Colton Parayko D | STL
Blues' Colton Parayko: Questionable vs. Utah
Parayko (illness) is considered questionable for Sunday's game against Utah, according to Lou Korac of The Hockey News.
Parayko missed Friday's 5-0 loss to Colorado due to the illness. He has 11 goals, 28 points, 80 hits and 122 blocks in 51 appearances in 2024-25. If Parayko is able to draw back into the lineup Sunday, then Matt Kessel will probably be a healthy scratch.

Ryan Lindgren D | SEA
Rangers' Ryan Lindgren: Puts up helper in loss
Lindgren notched an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Bruins.
Lindgren has four helpers over his last eight contests. He continues to be steady on the blue line for both offense and defense, though he is minus-3 over the last two games. The 26-year-old blueliner is at 13 points, 32 shots on net, 52 hits, 87 blocked shots, 30 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 46 appearances this season.

Andrew Peeke D | BOS
Bruins' Andrew Peeke: Adds assist Saturday
Peeke provided an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rangers.
Peeke's role hasn't really shrunk since Charlie McAvoy returned from a seven-game absence. The 26-year-old Peeke has topped 20 minutes of ice time in eight of his last nine outings, earning five points with a plus-3 rating in that span. The defenseman is at 13 points, 45 shots on net, 51 hits, 78 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 48 appearances. Offense may be tough for him to sustain in a third-pairing role, but his spot in the lineup looks safe.

Brandon Carlo D | TOR
Bruins' Brandon Carlo: Provides helper Saturday
Carlo notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rangers.
Carlo has been back for two games after sitting out one contest due to an illness Tuesday versus the Sabres. The 28-year-old has been moderately productive with three helpers over his last six appearances, but he typically doesn't produce offense at that level. For the season, he has eight points, 56 shots on net, 55 hits and 104 blocked shots across 53 outings.

Charlie McAvoy D | BOS
Bruins' Charlie McAvoy: Opens scoring on power play
McAvoy scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rangers.
This was McAvoy's second game back after he missed seven contests due to an upper-body injury. The 27-year-old defenseman had the opening tally Saturday, scoring at 10:21 of the first period for a short-lived lead, though the Bruins would rebound over the balance of the game. McAvoy is now at six goals, 21 points, 92 shots on net, 86 hits, 78 blocked shots and 46 PIM through 47 appearances this season. He's on pace for his lowest point total in four years, but he remains in a top-pairing role.

Connor Clifton D | PIT
Sabres' Connor Clifton: Won't play Sunday
Clifton (illness) won't be in the lineup for Sunday's game against New Jersey, according to Heather Engel of NHL.com.
Clifton will miss his third straight game due to an illness after being a healthy scratch versus Edmonton on Jan. 25. However, he could be an option for Tuesday's matchup versus Columbus after participating in Saturday's practice. The 29-year-old defender has produced eight assists, 36 shots on goal, 69 blocked shots and 134 hits through 46 appearances this season. Once healthy, Clifton could replace Jacob Bryson in the lineup.
