Schultz (upper body) is considered day-to-day but won't be ready to play against Philadelphia on Thursday, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Schultz is having a down year compared to his first season with Washington in which he generated 27 points in 46 games. Instead, the 31-year-old blueliner has just 13 points in the same number of contests this year. While John Carlson will continue to feature on the No. 1 power play, without Schultz, Nick Jensen could get some chance with the second unit.
