Utah Hockey Club will get forward Nick Bjugstad back from injury on Saturday.
Nick Bjugstad will make his season debut with Utah on Saturday against the Los Angeles Kings.Forward Nick Bjugstad will make his season debut against the Los Angeles Kings after being sidelined with an upper-body injury at the start of Utah’s training camp. The Hockey Club has potted just two goals in regulation through the last three games and is looking for a spark to get its offensive production going again.
Utah’s lines shuffled starting in the second period of Thursday’s 5-1 loss against the Colorado Avalanche at the Delta Center. The Hockey Club had just five shots on goal after the first period and struggled to get high-dangers chances on net throughout the game. When playing together last season in Arizona, the line of Bjugstad, Crouse and Maccelli combined for a team-leading 22 goals in 49 games, according to Natural Stat Trick. Maccelli was moved down to the fourth line for the last few games and has logged four assists through eight matchups.
“ was joking this morning,” Tourigny said. “He got hit by OB in practice and he said, ‘If I can survive that, I’m OK. I can play.’ That’s a pretty hard hit.”
