Los Angeles Kings winger Viktor Arvidsson (lower body) is considered week-to-week after he missed Monday's 3-2 overtime victory against Montreal.

Evan Bouchard Regarded As A Game-Time Decision

Edmonton Oilers defenseman Evan Bouchard (illness) is a game-time decision for Monday's Battle of Alberta against Calgary.
