Guhle notched an assist, four shots on goal and four PIM in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Rangers.

Guhle has a helper in each of the last two games and four points over his last seven outings. His assist came up clutch Sunday, as he fed Patrik Laine on the game-winning goal 3:20 into overtime. Guhle is up to 12 points, 52 shots on net, 61 hits, 95 blocked shots, 27 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 40 appearances in a top-four role this season.

Hutson registered an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Rangers.

Hutson helped out on Juraj Slafkovsky's goal in the third period, which tied the game at 4-4. The assist extended Hutson's point streak to eight games (one goal, 11 assists). The 20-year-old defenseman has yet to hit the rookie wall, putting up 38 points, 52 shots on net, 62 blocked shots, 26 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 46 appearances in a top-pairing role.

Hughes generated an even-strength assist in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Senators.

Hughes logged the secondary assist on New Jersey's lone goal scored by Tomas Tatar in this contest. Hughes has gone cold in January -- he has just two assists and a minus-5 rating through nine appearances. The left-shot defenseman is manning the No. 2 power-play unit, but he's registered just two points with man advantage since Nov. 30. Overall, Hughes has provided three goals and 19 points through 40 appearances in 2024-25.

Zub scored a goal on his only shot in Sunday's 2-1 win over New Jersey.

Zub scored the game-winning goal Sunday, beating Jacob Markstrom with a wrist shot from the point on the blocker side early in the third period. Zub added one hit, five blocked shots and a plus-1 rating in 21:48 of ice time. The right-shot blueliner has netted two goals over his last four outings, but he hasn't registered a helper since Nov. 12. Zub has contributed two goals and four points through 21 appearances this campaign, which was interrupted by a fractured foot that sidelined him for 16 games from Nov. 25 to Dec. 29.

Liljegren (illness) participated in Sunday's practice, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.

Liljegren should be available for Monday's game against Boston after sitting out Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Islanders. Marc-Edouard Vlasic played through an illness in Saturday's defeat and skipped Sunday's practice. Still, Vlasic could play versus the Bruins on Monday. Henry Thrun might be a healthy scratch if Liljegren and Vlasic are in Monday's lineup.

Theodore logged two assists and three shots on goal in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blackhawks.

Theodore helped out on both of Tomas Hertl's second-period tallies, the latter of which came on the power play. With a goal and five assists over his last four contests, Theodore continues to provide reliable offense. The 29-year-old blueliner has 39 points (16 on the power play), 89 shots on net, 56 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 45 outings overall.

Brisebois was loaned to AHL Abbotsford on Sunday.

Brisebois was a healthy scratch in the last three games. He hasn't earned a point in three NHL appearances this season while posting two shots on goal, four blocked shots and two hits. If Noah Juulsen (undisclosed) remains unavailable, Vancouver could recall Brisebois for defensive depth ahead of Tuesday's matchup versus the Sabres.

Sergachev (upper body) is considered a game-time decision for Monday's matchup with Winnipeg, though it's unlikely he plays, Belle Fraser of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

It appears that Sergachev will likely miss a second game with an upper-body injury, though official confirmation on his status won't come until closer to game time. The 26-year-old blueliner has eight goals and 30 points through his first 44 games with Utah. Nick DeSimone will likely remain in the lineup if Sergachev sits.

Pelech notched an assist, two hits and three blocked shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Sharks.

Pelech ended a five-game slump with the helper on a Brock Nelson tally in the second period. For the season, Pelech has eight assists, 52 shots on net, 39 hits and 39 blocked shots through 25 contests. The 30-year-old remains in a top-four role on defense, but he's more of a shutdown player than a scorer.

Miller produced an assist in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Flames.

Miller missed the previous five games due to a fractured larynx suffered versus the Red Wings on Jan. 4. The 32-year-old returned to a third-pairing role, but his spot in the lineup is likely up for grabs. Ville Heinola was the scratch on defense Saturday, and Haydn Fleury (lower body) will also be in the mix for playing time once he's activated from injured reserve. Miller has nine points, 40 shots on net, 46 hits, 29 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a plus-9 rating over 35 appearances this season, but he may be heading toward a part-time role once the Jets are at full strength.
