Marchessault (COVID-19 protocols) is trending toward a return for Saturday's game against the Oilers, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Marchessault has been on the protocols list since last Tuesday, but it appears he is close to a return. If he's not available Saturday, it seems like he'll play next Wednesday against the Ducks. Once Marchessault is activated from the non-roster list, he should return to a top-six role.
