Impact Joshua has 13 goals, 26 points, 46 PIM and 195 hits in 53 contests this season. He was last in the lineup Feb. 13. The 27-year-old is projected to serve on the second line alongside J.T. Miller and Brock Boeser in his return, but Joshua might not be deployed on the power play.

On injured reserve Joshua (upper body) was put on injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact The move can be retroactive to Feb. 13, so Joshua can be activated whenever he's healthy.
