  • Seth Jarvis C | CAR

    Hurricanes' Seth Jarvis: Set to miss time

    Jarvis sustained an apparent upper-body injury in Friday's game versus the Panthers that head coach Rod Brind'Amour deemed "not good," and Jarvis is expected to miss some time, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

    Jarvis crashed into the post during overtime and appeared to be favoring his arm as he left the game. He had two assists in the contest and is now at 29 points through 34 appearances. This is a big loss for the Hurricanes, who don't have an extra forward on the roster. Fantasy managers will need to pivot to other options during Jarvis' absence.

  • Bo Horvat C | NYI

    Islanders' Bo Horvat: Not going to Buffalo

    Horvat (lower body) won't be in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Sabres, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

    Horvat will miss his fourth straight game by not going on the brief road trip. The 30-year-old's status hasn't been determined for Tuesday's game versus the Devils, but it wouldn't be surprising if the Islanders let him rest through the holiday break to avoid rushing back.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Tending twine in Utah

    Markstrom will guard the road goal versus the Mammoth on Friday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

    Markstrom has fallen into a timeshare with Jake Allen recently. The 35-year-old Markstrom has gone just 1-4-0 with 18 goals allowed over his last six outings, which is right in line with his poor performance this season. The Mammoth have won three of their last four games, scoring 15 goals in that span.

  • Mammoth's Alex Kerfoot: Back from injured reserve

    Kerfoot (abdomen) was activated from injured reserve Friday.

    Kerfoot is clear to be in the lineup versus the Devils on Friday. He'll likely take on a bottom-six role moving forward, though he may not be in the lineup every game.

  • Jets' Connor Hellebuyck: Slated to start Friday

    Hellebuyck was the first goalie off the ice during Friday's morning skate, indicating he'll be between the road pipes versus the Avalanche, Ryan Boulding of NHL.com reports.

    Hellebuyck has allowed just five goals on 82 shots since returning from arthroscopic knee surgery. However, the Jets' poor offense in that span has limited him to a 1-1-1 record. Friday's matchup is a rough one, as the Avalanche have the best offense in the NHL by a wide margin, which make this a challenging situation for Hellebuyck.

  • Islanders' Mathew Barzal: Slated to play

    Barzal (undisclosed) is expected to be in the lineup Friday versus the Canucks, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

    Barzal was labeled a game-time decision for the second contest in a row, but it looks like he'll be good to go again. The 28-year-old is clearly managing some sort of issue, but it hasn't been bad enough to keep him out of games yet.

  • Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: In goal Friday

    Bussi will guard the road goal versus the Panthers on Friday, David Dwork of The Hockey News reports.

    Bussi has won nine straight outings and 11 out of 12 appearances this season. He's allowed no more than three goals in any of his last seven outings. The Panthers have found a groove recently, scoring 22 goals over their last six games while going 5-1-0 in that span.

  • Capitals' Bogdan Trineyev: Sent to AHL

    Trineyev was loaned to AHL Hershey on Friday.

    Trineyev spent the last two weeks with the Capitals and made his first two NHL appearances during that time. He was held without a point but recorded two blocked shots and a hit while averaging 10:32 of ice time. He should see more consistent playing time in the minors, while Ivan Miroshnichenko was recalled from the AHL on Friday.

  • Capitals' Ivan Miroshnichenko: Called up by Washington

    Miroshnichenko was recalled from AHL Hershey on Friday.

    Miroshnichenko signed a two-year extension with the Capitals in October, but he hasn't yet appeared in a game with the NHL club this year. However, he's recorded four goals, five assists, 21 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 12 appearances in the AHL this year, and he'll provide additional depth for the Capitals after Bogdan Trineyev was sent down Friday.

  • Flyers' Denver Barkey: Recalled by Philadelphia

    Barkey was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley on Friday.

    Barkey hasn't yet made his NHL debut, but he's recorded seven goals, nine assists, 20 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 26 appearances to begin his first season in the AHL. He'll join the Flyers ahead of the holiday break to provide additional depth after defenseman Egor Zamula was sent down Friday.
