Absent from practice Vatrano didn't practice ahead of Tuesday's clash with the Sharks while awaiting the birth of his child, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.

Impact Vatrano's designation allowed the team to bring Jansen Harkins up from the minors while Ross Johnston will also move into the lineup, likely in Vatrano's third-line spot.

He also shot 13.6 percent, which isn't outrageous for him, but is still likely to lead to some regression. It won't help that the additions of Cutter Gauthier and Robby Fabbri are set to eat into some of Vatrano's minutes both on the power play and at even strength. Vatrano can still offer decent category coverage, but he'll be most helpful in formats that don't play with plus-minus rating.
