EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — Adam McQuaid’s misfortune becomes Tony DeAngelo’s opportunity.
After sitting out six straight and eight of the first 10 as a healthy scratch, No. 77 will get the call in LA on Sunday in the aftermath of the lower-body injury that forced McQuaid out of the game in Chicago on Thursday.
“Day-to-day,” coach David Quinn said of McQuaid’s status. “Hopefully, he’ll be back before the end of the trip.”
McQuaid’s response to treatment will inform whether the club promotes a defenseman for games in San Jose on Tuesday and Anaheim on Thursday.
