NHL Player News

Haight was recalled from AHL Iowa on Monday, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.

Haight hasn't earned a point in two NHL appearances this season while posting two hits and a minus-2 rating. He will provide Minnesota with some forward depth during the team's upcoming four-game road trip, which begins against Edmonton on Tuesday.

Kaskimaki was recalled from AHL Springfield on Monday.

Kaskimaki hasn't yet made his NHL debut, but he could have a chance to suit up for the Blues in the near future since Jimmy Snuggerud (wrist) and Alexei Toropchenko (leg) are slated to miss time. Whether Kaskimaki suits up Monday against Anaheim will likely depend on whether Pius Suter (lower body), who missed Saturday's game against the Mammoth, is cleared to play. Over 16 appearances with the Thunderbirds to begin the year, Kaskimaki has recorded four goals, three assists and a minus-5 rating.

Bourque scored a goal on two shots, added three hits and went plus-2 in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Senators.

Bourque has chipped in two goals and an assist over his last six games. The 23-year-old forward continues to be a bit sheltered in a bottom-six role, but that's a product of the Stars having a lot of other players rolling all at once. Bourque has logged four goals, nine points, 42 shots on net, 15 hits and a minus-4 rating through 26 appearances this season.

Johnston scored three goals, including two on the power play, and added an assist in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Senators.

Johnston was involved in the Stars' last four goals in this game. The 22-year-old is on a big surge with five goals and four assists over his last four contests, which should put him in contention for weekly honors. Johnston is up to 16 goals, 14 helpers, 18 power-play points, 75 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 26 appearances. He's well on his way to a career year across the board and has already set a new high mark in power-play goals with 12.

Cootes scored twice in WHL Seattle's 5-3 loss to Victoria on Sunday.

Cootes has four goals and two assists over his last four contests. He's up to nine goals and 21 points through 14 outings at the WHL level this season. The Thunderbirds' captain has plenty of talent to elevate his scoring totals into the upper tier of the WHL even after spending some time in the NHL at the start of the campaign.

Pilon registered three assists in AHL Belleville's 6-4 loss to Providence on Sunday.

Pilon, who is captaining Belleville this season, had gone five games without a point prior to Sunday. The AHL veteran has a goal and eight helpers through 15 appearances this season. He has yet to record a 50-point campaign in the AHL, and Pilon hasn't seen NHL action since the 2021-22 campaign, which makes it unlikely he'll see a call-up for the Senators this year.

Greig (undisclosed) is slated to play against Dallas on Sunday.

After missing the last five games, Greig will occupy a fourth-line role against the Stars on Sunday. He has provided two goals, six assists, 30 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and 25 hits across 19 appearances this season. With Greig ready to return, Hayden Hodgson will be a healthy scratch.

Teravainen (undisclosed) took warmups and will play Sunday against the Ducks, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Teravainen didn't take part in Saturday's practice and his status for Sunday was in doubt, but he will suit up against the Ducks. The 31-year-old has six goals and 10 assists in 24 games this season with the Blackhawks. He'll skate in a top-six winger spot on a line with Frank Nazar and Tyler Bertuzzi.

Staal (illness) is set to return to the lineup Sunday against the Flames, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Staal has missed the last three games, marking his first three absences of the season. Prior to his departure from the lineup, the 37-year-old had four goals in the last three games and seven goals through 21 games overall. Staal will likely center Carolina's third line Sunday against the Flames.

Broz was re-assigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton by the Penguins, the team announced Sunday.

Broz made his NHL debut Nov. 26 during his stint with the Penguins, recording two shots on goal in 11:30 of ice time. He'll head back to the AHL along with Danton Heinen, which likely means that the Penguins expect to get back one of their injured forwards. The 23-year-old Broz has 13 points (eight goals, five assists) in 18 games at the AHL level.
