  • Bruins' Elias Lindholm: Grabs two points on power play

    Lindholm scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.

    Lindholm earned his first multi-point effort since Opening Night with this performance. He had only two points in his previous six outings. For the season, the 30-year-old center is up to nine points, including seven on the power play, through 12 contests. He's added 22 shots on net, 19 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating while filling a top-line role. He's well on his way to making 2025-26 better than last season, when he had 47 points in 82 regular-season games.

  • Blues' Robert Thomas: Not expected to return Thursday

    Thomas (upper body) isn't expected to play Thursday against Vancouver, but he is making progress in his recovery, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports Wednesday.

    Thomas has missed St. Louis' past two games because of his injury. He has a goal and six points in eight appearances in 2025-26. When Thomas is ready to return, he'll likely serve on the Blues' top line and first power-play unit. His return would probably push Pius Suter out of the top six.

  • Blues' Dalibor Dvorsky: Called up by St. Louis

    Dvorsky was recalled from AHL Springfield on Wednesday, Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    Dvorsky made two regular-season appearances for the Blues last year but began the 2025-26 campaign in the minors. He's had a solid start to the year with the Thunderbirds, racking up three goals, two assists and four PIM over his first six appearances of the season. He'll provide additional depth for the NHL club since Robert Thomas (upper body) has missed the last two games.

  • John Hayden C | SEA

    Kraken's John Hayden: Sent down Wednesday

    Hayden was reassigned to AHL Coachella Valley on Wednesday.

    After being called up by the Kraken on Oct. 17, Hayden made three appearances with the NHL club. He was held scoreless with seven hits and two blocked shots, but he didn't appear in any of Seattle's last three games and should have an opportunity to see more consistent time on the ice in the minors.

  • Leo Carlsson C | ANA

    Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Two points on special teams Tuesday

    Carlsson scored a shorthanded goal and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 3-2 shootout win over the Panthers.

    Both points came in the second period, with Carlsson's second career shortie opening the scoring on the night. The 20-year-old was the only Ducks shooter to squander his shootout attempt, but it was still another strong performance from the second overall pick in the 2023 Draft. Carlsson's gotten onto the scoresheet in seven of the last eight games, compiling four goals and 11 points over that stretch, including four helpers with the man advantage.

  • Tomas Hertl C | LV

    Golden Knights' Tomas Hertl: Two-point effort in Carolina

    Hertl produced a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Hurricanes.

    After helping to set up Pavel Dorofeyev for Vegas' first goal of the night in the first period, Hertl iced the win late in the third with an empty-netter. The 31-year-old center has delivered four goals and nine points in 10 games, putting him on an early pace for his best campaign since he gave the Sharks 74 points in 77 regular-season games back in 2018-19.

  • Jack Eichel C | LV

    Golden Knights' Jack Eichel: Three more points Tuesday

    Eichel scored two even-strength goals, one the game-winner, and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Hurricanes.

    The 29-year-old continues his ascent to superstardom. Eichel snapped a brief two-game point drought with another eye-popping performance, with both his goals coming in the third period as the Golden Knights roared back from a 3-2 deficit. Eichel leads the NHL with 19 points (eight goals, 11 assists) in 10 games. He also ranks third in the league with 44 shots on net, behind only Nathan MacKinnon (49) and Cutter Gauthier (45).

  • Tyler Seguin C | DAL

    Stars' Tyler Seguin: Nets lone goal Tuesday

    Seguin tallied a power-play goal and put two shots on target in Tuesday's 1-0 shutout win over Washington.

    Seguin's power-play tally in the first minute of the second period stood as the game-winner. The 33-year-old forward has three goals, five points and 15 shots on net across 10 appearances this campaign. He is in a good spot as a streaming option with Matt Duchene (upper body) and Roope Hintz (undisclosed) both considered day-to-day.

  • Jordan Kyrou C | STL

    Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Goals in three straight

    Kyrou tallied a goal and put three shots on net in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Detroit.

    Kyrou's late tally in the third period extended his goal streak to three straight games. Not only has he found his goal-scoring touch, but the 27-year-old winger has a point in each of his last eight contests. With eight points through 10 games, Kyrou is on pace for a career year and will aim to reach the 70-point mark for the fourth time in his past five seasons.

  • Blues' Brayden Schenn: Nets opening goal

    Schenn scored a goal, put two shots on net and served five PIM in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

    Schenn found the back of the net in a hurry, tallying the first goal of the game less than one minute into regulation. The 34-year-old center is up to two goals, five points, 13 shots and 28 hits through 10 appearances this season. With points in each of his last two games, he is on his first point streak of the season. He should continue to see an increased role while Robert Thomas (upper body) is out of the lineup.
