  • Boone Jenner C | CLB

    Blue Jackets' Boone Jenner: Slow pace limits value

    Jenner scored a goal and added an assist in a 6-3 win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

    Jenner now has 10 goals, 21 assists and 107 shots in 53 games this season. Most of his production came earlier in the season. In his last 20 games, Jenner has just two goals and five assists.

  • Sharks' Tyler Toffoli: Doubtful to finish contest

    Toffoli sustained an undisclosed injury Thursday versus the Sabres and is doubtful to return, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Toffoli didn't come out of the locker room for the second period. Assuming he can't return, he'll be questionable to play Saturday versus the Flyers.

  • Blue Jackets' Adam Fantilli: Five-game, seven-point streak

    Fantilli scored twice Thursday in a 6-3 win over the Rangers. He fired a game-high nine shots.

    Fantilli scored the game winner on a second-period power play. His second goal sealed the win into the empty net. Fantilli's current scoring streak stands at five games and seven points (three goals, four assists). One goal and three of the assists came on the power play. Fantilli has been dominant since late January. He has 21 points, including nine goals, in 19 games since Jan. 24.

  • Flyers' Luke Glendening: Sustains lower-body injury

    Glendening missed Thursday's game versus the Kings due to a lower-body injury and is considered day-to-day.

    Glendening was a late scratch Thursday. The 36-year-old scored Wednesday versus the Ducks but apparently came out of the game a bit worse for wear. It's not yet clear if he'll suit up versus the Sharks on Saturday.

  • Flyers' Denver Barkey: Contending with injury

    Barkey missed Thursday's game versus the Kings due to an upper-body injury and is considered day-to-day.

    Barkey was a late scratch for the contest, forcing the Flyers to go with seven defensemen. The 20-year-old's day-to-day label suggests his injury isn't too serious at this point. The Flyers' next game is Saturday in San Jose.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Werenski: Career year continues

    Werenski had three assists in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Rangers.

    One helper came with the man advantage, while the other two were at even strength. Werenski sits in second in NHL in scoring from the blue line (72 points in 61 games), and he continues to leads the NHL in points-per-game (1.18) by a defender. Werenski is on pace for an 88-point season, which would establish a new career mark. His best season came last year when he put up 82 points, including 23 goals, in 81 games.

  • Adrian Kempe RW | LA

    Kings' Adrian Kempe: In line to play

    Kempe (lower body) is projected to be in the lineup versus the Flyers on Thursday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

    Kempe took warmups Thursday and looks to be in, though he was also on the ice prior to Monday's contest versus the Rangers before sitting out that game. Assuming he is good to return, Kempe is set for a top-line role and should be a factor on the power play as well.

  • Mammoth's Kevin Stenlund: Expected to play

    Stenlund (lower body) is expected to play against Vegas on Thursday.

    Stenlund missed Monday's 6-3 win over Dallas. He has four goals and 15 points in 66 outings in 2025-26. Stenlund is projected to serve on the fourth line alongside Alex Kerfoot and Kailer Yamamoto. Brandon Tanev is slated to be a healthy scratch due to Stenlund's return.

  • Lightning's Andrei Vasilevskiy: Slated to start Thursday

    Vasilevskiy is scheduled to guard the road goal versus the Canucks on Thursday, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports.

    Vasilevskiy picked up a win over the Kraken on Tuesday, stopping 16 of 18 shots in that contest. He has alternated wins and losses over his last four outings, giving up a total of 10 goals in that span. The Canucks are the worst team in the league, so Vasilevskiy has a good chance to put in a good performance.

  • Tanner Pearson LW | BUF

    Sabres' Tanner Pearson: Out Thursday

    Pearson (lower body) is expected to miss Thursday's game against San Jose, per Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News.

    Pearson also missed Buffalo's previous two games. He has seven goals and 13 points in 53 outings between Winnipeg and Buffalo in 2025-26. Pearson should be in the mix for a bottom-six spot once he's healthy.
