  • 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.

  • Blue Jackets' Kirill Marchenko: Pots another goal

    Marchenko scored a goal on five shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout win over the Flyers.

    Marchenko has found the back of the net in three of the Blue Jackets' last four games, and the 25-year-old winger continues to find ways to crack the scoresheet while holding a steady top-line role. The Russian winger has cracked the scoresheet in eight of his last 10 games, tallying 11 points (six goals, five assists) and a minus-1 rating in that span.

  • David Kampf C | WAS

    Capitals' David Kampf: Awaiting birth of second child

    Kampf has returned home to Vancouver to be with his wife while they await the birth of their second child, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports Sunday.

    Kampf hasn't suited up with the Capitals since being acquired due to issues with getting his work visa, and now he has another reason to miss some time with him and his wife expecting their second child soon. The 31-year-old has two goals and four assists in 38 games on the season. The Capitals have some time off and don't play again until Wednesday against the Senators.

  • Jacob Fowler G | MON

    Canadiens' Jacob Fowler: Tending twine Sunday

    Fowler will protect the home net against the Ducks on Sunday.

    Fowler will get the second half of the Canadiens' back-to-back after Jakub Dobes played in Saturday's 4-2 loss to San Jose. The 21-year-old Fowler is coming off a 32-save performance in Wednesday's 3-2 win over Ottawa. He has a 5-4-1 record with a 2.56 GAA and a .906 save percentage in 11 NHL appearances this season. Anaheim sits 13th in the league with 3.20 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign.

  • Jakub Dobes G | MON

    Canadiens' Jakub Dobes: Beaten three times Saturday

    Dobes stopped 17 of 20 shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

    Dobes did what he could to keep the Canadiens in the game, but the Sharks closed out the scoring with an empty-netter right when Montreal was pushing hard to score an equalizer. Dobes has allowed three or fewer goals in four of his five starts since the Olympic break, a span in which he has gone 3-2-0 with a 3.05 GAA and an .887 save percentage. Those are far from enticing numbers, but he also has three games with a save percentage of at least .920 in that span, so not all of his performances have been subpar. His numbers are dragged down by a March 3 loss to the Sharks during which he allowed six goals on 27 shots.

  • Nick Suzuki C | MON

    Canadiens' Nick Suzuki: Pots goal vs. Sharks

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

    Suzuki found the back of the net in the second period with a snap shot, giving him 22 goals on the season. The star playmaker has been one of Montreal's best players since the Olympic break, notching 11 points (four goals, seven assists) in eight appearances. On the season, Suzuki is up to 76 points (22 goals, 54 assists), and if he stays healthy, he's on pace to surpass the career-best 89 points he delivered across 82 regular-season appearances in 2024-25.
