  • Ivan Ryabkin C | CAR

    Hurricanes' Ivan Ryabkin: Finishes week strong

    Ryabkin scored a goal and added two assists in QMJHL Charlottetown's 3-2 overtime win over Quebec on Sunday.

    Ryabkin was held off the scoresheet Saturday to end an eight-game point streak, but he bounced right back. The Hurricanes prospect has already earned 15 points over five games in March and is up to 12 goals and 37 points through 17 contests in the QMJHL this season.

  • Oliver Moore C | CHI

    Blackhawks' Oliver Moore: Won't return to Sunday's game

    Moore has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Stars due to an apparent injury, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.

    Moore exited Sunday's matchup in the first period after going down with an undisclosed injury, and he was ruled out at the start of the second period after he wasn't on the bench following intermission. Prior to his departure, he recorded an assist in 1:49 of ice time. It's not yet clear whether his injury will force him to miss additional time.

  • Tyson Kozak C | BUF

    Sabres' Tyson Kozak: Won't play Sunday

    Kozak (undisclosed) wasn't in line rushes ahead of Sunday's contest against the Lightning and won't play, Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News reports.

    Kozak will miss a third consecutive game with an undisclosed injury. The 23-year-old has two goals and two assists, 98 hits and 33 blocked shots on the season while averaging 11:21 of ice time per night. His next chance at a return will be Tuesday against the Sharks.

  • Lightning's Gage Goncalves: Out Sunday

    Goncalves (lower body) won't play Sunday night against the Sabres, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Goncalves hasn't played in any of the Lightning's three games in March so far due to injury, and he is considered day-to-day. The 25-year-old has 20 points (seven goals, 13 assists) in 54 games on the season. His next chance to return will be Tuesday against the Blue Jackets.

  • Ducks' Mikael Granlund: Activated from IR

    Granlund (upper body) was removed from injured reserve Sunday, according to the NHL media site.

    Following a six-game absence, Granlund appears ready to return to the lineup against St. Louis on Sunday. He has supplied 12 goals, 27 points, 78 shots on net, 26 blocked shots and 24 hits across 38 appearances this season.

  • Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Removed from LTIR

    Howden (lower body) was activated from long-term injured reserve Sunday, per the NHL media site.

    As expected, Howden will return to the lineup against Edmonton on Sunday after missing the last 20 games. He has contributed nine goals, 15 points, 46 shots on net and 66 hits across 39 appearances this season.

  • Jets' Jonathan Toews: Pockets helper Saturday

    Toews notched an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canucks.

    Toews set up a Mark Scheifele tally late in the second period. This was Toews' second straight game with a helper, but he is in the midst of a 16-game goal drought. The 37-year-old is up to 21 points, 84 shots on net, 27 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-17 rating through 62 appearances this season.

  • Kings' Scott Laughton: Scores in Los Angeles debut

    Laughton scored a goal and added four hits in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canadiens.

    Laughton was limited to fourth-line usage in Toronto this season, but the Kings had him on the third line with ice time in all situations. If that holds, that's a huge boost to his fantasy value, making him viable in deeper formats. Laughton has nine goals, four assists, 54 shots on net, 82 hits, 28 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating across 44 appearances this season. Laughton last got steady power-play time in 2022-23 and 2023-24, which were the two best seasons of his career with 43 and 39 regular-season points, respectively.

  • Jake Evans C | MON

    Canadiens' Jake Evans: Tallies in win

    Evans scored a goal in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Kings.

    Evans has quietly assembled a four-game point streak, earning two goals and three assists in that span. He's playing in a bottom-six role, but his defensive duties continue to boost his ice time. Evans has earned nine goals, 18 points, 51 shots on net, 56 hits and 36 blocked shots over 48 outings this season.

  • Oilers' Adam Henrique: Game-time decision

    Henrique (knee) is a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Golden Knights.

    Henrique was injured blocking a shot Friday against the Hurricanes, and he'll be a game-time decision for Sunday. The 36-year-old has 10 points (two goals, eight assists) in 48 games on the season. If he can't go, it's likely that Josh Samanski, who was recalled earlier Sunday on an emergency basis, will draw into the lineup in Henrique's place.
