Nikita Zaitsev - Ready to rock Zaitsev (upper body) will return to action Sunday versus Minnesota, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
Impact Following a three-game absence, Zaitsev will replace Jarred Tinordi in the lineup. The 32-year-old Zaitsev has two goals, seven points, 30 shots on net, 69 blocked shots and 68 hits in 36 appearances this season.

Arvid Soderblom - Starting vs. Wild Soderblom will guard the home net Sunday against Minnesota, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Impact Soderblom was sharp in his last outing, stopping 30 of 31 shots in a win over the Flyers. Overall, the 24-year-old netminder is 5-20-1 this season with an .879 save percentage and 3.90 GAA. Soderblom will face a Wild team averaging 3.00 goals per game.

Andreas Athanasiou - Finally lights lamp Saturday Athanasiou scored his first goal of the season in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Stars.
Impact The 29-year-old center has been limited to 22 games this season due to a groin injury he suffered in November, and it took him until Chicago's 76th contest to finally find the back of the net. Athanasiou has only four points in 11 games since returning to the lineup as he skates on the third line at even strength and sees shifts on the second power-play unit -- roles that keep him away from Connor Bedard, and far from significant fantasy value.

Petr Mrazek - Stands on head in Saturday's win Mrazek made 42 saves in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Stars.
Impact Dallas out-shot Chicago 44-17 on the afternoon, but Mrazek was stellar and didn't allow his first goal until late in the second period, after his squad had already built a 3-0 lead. The 32-year-old netminder is 5-3-0 over his last nine outings (eight starts) with a 2.54 GAA and .921 save percentage, and Mrazek needs to find two more wins in Chicago's last six games to record his fourth career 20-win campaign.
