Whitney, Smyth likely to be scratched Tuesday
Ryan Whitney - D - Edmonton Oilers

Ryan Whitney and Ryan Smyth are expected to be healthy scratches Tuesday.
Whitney has been in coach Ralph Krueger's doghouse for much of this season, sabotaging whatever fantasy value he would have had. Smyth, meanwhile, has been struggling with penalties this season, particularly of late. Captain Canada has been called for six minors in the last four games and it appears Krueger has had enough. It's difficult to recommend either player until they find some sort of even footing.
