Khama Worthy Hits The Mat For First-Round KO Loss

It was a rough night at the office on Saturday for Khama Worthy. In less than one minute of action (46 seconds) Worthy took a big left hook on the chin from opponent Jamie Mullarkey and hit the mat. Unfortunately for Worthy, this marks his second first-round knockout loss in a row. Prior to the […]

Rougned Odor Not Guaranteed A Role

Texas Rangers infielder Rougned Odor's spot on the opening day roster is not a guarantee. Manager Chris Woodward was asked about the infielder's status on Sunday and he declined to confirm that Odor's inclusion on the team was guaranteed. With Nick Solak earmarked for second base this year, it was expected that the second base […]

Aaron Ekblad Leaves Game On Stretcher

Florida Panthers defenseman Aaron Ekblad had his night cut short by an apparent left leg injury in Sunday's 4-1 win over Dallas. He got tangled up with Esa Lindell in the middle of the second frame and landed awkwardly. Ekblad had to be stretchered off and sadly it looked like a season-ending injury. The 24-year-old […]

Jason Robertson Stays Productive With Power-Play Goal

Dallas Stars left wing Jason Robertson tallied a power-play goal in Sunday's 4-1 home loss to Florida, reaching 15 points for the month. Only five rookies in franchise history have managed to produce a more productive month. Robertson now sits on six goals and 21 points for the season with 58 shots and a plus-two […]

Jonathan Huberdeau Notches Three Points In Sunday's Win

Florida Panthers left wing Jonathan Huberdeau factored in three goals on Sunday against Dallas, helping his team to a 4-1 victory with two goals and one assist. He tied things up at 1-1 and netted the 3-1 goal on a power play. Huberdeau finished off his performance with an assist on Owen Tippett's empty-netter. Anthony […]

Mackenzie Blackwood Blanks Bruins On Sunday

New Jersey Devils goaltender Mackenzie Blackwood stopped all 40 shots against Boston on Sunday in a 1-0 win, registering his first shutout of the year. Kyle Palmieri provided the lone goal in the contest with Jesper Bratt and Ty Smith notching the assists. Blackwood now has a 9-9-1 record for the season with four of […]

Stephen Curry Practiced Fully Sunday, Questionable Monday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (tailbone) is questionable to play Monday against the Chicago Bulls. Curry has not played since March 17th after taking a hard fall to his tailbone, but practiced fully on Sunday and has a chance to make his return Monday. This is great news for Curry and would like be […]

Adin Hill Holds Down The Fort For Arizona

Arizona Coyotes goaltender Adin Hill will enter next week on a three-game winning streak after ending Colorado's winning run at seven games and beating San Jose in back-to-back starts. The Coyotes looked to have been in huge trouble when Darcy Kuemper (lower body) went to Injured Reserve and Antti Raanta (lower body) picked up yet […]

De'Andre Hunter Ruled Out Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) will not play Sunday against the Denver Nuggets. Hunter recently returned from a lengthy knee injury and is experiencing knee soreness, missing the past two games. It is possible Hunter may have returned too soon which made his knee flare up. Regardless, Hunter's absence should lead to another start […]

Nils Hoglander Enjoying Ride On Top Line

Vancouver Canucks winger Nils Hoglander was worked his way up to the top line and has been in fine form as of late, going pointless just once in the past five games. It was in a game where the whole team got neutralized as Winnipeg beat the Canucks 4-0 on Monday. Hoglander has seven goals […]

Andrew Copp Looks To Carry Good Momentum Into Next Week

Winnipeg Jets forward Andrew Copp will carry some very good momentum into next week, having gone pointless just once in five games and even producing a big four-goal performance in Wednesday's 5-1 win over Vancouver. The 26-year-old is a third-liner in Winnipeg, but he even has two four-point efforts to his name this season, bagging […]

Luke Kunin Returns In Top-Six Role

Nashville Predators forward Luke Kunin returned from a lower-body injury in Saturday's 3-1 win over Chicago and was productive straight away with two assists. He skated on the team's second line with Calle Jarnkrok and Mikael Granlund, while also earning minutes on the first power-play unit. Kunin, who missed a month of action, has modest […]

Joonas Donskoi Cashing In On Dominant Colorado Team

Colorado Avalanche winger Joonas Donskoi is on a hot streak with the team dominating, having scored in back-to-back outings to register 10 points in eight games. Playing as a third-liner, Donskoi hasn't garnered a lot of attention from fantasy managers, so he remains available in most leagues despite his great form. The Finnish winger will […]

Wendell Carter Jr. And Otto Porter Jr. To Make Debut Sunday

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. and forward Otto Porter Jr. are no longer listed on the injury report and available to play Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Carter and Porter were just sent over in a trade this past week and could both be in line for big minutes immediately. Porter was rumored […]

Roope Hintz Keeps Racking Up Points When Healthy

Dallas Stars forward Roope Hintz is carrying a niggling lower-body injury, but he's been very productive in limited game action this month, notching 11 points in nine appearances prior to Sunday's meeting with Florida. He has recorded six goals and three multi-point performances in March. Hintz again missed a game on Saturday, but he's centering […]

