Antti Raanta Returns To Action Versus Colorado

Arizona Coyotes goaltender Antti Raanta will make his first appearance since Feb. 13 on Saturday when the team hosts Colorado. The 31-year-old has been on the shelf with an upper-body injury, but was the backup to Adin Hill in Friday's matchup with the Avalanche and now makes his fourth appearance of the season. Raanta is […]

Bam Adebayo Probable, Tyler Herro Questionable For Sunday

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (knee) has been listed as probable, while guard Tyler Herro (hip) has been listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Hawks. Adebayo has been dealing with knee tendinitis, or jumper's knee, though he's racked up four double-doubles and a triple-double in his last five games ahead of a battle […]

Jaylen Brown Questionable For Sunday's Game Against The Wizards

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (knee) has been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Wizards. Brown continues to deal with knee tendonitis, though his workload has been about the same over the last several games. In fact, Brown has played at least 34 minutes in six of his last seven games- while scoring […]

Kaapo Kahkonen Will Go For Fifth Straight Victory

Minnesota Wild goaltender Kaapo Kahkonen will aim for a fifth straight win in Saturday's rematch with the Kings. Cam Talbot returned to action with a 27-save effort and beat Los Angeles on Friday 3-1, and now it's up to Kahkonen to sweep the two-game set. The 24-year-old has been in fantastic form lately, allowing two […]

DraftKings MMA, UFC DFS Lineup Picks - Rozenstruik vs. Gane (UFC Vegas 20)

This upcoming weekend's event will kick-start a month-long run of UFC cards that will carry us through the month of March until we reach UFC FN 188 in April. That latter card is currently expected to happen on Apr. 10, but it is still to be confirmed if it will happen, and when it will […]

Furkan Korkmaz Enters The Starting Five

Philadelphia 76ers guard Furkan Korkmaz is in the starting five for Saturday's game against Cleveland. Korkmaz could see extra run with Tobias Harris (knee) out after leaving Thursday's game with a knee contusion. Korkmaz is just a game removed from a 19-point, five-triple performance against the Raptors, though he's been up-and-down this year. Still, Cleveland […]

Cedi Osman Ruled Out Against Sixers

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Cedi Osman (back) is out for Saturday's contest with the 76ers. This was expected, as things weren't looking so good for his status as of Friday. Forward Dean Wade, guard Dylan Windler, and forward Lamar Stevens could all see more minutes. Windler went 4-for-4 from beyond the arc in Wednesday's game and […]

Elfrid Payton Ruled Out For Saturday

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Pacers. The Knicks have taken the cautious approach with Payton, as he was listed as a game-time call ahead of Thursday's game as well- which he also missed. Derrick Rose will get another start for New York against a […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Will Play Against Pelicans On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs forward LaMarcus Aldridge (wrist) will take the court on Saturday against the Pelicans. Aldridge returned on Wednesday against the Thunder but shot just 3 of 11 in 26 minutes. With San Antonio already down two frontcourt options in Keldon Johnson and Rudy Gay (health and safety protocols), Aldridge should be in line […]

Dylan Larkin Ruled Out For The Weekend

Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin has been ruled out for this weekend's action with an upper-body injury. The Wings will play a back-to-back set against Chicago. Larkin, who has 11 points for the season, is listed as day-to-day, so it looks like he isn't dealing with anything serious. He won't miss many games anyway, […]

Malcolm Subban Earns Second Consecutive Start

Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Malcolm Subban will earn a second consecutive start for Saturday's battle with the Red Wings. The 25-year-old has seen minimal action this season, but he came in for Thursday's clash with Columbus and produced a 26-save shutout in a 2-0 win, so Chicago will ride the hot hand. Subban is 3-1-1 for […]

Cam Reddish Doubtful Against Miami

Atlanta Hawks forward Cam Reddish (Achilles) is doubtful for Sunday's game against Miami. Reddish has missed the last three games with Achilles soreness- and is probably not going to suit up with the All-Star break right around the corner. Tony Snell, who has started in Reddish's absence, has made at least three triples in three […]

Danilo Gallinari Probable, Trae Young Questionable For Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (forearm) is listed as probable, while guard Trae Young (adductor) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat. It's unclear when Gallinari suffered the ailment, though it probably didn't hinder him much, considering that he broke the franchise record for threes in a game. Young's injury seems a […]

Radko Gudas Good To Go On Saturday

Florida Panthers defenseman Radko Gudas (upper body) will return to the lineup for Saturday's clash with the Hurricanes. The hard-hitting blueliner missed one game, which the Panthers won 3-2 with a late comeback against Dallas on Thursday. Gustav Forsling, who picked up an undisclosed injury in the victory, will make room for Gudas. The 30-year-old […]

