Stankoven scored a power-play goal in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Senators.

Stankoven broke the deadlock for the Hurricanes at the 5:22 mark of the first period. The 23-year-old forward is now on a four-game point streak -- a feat he hadn't accomplished since cracking the scoresheet in five straight games from Jan. 3-10. Stankoven is having the best season of his young career in 2025-26 and is up to 38 points (18 goals, 20 assists) in 77 regular-season outings. He already established personal bests in goals while matching his career high in points and has five games left in the season to add to his totals.

Andersen stopped 25 of 30 shots in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Senators. The sixth goal was an empty-netter with 57 seconds left in the game.

Andersen has been rotating with Brandon Bussi between the pipes, but the former hasn't had the best results of late after dropping three of his past four starts. Over that stretch, Andersen has posted disappointing numbers, allowing a total of 13 goals on 76 shots. It wouldn't be surprising if the timeshare between Andersen and Bussi continues until the end of the regular season, but from a results perspective, Andersen is clearly the No. 2 option to protect the Hurricanes' crease behind Bussi.

Martone recorded a power-play goal and an even-strength assist in Sunday's 2-1 overtime win over the Bruins.

Martone, a 19-year-old winger who made his NHL debut March 31, needed just two games to record his first point and only four games to find the back of the net for the first time. His first goal couldn't have come at a better time, as the tally 2:31 into overtime gave the Flyers a critical win in the midst of a playoff push. Martone has three points in his last three games, and he's certainly making the most of his first few shifts at the NHL level. He spent the 2025-26 season at Michigan State University, where he racked up 50 points (25 goals, 25 assists) in just 35 games.

Vladar stopped 18 of 19 shots on goal in Sunday's 2-1 overtime win over the Bruins.

Vladar was beaten early in the third period by a Pavel Zacha wrister on the power play, but he looked excellent the rest of the way as the Flyers escaped with the OT win. Vladar has posted a save percentage north of .910 in three of his last four starts, and the 28-year-old goaltender is in form late in the regular season. Over his last 10 games, Vladar has gone 6-3-1 with a 2.55 GAA and an .899 save percentage.

Dvorak recorded an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Sunday's 2-1 overtime win over the Bruins.

Dvorak gave the Flyers an early lead with a goal at the 4:19 mark of the first period, and he would later set up Porter Martone's game-winning goal in overtime. Dvorak has cracked the scoresheet in three of his last four games, and with 10 points (four goals, six assists) over his previous nine appearances, he's ending the regular season on a hot streak.

Zacha scored a power-play goal in Sunday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Flyers. He also recorded three hits and a blocked shot.

Zacha has been one of the most productive players for the Bruins in recent weeks, cracking the scoresheet in all but two of his last 13 games while earning 17 points (10 goals, seven assists) in that span. The 29-year-old forward has been deadly on the power play of late, as he's scored his last three goals -- all in Boston's last five games -- with the man advantage. Zacha has scored 11 of his 29 goals this season in power-play situations.

Korpisalo stopped 29 of 31 shots in Sunday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Flyers.

Korpisalo was beaten at the 4:19 mark of the first period and then held his own until overtime, when Porter Martone's first goal of the season gave Philadelphia the win. Korpisalo is the No. 2 option between the pipes for Boston, and while this outing was a strong showing overall, his recent performances haven't been good. In seven appearances since the Olympic break, the 31-year-old veteran has gone 3-1-3 with a 3.42 GAA and an .887 save percentage.

Hagel (lower body) won't play against Buffalo on Monday, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Hagel will miss his third straight game, and it's unclear if he will be ready to play against Ottawa on Tuesday. He has generated 35 goals, 73 points and 205 shots on net across 69 appearances this season. Oliver Bjorkstrand has occupied a top-six role for the last two outings due to Hagel's absence.

Sabourin (undisclosed) is considered a game-time decision for Monday's game against the Sabres, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Sabourin has missed the last two games due to his unspecified injury, but head coach Jon Cooper said after Monday's morning skate that the 33-year-old is "going to try" to play against Buffalo. Across 11 appearances since the Olympic break, Sabourin has recorded an assist, 28 hits, 26 PIM and three blocked shots while averaging 7:25 of ice time.

Barron (lower body) is week-to-week, according to Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press on Monday.

Barron sustained the injury in Saturday's 2-1 win over Columbus. He didn't participate in Monday's practice and appears likely to miss the remainder of the regular season. Barron has accounted for 11 goals, 23 points, 92 shots on net, 40 blocked shots and 132 hits across 65 appearances this campaign.
