Fehervary scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Maple Leafs.

It was a rare big game on offense for Fehervary, who helped out on a Dylan Strome goal in the first period before scoring one of his own in the second. Fehervary hadn't scored since Feb. 2 versus the Islanders, and he had just three helpers over 21 contests in between tallies. The defenseman is up to five goals and 25 points over 78 appearances, exactly matching his offensive production from 81 regular-season outings last year. He's added 71 shots on net, 106 hits, 174 blocked shots, 35 PIM and a plus-14 rating while filling a shutdown role in the Capitals' top four.

Fox scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Sabres.

Fox set up Alexis Lafreniere on the Rangers' first goal and then put them ahead 3-2 in the second period with a tally of his own. During an eight-game point streak, Fox has amassed four goals and 11 assists, with nine of those 15 points coming on the power play. He's up to nine goals, 52 points (24 on the power play), 84 shots on net, 72 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 52 appearances. Fox continues to operate as the Rangers' top blueliner and has been producing as such when healthy.

Carlo (lower body) won't be in the lineup Thursday versus the Islanders, Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun reports.

Carlo was hurt Wednesday against the Capitals. The Maple Leafs will call up William Villeneuve to play Thursday in Carlo's absence. Carlo has just seven assists over 55 outings this season.

Villeneuve will be recalled from AHL Toronto prior to Thursday's game versus the Islanders, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

It's expected Villeneuve will make his NHL debut Thursday. He'll be on the NHL roster again just a day after his most recent demotion because Brandon Carlo (lower body) sustained an injury versus the Capitals on Wednesday.

Jiricek scored a goal and added three assists in OHL Brantford's 8-1 win over North Bay in Game 1 on Wednesday.

Jiricek has had two big games in the OHL postseason -- a five-point contest and Wednesday's four-point performance. He's gone scoreless in the Bulldogs' other three playoff games. Jiricek will need to improve his consistency, but he should have plenty of time to keep helping Brantford get offense from the blue line.

Carlo (lower body) won't finish Wednesday's game versus the Capitals.

Carlo was ruled out for the rest of the game at the start of the third period. The 29-year-old defenseman will be questionable to play Thursday versus the Islanders. If he can't go, look for Troy Stecher to draw back into the lineup.

Jansson was summoned from AHL Charlotte on Wednesday, per the AHL transactions page.

Jansson has three goals and 10 points in 29 outings with Charlotte in 2025-26. He hasn't made his NHL debut, but he might get a shot during this stint. Florida is missing defensemen Uvis Balinskis (foot), Aaron Ekblad (finger), Dmitry Kulikov (finger) and Niko Mikkola (knee).

Hovorka was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Wednesday.

A day after being sent down by the Panthers, Hovorka will rejoin the NHL club with a week remaining in the regular season. Across three appearances with Florida this year, Hovorka has been held without a point while recording three hits and a blocked shot.

Legault was recalled from AHL Chicago on Wednesday.

Legault has three goals, seven points and 48 PIM in 22 appearances with AHL Chicago in 2025-26. He also has a goal, two points and 10 PIM in eight outings with Carolina this campaign.

Parekh scored a power-play goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Stars.

Parekh has three goals this season, all within the last seven games. The 20-year-old continues to depend on the power play for his offense, as all but one of his seven points have come on the man advantage. He's added 36 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 32 appearances in his rookie year.
