Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (flu) may not be available for Saturday's game after all.
He was a late scratch Wednesday and did not skate on Friday. "What I had hoped was a 24-hour flu, which has hit multiple players here, is deeper than that. (Nugent-Hopkins) is still extremely weak today," coach Ralph Krueger said Friday. "With that being at least three days, we expect he will need as many days to get back."
