Nugent-Hopkins (concussion) continues to progress, but has been ruled out for Saturday's tilt against Calgary.
Analysis:
The former first-overall pick has endured an injury-riddled season, playing only 52 games. Nugent-Hopkins' play has taken a step back while he has been on the ice, scoring at a rate 0.63 points per game, opposed to a rate of 0.74 last season. Expect RNH to return at some point before the conclusion of the 2015-16 campaign.
