Ilya Sorokin To Face Bruins On Wednesday

New York Islanders goaltender Ilya Sorokin will get the nod for Wednesday's matchup against Boston. He returns to the crease after Semyon Varlamov was beaten 4-2 by Detroit on Monday. Sorokin has left many fantasy managers disappointed this season, going 5-3-3. However, his poor record is mainly down to the team's offensive woes. The Islanders […]

Utah Hockey Club right wing Dylan Guenther celebrated his 100th career game with a two-point effort in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win against Montreal.

Nick Schmaltz Records Two Assists In Tuesday's Win

Utah Hockey Club forward Nick Schmaltz grabbed two assists as the team beat Montreal 3-2 in overtime Tuesday night. Dylan Guenther and Mikhail Sergachev benefited from Schmaltz's playmaking, with the latter scoring the game-winning goal inside the final minute of the extra frame.

Mike Matheson Traveling With Team

Montreal Canadiens defenseman Mike Matheson (lower body) will travel with the team to Columbus for Wednesday's clash with the Blue Jackets.

Taurean Prince Available On Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Taurean Prince (illness) is good to go for Tuesday's matchup against Miami. He was initially regarded as questionable for the game due to an illness. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) out, Prince might have to do a bit extra on Tuesday. The 30-year-old is shooting over 55 percent from deep this month and […]

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's encounter with Detroit. Per Damichael Cole of The Commercial Appeal, Morant is out with a left knee contusion.

Chicago Bulls forward Julian Phillips (illness) will play on Tuesday against Washington. An illness kept Phillips out from Saturday's game against Memphis, but he has recovered well enough to be ready for action against the Wizards.

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) might rejoin the action later in the week.

Timo Meier Receives One-Game Suspension

New Jersey Devils winger Timo Meier has been suspended for one game. He will be forced to sit out Wednesday's matchup against St. Louis after cross-checking Nashville forward Zachary L'Heureux in Monday's 5-2 win.

Brock Boeser Returns To Action Tuesday

Vancouver Canucks right wing Brock Boeser (upper body) will be back in the lineup for Tuesday's battle against Boston.

Kyle Filipowski Sits Out Second Consecutive Game

Utah Jazz forward/center Kyle Filipowski (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against San Antonio. He sprained his right ankle last week against the Spurs, and it's unclear when Utah will have Filipowski in the lineup again. Drew Eubanks benefits from Filipowski's absence but is not a good fantasy asset. John Collins and Walker […]

Jordan Clarkson Back On The Shelf Tuesday

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) will exit the lineup on Tuesday versus San Antonio.

Joe Ingles Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Joe Ingles (calf) has landed on the injury report as questionable ahead of Tuesday's matchup against Houston. The Australian veteran is nursing a calf injury. Ingles' absence shouldn't impact the T-Wolves, as he hasn't been part of the rotation in the last couple of weeks anyway. Even early in the campaign, Ingles […]

Mike Conley Iffy For Tuesday's Action

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Mike Conley (toe) is regarded as questionable for Tuesday's meeting with Houston. The veteran has been out for a couple of games with a toe injury, and his return on Tuesday is far from certain. Conley appears to be on his last legs, averaging 7.5 points and 4.8 assists for the […]

Taurean Prince Questionable To Face Heat

Milwaukee Bucks forward Taurean Prince (illness) has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's encounter with Miami.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Considered Probable For Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is expected to suit up against Miami on Tuesday.
