However, Tkachuk continues to be evaluated by medical personnel’s to ensure that there’s no serious injury.
Tkachuk got injured playing for the United States at the 4 Nations Face-Off.
“We have a pretty good idea of where it’s at,” Maurice said after practice. “We need to make sure everyone looks at the pictures the same way. We are always vague on these before we get the [medical] report because there is always a chance that there’s something unusual. We don’t think there is. We’re not worried about it.”
Ville Husso was traded from the Detroit Red Wings to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for future considerations. The 30-year-old goaltender had struggled with the Red Wings this season, posting a 1-5-2 record with a 3.69 goals-against average (GAA) and an .866 save percentage in nine NHL games. He was subsequently assigned to Grand Rapids in the AHL, where he performed better with an 8-4-0 record, a 2.70 GAA, and a .912 save percentage.
Husso is set to join Anaheim’s AHL affiliate in San Diego as the Ducks deal with injuries at the goaltender position. The move comes ahead of the NHL trade deadline on March 8.
Real Madrid are reportedly intensifying their interest in Bournemouth defender Dean Huijsen. Dean Huijsen who’s currently 19-year-old joined Bournemouth from Juventus last summer, has impressed many with his form in his debut Premier League season and is currently attracting attention from top European clubs, including Madrid.
Okdiario’s chief pundit Eduardo Inda, while speaking on El Chiringuito, said on Monday night: “It is obvious that Real Madrid needs central defenders. One they really liked was (Aymeric) Laporte, but it was not possible because the cost was very beastly.
“The Saudis paid €30m and pay him €20m net, but there is a younger alternative, with more speed and who is succeeding in the lower teams and Luis de la Fuente will take him to the World Cup. He is loved by Real Madrid very much.”
Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti acknowledged on Tuesday that his team is performing well despite a demanding schedule, calling the football calendar “absurd” and “unsustainable.”
If Madrid reach the latter stages of the Champions League and Copa del Rey, along with competing in the Club World Cup this summer, they could end up playing 72 matches this season.
So far, Madrid have secured the Intercontinental Cup and the European Super Cup but suffered a defeat to Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final in Saudi Arabia.
“Taking into account the absurd calendar we have to deal with, that all teams have to, not just us, we’re doing very well,” Ancelotti told reporters.
“All teams that are fighting and battling in these moments are doing very well, because it’s an unsustainable calendar.”
Los Blancos face Real Sociedad in a Copa del Rey semi-final first-leg clash in the Basque country on Wednesday.
“In the span of 52 days, tomorrow will be our 17th game,” continued Ancelotti.
Karim Benzema has opposed Cristiano Ronaldo’s claim that he is the best of all time. He stated that Brazillian legend Ronaldo Nazario is more deserving of the title.
The Manchester United legend, who spent nine years as Ronaldo’s teammate after they both joined Real Madrid in 2009, witnessed the Portuguese forward break numerous records throughout his La Liga career.
However, this didn’t influence his opinion of who he believes is the greatest of all time.
Karim Benzema said: “Everyone can say what they want. If he thinks he’s the best in history, fine, then it’s him.
Vitor Roque permanent exit from Barcelona is at risk of collapsing after a late snag in negotiations. Although Barcelona had agreed to sell him to Palmeiras for €25 million, Real Betis, where he is currently on loan, has yet to approve the early termination of his deal.
With the Brazilian transfer window closing on February 28, this delay threatens to derail Vitor Roque move.
Barcelona coach Hansi Flick has urged referees to put more effort into protecting players after one of his players, Lamine Yamal sustained a horrific injury against Las Palmas last weekend.
After the game, Yamal posted an image of his blood-stained sock on social media, sarcastically captioning it, “It’s not a foul!”
Despite the injury, the 17-year-old managed to avoid serious harm and may still be available for the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night.
“I think he will be able to play, I have a positive feeling” – Hansi Flick has asked for “hard fouls” to be more seriously punished as a deterrent.
“We can’t say that Lamine or certain players are specially protected, it should be for everyone. If they don’t get yellow cards, hard fouls keep being repeated,” the Barca coach said.
“We have to protect them. I think it’s the sensible thing to do. Not just some special players, but all of them. In Spain we all like to see the one-v-ones, to see those footballers who are capable of getting past the defenders, they have to be protected.”
LaLiga president Javier Tebas has hinted that the dispute with Barcelona over Dani Olmo’s registration has come to an end.
Initially, after Barcelona obtained the temporary legal status right to register Olmo in January, La Liga acted like they would appeal the decision.
However, during his appearance at Europa Press Breakfast Conference, Tebas spoke in a more conciliatory tone, easing tensions on the matter.
He stated: “It must always be busy and worried about the financial situation. Barça is coming off terrible losses from the covid era and it needs to recover. And then with operations like Barça Estudios, they haven’t gone well. It must be worried and busy. I imagine that Real Madrid is also worried about the stadium issue, Betis, Sevilla, Valencia with the new stadium…”
On Olmo, he continued: “When I said I hope it’s because I was hoping that Barça would solve its problems. There were four months since August for Barça to find solutions.
“There was time and a way to work, they wanted to solve it quickly and in three days. On January 3, after the guarantees that we had asked for, because the company did not seem very solvent, the money arrived and then they went to the CSD and in 24 hours they resolved it.”
“And they gave them a precautionary measure, putting some things into question. Olmo signed his agreements knowing that in December he might not be registered. I knew that he was aware that this could happen to him.”
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has stated that his squad has no intention of giving up the Premier League title race. He told reporters on Tuesday that regardless of the injuries and setbacks, his team has done well.
In the report he said. “We’re not going to stop. Over my dead body,”
If somebody tells you at the start of the season that you play five times with a red card, over half an hour in each of those games, and you have lost this amount of players… you’re in the middle of the table at least,” Arteta said.
“That’s not the situation. So that tells you the resilience, resources, the ambition the team has.”
