Carter (upper body) has rejoined his teammates in Vancouver, but remains day-to-day heading into Monday's game against the Canucks, the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis:
Carter reportedly returned to Los Angeles for personal reasons, though neither he nor the team revealed exactly why. Regardless, he's now back with the team, and the upper-body injury is the only thing keeping him out of the lineup. The veteran's status for Monday's game remains unclear, but pregame warm-ups should confirm it.
