Matthews (knee/quad) sustained a Grade 3 MCL tear and a quadriceps contusion Thursday versus the Ducks. He will be reevaluated in two weeks, but he has been ruled out for the remainder of the season.

Matthews took a knee-on-knee hit from Radko Gudas, and it will be enough to end the Toronto captain's campaign. The Maple Leafs haven't been mathematically eliminated from the playoff race yet, but it's hard to see a path forward for them to get there without Matthews. He ends the campaign with 27 goals and 53 points over 60 appearances, his lowest scoring numbers in any of his 10 NHL campaigns. It's unclear if he'll be cleared in time to have the option to represent Team USA at the IIHF World Championship.

Nugent-Hopkins (personal) won't play in Friday's game versus the Blues, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

Nugent-Hopkins is away from the team for the time being. Max Jones will enter the lineup, but Matt Savoie is poised for the biggest bump in usage. Nugent-Hopkins' next chance to play is Sunday at home versus the Predators.

Dach (undisclosed) was moved to long-term injured reserve Friday, per PuckPedia.

Dach suffered the injury during Tuesday's game against Colorado. He has three goals, 10 points, 47 PIM, 52 shots, 195 hits and 27 blocks between Chicago and Edmonton in 2025-26. The Oilers acquired him from Chicago on March 4. Dach will be in the mix for a fourth-line spot once he's ready to return.

Lowry logged an assist and six hits in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Rangers.

Lowry set up a Gabriel Vilardi goal to tie the game at 3-3 in the third period. The helper ended a five-game point drought for Lowry, who has gone 19 contests without a goal. He has six assists and 22 shots on net in that span. For the season, the veteran center is at just 17 points with 56 shots on net, 110 hits, 34 blocked shots and 21 PIM over 52 appearances in a middle-six role.

Vilardi scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and went minus-2 in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Rangers.

Vilardi has two goals over his last three contests. He's been on the second line more often lately as the Jets try to cobble together different line combinations to balance their offense. The 26-year-old has produced 25 goals, 54 points, 121 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 64 appearances, so he should remain a steady scorer in fantasy regardless of his role.

Trocheck logged two assists, four hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Jets.

Trocheck hasn't scored in his last eight games, but he has nine assists in that span. The center helped out on goals by Adam Edstrom and Noah Laba late in the third period to give the Rangers breathing room Thursday. Trocheck is up to 45 points (12 goals, 33 helpers), 88 shots on net, 149 hits, 40 blocked shots, 46 PIM and a minus-15 rating over 50 appearances in a top-six role.

Edstrom scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Jets.

Edstrom's goal was his first point in five games since he returned from a lower-body injury that cost him three months. The 25-year-old is in a bottom-six role for now, and it's unclear if he'll play regularly for the season of the season. He's contributed just five points with 27 shots on net, 55 hits and a plus-4 rating over 29 appearances.

Laba scored a goal and added four hits in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Jets.

Laba has two goals and two assists over his last four contests. He's found extra success since the Rangers put him with Tye Kartye on the third line, as the duo has clicked well to give the Rangers some depth scoring. Laba is up to eight goals, 20 points, 58 shots on net, 93 hits and 39 blocked shots over 62 appearances as a rookie.

Miller (upper body) was deemed a game-time call ahead of Saturday's matchup with Minnesota after head coach Mike Sullivan told reporters, "I would anticipate him playing, but he'll be a game-time decision," Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

Miller was skating with the top power-play unit at Friday's practice, so fantasy managers can anticipate the veteran forward will be cleared to play. Once given the green light, Miller will have a chance to get over the 40-point threshold for the 11th straight season, though he could post his lowest point total since 2020-21.

Bjugstad logged an assist in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Flames.

This was Bjugstad's first point in nine outings with the Devils since he was dealt from the Blues. The 33-year-old has taken over a consistent fourth-line spot, so it's unlikely he maintains much offense over the rest of the season. He's earned eight points, 65 shots on net, 85 hits and 27 PIM across 44 appearances this season.
