Avery Hayes really might be playing tonight. He got off the ice early this morning, not with the scratches. Though, that could have also been for the same reason Sergei Murashov got off early, to get to Bridgeport and join Wilkes-Barre.
But the NHL media site and AHL transactions page both now have Murashov in the AHL, but Hayes still in the NHL. There wasn't any indication at the optional skate of someone different being healthy scratched (like staying out late with the other scratches), but if someone was injured, that wouldn't have been apparent at the skate. Dan Muse declined to comment either way on the plan for Hayes.
