Tanev (ankle) will not return to Friday's game against the Devils, Irfaan Gaffar of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev sustained the injury upon taking a Kyle Palmieri shot off his ankle, per Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet. The fearless defenseman was only on the ice for 3:07 in the first period; he tried to tough it out but ultimately left for good after a TV timeout. Expect the team to provide an update on Tanev ahead of Sunday's road game against the Stars.
