Simon Despres "tweaked" his ailing knee on Thursday.

Despres has been sidelined with an injured MCL. "It's part of coming back," he said. "You're pushing your body. When you don't have those tweaks, you know you're ready." On Monday, coach Dan Bylsma suggested that Despres was "five-to-10 days" away from returning, but this recent setback might have derailed that timeline.
