Greaves stopped 20 of 22 shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens.

Greaves was beaten in the first and third periods, but the offense provided him enough support to cruise to a win on the road. Greaves has been alternating wins and losses over his four starts, a stretch in which he's posted a 2.75 GAA with an .898 save percentage. It remains to be seen if Greaves will also start Sunday against the Bruins on the second leg of a back-to-back set.

Finnie recorded a goal and an assist in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Devils.

This two-point performance snapped Finnie's 11-game goalless streak, and it also ended a three-game streak without a point. Considering he recorded only two points during the 11-game goal drought, it's clear that Finnie shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy appeal despite holding a top-six role. The 20-year-old should stay on waivers in the final days of the regular season, though he's a name to remember for the future, having posted 30 points in 80 games as a rookie.

Gibson stopped 28 of 32 shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Devils. The fifth goal Detroit allowed was an empty-netter with 60 seconds left in the game.

The Red Wings' playoff hopes were officially extinguished after Saturday's loss, and while Gibson isn't solely to blame for the poor run in recent games, he certainly has some culpability. He has lost three of his last four starts, going 1-2-1 with a 3.43 GAA and a subpar .881 save percentage in that span. It remains to be seen if he'll suit up for either of Detroit's final two games -- at Tampa Bay on Monday and at Florida on Wednesday.

Hughes recorded a goal and an assist in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Red Wings.

Hughes has found the back of the net in back-to-back games, and even though the Devils are out of playoff contention, the star playmaker remains a valuable fantasy asset across all formats due to his heavy involvement in New Jersey's offensive scheme. Hughes is ending the season on a strong note with five multi-point performances over his last eight contests, tallying 16 points (seven goals, nine assists) and a plus-6 rating over that stretch.

Bratt recorded two goals on three shots and added an assist in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Red Wings.

Bratt snapped a four-game scoreless drought with a two-goal performance here, and even though the Devils are out of playoff contention, the winger remains a productive player. The consistency Bratt delivers year-to-year makes him a valuable fantasy asset across all formats. With this three-point performance, Bratt reached the 70-point mark for a fifth straight regular season.

Howard has been recalled from AHL Bakersfield by the Oilers, the team announced Sunday.

Howard hasn't seen NHL action since late January, instead seeing an extended run in the AHL with Bakersfield. The 22-year-old has been impressive with the Condors, posting 47 points (22 goals, 25 assists) in 45 games. His NHL numbers haven't been quite as gaudy as he has just five points in 28 games, but he will likely have a chance to add to those numbers during the final two games of the regular season.

Allen stopped 25 of 28 shots in Saturday's win over the Red Wings.

Allen earned the win here, but he continues to be an underwhelming fantasy performer, as this was his third straight game with a save percentage below the .900 mark. Allen will work as the Devils' No. 1 goaltender after Jacob Markstrom (undisclosed) was shut down for the final three games of the regular season. However, Nico Daws has been announced as the starter for Sunday's game against Ottawa, lining up Allen to start in the regular-season finale against the Bruins on Tuesday.

Acciari (upper body) is out of the lineup Sunday against the Capitals, the Penguins announced.

Acciari had missed only one game since the calendar turned to 2026, but it will be two after Sunday's absence. The 34-year-old has pieced together one of the best years of his career, notching 25 points (13 goals, 12 assists) in 66 games. He'll have one more chance to return in the regular season Tuesday against the Blues.

Clifton (upper body) won't play against Washington on Sunday.

Clifton will miss at least one game and is day-to-day ahead of Tuesday's regular-season finale against St. Louis. He has produced two goals, four assists, 34 shots on net, 83 blocked shots and 179 hits through 49 appearances this campaign.

Shea (upper body) is day-to-day and won't be in the lineup against Washington on Sunday.

Shea will miss at least one game, but he might be an option for Tuesday's regular-season finale against St. Louis. He has registered six goals, 30 points, 71 shots on net and 92 blocked shots across 79 outings this season.
