Montreal Canadiens forward Tyler Toffoli led his team with three points (two goals, one assist) in a 4-2 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Monday night.

Vancouver Canucks forward J.T. Miller helped his team claim a full two points on Monday, potting home a breakaway goal in overtime versus the Ottawa Senators.

Tristan Jarry Wins Fifth Straight Start On Monday

Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry pulled out a victory in his fifth consecutive start as his team claimed a 4-1 win over the Boston Bruins on Monday. The 25-year-old was extremely busy in this one - stopping a season-high 42 of 43 shots against in the contest. After a terrible start to the campaign (3.92 […]

Gerrit Cole Struggles Tuesday

New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole struggled on Tuesday against the Detroit Tigers as he allowed two earned runs on three hits while walking one and striking out five. The damage came off two solo home runs, so this one can likely be written off as just a couple of bad pitches by the Yankees' […]

De'Andre Hunter Could Return On Thursday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) could play as early as Thursday, according to Hawks general manager Travis Schlenk. He is making fantastic progress from his right knee meniscus surgery. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire to see if Hunter is still available. He should easily get around 25 minutes per game, and that […]

Sidney Crosby Lifts Pens Over Bruins On Monday

Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby buried the game-winning goal and added a pair of assists as his team defeated the visiting Boston Bruins 4-1 on Monday. With the three-point performance, Crosby extended his personal point streak to seven games (four goals, seven assists) and he's now sitting over a point-per-game (29 points in 27 games) […]

Davis Bertans Could Miss Wednesday's Game

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans (knee, calf) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He banged up his knee during Monday's game, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Wizards take the cautious approach here. Troy Brown would gain the most fantasy value, assuming Bertans sits out on Wednesday. He'd […]

Colts Place Second-Round Tender On Zach Pascal

The Indianapolis Colts placed a second-round tender on restricted free-agent wide receiver Zach Pascal on Tuesday, according to a source. The Colts are hoping to bring Pascal back in 2021. The 26-year-old had a career-high 44 catches on 71 targets for 629 yards and five touchdowns in 16 games (14 starts) for the Colts in […]

Tyler Herro Probable For Tuesday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (shoulder) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is dealing with a strained right shoulder, but should be able to play through the issue. Herro dropped 22 points and eight rebounds during his last outing. It sounds like he should be fine for this favorable […]

Ryan Yarbrough Looks Sharp Tuesday

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Ryan Yarbrough was sharp in Tuesday's Grapefruit League action as he threw 3 1/3 scoreless innings while allowing three hits and striking out two. Yarbrough has now thrown 4 1/3 scoreless innings this spring and could be in line for a solid 2021. He will look to build off a […]

Elfrid Payton Doubtful To Play Against Sixers

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He missed Monday's game and it's highly unlikely that he suits up here. Payton continues to battle with a lingering hamstring issue, which seem to take quite a while to fully heal. Derrick Rose remains out due […]

Raiders Release Rodney Hudson

The Las Vegas Raiders are releasing Pro Bowl center Rodney Hudson on Tuesday, according to a source. The Raiders continue to overhaul their offensive line this offseason after the unit was among the best in the NFL just a couple of years ago. The three-time Pro Bowler was a rock at center for the Raiders […]

Luguentz Dort Questionable For Tuesday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (toe) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He missed Sunday's game due to a sprained toe and could very well sit here as well. His absence would mean more minutes for Justin Jackson, but that doesn't mean much for fantasy managers. The trade of […]

Phillip Dorsett Headed To Jaguars

The Jacksonville Jaguars signed free-agent wide receiver Phillip Dorsett to an undisclosed deal on Monday. Dorsett was with the Seattle Seahawks last year, but he never took the field after injuring his right foot in training camp and being placed on Injured Reserve. Before 2020, Dorsett spent three years with the New England Patriots, posting […]

Jordan McLaughlin, Jarrett Culver Likely To Sit On Tuesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guards Jordan McLaughlin and Jarrett Culver (toe) are both expected to miss Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. McLaughlin continues to remain sidelined due to the NBA's health and safety protocols. Culver is listed as doubtful, but he has missed four straight games. There is a good chance he remains sidelined once […]

Jaguars Re-Sign Dawuane Smoot

The Jacksonville Jaguars re-signed defensive end Dawuane Smoot to a two-year, $14 million deal on Monday. Despite a disappointing overall defense in 2020, Smoot was one of several young players that showed promise. The 26-year-old was a third-round pick in 2017. He started out slow, but he has racked up 11.5 sacks in the last […]

D'Angelo Russell Continues To Be Sidelined

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (knee) won't suit up for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He underwent arthroscopic left knee surgery and his return is likely to be delayed, according to head coach Chris Finch. There were rumors that Russell would begin on-court work last weekend, but that didn't happen. Fantasy managers can […]

Dwight Powell Questionable For Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks center Dwight Powell (illness) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He sat out of Monday's game due to an illness, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him miss another game. Willie Cauley-Stein and Maximilian Kleber would be asked to soak up the extra minutes. Neither are […]

Rashod Hill Returns To Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings re-signed offensive lineman Rashod Hill to an undisclosed fully guaranteed one-year deal on Monday. Hill served as a valuable swing tackle for the Vikings in 2020, filling in for Brian O'Neill and Riley Reiff at times. He ended up playing 122 offensive snaps last year and also contributed on special teams. The […]

Titans Bring In Kendall Lamm For O-Line Depth

The Tennessee Titans signed former Cleveland Browns offensive lineman Kendall Lamm to a two-year deal for up to $8.5 million on Monday. The deal includes $3 million guaranteed, with Lamm likely serving as the primary backup at either left or right tackle. Lamm will carry a 2021 salary cap hit of $2.61 million, and the […]

J.B. Bukauskas One Of Five Players Reassigned On Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher J.B. Bukauskas was optioned to Triple-A on Tuesday afternoon, the team announced on Twitter.

Sean Murphy To Make Spring Debut On Thursday

Oakland Athletics catcher Sean Murphy (lung) will make his Cactus League debut on Thursday, according to manager Bob Melvin.

He won't hit for much batting average, but a […]

Jets Receiving Trade Calls On C.J. Mosley

The New York Jets have been receiving trade calls on four-time Pro Bowl linebacker C.J. Mosley. The seventh-year veteran still has $22 million in guarantees remaining on his contract after he opted out due to COVID-19 in 2020. His salary cap hit on a new team would be $6 million in 2021. Mosley signed a […]

Nick Ahmed Scratched From Lineup Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Nick Ahmed (knee) was a late scratch from the lineup on Tuesday afternoon, according to Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic. Ahmed has not appeared in a game since March 6, as he has been dealing with right knee soreness. With Ahmed's continued absence, Josh Rojas has been taking advantage of the increased […]

Jameis Winston, Taysom Hill To Compete At Quarterback

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton said he expects quarterbacks Jameis Winston and Taysom Hill to compete for the starting quarterback job in 2021 after Drew Brees announced his retirement this week. Hill has been impressive for his versatility, but his viability as a full-time starter under center seems less appealing with Brees now […]

Yu Darvish Looking Ready For Regular Season

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Yu Darvish continues to look sharp this spring. He's pitched five scoreless innings while boasting a 7-0 strikeout-to-walk ratio, allowing just two baserunners. The veteran right-hander said he focused on throwing more changeups and splitters in his second spring outing, two pitches he combined to throw less than 10 percent […]
