Tatar (lower body) is not in Saturday's lineup against Ottawa, Eric Engels of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar will miss his third straight game Saturday. The veteran winger has 30 points in 46 games this season. There's no timetable for his return at the moment, so he'll be questionable for Monday's game against Toronto.

Tatar (lower body) will not be available for Friday's game against the Jets, Eric Engels of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar will miss his second straight game while dealing with a lower-body issue but it doesn't appear to be too serious of an injury as he is still considered day-to-day. The 30-year-old winger has 10 goals and 30 points on the year. He'll be questionable ahead of Saturday's tilt with the Senators.

It isn't clear what Tatar's dealing with, but another update on his status should surface prior to puck drop versus Toronto. If Tatar's unable to go, Michael Frolik will likely draw into the lineup against the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

Tatar (lower body) will be a game-time decision Monday in Calgary, per coach Dominique Ducharme.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar left Saturday's game against the Flames in the third period, and it's yet to be determined if he'll be forced to miss any additional time. Montreal's offense is set to get a boost with highly skilled rookie Cole Caufield making his NHL debut, but that positive impact would be neutralized by any extended absence from Tatar, who has amassed 10 goals and 29 points in 45 games this season.

Tatar (lower body) left Saturday's game versus the Flames in the third period, Eric Engels of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar came into Saturday's contest a bit "banged up," as described by teammate Tyler Toffoli. It's unclear if this early exit will force Tatar to miss any additional time. The Canadiens will likely want the top-six winger in the lineup if possible as they try to fend off the Flames' challenge for a playoff spot. The two teams clash again Monday.

Tatar provided a pair of assists and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar set up both of Josh Anderson's goals in the contest. The 30-year-old Tatar snapped his four-game point drought Wednesday. He's produced 29 points, 72 shots on net, a plus-9 rating and 55 hits through 43 contests overall. If he can put his skid behind him, Tatar could be a productive forward in fantasy in the later weeks of the season.
