NHL Player News

St. Ivany (lower body) was recalled from his conditioning loan with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Sunday.

St. Ivany generated one goal and four assists in five games during his conditioning assignment. Despite his call-up, he hasn't been added to Pittsburgh's active roster yet and remains on the injured non-roster list for now.

Brunicke was recalled from his conditioning loan with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Sunday.

Brunicke had three assists in five outings during his stint with Pittsburgh's top minor-league affiliate. He has one goal, eight shots on net, 13 blocked shots and four hits in nine NHL appearances this season. Brunicke will be an option for Sunday's game against Dallas, but it's unclear if he will be in the lineup.

Miller notched an assist, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Predators.

Miller was back in the lineup with 20:04 of ice time after missing a game due to an illness. The 25-year-old has four assists over his last six outings as he continues to hold down a top-four role for the Hurricanes. On the year, he's produced 12 points, 42 shots on net, 29 hits, 20 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 20 contests. If he can sustain that pace on offense, he's got plenty of fantasy value as an all-around contributor.

Peeke scored an empty-net goal and blocked four shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Devils.

Peeke went a month between points, posting a minus-4 rating with 20 hits and 24 blocked shots over his previous 13 games. The 27-year-old has never put up big scoring numbers, but he plays with enough grit to hold onto a top-four role while the Bruins are without Charlie McAvoy (face) and Henri Jokiharju (undisclosed). For the season, Peeke has five points, 33 shots on net, 42 hits, 67 blocks and a minus-6 rating through 30 appearances.

Severson scored a power-play goal and went minus-2 in Saturday's 7-6 overtime loss to the Panthers.

Severson scored for the first time since Oct. 18 versus the Lightning. In the 22 contests between goals, he chipped in six assists. The 31-year-old has done enough to be a steady part of the Blue Jackets' top four and second power-play unit throughout the season. He's at nine points, 32 shots on net, 27 hits, 29 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 28 appearances. Severson will push to reach the 30-point mark for the first time in his Columbus tenure.

Jones scored a power-play goal on five shots, added an assist, logged two hits and went plus-3 in Saturday's 7-6 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.

Jones ended his four-game point drought with the effort. The 31-year-old's pair of points came as part of the Panthers' three-goal rally over a span of five minutes in the second period. The defenseman is up to four goals, 11 helpers, 50 shots on net, 28 hits, 31 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 27 appearances. Jones continues to see significant usage in the top four and on the first power-play unit.

Santini has been re-assigned to AHL Syracuse, the Lightning announced Sunday.

Santini got into seven games in the few weeks he was at the NHL level, picking up an assist while averaging 12:01 of ice time per night. The 30-year-old was a healthy scratch the last two games, though. In the AHL with Syracuse, he has four assists in 13 games.

Lundkvist was activated off of long-term injured reserve by the Stars on Sunday.

Reinforcements are coming for the Stars, who also activated Matt Duchene (upper body) from LTIR. Lundkvist has been out of the lineup with a lower-body injury since early October, playing in only four games. In those contests, he recorded three points (one goal, two assists). The 25-year-old will provide a needed boost to the Dallas defense corps, which is still without Thomas Harley (lower body) and Lian Bichsel (lower body). Lundkvist is expected to play Sunday against the Penguins.

Carlson (upper body) will be a game-time decision against Columbus on Sunday, according to Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.

Carlson was on the ice with the team's expected scratches Sunday morning, which may not bode well for his availability, but it doesn't necessarily rule out a return to the lineup. He has amassed six goals, 23 points, 59 shots on net and 38 blocked shots through 26 appearances this season. If Carlson plays following a two-game absence, Declan Chisholm will probably be a healthy scratch versus the Blue Jackets on Sunday.

Provorov pocketed two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 7-6 overtime loss to the Panthers.

The veteran blueliner had a hand in the Blue Jackets' first two tallies in the wild afternoon contest. It was Provorov's first multi-point performance of the season, but he's gotten onto the scoresheet in three straight games, giving him four goals and 11 points in 28 games with 56 shots on net, 45 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating to begin 2025-26.
