Dubnyk is listed as day-to-day after being
injured in a collision during the opening minutes of the second
period Tuesday against the Edmonton Oilers.
Edmonton's Brandon Manning slid into Dubnyk's leg, and
Minnesota's Ryan Donato fell to the ice and was also sliding
into the goal area. Dubnyk couldn't avoid Manning, and the
contact flipped him to where he landed heavily on his upper back
and head. He was replaced by Alex Stalock, who made 16 saves to
complete a combined 3-0 shutout. Dubnyk, 33, had nine saves
before leaving.
Dubnyk, a three-time All-Star, is just 2-5-0 with a 3.92
goals-against average and .880 save percentage in seven games
this season.
--Colorado Avalanche right winger Mikko Rantanen is considered
week-to-week with a lower-body injury, coach Jared Bednar
announced.
Rantanen was injured after he toe-picked the ice with his left
skate early in the second period of Colorado's 3-1 loss to the
St. Louis Blues on Monday. He did not return.
Rantanen, who signed a six-year, $55.5 million contract this
summer, is tied with linemate Nathan MacKinnon for the team lead
in goals (five) and points (12) this season.
--Ottawa Senators center Colin White is expected to miss three
to five weeks with a hip flexor/groin injury, and forward Artem
Anisimov is expected to be out one to two weeks with a
lower-body injury.
Both players were placed on injured reserve. General manager
Pierre Dorion said White has been playing through the injury,
which is believed to have occurred Oct. 19 against Arizona.
In a corresponding move, the Senators recalled forwards Logan
Brown and J.C. Beaudin from Belleville of the AHL.
