Colorado Avalanche winger Artturi Lehkonen (finger) will miss a 15th consecutive game Tuesday against the Oilers, but he is reportedly close to returning.

Jack Eichel Remains Out Tuesday

Vegas Golden Knights center Jack Eichel (lower body) will remain out for a second consecutive game Tuesday versus Seattle. The team considers him day-to-day, so Eichel shouldn't be out for long, but it's unclear if he will feature in the regular season again.

John Collins Back From One-Game Absence

Atlanta Hawks forward/center John Collins (back) will return from a one-game absence Tuesday against Miami. He was rested Sunday versus Boston with lower back tightness.

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (thigh) expects to be ready for the start of the 2023-24 campaign, reports Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel.

Zion Williamson Not Close To Returning

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (hamstring) will remain out for the play-in tournament and likely isn't ready for the start of the playoffs either if the team qualifies.

Minnesota Wild winger Marcus Johansson took full advantage of top-line minutes in Monday's matchup against Chicago, leading the team to a 4-2 victory with two goals and one assist.

Josh Morrissey Sets New Record With 20th Multi-Point Outing

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Josh Morrissey logged a goal and two assists in Monday's 6-2 win over San Jose, setting a new franchise record for most multi-point games in a season by a defenseman.

Dallas Stars center Roope Hintz collected four points as the team demolished Detroit 6-1 on Monday. He opened the scoring with his 36th marker of the campaign and dished out three assists.

San Jose Sharks defenseman Erik Karlsson scored twice in Monday's 6-2 loss to Winnipeg to become the sixth blue-liner in NHL history with a 100-point season.

Stefan Noesen A Game-Time Call Monday

Carolina Hurricanes winger Stefan Noesen (lower body) is considered a game-time call for Monday's matchup against Ottawa.

The 30-year-old has […]

Devon Levi Set For Another Start

Buffalo Sabres goaltender Devon Levi is expected to get his fourth consecutive start Monday versus the Rangers.
