Philp (concussion) was placed on injured reserve Friday.

Philp has no timeline to return at this point. He is in the concussion protocol. In a corresponding move, the Hurricanes replenished their defense by calling up Joel Nystrom.

The Islanders announced Friday that Horvat (lower body) is unlikely to join the team on its current road trip, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

The Islanders have three games remaining on their seven-game road trip, and while Horvat was initially expected to be with the team for the start of the trip, he's now been ruled out for the entire trip. However, the Islanders said that the 30-year-old hasn't experienced a setback in his recovery process, and he continues to skate at the team's facility. Horvat's next opportunity to suit up will be when the team returns home to face the Sabres on Jan. 24.

Eriksson Ek (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Friday, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.

Matt Boldy (undisclosed) was also put on IR, while Hunter Haight and Nicolas Aube-Kubel have been summoned from the minors. Eriksson Ek hasn't played since Jan. 8, so his placement can be retroactive to that date, which would enable Minnesota to activate him whenever he's healthy. Still, the Wild presumably wouldn't have put Eriksson Ek on IR unless he was expected to miss at least one more game, so look for him to remain on the shelf Saturday versus Buffalo. He has 11 goals and 32 points in 45 appearances in 2025-26.

Haight was recalled from AHL Iowa on Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

Haight was sent to the minors in mid-December, but he'll rejoin the NHL club a month later to provide additional depth after Matt Boldy (undisclosed) and Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) were placed on injured reserve Friday. Haight has appeared in just two games for Minnesota this year, recording no points, two hits and a minus-2 rating while averaging 9:22 of ice time.

Carlsson (lower body) will not be an option against Los Angeles on Friday, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.

The Ducks haven't offered much in the way of an update for Carlsson, with head coach Joel Quenneville telling reporters they will "know more sooner than later." In the meantime, Mason McTavish and Mikael Granlund will continue to fill the top-six center roles. With the team headed into a back-to-back, Carlsson should probably be considered a heavy doubt to face the Kings on Saturday.

Smith (upper body) will return to the lineup in Detroit on Friday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

Smith missed 13 games with the injury. The fourth pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, Smith has 12 goals and 17 assists in 33 games, establishing himself as a future star with the Sharks. He should line up on one of the top-two lines Friday and could return to his spot alongside Macklin Celebrini, giving Smith plenty of fantasy value.

Point (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Friday, per the NHL media site.

Point was already deemed week-to-week by the club, so it shouldn't come as a surprise to see him end up on injured reserve. In his last eight games before getting hurt, the Calgary native racked up five goals and six helpers, including a trio of power-play points. With an extended absence, Point could miss the 80-point threshold for the first time since 2021-22.

Barron notched an assist, four shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Wild.

Barron missed three games due to an upper-body injury. The 27-year-old forward has been a versatile option for the Jets this season, though he's most often worked on the fourth line. He's up to 15 points so far -- matching his regular-season total from 74 games a year ago. He's added 62 shots on net, 85 hits, 21 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 37 appearances, putting him on track for a career year.

Stephenson scored a power-play goal on two shots and went minus-2 in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Bruins.

Stephenson was in his second game back after missing two to attend to a personal matter. The 31-year-old center has racked up 16 points in 20 outings since the start of December to be one of the Kraken's steadiest forwards. He's at 12 goals, 28 points, 64 shots on net, 33 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 44 appearances this season.

Kastelic scored a shorthanded goal on three shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

Kastelic has scored in back-to-back contests after going 15 games without a goal. The 26-year-old now has career highs in goals (eight) and points (15) through 48 appearances this season. He's added plenty of grit in a bottom-six role, logging 126 hits, 99 PIM and 43 blocked shots. There's room for him to contribute in deep fantasy formats.
