Jay Harrison has been added to Team Canada

Jay Harrison has been added to Team Canada's roster for the upcoming world championship.

He was said to be suffering from a concussion at the end of the regular season. Maybe his status will be determined just before the tournament begins in May. If he is healthy and ready to play then he will join fellow Hurricanes Eric Staal, Jordan Staal and Jeff Skinner in Canada's lineup.

Jordan Caron skates with Duchene and Iginla

Jordan Caron skated alongside Matt Duchene and Jarome Iginla at practice on Tuesday.

He didn't record a point in 11 games for Boston this season, but Colorado appears to be giving him a good opportunity to succeed right off the bat. "It hasn't always been the way I wanted it to be in Boston, so I'm excited for a new start and to prove people wrong and show what I can do in the NHL," Caron said.

Frederik Andersen ties NHL record in 50th win

Frederik Andersen tied the NHL record for the fastest goaltender to reach the 50 career wins milestone when it comes to total decisions.

Andersen only needed 68 decisions (50-13-5) to reach that mark. Only Montreal's Bill Durnan, who got to the 50-win milestone on Dec. 16, 1944, has the same pace as Andersen in the history of the league. Andersen kicked out 29 of 30 shots in a 4-1 victory over Arizona on Tuesday. It was his first start since Feb. 8 due to a neck injury.

Christian Ehrhoff's concussion still an issue

According to a report out of Pittsburgh, Christian Ehrhoff's concussion-like symptoms have returned.

"I had a little bump in the road," Ehrhoff said. "I felt great Wednesday coming back and the next day, too. But I had some symptoms again, and we're being cautious with that. I've been seeing the doctors." It was a relapse of the symptoms for Ehrhoff who was sidelined for 13 of the last 14 games for Pittsburgh. Ehrhoff was scheduled to travel with the team Tuesday for the game tonight against Colorado in Denver but that seems unlikely now. We will pass along more information when it comes but be prepared to have him out of the lineup for a little while longer at least.

Henrik Sedin picks up career point 900

Henrik Sedin became the third fastest Swedish born NHL player to crack the 900 point mark with two goals in a 5-2 loss to San Jose on Tuesday.

Henrik Sedin has been racking up points during an eight game streak. He has five goals and 13 total points over the stretch for the injury riddled Canucks. Henrik's 44 assists rank third overall in the NHL and his 59 points in 64 games is good for 19th in the league. Brother Daniel picked up two assists in the loss and now has 56 points in his own right this year. It has been a really nice bounce-back year for the Sedins, who some people thought were on the wrong side of their careers after last season's dreadful campaign. Start them in all formats confidently.