Christian Wood Questionable On Monday

Houston Rockets forward/center Christian Wood (illness) is questionable to play Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Wood missed their last game with an ankle injury and now is dealing with an illness, putting his availability in question. Newly acquired Kelly Olynyk played very well in Wood's absence and would likely gain another start if Wood were […]

Tommy Edman Named Starting Second Baseman

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Tommy Edman was named the team's starting second baseman by manager Mike Shildt. With Kolten Wong now a member of the division-rival Milwaukee Brewers, the Cardinals were in need of a new player to take over the keystone. Matt Carpenter's .028 spring batting average made this decision much easier for St. […]

Matt Carpenter Sinks Even Deeper

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Matt Carpenter continued to sink even deeper into his spring slump in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Washington Nationals. Carpenter got the start at third base and went 0-for-3 with a walk, lowering his spring batting average to .028. That's not a typo. That's .028. Carpenter has one hit in […]

Zach Aston-Reese Filling Top-Six Role As Injuries Pile Up

Pittsburgh Penguins winger Zach Aston-Reese is currently skating as a top-six forward with the team missing multiple regulars. He finished this week with a pair of pointless efforts but had a strong start with a two-point outing and should see more success in the upcoming games. The 26-year-old demonstrated a good nose for the goal […]

Adam Duvall Hits A Home Run On Sunday

Miami Marlins outfielder Adam Duvall hit a home run in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the New York Mets. He ended up going 2-for-3 with the blast and a single, scoring one run and driving in two. He wraps up spring training with a .227 batting average and an .825 OPS. The Marlins signed him […]

Jesus Aguilar Falls A Triple Shy On Sunday

Miami Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar fell a triple shy of the cycle in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the New York Mets. Aguilar went 3-for-3 with a double and a home run, driving in two runs and scoring two of his own. This was the final spring training game for the Marlins, so Aguilar […]

Aron Baynes Starting On Sunday

With Kyle Lowry (foot) out, the Toronto Raptors will push Aron Baynes into the starting lineup against the Portland Trail Blazers. This is likely a move to match Jusuf Nurkic and Enes Kanter on the boards given their size compared to Chris Boucher. Regardless, Boucher's fantasy managers have to feel a little frustrated as he […]

James van Riemsdyk, Flyers Set To Start Firing Again

Philadelphia Flyers left wing James van Riemsdyk has hit a wall in recent weeks, but he'll be in a perfect spot to regain his scoring form at the start of next week. The Flyers start the action with a pair of games against Buffalo on Monday and Wednesday. The Sabres will enter the week on […]

Jusuf Nurkic Will Continue Minutes Limit Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic will be limited to 20 minutes again Sunday against the Toronto Raptors. Nurkic just came back from both wrist and calf injuries so this is to be expected. Nurkic will play five minutes per quarter as he gets into game shape. This is good news for Enes Kanter and […]

Kyle Lowry Late Scratch With Foot Soreness

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (foot) will not play Sunday against the Portland Trail Blazers. There was no indication Lowry was dealing with this injury, but the Raptors are entering a back-to-back set so it could just be precautionary. With Lowry out, Fred VanVleet should see the majority of the ball-handling. Gary Trent Jr., Rodney […]

Isan Diaz Headed Back To Triple-A

Miami Marlins second baseman Isan Diaz is heading back to Triple-A after an incredibly disappointing spring performance. Diaz came into spring training with the starting second base job essentially handed to him and then proceeded to get just two hits in the entirety of Grapefruit League play. Diaz ended the spring with a .059 batting […]

Oliver Wahlstrom Provides Good Scoring From Third Line

New York Islanders right wing Oliver Wahlstrom has quietly had a couple of very strong weeks, notching five goals in eight games. He was also riding a five-game point streak before the Penguins neutralized the 20-year-old on Saturday. Wahlstrom has nine goals and 16 points for the campaign with 57 shots and 32 hits in […]

Jazz Chisholm Wins The Starting Second Base Job

Miami Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm has officially won the starting job according to general manager Kim Ng. Chisholm and Isan Diaz came into spring training competing for the job, and all signs pointed to Diaz having a significant advantage to start things off. Chisholm ended up hitting .268 with an .821 OPS while Diaz […]

Yimi Garcia Allows Another Run On Sunday

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Yimi Garcia allowed another run on Sunday while recording the final two outs of a 10-2 Grapefruit League win over the New York Mets. Garcia ended up pitching 2/3 of an inning, giving up a run on a solo home run and recording one strikeout. Garcia struggled in the playoffs last […]

Adam Cimber Records Four Outs In Sunday's Game

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Adam Cimber recorded four outs in Sunday's Grapefruit League finale against the New York Mets. Cimber's 1 1/3 innings included one walk and two strikeouts. He wraps up spring training with a strong 1.13 ERA and should be a key member of a much-improved Marlins bullpen. He'll likely begin the season […]
