Chernyshov (illness) is expected to be in the lineup Thursday versus the Maple Leafs, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

Chernyshov sat out Wednesday, but it looks like he's no longer too sick to play. The 20-year-old took line rushes alongside Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith. Chernyshov could also be a candidate for power-play time in his return after the brief absence.
