Guentzel (COVID-19) was on the ice for Monday's practice session, Rob Rossi of The Athletic reports, indicating he's cleared the league's protocols.
EDGE Analysis
Guentzel's return to the ice doesn't guarantee he'll be available for Opening Night against the Lightning on Tuesday, as he'll need to get back up to full speed after missing over a week of practice time. If Guentzel isn't ready to play versus Tampa Bay, his spot on the first line could fall to Danton Heinen, while Jason Zucker would be the most likely candidate to jump up to the No. 1 power-play unit.
