Anthony Stolarz Set To Face Red Wings Friday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz is expected to make his 10th start of the campaign in Friday's Original Six matchup against the Detroit Red Wings.

Lukas Dostal Looks To End Losing Streak On Friday

Anaheim Ducks goaltender Lukas Dostal has been confirmed as the starter for Friday's clash against Minnesota. The 24-year-old has been one of the most impressive netminders in the league at the beginning of the campaign, but Dostal heads into Friday's matchup sitting on a three-game losing run. He has given up nine goals in his […]

Mason Marchment A Game-Time Decision Saturday

Dallas Stars left wing Mason Marchment (undisclosed) could be back in action against Winnipeg on Saturday.

The 29-year-old power forward has not disappointed fantasy managers in 2024-25, recording eight points (two goals, six assists) […]

Sonny Milano Unavailable Friday

Washington Capitals left wing Sonny Milano (upper body) will not play against Pittsburgh on Friday. After being a healthy scratch for an extended period, Milano has played in back-to-back games.

Jeff Petry Sits Out Friday's Contest

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Jeff Petry will be a healthy scratch for Friday's matchup against Toronto. He comes out of the lineup after amassing a minus-three rating across the past three games. The entire campaign has been a struggle for Petry, who's produced only one assist in nine games. The Red Wings will insert Justin […]

Cam Fowler A Game-Time Call Friday

Anaheim Ducks defenseman Cam Fowler (upper body) has been labeled as a game-time decision for Friday's game against Minnesota. The veteran is dealing with an upper-body injury and missed the morning skate.

Philipp Grubauer Day-To-Day, Ales Stezka Called Up

Seattle Kraken goaltender Philipp Grubauer (undisclosed) will miss Friday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights as he deals with an injury suffered at home. The injury doesn't appear to be serious, as he was on the ice Friday morning, but it is enough to keep him out for at least one game. Ales Stezka was […]

Shane Pinto Could Return Saturday

Ottawa Senators center Shane Pinto (undisclosed) has been skating with the team and has a good chance to return on Saturday against the Boston Bruins. Pinto has missed seven games after suffering an injury on October 22. The 23-year-old has three points in six games so far this season and will likely return to his […]

Jakob Chychrun Skating, Unlikely To Play Friday

Washington Capitals defenseman Jakob Chychrun (upper body) was at team practice in a regular jersey, but doesn't seem to be ready to go for Friday's contest against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Chychrun has missed the last four games due to an upper-body injury suffered on October 29, but he is progressing and should return soon. The […]

Alex Lyon Dealing With Lower-Body Injury, Ville Husso Called Up

Detroit Red Wings goalie Alex Lyon (lower body) tweaked an injury in practice on Thursday and won't play in either of the team's back-to-back games on Friday and Saturday.

Tyler Seguin Expected Back Versus Blackhawks

Dallas Stars forward Tyler Seguin (lower body) is expected to rejoin the lineup for Thursday's tilt against Chicago. The veteran was unavailable for the previous game against Florida.

Brayden Point Remains Out On Thursday

Tampa Bay Lightning center Brayden Point (lower body) will skip a second consecutive game on Thursday versus Philadelphia. Point skated on Thursday morning but has been deemed not ready to play, and the team considers him day-to-day. With Point out, Tampa Bay has lost its second-best goal-scorer. The 28-year-old has lit the lamp eight times […]
