Andrae notched an assist and went plus-2 in Monday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

Andrae is warming up with three helpers over his last four games while seeing time on the Flyers' second pairing. The 23-year-old defenseman looks to have a fair amount of job security for now after being a healthy scratch at times earlier in the season. He's up to 10 points, 23 shots on net, 25 hits, 21 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-9 rating over 25 appearances, which is already career-best production on offense.

Coghlan was recalled from AHL Henderson on Tuesday.

Coghlan has notched five goals and 11 points in 23 minor-league outings this season. He will be an option for Tuesday against San Jose, but he could be a healthy scratch for the contest.

Aspirot (upper body) might be ready to play following the Christmas break, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI reports Tuesday.

Aspirot won't be ready to face the Habs on Tuesday, but it seems he could be in action sooner rather than later. Prior to his five-game stint on the shelf, the 26-year-old blueliner managed just one point in 13 contests, so few fantasy managers figure to be impacted by his potential return.

Bogosian (lower body) will be activated from injured reserve ahead of his return to the lineup against Nashville on Tuesday, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

Following a four-game absence, Bogosian will join Jake Middleton on the team's third pairing in Tuesday's contest. The 35-year-old Bogosian has one goal, one assist, 15 shots on net, 16 blocked shots and 14 hits across 17 appearances this season.

Kleven (lower body) won't be in the lineup against Buffalo on Tuesday, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

Kleven will miss his second straight game. He has registered five assists, 39 shots on goal, 48 blocked shots and 41 hits through 32 appearances this season. The Senators hope to get him back for Saturday's game against the Maple Leafs or Monday's matchup versus the Blue Jackets.

Raddysh scored the game-winning goal on the power play and added two assists in Monday's 4-1 win over the Blues.

The 29-year-old blueliner reached 100 regular-season points in his career in the process, as he continues surging toward a career-best campaign. Since Victor Hedman (elbow) was placed back on IR, Raddysh has racked up three goals and seven points in six games, and on the season, he's already set a new personal best with eight goals, and he's tied his career high with nine power-play points (four goals, five helpers).

Faulk scored his 10th goal of the season in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Lightning.

The veteran blueliner spoiled Andrei Vasilevskiy's shutout bid early in the second period with a blast from the point, but it was the only spark of offense the Blues could muster. Faulk has found the back of the net in three of the last four games and gotten onto the scoresheet in seven of the last nine. On the season, he's compiled 20 points in 38 contests with 75 blocked shots, 73 shots on net, 31 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-1 rating.

Dunn (undisclosed) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game in Anaheim.

Dunn took a big hit from Ross Johnston in the third period and subsequently went to the locker room. The 29-year-old Dunn logged two blocked shots, one shot on net and a minus-1 rating in 15:14 of ice time prior to exiting. The left-shot blueliner should be considered questionable for the second half of a back-to-back Tuesday in Los Angeles.

Slavin (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday.

Carolina recalled Joel Nystrom from AHL Chicago in a corresponding move. Slavin is week-to-week, and it's unclear when he will be available to return to the lineup. He hasn't earned a point in five appearances this season while providing four shots on goal and eight blocked shots.

Nystrom was recalled from AHL Chicago on Monday.

Nystrom was sent to the AHL on Dec. 14, but he'll rejoin the NHL club just before the holiday break after Jaccob Slavin (upper body) was placed on injured reserve. Nystrom has made 24 appearances for the Hurricanes this year, racking up five assists, 14 blocked shots, six hits and four PIM while averaging 15:56 of ice time.
