Boston Bruins winger Viktor Arvidsson (lower body) is not expected to be in the lineup on Sunday against the Minnesota Wild, Jim McBride of The Boston Globe reports. The Swedish veteran sustained a lower-body injury in Thursday's win over the Winnipeg Jets. Arvidsson has played well in a limited role this season, recording 14 points (seven goals, seven assists) in 25 outings despite averaging only 14:15 of ice time. He has skated on the third line and the second power-play unit. Jeffrey Viel or Michael Eyssimont is expected to fill Arvidsson's spot in the lineup on Sunday.

Vancouver Canucks forward Elias Pettersson (upper body) won't play in Sunday's contest against the New Jersey Devils, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports. Pettersson has made only two appearances this month, missing time due to an upper-body injury. With Quinn Hughes now out of the picture, Pettersson sits at the top of Vancouver's scoring charts, posting 22 points (eight goals, 14 assists) in 28 contests this season. David Kampf has played a larger role during Pettersson's absence, although he hasn't made an impact offensively. On Sunday, Marco Rossi (lower body) could enter the frame if he is cleared for action.

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (upper body) will sit out a second consecutive game on Sunday versus the Boston Bruins, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports. The Swedish veteran is dealing with an upper-body injury and was replaced in the lineup by David Jiricek in Saturday's win over the Ottawa Senators. Brodin has recorded a team-high 66 blocks in 30 games, while picking up nine points (three goals, six assists). Jiricek logged over two and a half minutes of power-play time on Saturday, but he still failed to pick up his first point of the season. Another change is coming on the Wild blue line against Boston, as Quinn Hughes is expected to make his team debut.

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Emil Lilleberg (undisclosed) was limited to 13:30 of ice time in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the New York Islanders. He missed the third period, leaving the Lightning without another blue-liner. Victor Hedman (shoulder), Ryan McDonagh (undisclosed), and Erik Cernak (undisclosed) all missed Saturday's game. Lilleberg's offensive contributions have been limited to two goals and four assists in 32 games this season. However, he is second on the team with 53 hits and averages a block per game. Due to Tampa's current injury situation, Darren Raddysh, J.J. Moser, and Charle-Edouard D'Astous are logging big minutes on the blue line.
