Lawrence Pilut - Sent back to minors Pilut was reassigned to AHL Rochester on Wednesday.
Impact Pilut's demotion could be an indication that Riley Stillman (upper body) or Mattias Samuelsson (upper body) will be ready to return for Thursday's clash with Dallas. In his last appearance, the 27-year-old Pilut racked up one goal, one assist and one shot despite logging just 13:31 of ice time. Even if Pilut is recalled before Thursday's clash, he will likely serve as a healthy scratch again.

Jacob Bryson - Snags helper Monday Bryson registered an assist in Monday's 3-2 defeat to Edmonton.
Impact Bryson finally ended his 26-game pointless streak that stretched back to Dec. 7 versus Columbus. Still, if the 25-year-old blueliner can pick up at least one more point this season, he'll match his career best of 10 set last season. GIven his lack of offensive upside, Bryson shouldn't be expected to offer more than low-end fantasy value moving forward.
