Zuccarello (lower body) has been ruled out for Thursday's game in Carolina, per Joe Smith of The Athletic.

Zuccarello has a good chance to return to the lineup Friday against the Islanders. The 38-year-old native of Norway will miss his 15th game of the season. He will replace Marcus Johansson on the top line, alongside Kirill Kaprizov and Marco Rossi, if he is cleared to play Friday.
