NHL Player News

Wright was returned to AHL Ontario on Wednesday, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.

Wright made his NHL debut Monday against Colorado, racking up three hits in 9:42 of ice time in a 4-2 loss. He'll be available for Ontario during Wednesday's game against Tucson, but it's not yet clear whether he'll rejoin the NHL club in the near future. Over 53 appearances with the Reign this year, he's recorded 15 goals, 13 assists, 11 PIM and a plus-25 rating.

Sergachev scored a power-play goal on four shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Capitals.

Sergachev has two goals and three assists over his last six outings, with four of those five points coming on the power play. The 27-year-old defenseman has now reached the 10-goal mark in three of the last four years. He's at 42 points (18 on the power play), 128 shots on net, 100 blocked shots, 36 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 61 appearances in a top-pairing role.

Forsberg scored a power-play goal on three shots in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Forsberg has three goals over his last four games, and his last two tallies have come with the man advantage. The star winger is up to 27 goals, 50 points (18 on the power play), 190 shots on net, 107 hits and a minus-7 rating over 61 appearances this season. It's far from a peak year for Forsberg, but he's still a reliable goal scorer with a physical edge.

Coyle scored a goal on six shots, added two hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Predators.

Coyle was right in the mix at the net front on multiple scoring plays. In the end, he came away with just one goal, but it was the game-winner at 6:07 of the third period, snapping his six-game goal drought. During that span, he still had six assists, and he's earned six goals and 10 helpers across his last 10 outings. Coyle is up to 16 goals, 46 points, 108 shots on net, 81 hits, 40 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 60 appearances, offering plenty of all-around upside even in a third-line role.

Fantilli scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Predators.

Fantilli has scored in four straight contests while earning four goals and three assists during a five-game streak. The 21-year-old center continues to show growth in his third NHL campaign. He's up to 17 goals, 42 points, 157 shots on net, 99 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating over 60 appearances. He's on pace to top the 54-point campaign he had in all 82 games a year ago, and his recent play suggests he is poised to finish strong.

Edstrom (lower body) took part in rushes as a member of the fourth line during Wednesday's practice, per Peter Baugh of The Athletic.

Edstrom might be ready to return for Thursday's game against Toronto. However, he would need to be activated off LTIR before rejoining the lineup. Edstrom has two goals, four points, two PIM and 48 hits in 24 appearances in 2025-26. He hasn't played since Nov. 29 because of the injury.

Myers (not injury related) was acquired by Dallas from Vancouver on Wednesday in exchange for a 2027 second-round pick and a 2029 fourth-round selection, per Pierre LeBrun of TSN.

Vancouver retained half of Myers' remaining contract, so Dallas is responsible for $1.5 million of his annual cap hit for the rest of this campaign and 2026-27. The 36-year-old defenseman has a goal, eight points, 40 PIM, 65 hits and 91 blocks in 57 appearances in 2025-26. He might see his playing time drop in Dallas relative to his average of 20:13 in Vancouver this season, but Myers should be a solid option on the Stars' second or third pairing. Myers missed Vancouver's past three games for roster-management reasons as the Canucks shopped him, and it remains to be seen if he'll make his Stars debut Friday versus Colorado. Myers might be given more time to settle in before getting into his first game with Dallas.

Domingue signed a one-year, two-way contract with Florida on Wednesday.

Domingue has been playing for AHL Charlotte on a minor-league only deal, going 3-3-0 with an .831 save percentage in seven contests. The decision to add the veteran backstop to the organizational depth chart for the rest of the 2025-26 campaign could be a sign that the Panthers will be making changes in their goalie room. Still, Domingue will end up on waivers Wednesday to return to the Checkers in the minors.

Lavoie was sent to AHL Henderson on Wednesday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

Lavoie recorded a hit in 8:34 of ice time in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Buffalo after being recalled from the minors. He'll head back to the minors a day later after the Golden Knights acquired Cole Smith from Nashville on Tuesday.

Jones was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Wednesday.

Jones spent just over a week with Minnesota, but he didn't appear in any games during his stint with the NHL club. He should see more consistent opportunities to contribute in the minors, where he's recorded five goals, 11 assists and 12 PIM over 18 appearances with Iowa this year.
