Hyman (COVID-19 protocols) was on the ice for Thursday's game-day skate, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hyman's return to the lineup will see him eventually restored to a top-six role, likely with Leon Draistail on the second line, but may have to settle for a third-line spot at the start to ease him back into the lineup. The 29-year-old winger is stuck in an 11-game goal drought dating back to Dec. 1 versus Pittsburgh and has just 18 shots over that stretch.
