Whitecloud (upper body) will suit up in the season finale against the Kings on Thursday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

Whitecloud (upper body) will return to the lineup against the Islanders on Saturday.

Scouting Report

The undrafted defenseman was signed out of college hockey and has used his size and physicality to earn a regular spot in the NHL. He is at his best when focused on keeping the puck out of his own net; he makes an excellent running mate for an offensive partner. He has grown into the kind of player coaches trust in key situations, and his offensive upside is showing itself as he gets more comfortable in the NHL.

Long Range Potential: Reliable stay-at-home defenseman.
