  • Flyers' Travis Konecny: Two helpers in overtime win

    Konecny contributed two assists and two shots on goal in a 3-2 overtime victory against Chicago on Saturday.

    In the third period, Konecny had the secondary helper on a goal by Sean Couturier to get the Flyers on the board. The 27-year-old Konecny completed the Flyers' comeback win by setting up Matvei Michkov's game-winner in the extra session. Konecny has 11 goals and 25 points through 21 games this campaign. He has failed to earn at least one point on only one occasion across his last nine outings, collecting six goals and nine helpers during that span.

  • Penguins' Vasily Ponomarev: Heads to minors

    Ponomarev was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Saturday.

    Ponomarev has no points, four shots, one hit and one block in three appearances with Pittsburgh in 2024-25. He also has an assist in five outings with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. Pittsburgh activated Kevin Hayes (upper body) from injured reserve in a corresponding move.

  • Wild's Marat Khusnutdinov: Out due to lower-body injury

    Khusnutdinov is a late scratch Saturday against Calgary because of a lower-body injury.

    Khusnutdinov has two assists, 18 hits and 15 blocks in 19 appearances in 2024-25. Minnesota will also be without the services of Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) following an injury he suffered against Edmonton on Thursday. Due to the absences of Khusnutdinov and Kaprizov, Travis Boyd will make his Wild debut, and Ben Jones will also draw into the lineup.

  • Ducks' Jansen Harkins: Loaned to AHL affiliate

    Harkins was assigned to AHL San Diego on Saturday.

    Harkins has one assist, three shots on goal, three blocked shots and 15 hits in six NHL outings this season. His return to the minors could bode well for the availability of Mason McTavish (upper body) or Brock McGinn (lower body) ahead of Monday's matchup against Seattle.

  • Filip Chytil C | NYR

    Rangers' Filip Chytil: Not expected to play

    Chytil (upper body) isn't expected to play Saturday versus Edmonton, according to Mollie Walker of the New York Post.

    Chytil will skate with the extras following the Rangers' morning skate, indicating he will miss his fourth straight game. He has generated four goals and nine points in 15 outings this season. Chytil's next chance to play will come Monday against the Blues.

  • Max Domi C | TOR

    Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Not playing Sunday

    Domi (lower body) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against Utah, according to David Alter of The Hockey News.

    Domi will miss his second consecutive game as he sat out Wednesday against Vegas. He has been in a big scoring slump, with nary a point in his last 13 games. Domi could return to action as early as Wednesday in Florida.

  • Blackhawks' Jason Dickinson: Good to go Saturday

    Dickinson (hand) is expected to be in the Chicago lineup for Saturday's matchup with the Flyers, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio.

    Dickinson was considered a game-time decision, but the 29-year-old center will ultimately suit up Saturday. Dickinson has four goals and seven points through 20 games this season.

  • Noah Gregor C | OTT

    Senators' Noah Gregor: Still out of action

    Gregor (undisclosed) will miss his fourth straight game Saturday versus Vancouver.

    Gregor has a pair of goals and an assist in 16 games this season, with both goals being game-winners. Once healthy, Gregor will fill a spot on the fourth line and be instrumental on the penalty kill.

  • Flyers' Anthony Richard: Returned to AHL

    Richard was assigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Saturday, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports.

    Richard was productive in his first stint with the Flyers, netting a pair of goals and six points in seven games. However, with Cam York returning from an upper-body injury, the 27-year-old Richard will head back to the AHL.

  • Maple Leafs' Auston Matthews: Skates ahead of practice

    Matthews (upper body) skated before Saturday's practice, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

    Matthews had not been seen skating since Nov. 10, making this an encouraging development. He left before Saturday's practice started, which probably means he won't play in Sunday's tilt against Utah. Still, Matthews could suit up in Wednesday's matchup versus Florida. He has missed the last seven games. Matthews has five goals and 11 points in 13 contests this campaign.
