NHL Player News

Bobrovsky made 16 saves in a 4-3 loss to Utah on Tuesday. He allowed three goals.

The Mammoth scored into an empty net to push the score to 4-2 before Florida notched its third goal in the last minute of play. Bobrovsky is tied for fifth in the NHL in wins with 20, but his 3.08 GAA and .874 save percentage are well below league averages (2.86; .897) this season. This future Hall-of-Famer's fantasy value is tied up in those wins, a little like Alexandar Georgiev's was a few seasons ago. Bob is a far better goalie, but we could be witnessing the wear-and-tear of three long Stanley Cup runs, including two championships, on a now 37-year-old twinetender. Your league settings will determine where his value lands.

Vilmas scored a goal Tuesday in a 4-3 loss to Utah.

It was Vilmas' first NHL goal in his ninth NHL game. He added five hits and has 12 in his last two outings. Vilmas was back on the fourth line after skating up the lineup Monday against the Bolts. He could be a human wrecking ball in leagues that count the number of bruises delivered.

Sergachev scored a goal Tuesday in a 4-3 win over the Panthers.

Sergachev has sharpened his game in his last four outings; he has five points (one goal, four assists), five shots and six PIM in that span. He has 37 points (eight goals, 29 points) and sits in a tie with Jakob Chychrun for 12th overall in league scoring from the blue line.

Oesterle scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Milwaukee's 5-3 win over Rockford on Tuesday.

Oesterle hasn't gotten a look with the Predators this season. He's earned five points over the last three games, but Andreas Englund got the call-up over Oesterle after it was determined Nicolas Hague (lower body) was set for a week-to-week absence through the Olympic break. Oesterle is at 21 points with a minus-13 rating over 39 AHL contests this season.

Schaefer scored two goals and added an assist in AHL Milwaukee's 5-3 win over Rockford on Tuesday.

Schaefer had gone scoreless in his first three games back in the AHL after getting demoted from the Predators. He broke out in a big way in this contest. Schaefer is up to six goals, 17 points, 50 shots on net and 37 PIM through 19 appearances for the Admirals this season.

Schmaltz scored a goal Tuesday in a 4-3 win over the Panthers.

It was a shorthanded goal that opened the scoring in the first period; it was also his first SHG of the season. It was Schmaltz's 19th goal of the campaign (53 games). He's not scoring like he was earlier in 2025-26, but he's still building toward a career season. Schmaltz has 47 points, 126 shots and a plus-17 rating in 53 games. Most impressively, he has swung his plus-minus from an abysmal minus-15 last year to that strong mark this season, and he's on pace to top 70 points.

Durzi (undisclosed) had a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 win over Florida.

He left Monday's game early because of a big hit, but he looked none the worse for wear Tuesday. Durzi has a pair of two-point games (one goal, three assists) in his last three outings. Overall, the defender has four goals, 13 assists, 56 blocks and 56 shots in 32 games this season.

Glass (undisclosed) was injured in the second period of Tuesday's game versus the Jets, and he will require further evaluation to determine his status moving forward, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

Glass attempted to return during the second period but didn't play in the third. He should be considered questionable at best to play Thursday versus the Predators. If he can't suit up, the Devils will likely need to shuffle their bottom six around, especially after acquiring Maxim Tsyplakov from the Islanders earlier Tuesday.

Greenway missed Tuesday's game versus the Maple Leafs due to an injury concern related to the sports hernia surgery he had over the summer, Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News reports.

Greenway is expected to see the team's medical staff in the coming days. Given the nature of the injury, it's possible Greenway ends up being shut down through the Olympic break. He's already had his minutes managed in a part-time role this season to attempt to mitigate injury risk.

Kyrou (upper body) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Stars.

The Blues also lost Jake Neighbours (lower body) earlier in the contest. The severity of Kyrou's injury isn't known, but it comes at a rough time, as he had scored three goals and added four assists over his previous seven games before a scoreless outing Tuesday. More information should be available prior to Thursday's game versus the Panthers.
