NHL Player News

Stillman was reassigned to AHL Chicago on Saturday.

Stillman was a healthy scratch for Carolina's last two games and hasn't seen any NHL action yet this campaign. He has two assists in six AHL outings this season.

Faulk (upper body) will play against Edmonton on Saturday, Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Following a two-game absence, Faulk will replace Pierre-Olivier Joseph in Saturday's lineup. The 32-year-old Faulk has one goal, seven points, 48 shots on net, 41 blocked shots and 31 hits through 25 appearances this season.

Karlsson recorded an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.

Karlsson had gone two games without a point prior to Friday. He has seven assists over his last nine outings for a solid run of production. For the season, the defenseman has 17 points (six on the power play), 66 shots on net, 36 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating over 28 appearances.

Schneider notched an assist and five blocked shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Penguins.

Schneider saw a season-high 21:48 of ice time in the win, and that's likely to be the norm moving forward after the Rangers dealt Jacob Trouba to the Ducks on Friday. More ice time is likely to help Schneider's offense as well, though that won't be a priority for the 23-year-old blueliner. He has nine points, 35 shots on net, 34 hits, 46 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating through 25 appearances.

Dillon produced an assist, two shots on goal, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.

Dillon helped out on a Jesper Bratt goal in the second period. The helper was Dillon's first point in five games. The 34-year-old defenseman has occupied a top-four role for much of the season, though his average ice time is 18:26 through 29 contests. He won't add a ton of offense -- he has seven points and 17 shots on net to go with 75 hits, 51 blocked shots, 37 PIM and a plus-7 rating as a physical presence on the blue line.

Hughes scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.

Hughes was credited with the Devils' first goal, which bounced in off a Kraken player. The goal was his first of the year, and he's been hot lately with six helpers over the previous six contests. The 21-year-old blueliner is up to nine points, 30 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 20 outings overall.

Roy notched an assist, three shots on goal, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

Roy set up Nic Dowd's tally to open the scoring 1:06 into the second period. The helper ended a four-game slump for Roy. The defenseman has been steady this season, earning six points, 24 shots on net, 32 hits, 27 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating across 16 appearances.

Matinpalo (illness) participated in the morning skate, but he will likely be a healthy scratch against Nashville on Saturday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

Matinpalo was not an option for Thursday's 2-1 win over Detroit because of the flu. He has two goals and six points in 17 AHL appearances this season.

Tanev distributed a helper in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Capitals.

Tanev produced the primary assist on John Tavares' 12th marker of 2024-25 to tie the game at 1-1 in the middle frame, but that was the last of Toronto's offense in the contest. While Tanev is known for his defensive prowess, he's contributed one goal and three assists in his past six outings. The right-shot blueliner has helped Toronto become a better defensive unit as well -- Tanev is second in the NHL with 78 blocked shots. He's at one goal, six assists, 10 PIM, 14 shots and a plus-8 rating through 26 games this campaign.

McCabe (upper body) was put on injured reserve Saturday.

Toronto activated Max Pacioretty (lower body) from long-term injured reserve in a corresponding move. McCabe will miss his fourth straight game against Pittsburgh on Saturday. He is eligible to come off the IR list for Tuesday's game against New Jersey, but it's unclear when he will be available to play. McCabe has five assists, 20 shots on goal, 46 blocked shots and 52 hits in 23 appearances this season. Philippe Myers has been filling in during McCabe's absence.
