Status report
Hellebuyck is expected to make his first start since making 41 saves to backstop Team USA in a 2-1 overtime win against Team Canada in the gold medal game at the Olympics on Sunday. … Vatrano appears set to return after missing two games for personal reasons and the previous 18 with a fractured shoulder; he practiced with the fourth line Thursday. … Terry will be a game-time decision after missing practice Thursday. … Granlund, a forward, also did not practice and likely will miss his second straight game.
