Scheifele scored an empty-net goal on three shots, dished two assists, added five PIM and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.

Scheifele had a Gordie Howe hat trick in this contest. He assisted on the Jets' first two goals, and he fought Brett Howden late in the second period after Howden's hit on Kyle Connor. Scheifele completed his effort with the empty-netter. The center snapped a three-game skid and earned his fifth multi-point effort of March in the process. He's up to 32 goals, 54 assists, 153 shots on net, 39 blocked shots, 29 hits, 31 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 71 appearances. Scheifele is now one point shy of matching his career-high total of 87 from the 2024-25 regular season.

Guentzel scored a goal and added an assist in a 6-3 win over the Wild on Tuesday.

The goal was Guentzel's 300th in the NHL, and it was in the dirty area of the ice -- he was on his knees below the right circle, and he hammered in his own rebound. Guentzel has 74 points, including 32 goals, in 70 games this season and 645 points in 670 games in his career. He remains on pace to set a new career mark in points; his current mark is 84 points (40 goals, 44 assists) with Pittsburgh in 2021-22.

Point scored a goal Tuesday in a 6-3 win over the Wild.

Point got Tampa's first goal on the power play early in the second period. It was his first goal in eight games (five assists). However, he's been streaking since early December. Point has points in 24 of his last 31 games (35 points, including 14 goals).

Lindholm scored a goal Tuesday in a 4-2 loss to Toronto.

Lindholm put the Bruins up 1-0 in the first on a 2-on-1 break; he wired a wrist shot from the right circle that went in off the far post. Lindholm has a modest two-game goal streak (two goals, one assist) with six shots. He's up to 14 goals and 43 points in 58 appearances in 2025-26. His 60-point pace could help you in your postseason run. That's his best output since his Calgary days.

Harkins (upper body) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Canucks.

Harkins took just three shifts in this contest prior to his injury. If he can't play Thursday versus the Flames, Frank Vatrano or Ross Johnston will replace him in the lineup.

Domi scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Bruins.

It pushed the Leafs up 2-1 in the last two minutes of the second frame. It was Domi's second goal and third point since the end of January (17 games). He hasn't been able to capitalize on an enhanced role with Auston Matthews (knee) out. Domi has 33 points (11 goals, 22 assists; 105 shots) and a minus-21 rating in 69 games this season.

Hayton sustained an upper-body injury in Tuesday's game versus the Oilers and is questionable to return to the contest.

Hayton ran into a teammate during the first period. The 25-year-old forward's questionable status indicates that his evaluation isn't complete yet. If he can't return to Tuesday's game, his next chance to play is Thursday versus the Capitals.

Finnie is in concussion protocol after taking a heavy hit in Tuesday's game versus the Senators, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Finnie missed the last six minutes of the third period. The 20-year-old winger will be out until he is clear of concussion symptoms. The Red Wings have a back-to-back coming up, as they visit the Sabres on Friday before hosting the Flyers on Saturday. Sheldon Dries would likely draw into the lineup if Finnie misses time.

Zary (upper body) won't play Tuesday versus the Kings, Ryan Pike of Flames Nation reports.

Zary will miss his second straight game after he got hurt Friday versus the Panthers. The 24-year-old was labeled day-to-day over the weekend, so his absence might not linger too long. That said, the Flames have no need to rush him back.

Larkin (leg) is expected to play against Ottawa on Tuesday, according to Ansar Khan of MLive.com.

Following a seven-game absence, Larkin will return to the top line and first power-play unit versus the Senators on Tuesday. He has compiled 28 goals, 55 points and 190 shots on net over 63 games this season.
