Chabot has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's road game against the Rangers due to a right arm injury.

Chabot was cross-checked by J.T. Miller at the end of the first period. Lassi Thomson (lower body) was also injured Monday, leaving the Senators with four defensemen for the rest of this game against the Rangers. The Senators play in the second half of a back-to-back Tuesday in Detroit, so Chabot should be considered questionable, at best, for that matchup at this time.

Boqvist logged an assist in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Blue Jackets.

Boqvist got into the lineup for Ryan Pulock (lower body) in this game. It was just the second appearance for Boqvist in the Islanders' last 19 contests, but he was able to make it count with an assist to end his 14-game point drought. The defenseman has just two helpers all season to go with eight shots on net, 11 hits, 19 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 22 appearances. Boqvist will likely return to the press box once Pulock can get back in the lineup.

Chatfield scored a goal in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Penguins.

This was just the second goal of the season for Chatfield. He snapped an eight-game point drought with the tally. The 29-year-old defenseman fills a shutdown role in the Hurricanes' top four, which explains his limited offense. For the season, he's at 16 points, 87 shots on net, 55 blocked shots, 34 hits and a plus-15 rating over 63 appearances, production roughly in line with what he's done over the last couple of years.

Sandin-Pellikka was assigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Monday.

Sandin-Pellikka has been a healthy scratch for seven straight games, and he will probably get into a game or two at the AHL level. However, it's unclear if he will return to the NHL immediately afterward. He has accounted for six goals, 19 points, 62 shots on net and 51 blocked shots across 63 appearances with the Red Wings this season.

Mikkola (knee) is expected to miss 4-6 weeks, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports Monday.

According to the NHL media site, Mikkola has been moved to injured reserve. He sustained the injury in Friday's 4-1 loss to Calgary, and he is poised to miss the remainder of the 2025-26 regular season. Mikkola provided three goals, 11 points, 68 shots on net, 81 blocked shots and 116 hits over 68 appearances this campaign.

Balinskis (foot) has a fracture and is slated to miss 4-6 weeks, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports Monday.

Balinskis has been sidelined for a week and a half due to his lower-body injury, and it's possible that he'll be shut down for the remainder of the season after being diagnosed with a fracture. Across 54 appearances for the Panthers this year, he's recorded five goals, 10 assists, 71 hits, 42 blocked shots and 30 PIM while averaging 16:22 of ice time.

McNabb scored a goal on two shots, recorded two blocked shots and dished out three hits in Sunday's 3-2 win over Dallas.

McNabb put the Golden Knights on the board just 4:01 into regulation. While the 35-year-old blueliner isn't known as a goal scorer, he has two tallies over his last six games and sits just one goal shy of tying his career high of five goals. Overall, he has eight points, 65 shots on net, 97 hits and 123 blocked shots across 52 contests this season. While his offensive numbers don't jump off the page, McNabb remains a strong option in category-based leagues and banger formats with his elite 2.37 blocks per game, which ranks third in the NHL.

Gudas is eligible to play in Tuesday's matchup against Vancouver after serving his five-game suspension.

Gudas received the ban for kneeing Toronto's Auston Matthews, who sustained a season-ending knee injury and a quadriceps contusion, in a 6-4 loss to the Maple Leafs on March 12. The 35-year-old Gudas has two goals, 13 points, 60 shots on net, 83 blocked shots, 156 hits and 45 PIM across 52 appearances this season.

McDonagh scored a goal in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Flames.

McDonagh opened the scoring 7:25 into the game. He's earned three points over 11 outings in March. McDonagh isn't adding much offense, but he remains a reliable shutdown blueliner. He has six goals, eight assists, 32 shots on net, 57 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating over 36 appearances this season.

Raddysh scored a goal on five shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Flames.

Raddysh had three points over four contests during the Lightning's road trip out west. The defenseman is up to 19 goals, 61 points, 175 shots on net, 61 hits, 59 blocked shots and a plus-23 rating over 62 appearances this season. Raddysh continues to impress in a top-pairing role and has become the team's most reliable blueliner on offense after a down year for Victor Hedman (illness).
