Ekblad (concussion) will return to the lineup Tuesday night against the visiting Hurricanes, George Richards of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ekblad, who has 10 goals and 11 assists countered by an ugly minus-22 rating, will be looking for a strong rebound from a four-game absence. He had missed tough road contests against the Blue Jackets, Rangers and Penguins respectively, but will be ready to reprise his role as a power-play weapon on the top defensive pair with Keith Yandle.
