Blidh was summoned from AHL Hartford on Sunday.

Blidh has notched three goals and four assists in 32 minor-league outings during the 2025-26 campaign. He hasn't earned a point in two NHL appearances this season while posting eight hits.

Gibson will patrol the home crease against Ottawa on Sunday.

Gibson has stopped 135 of the 144 shots he has faced during his five-game winning streak. He has gone 18-9-1 with a 2.73 GAA, a .903 save percentage and three shutouts through 29 appearances during the 2025-26 campaign. Ottawa ranks 11th in the league this season with 3.26 goals per game.

Reimer will guard the road goal against the Red Wings on Sunday, per Jackson Starr of the Senators' official site.

Reimer will make his Ottawa debut in the second half of the team's back-to-back after Leevi Merilainen played in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to Montreal. The 37-year-old Reimer went 10-10-2 with a 3.04 GAA and an .896 save percentage in 24 regular-season appearances between Anaheim and Buffalo in 2024-25.

Hutson logged three assists, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Senators.

Hutson has seven helpers over his last six games, though he hasn't scored a goal in that span. One of his assists Saturday came on the power play. The 21-year-old blueliner has completely avoided a sophomore slump, totaling eight goals, 42 assists, 14 power-play points, 82 blocked shots, 80 shots on net and a plus-16 rating over 49 contests in his second NHL campaign.

Carrier scored a goal and blocked four shots in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Senators.

Carrier provided a clutch goal, tying the game with 3:19 left in the third period. The 29-year-old defenseman has three goals and three assists over his last eight outings. He won't keep up that scoring pace, but he is an important part of the Canadiens' defensive structure as the team's best shutdown blueliner. For the season, Carrier has contributed four goals, 11 assists, 35 shots on net, 113 blocked shots, 21 hits, 20 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 49 appearances.

Anderson scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, logged two hits, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Senators.

Anderson did a little of everything in this high-scoring game. He has three points over three contests since he returned from an upper-body injury. The veteran winger is at 11 goals, five assists, 56 shots on net, 40 PIM, 79 hits and 29 blocked shots over 43 appearances this season, mainly in a third-line role.

Eller notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Canadiens.

The helper was Eller's first point in five games since he returned from a broken foot. The 36-year-old center continues to occupy a bottom-six role, which has led to limited chances on offense. He's at seven points, 27 shots on net, 25 hits and 21 blocked shots through 33 appearances -- most fantasy managers can find better production on the waiver wire.

Namestnikov notched two assists and two shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.

Namestnikov has a goal and three helpers over five games since he was a healthy scratch Jan. 8 versus the Oilers. The 33-year-old's renewed success on offense has helped the Jets win four of those five games, picking up a total of nine standings point in that span. For the season, Namestnikov has 12 points, 57 shots on net, 60 hits, 27 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 46 outings. He will continue to occupy a middle-six role.

Sweezey was recalled from AHL Providence on Sunday under emergency conditions, per Belle Fraser of the Bruins' official site.

The Bruins needed an extra defenseman ahead of Tuesday's road matchup against Dallas after granting Henri Jokiharju (personal) non-roster status. Sweezey has one goal and 10 assists in 34 AHL appearances this season.

Niederreiter scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.

Niederreiter had gone 21 games without a goal. He picked up just two assists in that span, both coming within the last five contests. With the winger's offense coming around, he should be able to keep a middle-six role for the Jets. He's at 18 points, 67 shots on net, 59 hits and a minus-3 rating over 46 appearances this season.
