  • Red Wings' Simon Edvinsson: Expected to play Monday

    Edvinsson (lower body) is expected to play Monday against San Jose, Jonathan Mills of the Red Wings' official site reports.

    Edvinsson missed Saturday's game against the Kings due to a lower-body injury, but he'll likely be back in action following a minimal absence. Over 16 appearances this year, the 21-year-old has tallied two goals, six points and 37 blocked shots while averaging 20:36 of ice time.

  • Jets' Logan Stanley: Set to travel with team

    Head coach Scott Arniel said Monday that Stanley (undisclosed) will travel with the Jets for their upcoming road trip, which begins Friday in Pittsburgh, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

    Stanley has been on injured reserve for nearly a week, but it's encouraging that he'll be with the Jets for their upcoming six-game road trip that runs through Dec. 1. However, Arniel specified Monday that Stanley isn't expected to get back on the ice for another four or five days, so he could have to wait until mid-to-late next week before he's in the mix to return to game action.

  • Jonas Brodin D | MIN

    Wild's Jonas Brodin: Poised to return Tuesday

    Brodin (upper body) is expected to play versus St. Louis on Tuesday, assuming he gets final medical clearances, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

    Brodin has missed the last two games due to his upper-body issue but should be back on the blue line alongside Jared Spurgeon. The 31-year-old Brodin is slightly behind his pace from last season when he notched 27 points in 62 regular-season contests but should still be capable of reaching the 20-point threshold.

  • Kings' Jacob Moverare: Called back up

    Moverare was recalled from AHL Ontario on Monday.

    Moverare was loaned to the AHL club Sunday, but he'll rejoin Los Angeles a day later. In his season debut for the NHL club Saturday, the 26-year-old recorded four blocked shots, two hits and a plus-1 rating in 14:50 of ice time in a 4-1 win over Detroit.

  • Oilers' Darnell Nurse: Set to miss 5-10 days

    Nurse (upper body) is expected to be out for about 5-10 days, per Kenzie Lalonde of TSN on Monday.

    Nurse left Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to Toronto early in the second period following a high hit from Ryan Reaves, who received a five-game suspension. The 29-year-old Nurse has two goals, seven assists, 45 shots on net, 32 blocked shots and 34 hits across 18 appearances this season. He will be replaced in Monday's lineup against Montreal by Josh Brown.

  • Oilers' Darnell Nurse: Won't play Monday

    Nurse (upper body) will not be in the lineup against the Canadiens on Monday, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.

    At this point, Nurse should probably be considered a heavy doubt to face the Senators on Tuesday with the Oilers heading into a back-to-back. With the veteran blueliner sidelined and an injury keeping Viktor Arvidsson (undisclosed) out, the Oilers figure to roll with seven defensemen, which means both Josh Brown and Troy Stecher should see minutes over the next two games.

  • David Savard D | MON

    Canadiens' David Savard: Good to go

    Savard (upper body) will play against Edmonton on Monday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

    Savard's return from a one-game absence will bump Justin Barron to the press box as a healthy scratch. The 34-year-old Savard has four assists, 11 shots on goal, 45 blocked shots and 17 hits across 17 appearances this season.

  • Andrew Peeke D | UTA

    Bruins' Andrew Peeke: Returning against Jackets

    Peeke (upper body) will be in the lineup to face Columbus on Monday, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports.

    Initial reports suggested Peeke wouldn't be ready to return from his upper-body injury in time for Monday's contest, but it appears he's made good progress. With the 26-year-old blueliner set to play for the first time since Nov. 5 versus the Leafs, he figures to take on a third-pairing role, while Parker Wotherspoon will likely be relegated to a spot in the press box.

  • Flyers' Jamie Drysdale: Skating, remains unavailable

    Drysdale (upper body) skated in a non-contact jersey during Monday's practice, per Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia.

    Drysdale will miss his fourth straight game against Colorado on Monday. A timeline for his return remains unclear, but he is progressing slowly. Drysdale has one goal, two assists, 12 shots on net and 28 blocked shots across 15 outings this season. With Drysdale, Cam York (upper body) and Emil Andrae (undisclosed) unavailable, Philadelphia will have Erik Johnson and Helge Grans in the lineup versus the Avalanche.

  • Cam York D | PHI

    Flyers' Cam York: Full practice participant

    York (upper body) continues to be a full participant at practice, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports, but remains on injured reserve ahead of Monday's matchup with Colorado.

    York will be sidelined for his 12th consecutive contest due to his upper-body injury, having last played Oct. 23 versus Washington. With Emil Andrae (undisclosed) and Jamie Drysdale (upper body) both sidelined as well, the team could certainly benefit from having York back in action. At this point, York may be hard-pressed to reach the 30-point threshold again this year, after needing all 82 games to achieve that mark in 2023-24.
