Winnipeg Jets center Adam Lowry (rest) is set to return to the lineup for Wednesday's regular-season finale against the Anaheim Ducks. The veteran forward was rested on Sunday against the Edmonton Oilers. Lowry has had another solid campaign with the Jets, scoring 30-plus points for a third consecutive year. He is sitting on a career-high 16 goals and 18 assists and has averaged nearly two hits per game through 72 appearances. On Wednesday, Lowry will work in his usual spot on the third line, where he will be joined by Brandon Tanev and Mason Appleton.

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Josh Morrissey (rest) will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Anaheim Ducks. Winnipeg rested its No. 1 defenseman for Sunday's matchup with the Edmonton Oilers, but he will be back in action for the regular-season finale. Morrissey has registered a third consecutive campaign with 60-plus points, notching 14 goals and 47 assists in 79 appearances. Additionally, he has logged 110 blocks, marking his fourth consecutive season with at least 100 blocked shots. The Jets defense will also have Neal Pionk (rest) back for Wednesday's game. Ville Heinola, Haydn Fleury, and Colin Miller will be healthy scratches after playing against Edmonton.

Winnipeg Jets forward Gabriel Vilardi (upper body) will remain out for Wednesday's regular-season finale against the Anaheim Ducks. The 25-year-old is nearing his return and is considered day-to-day, but his comeback won't come before the Jets start their postseason campaign. Vilardi, who has not been in the lineup since March 23, ends the regular season with 61 points (27 goals, 34 assists) in 71 games. He posted career-highs in all the major offensive categories. We will likely see Vilardi back on the top line once he is ready to return, although Alex Iafallo has done an excellent job as his replacement, matching a season high with a four-game point streak ahead of Wednesday's contest.

Dallas Stars forward Tyler Seguin (hip) is expected to rejoin the lineup for Wednesday's regular-season finale against the Nashville Predators. He has been activated from Long-Term Injured Reserve and is officially considered a game-time decision. Seguin has been out of action since Dec. 1. He underwent hip surgery a few days after his last appearance. The veteran had a productive start to the year, notching 20 points (nine goals, 11 assists) in 19 games. He will be a valuable addition for the Stars' playoff run, but the team will also give Seguin a bit of regular-season action to shake off some rust.

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang (heart) will not participate in Thursday's season finale against the Washington Capitals following a medical procedure. On Wednesday, the team announced that Letang had undergone surgery to repair a small hole in his heart and will be sidelined for 4-6 weeks. The veteran blue-liner has previously missed time in his career due to strokes related to the hole in his heart. He is expected to make a full recovery from the surgery. It was a disappointing campaign for Letang, who finished with 30 points (nine goals, 21 assists) in 74 appearances, marking his lowest scoring total since 2013-14 when he played in only 37 games.

Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid (rest) will be in the lineup on Wednesday against the San Jose Sharks. The three-time MVP was rested on Monday against the Los Angeles Kings but will be brought back into the mix for Edmonton's regular-season finale. McDavid is expected to be joined by Jeff Skinner and Connor Brown on the first line. In two contests against the Sharks this season, McDavid has registered a whopping seven points, all via assists. Since the international break, he has finished scoreless only once in 17 appearances, and McDavid will aim to reach the 100-point plateau on Wednesday night. In 66 games this season, he has logged 26 goals and 73 assists.

Minnesota Wild right wing Matt Boldy tallied two points to lead Minnesota to a 3-2 overtime victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday evening. Boldy would tally the primary assist on Joel Eriksson Ek's game-tying goal with just 20 seconds left in the third frame to force overtime. Then, in overtime, Boldy would score the game-winner to push Minnesota over the top. This victory clinched their spot as the top wild card in the Western Conference and will set them up for a first-round matchup against the Vegas Golden Knights. In 82 games this season, Boldy scored 27 goals and added 46 assists. The 24-year-old logged a career-high 271 shots on goal with 52 hits and 69 blocked shots.

