Nathan MacKinnon who has not played since January 26th when he was diagnosed with a concussion, has missed the last 4 games. We have just learned that he has cleared concussion-protocol and will be returning to the lineup for tomorrow's game against the Dallas Stars!

Nathan MacKinnon (nose/concussion) will return to the #GoAvsGo lineup on Sunday https://t.co/i0auc5dVGF� Daily Faceoff - Fantasy (@DFOFantasy) February 12, 2022

MacKinnon was crushed with a hit from Boston Bruins Taylor Hall, where MacKinnon's own stick rose up and hit himself in the face leaving him on the ice bleeding heavily!
