Status report
Portillo is expected make his NHL debut. Kuemper, a goalie, participated in the morning skate prior to the 4-1 win against the Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday, but is doubtful for the back-to-back games against Anaheim and the Ottawa Senators on Saturday. … Foegele was moved up to the top line with Kopitar and Kempe against Winnipeg, which will likely remain intact after combining for two goals and two assists. ... Carlsson, a forward, is day to day. He was injured in a 3-2 loss against the Seattle Kraken on Monday and did not play in a 5-2 win againt the Kraken on Wednesday. ... Anaheim recalled Hinds, a defenseman, from San Diego of the American Hockey League on Tuesday.