St. Louis Blues left wing Pavel Buchnevich tallied three points during their 6-1 victory over the Utah Hockey Club on Tuesday evening. Buchnevich did all of his damage in the opening frame. He first tallied the secondary assist on Brayden Schenn's goal. Later, he would find the back of the net on a snapshot, which would eventually serve as the game-winner. He would then add his second helper, this time a secondary assist on Jimmy Snuggerud's power-play goal. This was Buchnevich's second three-point outing over his last three contests. Over his last eight contests, Buchnevich has found the back of the net six times and added four helpers. He will look to carry this momentum into the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Tampa Bay Lightning center Brayden Point tallied three points during their 5-1 victory over the Florida Panthers on Tuesday evening. In the opening frame, Point would score his 42nd goal of the campaign and tally the primary assist on Connor Geekie's eighth goal of the season. Later in the second period, Point would add the secondary assist on Nikita Kucherov's 37th goal of the regular season. This three-point outing snapped his three-game scoreless streak. Before his minor slump, Point scored nine goals and added four helpers over his last nine contests. Through 76 games this season, the 29-year-old has found the back of the net 42 times and added 40 helpers. This was Point's third-straight campaign scoring at least 40 goals. He will look to stay hot in game No. 82 on Thursday against the Rangers.

Columbus Blue Jackets rookie goaltender Jet Greaves stopped all 29 shots he saw en route to defeating the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday evening. This was a "must-win" game for the Blue Jackets to keep them alive in the playoff race. Greaves was able to lead the way as Columbus was able to win their fifth-straight contest. During Greaves' impressive four-game winning streak, he has posted two shutouts and allowed just three total goals. He has held an incredible .976 save percentage with a near-perfect 0.76 GAA. Before this impressive late-season finish, Greaves held a modest 3.02 GAA with a .894 save percentage over his last five NHL starts. Fantasy managers should expect Greaves to get the nod in their regular-season finale on Thursday against the New York Islanders.

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz stopped all 35 shots he saw on Tuesday evening during his victory against the Buffalo Sabres. The Sabres held the slight advantage in the shot total, but Stolarz was able to lead the way. Steven Lorentz's strike in the second frame would serve as the game-winner. This was Stolarz's fourth shutout of the season. This outing also extended Stolarz's winning streak to an impressive eight games. During this stretch, Stolarz has posted a stellar .950 save percentage with a 1.37 GAA. Even though the 31-year-old netminder has missed time, he has been very productive when on the ice. Fantasy managers should expect Joseph Woll to get the nod during their regular-season finale on Thursday against Detroit.

New Jersey Devils left wing Timo Meier tallied three points during their 5-4 overtime victory over the Boston Bruins on Tuesday evening. Meier opened the scoring in the first period on a slap shot. In the second, he would tally the secondary assist on Stefan Noesen's power-play goal. Then, in overtime, Meier would add his second secondary assist on Brian Dumoulin's game-winner. Over his last five games, Meier has been productive on the scoresheet, tallying six points (four goals). Before this recent surge, the 28-year-old was in a bit of a slump, tallying just two points (all goals) over his last seven contests. Through 80 games this season, Meier has found the back of the net 26 times and added 27 helpers. He is a strong option in DFS on Wednesday evening, facing the Detroit Red Wings.

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jake Middleton (upper body) has been cleared to return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Anaheim Ducks. He has recovered from an upper-body injury, which sidelined Middleton for four games. The 29-year-old has scored a career-high eight goals this season while notching 20 points, 155 blocks, and 98 hits across 66 appearances. Minnesota's defense will also have Jared Spurgeon (neck) back on Tuesday, meaning Declan Chisholm and Cameron Crotty will exit the lineup. The Wild are expected to rely significantly on their top-four group at the back Tuesday, as the team requires just one more point to clinch a postseason berth.

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon (neck) will be in the lineup on Tuesday against the Anaheim Ducks. The Wild captain was unable to play on Saturday against the Vancouver Canucks after taking a puck to the throat the previous night in a matchup versus the Calgary Flames. However, he has been cleared for Tuesday's potential playoff clincher. Spurgeon brings a wealth of experience and quality at both ends to the lineup. He has recorded 32 points (seven goals, 25 assists), 106 shots, 116 blocks, and 53 hits in 65 contests this season.
