    Blackhawks' Wyatt Kaiser: Tallies in Sunday's loss

    Kaiser scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 7-3 loss to the Penguins.

    Kaiser continues to chip in offense from a bottom-four role on the blue line. He has three goals and an assist over his last eight games. For the season, the 23-year-old blueliner is at four goals, a career-high nine points, 40 shots on net, 38 blocked shots, 25 hits, 18 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 38 appearances.

  • Penguins' Jack St. Ivany: Garners first two assists of season

    St. Ivany notched two assists, four shots on goal, five hits, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Blackhawks.

    St. Ivany has played in five of the Penguins' last six games, and it appears he has supplanted Connor Clifton, at least temporarily, for a third-pairing job. The pair of helpers Sunday accounted for St. Ivany's first points of the year. He's added nine shots on net, 18 hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through five appearances. This was his first career multi-point effort, but his role makes it unlikely the 26-year-old blueliner will have much of an impact in fantasy.

  • Ryan Shea D | EDM

    Penguins' Ryan Shea: Distributes three helpers

    Shea logged three assists, four blocked shots, two hits and a plus-5 rating in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Blackhawks.

    Shea matched his offensive output from the last 14 games combined. He helped out on goals by Anthony Mantha, Bryan Rust and Justin Brazeau in this blowout win. Shea was a top-four regular earlier in the season, but Brett Kulak's arrival via trade from the Oilers has eaten into Shea's minutes. This is still a career year for Shea, who has two goals, 14 helpers, 32 shots on net, 48 blocked shots, 20 hits and a plus-14 rating over 37 appearances.

  • Vince Dunn D | SEA

    Kraken's Vince Dunn: Back in lineup after brief absence

    Dunn (upper body) will suit up at home versus Philadelphia on Sunday, per Joe Pohoryles of Emerald City Spectrum.

    Dunn missed just one game due to his injury. The left-shot blueliner will resume his usual duties on the No. 1 pairing next to Adam Larsson on Sunday. Dunn should also reclaim his role as the quarterback on the top power-play unit, while Ryker Evans is likely to skate with the second group.

  • Senators' Dennis Gilbert: Dropped to minors

    Gilbert was assigned to AHL Belleville on Sunday.

    Gilbert was a healthy scratch in Saturday's 7-5 loss to Toronto. He has six assists in 13 AHL games between Belleville and Lehigh Valley this season.

  • Stars' Nils Lundkvist : Now dealing with lower-body injury

    Lundkvist has been playing through a lower-body injury, Sam Nestler of DLLS Stars reports Sunday.

    Lundkvist is dealing with a whole host of injuries including a lower-body injury that he's playing with as of late. None of these injuries are a concern, though, as he will practice Tuesday ahead of the Stars' next game Wednesday. The 25-year-old has four points (two goals, two assists) in 12 games so far this season.

  • Jets' Josh Morrissey: Day-to-day with injury

    Morrissey (undisclosed) is day-to-day, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports Sunday.

    Morrissey took a hit from Joel Eriksson Ek toward the end of regulation during Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Wild. Jets head coach Scott Arniel was not a fan of the hit, after which the 30-year-old defenseman is considered day-to-day. The Jets are next in action Monday against the Oilers at home. Morrissey has 30 points (six goals, 24 assists) in 36 games on the season.

  • Ethan Bear D | NYI

    Islanders' Ethan Bear: Hits waivers

    Bear (undisclosed) has been placed on waivers by the Islanders, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports Sunday.

    Bear began the year on season-opening injured reserve and must clear waivers in order to remain in the Islanders' organization. The 28-year-old has already had NHL stops with four different organizations, most recently with the Capitals last season. He had four points (one goal, three assists) in 24 regular-season games with Washington.

  • Adam Fox D | NYR

    Rangers' Adam Fox: Considered day-to-day

    Fox (upper body) is day-to-day after being a full participant in Sunday's practice, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.

    While it's still unclear when Fox will be ready to play, he appears to be nearing a return to the lineup. He has missed the last 13 games. Fox has registered three goals, 26 points, 51 shots on net, 41 blocked shots and 15 hits through 27 appearances this season.

  • Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Pockets helper in return

    Sandin logged an assist, four blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Devils.

    Sandin missed one game due to an upper-body injury, but the holiday break appears to have helped him avoid a longer absence. He's earned four assists over his last seven contests. For the season, the defenseman is at 11 points, 37 shots on net, 45 hits, 59 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating across 32 appearances in a bottom-four role.
