  • Kings' Samuel Helenius: Up from AHL

    Helenius was summoned by the Kings on Wednesday, per Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty.

    Helenius has a goal, three points and 14 PIM in 27 appearances with Los Angeles in 2024-25. He's also recorded two goals, six points and 38 PIM across 20 outings with AHL Ontario.

  • Brock Nelson C | COL

    Islanders' Brock Nelson: Two points in win

    Nelson recorded an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Jets.

    Nelson has been on a tear since the league resumed play following the 4 Nations break, tallying eight points across his last six games (three goals, five assists) and failing to crack the scoresheet just once. Nelson also has 15 shots, five hits and four blocked shots in that span.

  • Morgan Frost C | CGY

    Flames' Morgan Frost: Two helpers against former club

    Frost collected two assists, one on the power play, in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

    Facing the team that traded him at the end of January for the first time, Frost delivered his first multi-point performance as a member of the Flames. The 2017 first-round pick has just two goals and five points in 11 appearances for Calgary, but he's getting a look on the first power-play unit, and two of those helpers have come with the man advantage.

  • Nazem Kadri C | COL

    Flames' Nazem Kadri: Two-point effort in win

    Kadri scored a goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

    After lighting the lamp in the first period, Kadri fed Matthew Coronato for an empty-netter late in the third. Kadri has been on a roll since the beginning of February, and over his last 11 appearances, the veteran center has collected five goals and 12 points.

  • Connor Zary C | CGY

    Flames' Connor Zary: Strikes twice in Philadelphia

    Zary scored two goals in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

    The 23-year-old lit the lamp twice in less than two minutes during the first period as Calgary raced out to an early 3-0 lead. It was the first multi-goal performance of Zary's career, and the points were his first in six games since returning from a lower-body injury after the 4 Nations Face-Off break. On the season, he's produced 12 goals and 24 points over 46 appearances.

  • Bruins' Georgi Merkulov: Sent to minors

    Merkulov was reassigned to AHL Providence on Wednesday, per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe.

    Merkulov has one assist across six appearances with Boston in 2024-25. The 24-year-old also has 13 goals and 44 points over 47 outings with Providence.

  • Bruins' Patrick Brown: Up from minors

    Brown was called up by Boston on Wednesday, per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe.

    Brown has 16 goals and 44 points in 52 outings with AHL Providence in 2024-25. Although the 32-year-old is an offensive force in the minors, Brown shouldn't be expected to serve in more than a bottom-six capacity, if he plays for Boston at all. He has 10 goals and 25 points across 151 career regular-season appearances in the NHL.

  • Predators' Mark Jankowski: Lights lamp in return

    Jankowski scored his fourth goal of the season in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.

    Making his return from a four-game absence due to an upper-body injury, Jankowski flipped home an empty-netter to cap the big victory. The 30-year-old checking-line forward hadn't tickled twine, or even recorded a point, since Dec. 27, but if he can stay healthy he should have a regular spot in Nashville's bottom six for the rest of the season.

  • Bruins' Vinni Lettieri: Back in NHL

    Lettieri was called up by Boston on Wednesday, per Kevin Paul Dupont of The Boston Globe.

    This is the fourth consecutive day that the Bruins have either recalled Lettieri from AHL Providence or returned him to the minors. He has two goals and 19 hits in eight appearances with Boston in 2024-25. Lettieri has also contributed 20 goals and 48 points over 46 outings with Providence.

  • Predators' Steven Stamkos: Breaks out of slump Tuesday

    Stamkos scored a goal and added two assists in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.

    A 13-game point drought for Stamkos got erased midway through the first period when he helped set up a Ryan O'Reilly tally. The 35-year-old Stamkos then found the back of the net himself in the second before having a hand in O'Reilly's second goal of the night in the final frame. Stamkos' first season in Nashville has not gone according to plan, and the former Lightning star has a meager 18 goals and 36 points in 61 appearances with a minus-21 rating. His streak of three straight seasons with more than 30 goals and 80 points will come to an end in 2024-25, but Stamkos still has time to put together a strong finish to the campaign.
