Dan Vladar Considered Day-To-Day

Calgary Flames goaltender Dan Vladar (lower body) is considered day-to-day.

Vladar is sharing starts with Dustin Wolf this season and has gone […]

Cam Talbot Re-Aggravates Lower-Body Injury

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Cam Talbot (lower body) will not be available Saturday against Toronto. Talbot returned from a lower-body injury in Thursday's 4-1 loss to Philadelphia, stopping 32 of 34 shots, but he re-aggravated the injury in Friday's practice.

Matt Dumba To Remain Out On Saturday

Dallas Stars defenseman Matt Dumba (upper body) will miss a second straight game on Saturday versus St. Louis. He might be out for a few more games after the weekend as well, with Stars head coach Peter DeBoer noting that Dumba is "not week-to-week but not day-to-day," Dumba has zero fantasy value these days, as […]

Linus Ullmark Seeks Fourth Straight Win Friday

Ottawa Senators goaltender Linus Ullmark will make his 18th start of the season in Friday's matchup against Carolina. The 31-year-old faces a difficult challenge against a team that has the fifth-best record in the Eastern Conference and scores 3.71 goals per game, but Ullmark enters the action in good form. He has won three starts […]

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Kevin Lankinen became the third netminder in the league with three-plus shutouts for the season when he kept the Florida Panthers off the scoreboard with 27 saves in Thursday's 4-0 win.

Victor Hedman Day-To-Day With A Lower-Body Injury

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (lower body) is considered day-to-day. The former Norris Trophy winner was a late scratch for Thursday's matchup against Calgary.

Jake McCabe Available On Thursday

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Jake McCabe (upper body) is ready to rejoin the action on Thursday against Anaheim. Following a five-game absence, he has been activated from Injured Reserve.

New York Islanders defenseman Scott Mayfield (illness) will jump back into action on Thursday against Chicago. He was forced to skip Tuesday's meeting with Los Angeles because of an illness.

Anaheim Ducks center Trevor Zegras has undergone successful knee surgery and is expected to miss approximately six weeks of action.

Following back-to-back 60-point campaigns, Batherson has […]

Owen Power Picks Up Two Points In Losing Effort

Buffalo Sabres defenseman Owen Power registered a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Rangers. The 22-year-old was benched for most of the first period after Mika Zibanejad scored the game's opening goal on the power play off Power's mistake, but he bounced back well. Rasmus Dahlin's (back) absence has given Power […]

Mika Zibanejad Scores 300th Career Goal

New York Rangers center Mika Zibanejad celebrated his 300th career goal in Wednesday's 3-2 road victory at Buffalo. He reached the plateau with a power-play marker in the first period.

Javonte Green Questionable For Meeting With Kings

New Orleans Pelicans forward Javonte Green (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against Sacramento. A sore left ankle may keep Green off the court for a second consecutive game. Green has been a big beneficiary of New Orleans' injury troubles this season, starting in 12 contests. However, the Pelicans have started to get everybody back, […]

Josh Richardson To Sit Out At Least One Week

Miami Heat guard Josh Richardson (heel) will be unavailable for at least one week. Per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Richardson has had an injection in his right heel. The 31-year-old hasn't seen the court since Nov. 18, although he has recently been in the lineup. The 2024-25 campaign could not have gone […]

Jimmy Butler Probable For Thursday's Matchup

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) is expected to remain in the lineup against Toronto on Thursday. The team has listed him as probable for the game. Butler is battling knee soreness but has played in three straight contests. It's been an extremely efficient month for Butler, as he's shot 64.4 percent from the field […]

Ausar Thompson Ready To Return On Thursday

Detroit Pistons forward Ausar Thompson is not on the injury report for Thursday's game against Boston. He's set to return from a two-game absence.

Sam Hauser Doubtful For Thursday

Boston Celtics forward Sam Hauser (adductor) is considered doubtful for Thursday's clash with the Pistons. He missed the second half of Saturday's 127-121 loss to Memphis due to an adductor strain, and it appears likely that Hauser will miss Thursday's game entirely because of the injury. Prior to last weekend, Hauser enjoyed a strong stretch […]
