NHL Player News

Brossoit will start Wednesday's home game against the Predators, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.

Brossoit has made four starts since being called up from AHL San Diego, and he's gone 4-0-0 with a 3.25 GAA and .877 save percentage. He'll draw a second consecutive start Wednesday as the Ducks ride his hot hand.

Dubois scored a goal and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Senators.

Dubois has earned three points, four shots on net and a plus-5 rating over his last two games. The 28-year-old forward is up to three goals, seven assists, 18 shots on net, 10 hits and a plus-10 rating over 11 appearances. It's tough to count on any single Capitals forward for steady offense, but the team's overall play has made most members of the top nine good enough to help in fantasy.

Matheson (lower body) will travel with the Canadiens ahead of Thursday's road game against Boston, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Matheson has been sidelined since late October due to his lower-body injury, and he was expected to miss approximately two weeks. He was a full participant in Tuesday's morning skate, and although he was held out for the Canadiens' matchup against the Wild, he could return to action a few days later. The 32-year-old has recorded a goal, three assists, 13 blocked shots, six PIM and five hits while averaging 23:45 of ice time across eight appearances to begin the regular season.

Fowler will start Thursday's road game against Boston, Stu Cowan of The Montreal Gazette reports.

Following a seven-game winning streak to close out October, Fowler has been slightly more inconsistent in early November, going 1-0-2 with a 2.94 GAA and .909 save percentage across his three outings to begin the month. However, he's slated to draw a third consecutive start Thursday in what will be a tough matchup against the Bruins, who rank fifth in the league with 3.72 goals per game this year.

Ristolainen (hand) is expected to play Wednesday in Edmonton, per Jackie Spiegel of The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Ristolainen still needs to be activated off injured reserve before his return is certain. If Ristolainen does play, then David Jiricek will probably exit the lineup as a healthy scratch. The 32-year-old Ristolainen has a goal, seven hits and seven blocks in four appearances in 2026-27.

Myatovic was reassigned to AHL San Diego on Wednesday.

Myatovic has no points, four hits and one block in four appearances with Anaheim in 2026-27. He also has five goals and eight points in 11 outings with San Diego this campaign.

Head coach Travis Green said Wednesday that he expects Cousins (upper body) to miss at least a week to 10 days, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

Cousins took a hard hit from Jakob Chychrun during Tuesday's game against the Capitals and was briefly knocked out. The Senators indicated after the game that Cousins wasn't doing well, and the 33-year-old is facing a multi-game absence. Sammy Blais is a candidate to see increased playing time while Cousins is sidelined.

Korpisalo was the first goalie off the ice during Wednesday's morning skate, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports, indicating that he'll draw the road start against Calgary.

Korpisalo missed over a month to begin the 2026-27 campaign due to his foot injury, but he made his regular-season debut Saturday against the Kraken and turned aside 25 of 28 shots (.893 save percentage) in a 4-3 road victory. He'll draw the start for the second time in the Rangers' last three games Wednesday and should have the opportunity to compete for a role after Dylan Garand handled primary goaltending duties in recent weeks.

Taylor was recalled from AHL Texas on Wednesday, Robert Tiffin of NHL.com reports.

Taylor was sent to the AHL on Monday, but he'll be called back up by Dallas after appearing in a game for Texas on Tuesday. The 24-year-old has made just three NHL appearances to begin the regular season, and he's been held scoreless with two hits and two blocked shots while averaging 10:06 of ice time.

MacEwen (wrist) didn't take part in Wednesday's practice, per Mark Masters of TSN.

MacEwen sustained the injury during Tuesday's game against Colorado. He has two goals, four points, 26 PIM and 35 hits in 14 appearances in 2026-27. If MacEwen can't play Thursday versus Minnesota, then Toronto would probably need to summon a player from the minors. The Maple Leafs are down to 11 healthy forwards on the NHL roster.
