Krebs had a goal and two assists in Monday's 5-3 win over the Panthers. He also had seven hits.

Krebs' overall production (seven goals, 18 assists; 55 games) this season hasn't stood out, but he's recently picked up the pace with eight points (three goals, five assists), seven shots, 14 PIM, 16 hits and a plus-6 rating in his last seven outings. Krebs is on the Sabres' third line, so that lowers his fantasy ceiling.

Bennett exited Monday's game against the Sabres early with an upper-body injury and will not return.

After skating just over five minutes in the first period, Bennett was ultimately ruled out before the start of the third period. The injury comes at a rough time for the 29-year-old center, who was in the midst of an 11-point, 12-game stretch and was a top candidate to potentially replace Anthony Cirelli (undisclosed) on Team Canada, if Cirelli's injury is serious enough to keep him out through the Olympic break. Regardless, Bennett will have two chances to return to Florida's lineup before the Olympic break, with the first being Wednesday versus the Bruins. The veteran center can be considered day-to-day until the team provides further information.

Kerfoot (upper body) skated in a non-contact jersey during Monday's practice, per Cole Bagley of KSL Sports.

Kerfoot was seen participating in drills and even joined the team's defensemen during line skates. The 31-year-old forward has been out of Utah's lineup since he exited the team's Jan. 9 contest with an upper-body injury. His inclusion in the majority of Monday's morning skate is a sign that he is progressing towards a return, but no official timeline has been established by head coach Andre Tourigny. When Kerfoot is available, he'll likely return to being a rotational forward in Utah's bottom six.

Cooley (lower body) skated in a non-contact jersey during Monday's practice, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

Bagley noted that Monday marked the first time Cooley has participated in any drills at practice. Regarding Cooley's recovery, head coach Andre Tourigny said, "He's not there yet. He needs a little bit more time to heal and to get stronger but we're happy with the progression." The 21-year-old Cooley remains on injured reserve and likely won't be back in the lineup until after the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Lindholm (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Belle Fraser of the Bruins' official site reports.

Lindholm suffered an upper-body injury during last Tuesday's game against Nashville, and he was already ruled out for this Wednesday's matchup against the Panthers. While he'll technically be eligible to return for Thursday's game against the Blue Jackets, it wouldn't be surprising to see the Bruins hold him out ahead of the Olympic break. Lindholm is slated to play for Sweden during the upcoming Olympics, but it's not yet clear whether his injury will impact his availability.

Head coach Mike Sullivan said Monday that Laba (upper body) is considered day-to-day, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.

Laba exited Saturday's matchup against the Penguins due to an upper-body injury, but Sullivan seemed to downplay the severity of the issue. Laba participated in Monday's practice session and seems to have a chance to suit up Thursday against the Hurricanes.

Necas (lower body) won't be in the lineup against Detroit on Monday, according to Bailey Curtis of DNVR Sports.

Necas will miss his second straight game, but the team hopes to get him back for Wednesday's matchup against San Jose. He has amassed 22 goals, 62 points, 124 shots on net and 57 hits across 52 appearances this season. Due to Necas' absence, Valeri Nichushkin moved up to the top line in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Red Wings.

Head coach Lindy Ruff said that Norris (ribs) is progressing in his recovery but won't play in Monday's game against the Panthers, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.

Norris was upgraded to day-to-day last week, but he hasn't yet received the green light to return to game action. Following Monday's matchup, the Sabres have two more games on their schedule before the Olympic break, but it's not yet clear if the 26-year-old will be available Tuesday against the Lightning or Thursday against the Penguins.

Sturm (illness) will suit up against the Canadiens on Monday, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

Sturm will be back in the lineup after missing just one game due to illness. The veteran forward has been struggling offensively, going 13 games without a goal while generating a mere two helpers. Tyler Pitlick figures to be the odd man out with Sturm returning to a bottom-six role.

Monahan (illness) participated in Monday's practice, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Monahan should be available for Tuesday's matchup against New Jersey after leaving Saturday's 5-3 win over St. Louis. He has earned nine goals, 26 points, 80 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and 27 hits through 50 appearances this campaign.
