    Golden Knights' Kai Uchacz: Stays hot with three helpers

    Uchacz registered three assists in AHL Henderson's 8-3 win over Calgary on Thursday.

    Uchacz has four goals and six helpers during his six-game point streak. He crossed the 40-point mark with this effort, which has him at 13 goals and 28 helpers through 56 appearances this season. Uchacz also got into three NHL games this season, but he has yet to earn his first point for the Golden Knights.

  • Rangers' Mika Zibanejad: Bright light on Broadway

    Zibanejad scored a goal and added an assist Thursday in a 6-3 loss to the Blue Jackets. The assist came on the power play.

    Zibanejad is on a three-game, four-point scoring streak that includes two goals and two assists. He has 13 points (five goals, eight assists) in his last eight games; one goal and five assists have come with the man advantage. Zibanejad has been a true bright light on Broadway this season despite the team's miserable spot in last place in the Eastern Conference. He has 29 goals, 37 assists, 29 power-play points and 179 shots in 68 games this season. He's flirting with a potential 80-point season if he can keep firing. If he can pull it off, it would be Zibanejad's third season with at least that many points.

    Blue Jackets' Boone Jenner: Slow pace limits value

    Jenner scored a goal and added an assist in a 6-3 win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

    Jenner now has 10 goals, 21 assists and 107 shots in 53 games this season. Most of his production came earlier in the season. In his last 20 games, Jenner has just two goals and five assists.

    Fantilli scored twice Thursday in a 6-3 win over the Rangers. He fired a game-high nine shots.

    Fantilli scored the game winner on a second-period power play. His second goal sealed the win into the empty net. Fantilli's current scoring streak stands at five games and seven points (three goals, four assists). One goal and three of the assists came on the power play. Fantilli has been dominant since late January. He has 21 points, including nine goals, in 19 games since Jan. 24.

  • Flyers' Luke Glendening: Sustains lower-body injury

    Glendening missed Thursday's game versus the Kings due to a lower-body injury and is considered day-to-day.

    Glendening was a late scratch Thursday. The 36-year-old scored Wednesday versus the Ducks but apparently came out of the game a bit worse for wear. It's not yet clear if he'll suit up versus the Sharks on Saturday.

  • Flyers' Denver Barkey: Contending with injury

    Barkey missed Thursday's game versus the Kings due to an upper-body injury and is considered day-to-day.

    Barkey was a late scratch for the contest, forcing the Flyers to go with seven defensemen. The 20-year-old's day-to-day label suggests his injury isn't too serious at this point. The Flyers' next game is Saturday in San Jose.

  • Mammoth's Kevin Stenlund: Expected to play

    Stenlund (lower body) is expected to play against Vegas on Thursday.

    Stenlund missed Monday's 6-3 win over Dallas. He has four goals and 15 points in 66 outings in 2025-26. Stenlund is projected to serve on the fourth line alongside Alex Kerfoot and Kailer Yamamoto. Brandon Tanev is slated to be a healthy scratch due to Stenlund's return.

  • Flyers' Sean Couturier: Unavailable Thursday

    Couturier (upper body) won't play Thursday versus Los Angeles, per Kevin Kurz of The Athletic.

    Couturier has seven goals and 29 points in 66 outings in 2025-26. It's not clear how long he'll be out, but head coach Rick Tocchet doesn't think it'll be a long-term absence. Carl Grundstrom might draw back into the lineup Thursday due to Couturier's injury.

  • Kraken's Ryan Winterton: Battling illness

    Winterton will miss Thursday's game against Nashville because of an illness.

    Winterton has four goals and 18 points in 62 outings in 2025-26. Jani Nyman might draw into the lineup Thursday as a result of Winterton's absence.

  • Andrew Copp C | DET

    Red Wings' Andrew Copp: Slated to play Thursday

    Copp (leg) is expected to be in the lineup versus the Canadiens on Thursday, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.

    Copp has progressed quicker than expected in his return from a leg injury. He has missed three games but is now good to go in a middle-six role. The 31-year-old should also be a candidate for power-play time now that he's back in the lineup.
