    Wild's Danila Yurov: Reaches 10-goal mark

    Yurov scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.

    Yurov has two goals over his last three games and is up to 10 tallies this season. The 22-year-old rookie is playing in a middle-six role currently, so he won't be a big producer on offense as long as the Wild's forward group stays mostly healthy. Yurov has a total of 25 points with 68 shots on net, 43 hits, 35 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 60 outings.

    Wild's Matt Boldy: Strikes on power play again

    Boldy scored a power-play goal on four shots, added two PIM, logged two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.

    Boldy has scored in three straight games, and his last two goals have come on the power play. The 24-year-old winger is up to a total of 38 goals this season, including 11 on the power play and four shorthanded tallies. He's earned a career year already with 75 points, and he's matched his career high of 26 power-play points from the 2022-23 regular season. A 90-point campaign is still within the range of outcomes for Boldy, who has taken a star turn this year.

  • Rangers' Jaroslav Chmelar: Pots goal Saturday

    Chmelar scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Wild.

    Chmelar is getting an extended look on the fourth line, and he's scored twice over six games since the start of March. The 22-year-old won't have a lot of upside in that spot, but he's done enough to keep his place in the lineup. Chmelar has two goals, nine shots on net, 19 hits, eight blocked shots and seven PIM over his first 12 NHL outings.

  • Rangers' Vincent Trocheck: Puts away insurance goal

    Trocheck scored a goal on three shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Wild.

    Trocheck ended an eight-game goal drought with this effort. He still had nine assists in that span. The 32-year-old center is up to 13 goals, 46 points, 91 shots on net, 150 hits, 48 PIM, 42 blocked shots and 48 PIM over 51 appearances. Trocheck remains a bright spot for the Rangers while filling a top-six role.

  • Noah Laba C | NYR

    Rangers' Noah Laba: Stays hot with power-play goal

    Laba scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Wild.

    Laba typically doesn't get much power-play time, but he was able to cash in while on the ice near the end of a Minnesota penalty. The 22-year-old's game has taken off lately with three goals and two assists over his last five outings. For the season, the rookie center has nine goals, 21 points (five on the power play), 60 shots on net, 94 hits, 40 blocked shots and 22 PIM over 63 appearances in a middle-six role.

  • Oilers' Ryan Nugent-Hopkins: Game-time decision Sunday

    Nugent-Hopkins (personal) will be a game-time decision Sunday against the Predators, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Nugent-Hopkins missed Friday's game against the Blues, and his status for Sunday is up in the air after he didn't participate in line rushes during the morning skate. The 32-year-old has enjoyed another solid season, registering 50 points (17 goals, 33 assists) in 57 games. Matt Savoie has seen a big bump in usage during Nugent-Hopkins' absence, playing on the top line with Connor McDavid and Zach Hyman.

  • Oilers' Connor Ingram: In goal Sunday

    Ingram will protect the home net against Nashville on Sunday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Ingram is coming off a 22-save effort in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to St. Louis. He has a 9-6-2 record this campaign with one shutout, a 2.79 GAA and an .891 save percentage through 20 appearances. Nashville ranks 20th in the league with 2.94 goals per game this season.

  • Dan Vladar G | PHI

    Flyers' Dan Vladar: Makes 27 saves in SO loss

    Vladar stopped 27 of 28 shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.

    Vladar has bounced back since the 6-2 loss to the Rangers on March 9, when he allowed six goals on 24 shots faced. He has allowed just three goals on 51 shots faced in his last two outings. Vladar should continue to operate as the Flyers' No. 1 netminder until further notice. With a 2.32 GAA and a .912 save percentage over his last 10 appearances, he's not in danger of losing that role any time soon.

  • Alex Bump LW | PHI

    Flyers' Alex Bump: Second goal of career

    Bump scored a goal in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.

    Bump has played five games at the NHL level this season and has three points already while posting a plus-1 rating. The 22-year-old winger might have some upside as long as he stays in a top-six role, but as a rookie, expect some ups and downs on a game-to-game basis. He seems to have a keen eye for goal, though, with two goals on his first eight shots in the NHL.

  • Jet Greaves G | CLB

    Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Strong showing in SO win

    Greaves stopped 18 of 19 shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout win over the Flyers.

    Greaves was making his first start since a 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings on March 9, and he bounced back with one of his best performances of the season Saturday. Greaves has allowed two or fewer goals in three of his last four starts, a stretch in which he has posted a 2.51 GAA with a .901 save percentage while also notching a 3-0-1 record.
