DeMelo won't play Thursday versus the Ducks, Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear what is keeping DeMelo out of the lineup, but it's significant enough to cost him at least one game. Kyle Capobianco will slot in on the third pairing in DeMelo's usual spot. More information on DeMelo's status should be available before Saturday's game versus the Penguins.
