  • Lightning's Darren Raddysh: Goal scoring extends into playoffs

    Raddysh scored a power-play goal in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Canadiens in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round on Sunday.

    Raddysh continues to channel his best Al MacInnis with his hard shots from the point. Teammate Victor Hedman (personal) remains out, and Charle-Edouard D'Astous (undisclosed) was unable to return to Game 1 after a hard hit in the second period. Raddysh will remain the Bolts' lead actor from the back end in Game 2 on Tuesday.

  • Lightning's Charle-Edouard D'Astous: Status in question going forward

    D'Astous (undisclosed) exited Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to Montreal in Game 1 and did not return.

    D'Astous left the game after being hit by Josh Anderson, who received a minor penalty for charging on the play. There was no update on the 27-year-old D'Astous' status after the game. If the defenseman is sidelined for Game 2 on Tuesday, Declan Carlile will probably draw into the lineup in a third-pairing capacity.

  • Sean Durzi D | NYR

    Mammoth's Sean Durzi: Suiting up in Vegas

    Durzi (upper body) is in the lineup for Game 1 versus the Golden Knights on Sunday, according to the NHL media site.

    Durzi missed Utah's regular-season finale Thursday against the Blues after sustaining his upper-body injury Tuesday versus the Jets. Whether the right-shot blueliner is 100 percent healthy remains to be seen, but he will replace Nick DeSimone in the lineup and skate on the third pairing next to Ian Cole to start Utah's first postseason run.

  • Canadiens' Alexandre Carrier: Ready to rock

    Carrier (upper body) will play against Tampa Bay on Sunday in Game 1, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.

    Following a nine-game absence to close out the regular season, Carrier will return to a top-pairing role in Sunday's lineup against the Lightning. He generated seven goals, 22 points, 56 shots on net and 155 blocked shots across 73 appearances during the 2025-26 regular season.

  • Mammoth's Maveric Lamoureux: Joining as Black Ace

    Lamoureux has been recalled from AHL Tucson by the Mammoth, the team announced Sunday.

    With AHL Tucson's season wrapped up, the Mammoth have set their Black Aces for the postseason. Lamoureux will be joined by Andrew Agozzino, Cameron Hebig, Ben McCartney, Maksymilian Szuber, Scott Perunovich, Jaxson Stauber, Daniil But and Matt Villalta as potential reinforcements for the Mammoth's playoff run.

  • Josh Manson D | COL

    Avalanche's Josh Manson: Good to go Sunday

    Manson (upper body) will play in Game 1 against the Kings on Sunday, according to Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette.

    Following a three-game absence, Manson will return to the lineup in a third-pairing role. During the 2025-26 regular season, he accounted for five goals, 31 points, 128 shots on net, 99 blocked shots, 174 hits and 91 PIM in 79 appearances.

  • Stars' Miro Heiskanen: Pockets power-play assist

    Heiskanen registered a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-1 loss to the Wild in Game 1.

    Heiskanen missed the last three games of the regular season due to a lower-body injury. He ended the campaign at 63 points, including 28 on the power play, over 77 appearances. Heiskanen will be tasked with heavy minutes throughout the playoffs. In previous postseason runs, Heiskanen has amassed 17 goals and 48 helpers across 93 outings. This is the seventh time in his eight NHL campaigns he's helped the Stars make the playoffs.

  • Senators' Carter Yakemchuk: Added as part of Black Aces

    Yakemchuk has been added to the active roster by the Senators, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports Sunday.

    Following Saturday's 2-0 defeat in Game 1 against the Hurricanes, the Senators have added their crop of Black Aces to the roster with AHL Belleville's season officially in the books. Alongside Yakemchuk, Ottawa also added Graeme Clarke, Arthur Kaliyev, Xavier Bourgault, Oskar Pettersson and Tyler Boucher to the roster.

  • Lightning's Steve Santini: Assigned to AHL

    Santini was loaned to AHL Syracuse on Sunday.

    Santini had one assist, four shots on net, seven blocked shots and nine hits in 12 NHL appearances during the 2025-26 regular season. He appears poised to play for the Crunch in the Calder Cup Playoffs.

  • Mammoth's Scott Perunovich: Picks up three assists for Tucson

    Perunovich recorded three assists in AHL Tucson's 5-4 win over Henderson on Saturday.

    Perunovich has displayed quality scoring with nine goals and 40 helpers over 64 outings this season. That includes two goals and 11 assists over his last 11 contests. The 27-year-old's scoring ability hasn't translated to the NHL, and at this point, it's not clear when he might get another chance at hockey's highest level.
