Yan Kuznetsov CGY D
Flames' Yan Kuznetsov: Unavailable Monday
25m agoKuznetsov (upper body) won't play against Detroit on Monday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Kuznetsov is day-to-day after sustaining the injury in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Islanders. He has earned four goals, 12 points, 58 shots on net, 89 blocked shots and 75 hits across 52 appearances this season. Due to Kuznetsov's absence, Hunter Brzustewicz will draw into Monday's lineup against the Red Wings.

Scott Wedgewood COL G
Avalanche's Scott Wedgewood: Gets starting nod Monday
38m agoWedgewood will tend the twine at home versus the Penguins on Monday, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports.
Wedgewood is riding a five-game winning streak during which he is sporting a 1.26 GAA and .954 save percentage. The Ontario native has featured in four of the Avs' last six outings, seemingly relegating Mackenzie Blackwood to the No. 2 role. Looking ahead, Colorado will likely continue to ride the hot hand, so look for Wedgewood to hold onto the starting gig as long as he continues to perform.

Erik Gudbranson CLB D
Blue Jackets' Erik Gudbranson: Game-time call Tuesday
1h agoGudbranson (upper body) will be a game-time decision versus Carolina on Tuesday, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Gudbranson has been out of action for the Jackets' last three contests due to his upper-body injury. The 34-year-old blueliner's return is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy managers, considering he is currently mired in an 11-game pointless streak. Without an offensive upside, Gudbranson doesn't offer enough category coverage to be more than a mid-range fantasy option.

Shayne Gostisbehere CAR D
Hurricanes' Shayne Gostisbehere: Won't play Tuesday
1h agoGostisbehere (lower body) won't play against Columbus on Tuesday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Gostisbehere will miss his fifth straight game, and it's unclear if he will be ready to play against Pittsburgh on Wednesday. Still, head coach Rod Brind'Amour told reporters Monday that Gostisbehere is "tending closer" to a potential return. The 32-year-old Gostisbehere has 11 goals, 43 points, 98 shots on net and 50 blocked shots in 45 appearances this season.

Kings' Darcy Kuemper: First goalie off Monday
1h agoKuemper was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports, indicating that he'll draw the home start against the Rangers.
Kuemper hasn't been particularly sharp over the past month and a half, as he's gone 2-3-1 with a 3.50 GAA and .866 save percentage over six appearances since the start of February. The Rangers are generating 2.82 goals per game this year, which is the eighth-worst mark in the NHL.

Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: Doesn't practice Monday
1h agoSvechnikov didn't participate in Monday's practice session due to an undisclosed issue, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Although head coach Rod Brind'Amour said after Monday's practice that Svechnikov "should be alright," it's not yet clear whether the 25-year-old will be able to suit up in Columbus on Tuesday or at home against the Penguins on Wednesday. Svechnikov has recorded points in eight of 12 appearances since the start of February, logging four goals, eight assists, 26 hits and 12 PIM while averaging 17:45 of ice time across that span.

Canadiens' Nick Suzuki: Records two points Sunday
3h agoSuzuki had a goal on three shots and added an assist in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks.
Suzuki has scored in back-to-back games for the second time this month, and the star playmaker is enjoying a strong run of form since the Olympic break. The 26-year-old is up to 13 points (five goals, eight assists) in just nine appearances since the league resumed in late February. For the season, Suzuki is up to 78 points (23 goals, 55 helpers) in 66 contests, with nearly half of those points (35) coming in the power play.

Morgan Barron WPG C
Jets' Morgan Barron: Two helpers against Blues
3h agoBarron picked up two assists in Sunday's 3-2 win over St. Louis.
The bottom-six forward produced his first multi-point performance since Oct. 13, as he had a hand in tallies by Haydn Fleury in the first period and Kyle Connor in the third. Barron has found a bit of an offensive spark in March, and through eight games this month he's delivered three goals and five points along with 17 hits, 11 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating.
-
Leo Carlsson ANA C
Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Scores twice Sunday
3h agoCarlsson scored two goals on five shots and added an assist in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Canadiens.
Carlsson, who snapped a four-game goalless skid with this performance, broke the deadlock for the Ducks at the 7:46 mark of the first period with a snap shot and later doubled the team's tally just 27 seconds into the second frame. Carlsson also stepped up late in the second frame to assist Troy Terry's goal, his first since Jan. 2 in his return to the lineup. Carlsson has appeared in every game for the Ducks since the league resumed following the Olympics break and is up to 11 points (five goals, six assists) over his last 11 outings, a span in which he's also racked up a minus-2 rating and 35 shots on goal.
-
Evgeni Malkin PIT C
Penguins' Evgeni Malkin: Eligible to play Monday
4h agoMalkin has served his five-game suspension and will be available to face Colorado on Monday.
Malkin is currently mired in a 10-game goal drought dating back to Jan. 25 versus the Canucks. The veteran forward has still been shooting the puck during his slump, generating 31 shots along with seven helpers. With Malkin back in the lineup, he figures to move back into a top-six role and rejoin the No. 1 power-play unit.
-
Vinnie Hinostroza FLA C
Panthers' Vinnie Hinostroza: Buries goal in loss
11h agoHinostroza scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Kraken.
Hinostroza provided a quick response to Berkly Catton's goal in the middle of the first period, but the Panthers weren't able to keep pace after that. With three points over three games since joining the Panthers, Hinostroza is making a good case for keeping his fourth-line spot. He's at five goals, 13 points, 49 shots on net, 32 hits and a minus-7 rating over 51 appearances between Florida and Minnesota this season.
-
Eetu Luostarinen FLA C
Panthers' Eetu Luostarinen: Tallies late in loss
11h agoLuostarinen scored a goal on four shots in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Kraken.
Luostarinen's goal was far too late to matter, coming at 19:58 of the third period. The 27-year-old snapped a nine-game point drought with the tally. He had just eight shots on net, 10 hits and seven blocked shots in that span despite playing in at least a middle-six role most of the time. Luostarinen has eight goals, 25 points, 87 shots on net, 108 hits, 45 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 58 appearances, surpassing his total of 24 points from 80 regular-season outings last year.

