Teravainen scored a power-play goal, added two PIM and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Senators.

Teravainen is riding a six-game point streak (three goals, six assists). The winger has earned three of those nine points on the power play. For the season, the 30-year-old is up to 15 goals, 49 points (20 on the power play), 93 shots on net and a minus-14 rating over 62 outings in a top-six role.

The Panthers acquired Sturm and a seventh-round pick in 2027 from San Jose on Thursday in exchange for a 2026 fourth-round pick.

Sturm will provide the Panthers with some depth up front as they currently have only 12 healthy forwards. Sturm had seven goals and six assists in 47 games with the Sharks this season, including two goals in his last four appearances.

Donato scored a goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Senators.

Donato's point streak is up to six games (four goals, five assists) following his first-period tally Wednesday. The 28-year-old is up to 23 goals, 46 points, 136 shots on net, 94 hits, 30 PIM and a minus-9 rating over 60 appearances. Fantasy managers may still want to wait through at least Friday's trade deadline to see if Donato gets dealt or not -- it's unlikely he'll be able to replicate his current scoring pace if he's stuck in a smaller role on a contender. If he stays put, he'll look to extend his streak versus Utah on Friday.

Per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times, Dickinson (ankle) may return to action as early as next week, according to coach Anders Sorensen.

Dickinson was injured Feb. 5 against the Oilers and so far has missed nine games. Sorensen stated that Dickinson could return at some point during the Blackhawks' upcoming four-game road trip which begins Saturday in Nashville. Dickinson has seven goals, nine assists, 93 hits and 49 blocked shots over 53 games this season.

Carrick scored a goal, added two hits and logged five PIM in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Capitals.

Carrick made his biggest impacts in the second period, scoring to put the Rangers ahead 2-1 before dropping the mitts with Brandon Duhaime a few minutes later. The 33-year-old Carrick has a goal and two assists during his current three-game point streak, which has come from a bottom-six role. He's at 18 points -- one off his career high -- while adding 61 shots on net, 112 hits, 50 PIM and a plus-4 rating across 62 appearances this season.

Frank notched a power-play assist and four PIM in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Rangers.

A late scoring change gave Frank the second helper on Alex Ovechkin's game-tying goal in the third period. After playing primarily on the third line, the Capitals swapped Frank and Taylor Raddysh's spots in the lineup for Wednesday's contest. Frank has managed seven points, 19 shots on net, 10 hits, 11 blocked shots, six PIM and a plus-6 rating over 21 appearances this season. The 27-year-old winger is likely to remain in a bottom-six role unless the Capitals make significant additions at forward prior to Friday's trade deadline.

Helenius was reassigned to AHL Ontario on Thursday, Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty reports.

Helenius was recalled Wednesday and saw 6:46 of ice time with one hit versus St. Louis. Overall, the 22-year-old has one goal and two assists with 81 hits over 28 games with the Kings this season. Helenius has two goals, four assists and 38 PIM over 20 AHL appearances this year.

Kupari entered the NHL's concussion protocol following his injury against the Islanders on Tuesday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

Kupari shouldn't be expected to play during the rest of the Jets' road trip considering they play three games over the next four days. In his 58 appearances this season, the 24-year-old center recorded five goals, three assists and 52 shots in 58 outings. Without Kupari in the lineup, David Gustafsson figures to get back into action after being a healthy scratch the previous two games.

Pitlick inked a one-year, two-way contract with Boston on Thursday.

The contract is for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign. Pitlick has played this season at AHL Providence, tallying 16 goals and adding 17 assists over 43 games. He has played 420 regular-season games at the NHL level during his career, finding the back of the net on 56 occasions while adding 53 assists.

Norris produced a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over Chicago.

It's the first points in three games for Norris since he returned from an upper-body injury, and Wednesday's tally was his 20th of the season -- the second time in his career he's reached that mark. The 25-year-old center has had trouble staying in the lineup so far in 2025 -- he's missed eight of the Senators' last 14 games -- but when he's been on the ice, he's been productive. Over his last 13 appearances dating back to Jan. 11, Norris has delivered six goals and 11 points with 33 hits and a plus-6 rating.
