    Avalanche's Josh Manson: Good to go Sunday

    Manson (upper body) will play in Game 1 against the Kings on Sunday, according to Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette.

    Following a three-game absence, Manson will return to the lineup in a third-pairing role. During the 2025-26 regular season, he accounted for five goals, 31 points, 128 shots on net, 99 blocked shots, 174 hits and 91 PIM in 79 appearances.

  • Stars' Miro Heiskanen: Pockets power-play assist

    Heiskanen registered a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-1 loss to the Wild in Game 1.

    Heiskanen missed the last three games of the regular season due to a lower-body injury. He ended the campaign at 63 points, including 28 on the power play, over 77 appearances. Heiskanen will be tasked with heavy minutes throughout the playoffs. In previous postseason runs, Heiskanen has amassed 17 goals and 48 helpers across 93 outings. This is the seventh time in his eight NHL campaigns he's helped the Stars make the playoffs.

  • Senators' Carter Yakemchuk: Added as part of Black Aces

    Yakemchuk has been added to the active roster by the Senators, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports Sunday.

    Following Saturday's 2-0 defeat in Game 1 against the Hurricanes, the Senators have added their crop of Black Aces to the roster with AHL Belleville's season officially in the books. Alongside Yakemchuk, Ottawa also added Graeme Clarke, Arthur Kaliyev, Xavier Bourgault, Oskar Pettersson and Tyler Boucher to the roster.

  • Lightning's Steve Santini: Assigned to AHL

    Santini was loaned to AHL Syracuse on Sunday.

    Santini had one assist, four shots on net, seven blocked shots and nine hits in 12 NHL appearances during the 2025-26 regular season. He appears poised to play for the Crunch in the Calder Cup Playoffs.

  • Mammoth's Scott Perunovich: Picks up three assists for Tucson

    Perunovich recorded three assists in AHL Tucson's 5-4 win over Henderson on Saturday.

    Perunovich has displayed quality scoring with nine goals and 40 helpers over 64 outings this season. That includes two goals and 11 assists over his last 11 contests. The 27-year-old's scoring ability hasn't translated to the NHL, and at this point, it's not clear when he might get another chance at hockey's highest level.

  • Flyers' Jamie Drysdale: Opens scoring in Game 1

    Drysdale scored a goal, added two PIM and blocked two shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Penguins in Game 1.

    Drysdale ended the regular season on an 11-game goal drought, but he didn't have to wait long to find the twine in the playoffs. The defenseman matched his career high of 32 points in 78 regular-season outings this year. Saturday marked his playoff debut, and he'll be counted on for top-four minutes and power-play time as the Flyers look to make an unexpected run.

  • Flyers' Travis Sanheim: Finds twine Saturday

    Sanheim scored a goal, added four PIM and logged three hits in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Penguins in Game 1.

    Sanheim put the Flyers ahead 2-1 at the midway mark of the third period. The 30-year-old defenseman had 37 points in 81 regular-season contests, the second-highest scoring campaign of his NHL career. Sanheim added 95 shots on net, 152 blocked shots, 46 hits and a plus-12 rating. Before this postseason, he produced eight points over 20 outings across two prior playoff runs. He'll see top-four minutes for the Flyers and could feature in all situations, depending on how power-play minutes get distributed.

  • Kraken's Gustav Olofsson: Gathers trio of helpers

    Olofsson notched three assists in AHL Coachella Valley's 6-4 win over San Diego on Saturday.

    Olofsson has 32 points over 48 appearances this season, his best year in the AHL to date. That helped him earn an NHL deal in March, though he didn't get a call-up to Seattle after signing. He'll likely be in the market for another two-way contract at best this offseason.

  • Penguins' Owen Pickering: Contributes three points

    Pickering scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton's 8-0 win over Rochester on Saturday.

    Pickering has earned five points over his last four outings, following a seven-game point drought. The defenseman is at seven goals, 28 points and a plus-16 rating over 68 appearances this season. Pickering has done his part to grow his offense in his second full professional campaign.
