NHL Player News

Miner was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Saturday.

Miner made a relief appearance Friday, stopping 12 of 13 shots en route to a 5-2 loss to Washington. Alexandar Georgiev (upper body) is day-to-day, which is why Miner was with the NHL club. Colorado doesn't play again until Monday's road game against Philadelphia, so Miner might be recalled if Georgiev is unavailable for that match.

Daccord is set to start in Saturday's home game against the Islanders, per Ethan Sears of the New York Post.

Daccord has won his past three starts while stopping 77 of 83 shots (.928 save percentage). That gives him a 7-3-1 record, 2.55 GAA and .918 save percentage across 11 appearances in 2024-25. The Islanders rank 25th offensively with 2.65 goals per game this season.

Soderblom is expected to start on the road against Vancouver on Saturday, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

Soderblom has a 1-2-1 record, 2.27 GAA and .933 save percentage in four appearances this season. While those are great numbers, he remains firmly behind Petr Mrazek, who has logged 13 outings in 2024-25, on the depth chart. The Canucks have an 8-4-3 record and rank 16th offensively with 3.13 goals per game.

Silovs will patrol the home crease Saturday against Chicago, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.

Silovs hasn't earned a win through four appearances this season while stopping 63 of 78 shots. Chicago ranks 30th in the league with 2.41 goals per game in 2024-25. Kevin Lankinen will get a break after making six straight starts, but he could play in the second half of Vancouver's back-to-back when Nashville visits Sunday.

Martin is expected to patrol the home crease Saturday against Ottawa, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

Martin will make his second NHL start in 2024-25 because Frederik Andersen (lower body) and Pyotr Kochetkov (undisclosed) are both unavailable. The 29-year-old Martin has stopped 25 of 31 shots in two appearances with the Hurricanes this season, including a relief outing against Utah on Wednesday after Kochetkov sustained an injury. Ottawa sits 11th in the league this campaign with 3.44 goals per game.

Oettinger will guard the road net Saturday in Minnesota, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

Oettinger's been sharp of late, going 3-1-0 with a .908 save percentage over his last four starts. However, he'll have a tough matchup Saturday against the Wild, who are averaging 3.50 goals per game.

Hellebuyck will patrol the road crease in Florida on Saturday, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.

Hellebuyck has won six straight games, boosting his record to 12-1-0 with an eye-popping 1.92 GAA and a .934 save percentage. He is the early favorite to win the Vezina Trophy. He will have a tough matchup against the defending Stanley Cup champion Panthers, who are 11-5-1 to start the season.

Korpisalo will protect the home net Saturday versus the Blues, per Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Korpisalo has won his last two outings, stopping 54 of 57 shots and earning a shutout. He has a 3-2-0 record with a 2.72 GAA and a .900 save percentage through six appearances this season. St. Louis ranks 27th in the league with 2.53 goals per game in 2024-25.

Vejmelka stopped 25 of 28 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights. The fourth goal was an empty-netter with 29 seconds left in the third period.

Vejmelka couldn't repeat the dominant display he delivered in the 4-1 win over the Hurricanes on Wednesday when he recorded a career-high 49 saves. He received a defeat in Friday's contest despite keeping a shutout until the late stages of the second period. Even though Vejmelka has lost in four of his six appearances this season, his overall numbers have turned out to be quite good for a backup netminder, owning a 2.49 GAA and a .921 save percentage.

Hill stopped 32 of 34 shots in Friday's 4-2 win over Utah.

Hill allowed an even-strength goal in the first period and a power-play tally in the second, but he settled down afterward and secured his eighth win of the campaign across 12 outings. The 28-year-old netminder has gone 8-3-1 with a 3.16 GAA and an .886 save percentage this season, but he owns a 4-1-1 record across six outings in November.
