride. Sigh ... Go Ducks!

TSN's Ice Chips
Forward Ryan Getzlaf sat out a third consecutive game on Saturday. The inflammation on the deep cut near his right knee is preventing him from skating comfortably. Defenceman Ryan Whitney took a puck to the face during Saturday's game, but returned to the game. He didn't lose any teeth, but has a gash on his face. - Orange County Register
The newly signed Miroslav Satan is expected to practice with the club on Sunday. - Boston Herald
Defenseman Niklas Hjalmarsson "is doing much better" according to coach Joel Quenneville. Hjalmarsson, who was hit in the head with a puck when he was on the bench against the Devils, is considered day-to-day. While he didn't play on Saturday, there is a chance he could suit up Sunday against the Ducks. - Chicago Sun Times
Defenseman John-Michael Liles, who was a healthy scratch for two straight games, returned to the lineup Saturday, because Brett Clark was out with a facial injury. - Denver Post
Forward Jared Boll suffered an apparent hand or wrist injury after a fight with Colorado’s Cody McLeod on Saturday. He didn't play in the third period. Winger Alexandre Picard also appears to have suffered a lower body injury. - Columbus Dispatch
According to head coach Pete DeBoer, winger David Booth could possibly be out for the rest of the season because of a concussion. - Miami Herald
Defenceman Brent Burns, who has been sidelined with a concussion, will travel Sunday with the Wild to Chicago. It's unclear if he'll practice Monday though. - Star Tribune
Both Sergei and Andrei Kostitsyn will be game time decisions for Sunday's game against the Sabres. Both players did not practice on Saturday, taking therapy days. Defeceman Paul Mara, who has missed five games with a wrist/hand injury could return to the lineup. The club has not announced if Jaroslav Halak or Carey Price will start. - Montreal Gazette
Forward Jerred Smithson will resume skating on Monday. He has missed five stright games with a broken hand, and is still a week or two away from returning to game action. Forward Jordin Tootoo, who has missed the last 10 contests with a broken foot is three weeks away from returning. - Tennessean
According to an Islanders spokesman, goaltender Rick DiPietro was "feeling great" after playing a full AHL game for Bridgeport on Friday night. The club has given no new information on his timetable for return. - Newsday
Goaltender Henrik Lundqvist, who got a stinger down his left arm in the third period of Saturday's game, said after the contest that he was OK. - Bergon Record
Goalie Ray Emery, who is recuperating from abdominal surgery, practiced on Saturday. Emery believes he is a week ahead of schedule. - Philadelphia Inquirer
Forward Scottie Upshall sufferd a lower-body injury in the second period of Saturday night's game. - Arizona Republic
The team announced Sunday that they have re-assigned defenceman Mathieu Schneider to the Manitoba Moose of the AHL. - Team Media Release
Forward Nicklas Backstrom left in the second period of Saturday's game because of recurring migraines.- Washington Post