Davis Bertans To Be Available Against Timberwolves

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans (knee) will make his return to the court after missing Thursday's game due to right knee soreness. Bertans is averaging 11.0 points per game while draining 2.8 treys a night, though he's played less than 30 minutes in each of his last two games. The team could ease him back […]

Sergei Bobrovsky In Panthers Goal For Carolina's Visit

Florida Panthers goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky will take on the Carolina Hurricanes in Saturday's home game. The Russian netminder is 6-2-1 for the season ahead of the contest with a 3.05 goals-against average and a .897 save percentage. Bob has struggled in Florida ever since signing his huge 70 million dollar contract in 2019, but he's […]

Malcolm Brogdon Questionable For Saturday

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Knicks. Brogdon has been experiencing knee soreness and is coming off a 5 of 17 shooting performance on Friday against Boston, so the team may ultimately opt to play it safe with one of their better players ahead of the All-Star break. […]

Anton Khudobin Makes 10th Start Saturday Night

Dallas Stars goaltender Anton Khudobin will earn his 10th start of the season in Saturday's matchup with Tampa Bay. He's looking to improve a 4-4-1 record after ending a five-game losing streak with his second shutout of the season in Wednesday's 3-0 victory over Florida. Khudobin has recorded a solid 2.35 goals-against average for the […]

Andrei Vasilevskiy Faces Stars On Saturday

Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy will start in Saturday's Stanley Cup Finals rematch versus the Dallas Stars. He has just recorded his first shutout of the season in Wednesday's 3-0 victory over Carolina and will look for a 12th win in only his 16th start of the season. Vasilevskiy carries a strong 1.87 goals-against […]

Tristan Jarry Makes 14th Start Of The Season

Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry will record his 14th start of the season in Saturday's road game against the Islanders. He is 2-1-0 in the matchup this season with a 2.35 goals-against average and a .925 save percentage. Jarry had a three-game winning streak snapped by Washington on Thursday, which dropped his record for the […]

Jack Campbell Returns To Action On Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Jack Campbell will make his return from a lower-body injury in Saturday's clash with the Oilers. He has missed over a month of action since starting the year by winning both of his first starts. Campbell registered a 2.00 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage in the outings before getting […]

Mike Smith Looks To Protect Perfect Record Versus Toronto

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mike Smith will put his perfect 6-0-0 record on the line in Saturday's matchup with Toronto. The veteran netminder enters the contest off the back of his second shutout of the year when he stopped 32 pucks in Thursday's 3-0 victory over Vancouver. He has a 1.73 goals-against average for the season […]

Yasmani Grandal Dealing With Right Knee Inflammation

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal (knee) will miss the first two games for the club this spring with right knee inflammation. Manager Tony La Russa said that Grandal twisted his knee running during drills. This doesn't seem to be overly concerning for the two-time All-Star and he should have plenty of time to be […]

Thomas Chabot Continues Hot Streak With Two Assists

Ottawa Senators defenseman Thomas Chabot posted two assists -- both on the power play -- in Saturday's 6-3 loss to Calgary, reaching 14 points for the season. He's notched half of his points in his past five outings, adding 11 shots. Chabot and the Senators got off to an awful start to the season, but […]

Jake Fraley In Contention to Start In Left Field

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jake Fraley is going to be given every opportunity to be the starting left fielder in 2021, at least until Jarred Kelenic is called up. After struggling in limited action in 2020, Fraley focused on his mindset in the offseason, specifically leaning on his faith to stay focused and block out external […]

Brady Tkachuk Nets Ninth Goal Of The Season

Ottawa Senators left wing Brady Tkachuk finished off the scoring in Saturday's 6-3 loss to Calgary. The Senators had a power-play clinic with all of their goals coming with the man advantage. Drake Batherson scored in a fifth consecutive game and added one assist, while Colin White found the net for a second consecutive game. […]

Brian Elliott Posts Second Shutout Of The Year

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Brian Elliott collected his second shutout of the season on Saturday, finishing a 3-0 win over Buffalo with 23 saves. Jack Eichel (lower body) missed his second consecutive game and the Sabres couldn't generate much offense without him. Elliott is now 5-1-0 for the season with a 2.03 goals-against average and a […]

Mikael Backlund Ends Dry Spell With Three-Point Performance

Calgary Flames forward Mikael Backlund stopped an eight-game point drought on Saturday with one goal and two assists in a 6-3 victory over Ottawa. He netted the team's second goal and had one short-handed assist and one even-strength assist to take his points tally for the year to 11. This marks Backlund's second three-point game […]

Nico Hischier Has Two Points In Saturday's Loss

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier factored in both of the team's goals in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Washington, scoring a power-play goal and recording an assist on a Pavel Zacha marker. Zacha scored his sixth goal of the season to take his point-streak to nine games. Hischier was on the ice for only the […]
