Neal will be sidelined against Detroit on Wednesday with an undisclosed injury but is considered day-to-day, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

It appears Neal may be playing through an ongoing injury concern which could see him miss the occasional game moving forward. Considering the 34-year-old winger is bogged down in a nine-game goal drought during which he has tallied just one assist, few fantasy players may be impacted by his absence. After being a lock 20-goal scorer for his first 11 NHL campaigns, Neal has missed that mark in three straight seasons and is poised to do so again in 2021-22.