Islanders' Max Shabanov: Considered day-to-day
2h agoShabanov didn't participate in Monday's practice session and is considered day-to-day due to a lower-body injury.
Shabanov hasn't been a mainstay in the Islanders' lineup over the past few weeks, but he's now dealing with an injury, and it's unclear whether he'll be an option for Tuesday's game in Toronto. He's made 15 appearances since the start of the calendar year, recording four assists, six hits and six blocked shots while averaging 13:10 of ice time.
-
Michael Brandsegg-Nygard DET RW
Red Wings' Michael Brandsegg-Nygard: Remains out for Monday's game
2h agoBrandsegg-Nygard (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Calgary, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Brandsegg-Nygard remains day-to-day due to an undisclosed issue, and he'll be unavailable for a second consecutive matchup. Over 12 appearances with the Red Wings this year, he's recorded an assist, 36 hits, three blocked shots and two PIM while averaging 12:17 of ice time.

Fabian Zetterlund OTT LW
Senators' Fabian Zetterlund: Two-point effort Sunday
2h agoZetterlund scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Sharks.
Both points came in the second period, helping the Senators turn around an early 2-1 deficit. Zetterlund snapped a 13-game goal drought with his tally, as his bottom-six role hasn't afforded him many offensive opportunities of late. On the season, the 26-year-old winger has 13 goals and 26 points in 66 games with 124 hits, 106 shots on net and a minus-2 rating.
-
Brady Tkachuk OTT LW
Senators' Brady Tkachuk: Two points against Sharks
2h agoTkachuk produced a goal and an assist in Sunday's 7-4 win over San Jose.
Both points came in the third period, including an empty-netter that gave Tkachuk his 18th goal of the season. It was the 26-year-old winger's first multi-point performance since Jan. 31, but he's failed to get onto the scoresheet only three times in 12 games since then. Through 46 contests on the season, Tkachuk has compiled 46 points, 176 shots on net, 118 hits, 48 PIM and a minus-1 rating.

Shakir Mukhamadullin SJ D
Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Two helpers in Ottawa
2h agoMukhamadullin pocketed two assists in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Senators.
The 2020 first-round pick picked up his first points in March with his first multi-point performance since the first game of the season, Oct. 9 against the Golden Knights. Mukhamadullin has yet to get much of a chance to show his offensive skill in the NHL, and through 35 games this season the 24-year-old blueliner has four goals and 10 points along with 49 blocked shots, 33 shots on net, 21 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-0 rating.
-

2h agoFerraro scored a goal and added an assist in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Senators.
Both points came in the first period, but Ferraro technically scored another goal in the frame -- it was just for Ottawa, as he tipped a Drake Batherson centering pass by a startled Laurent Brossoit for the home team's first tally. Ferraro has officially found the back of the net in back-to-back games, and on the season he's up to six goals and 18 points in 65 games with 121 blocked shots, 108 hits, 76 shots on net, 31 PIM and a plus-2 rating -- the fifth straight season in which the 27-year-old blueliner has reached triple digits in both hits and blocks.

The stay-at-home defenseman produced his first points of the season in his 25th game, while his first-period goal marked the first time he'd lit the lamp in the NHL since Dec. 19, 2023 -- coincidentally, also against St. Louis as part of a two-point performance. Fleury has been getting a regular shift in March after Winnipeg dealt away Logan Stanley and Luke Schenn at the trade deadline, and over eight games this month he's produced 17 hits, nine blocked shots, eight shots on net and a minus-3 rating.
