Mats Zuccarello Ready for Action Tuesday
Los Angeles Kings right wing Mats Zuccarello (undisclosed) has been officially cleared to return to the lineup on Tuesday night against Washington. He has shaken off an undisclosed injury and will be in action after missing three games. Zuccarello has one assist in three games with the Kings. His start to the season has been disappointing, but he's capable of turning things around.

Matt Roy Returning From Six-Game Absence Tuesday
Washington Capitals defenseman Matt Roy (lower body) will return to action on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Kings. After sitting out six games due to a lower-body injury, Roy practiced in full capacity on Monday and was on the first defensive pairing in Tuesday's morning skate. "He's a big part of our team," Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery said. "Plays in a lot of different situations. Logs a lot of minutes. Good leader for our team, so it'll be good to get him back." While Roy's return is great news for the Capitals, his game doesn't translate to fantasy, and managers can ignore him.
