Anderson was put on injured reserve Thursday, per the NHL media site.

Hutson scored a goal, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Jets.

Hutson has a goal and four assists during his four-game point streak. The 21-year-old defenseman reached the 10-goal mark for the season with this tally. He's added 48 assists, 16 power-play points, 91 shots on net, 90 blocked shots, 24 PIM and a plus-22 rating over 57 appearances. Hutson has quickly established himself as one of the top fantasy blueliners in the league in his two NHL seasons.

Provorov scored a goal and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

Provorov ended his 18-game goal drought with a first-period tally. The 29-year-old defenseman earned five assists with a plus-9 rating, 38 shots on net and 31 blocked shots in that span. He's up to a total of six goals, 20 points, 111 shots, 94 blocks, 26 PIM, 23 hits and a plus-15 rating over 56 appearances. Provorov's steady defense keeps him in a top-four role, giving him appeal in deeper fantasy formats.

Hovorka was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Thursday, per the NHL media site.

Hovorka could make his NHL debut Thursday in Tampa Bay, though it's more likely that he will be a healthy scratch as the Panthers' seventh blueliner. The defenseman had two goals and eight assists in 30 AHL appearances before being called up. The Panthers placed Tobias Bjornfot (undisclosed) on injured reserve in a corresponding move.

Bjornfot (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, per the NHL media site.

Bjornfot had already been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Lightning after he sustained an injury against the Bruins on Wednesday. However, his move to injured reserve won't impact his return timetable due to the Olympic break, and the transaction allows the Panthers to recall Mikulas Hovorka to provide additional depth against Tampa Bay.

Phillips was loaned to AHL Manitoba on Thursday.

Phillips spent the past week and a half with the Jets, but he didn't appear in any games during his time with the NHL club. He'll be sent to the minors ahead of the Olympic break and should see playing time with Manitoba during the league's layoff.

Salomonsson was reassigned to AHL Manitoba on Thursday.

Salomonsson has played 13 games with the Jets in his rookie season and has failed to pick up a point. The blueliner has 14 hits and 13 blocked shots while averaging 16:58 of ice time. Salomonsson had a goal and seven assists in 25 AHL games before his recall.

Rinzel was reassigned to AHL Rockford on Thursday.

Rinzel potted a goal in his recent three-game stint with Chicago, averaging 22:52 of ice time. Overall, the 21-year-old has two goals, seven assists, 28 hits and 36 blocked shots over 31 NHL appearances this season. Rinzel should be recalled when the NHL returns to action after the Olympic break.

Jiricek was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Thursday.

Jiricek spent the past several weeks with the NHL club, and he recorded no points, five blocked shots, three hits and two PIM while averaging 10:38 of ice time over seven appearances during that time. He'll be sent to the minors ahead of the Olympic break, which should allow him to see playing time in Iowa during the league's layoff.

Dobson delivered two assists in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Jets.
