Blue Jackets' Boone Jenner: Scores game-winner
Jenner scored a goal and added two hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Panthers.
Jenner's tally at 1:41 of the third period stood as the game-winner. He had missed the Blue Jackets' previous contest due to a lower-body injury, and he had gone 13 games before that without a goal. Jenner has nine goals, 28 points, 95 shots on net, 100 hits and 45 blocked shots over 46 appearances this season, filling a versatile role for Columbus.

Oilers' Mattias Janmark: Done for season
Janmark (undisclosed) underwent season-ending surgery, per Mark Spector of Sportsnet on Friday.
Janmark was injured in the first period Feb. 25 in Anaheim and did not return. He managed one goal and seven assists in 43 games with the Oilers this season. He is expected to be healthy for the start of training camp in September.

Avalanche's Nicolas Roy: Playing against Stars
Roy (not injury related) is expected to make his Colorado debut against Dallas on Friday, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.
Roy has scored just one goal in his last 23 outings while chipping in five assists and 17 shots. If the 29-year-old forward is going to offer Colorado some depth scoring, he is going to need to shoot the puck more. While Roy shouldn't be expected to serve in a power-play capacity, he could see minutes on the penalty kill.

Panthers' Vinnie Hinostroza: Headed for Sunshine State
Hinostroza is being traded to the Panthers from the Wild for future considerations Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Hinostroza became expendable when the Wild brought in Nick Foligno, also for future considerations. In 48 games this year, the 31-year-old Hinostroza has generated three goals, seven helpers and 46 shots while averaging just 10:18 of ice time. Fantasy managers should expect Hinostroza to fill a similar role with the Cats, making him a relative non-factor in fantasy contests.

Teuvo Teravainen C | CHI
Blackhawks' Teuvo Teravainen: Ready to rock
Teravainen (undisclosed) will be in the lineup Friday against the Canucks, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Teravainen was thought to be questionable after he tweaked a pre-existing injury at practice Thursday, but he has been cleared to play. Teravainen has 13 goals and 15 helpers in 54 contests this season, including three goals in his last two appearances.

Evgeni Malkin C | PIT
Penguins' Evgeni Malkin: Facing suspension
Malkin will have a hearing with the Department of Player Safety for slashing Buffalo's Rasmus Dahlin on Thursday.
At minimum, Malkin should be expected to miss at least one game, though it could certainly be longer. The veteran center was ejected from Thursday's contest, and Dahlin doesn't seem to have suffered any long-term injury, both of which could be factors in the league's decision. Regardless, Pittsburgh will likely have to face the Flyers on Saturday without its two biggest stars, Malkin and Sidney Crosby (lower body).

Brett Harrison C | BOS
Flyers' Brett Harrison: Traded to Philadelphia
Harrison and Jackson Edward were traded to the Flyers from the Bruins on Friday in exchange for Alexis Gendron and Massimo Rizzo.
Harrison will report to AHL Lehigh Valley. The 22-year-old was selected in the third round of the 2021 NHL Draft. He had eight goals and 17 points in 46 AHL games with Providence before the trade.

Nicolas Roy C | COL
Avalanche's Nicolas Roy: Status uncertain for Friday's game
The Avalanche hope to have Roy meet them in Dallas ahead of Friday's game against the Stars, but his status is in question due to his immigration paperwork, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.
Roy was traded to the Avalanche from the Maple Leafs on Thursday in exchange for a 2027 conditional first-round pick and a 2026 conditional fifth-round pick, but it's unclear whether he'll be able to make his team debut a day later. Roy made 59 appearances for Toronto to begin the year, recording five goals, 15 assists, 61 hits, 32 blocked shots and 10 PIM while averaging 14:45 of ice time.
