Colorado Avalanche defenseman Josh Manson (upper body) is considered day-to-day. The 32-year-old dropped out of the lineup Monday versus Seattle and won't be ready to return Wednesday night against Anaheim. However, Manson isn't expected to be out for long. The former Duck has been offensively anonymous in 2023-24, posting only one assist in 13 games […]

Adam Pelech A Game-Time Call For Monday's Contest

New York Islanders defenseman Adam Pelech (lower body) could be back in action Monday versus Edmonton, with the team regarding him as a game-time decision for the match.

The veteran defenseman later […]

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Travis Sanheim was on fire once more in Friday's matchup against Anaheim, finishing a 6-3 win with three points.

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon (upper body) will make his season debut in Friday's matchup against Buffalo.

Jake McCabe Returning To Lineup, John Klingberg Dealing With Injury

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Jake McCabe (groin) will return to the lineup on Friday against the Calgary Flames. McCabe missed the last six games with a groin injury suffered on October 26.

Tony DeAngelo A Likely Scratch Friday

Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Tony DeAngelo is expected to be healthy scratched for Friday's game against the Florida Panthers. DeAngelo has played in all 13 games for the Canes so far this season, but with Brett Pesce ready to return, it looks like he will be the odd man out. Tony D isn't known for his […]

Washington Capitals defenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk (lower body) will miss his second straight game on Friday against the Devils and presumably another on Saturday night against the New York Islanders after not traveling with the club for the two-game road trip.

Calen Addison Traded To San Jose

The San Jose Sharks acquired defenseman Calen Addison from the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday. The return is a 2026 fifth-round pick and depth prospect Adam Raska, which seems light given Addison's prospect pedigree and the fact he was on Minnesota's top powerplay. He did struggle at five-on-five and wasn't playing many minutes, so the trade […]

Rasmus Dahlin Contributes With Goal In Loss

Buffalo Sabres defenseman Rasmus Dahlin scored his third goal of the season in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss against the Hurricanes. The 23-year-old leveled the game at two goals as he beat Hurricanes goaltender Antti Raanta with a shot from the faceoff circle at the midway point of the third period. Dahlin is up to three […]
