Highmore scored two goals in AHL Providence's 3-2 overtime loss to Bridgeport on Sunday.

Highmore is now at seven goals and 25 points in 47 appearances this season. He's on pace to top the 30-point mark in the AHL for the third time in four years, though he's unlikely to land anywhere near his 61-point effort from the 2022-23 regular season with Springfield. Prior to Sunday, Highmore had gone more than two months without a goal, earning just seven assists over 23 appearances.

Binnington made 12 saves in Canada's 10-2 rout of France during Olympic round-robin play Sunday.

Canada never trailed in the game after Tom Wilson opened the scoring midway through the first period, and Binnington wasn't terribly busy as his teammates out-shot France 46-14. The St. Louis netminder finished the round robin with a 2-0 record and a .950 save percentage, and he'll get a couple days off before Canada faces the winner of Tuesday's Czechia-Denmark tilt in the quarterfinals Wednesday.

Huang scored a goal and added four assists in QMJHL Chicoutimi's 9-1 win over Rimouski on Sunday.

Huang had gone 14 games without a multi-point effort, spanning all of January and February prior to Sunday. This was his second five-point performance of the season. The Nashville prospect has matched his career high of eight goals and has 53 points and a plus-36 rating through 48 appearances this season.

Hellebuyck will guard the Team USA goal against Germany on Sunday at the 2026 Winter Olympics, according to Nick Cotsonika of NHL.com.

He made 17 saves in Thursday's 5-1 win over Latvia. Hellebuyck was Jeremy Swayman's backup in Saturday's 6-3 victory over Denmark.

Andersen will start Sunday's Olympic round-robin game in goal against Latvia.

It will be the second start of the Olympics for Andersen. The 36-year-old started Denmark's first group play game against Germany, stopping 23 of the 26 shots that he faced. With the team on the front end of a back-to-back Saturday, Andersen got the game off, but he is returning to the net Sunday.

Silovs will patrol the crease for Latvia against Denmark on Sunday at the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Silovs is coming off a 26-save performance in Saturday's 4-3 win over Germany. He has a 1-1-0 record with a 3.00 GAA and an .886 save percentage through two appearances in the tournament.

Sogaard (lower body) is not dressed for Sunday's Olympic round-robin game against Latvia.

Sogaard left Denmark's last game midway through the third period while facing a heavy workload against Team USA. The 25-year-old likely wouldn't have started Sunday anyway -- Frederik Andersen is expected to start against Latvia -- but it's notable that Sogaard isn't even dressed for the contest. It remains to be seen whether this injury will affect Sogaard's availability for the Senators coming out of the Olympic break.

Moser supplied two assists and put two shots on goal in Switzerland's 4-3 overtime win over Czechia in Olympic round-robin play Sunday.

Moser slid the primary helpers on goals scored by Roman Josi and Pius Suter, which ultimately set Switzerland up to win Sunday's contest in overtime. The pair of helpers brought Moser up to four points for the tournament, which is tied for the team lead alongside Timo Meier. Moser should continue to see heavy usage alongside Josi for the remainder of the event.

Meier tallied a power-play goal, recorded an assist and fired five shots on net in Switzerland's 4-3 overtime win over Czechia in Olympic round-robin play Sunday.

Meier found the back of the net with just under 90 seconds remaining in the second period before later picking up a secondary helper on Pius Suter's goal to help send the game into overtime. At the Olympics, Meier is now tied for the lead in goals with Germany's Tim Stutzle and Slovakia's Juraj Slafkovsky. Meier will be tasked with a large role offensively for Switzerland during bracket play with Kevin Fiala (leg) out for the rest of the tournament.

Necas scored a goal, recorded two assists and fired seven shots on net in Czechia's 4-3 overtime loss to Switzerland in Olympic round-robin play Sunday.

Necas stuffed the stat sheet in Sunday's loss as he assisted on two goals before finding the back of the net himself with just over two minutes remaining in regulation to send the game to overtime. He also fired seven shots on net and should continue to lead Czechia's offense alongside David Pastrnak when bracket play begins. Necas is tied for third in the Olympics with five points.
