  • Senators' Thomas Chabot: Exits season finale

    Chabot (upper body) won't finish Tuesday's game versus the Bruins.

    Chabot will have all offseason to heal from the injury, as the tilt against Boston is the Senators' season finale. The defenseman has battled injuries all campaign, which ultimately limited him to 30 points in 51 appearances.

  • Oilers' Philip Broberg: Up with big club

    Broberg was promoted from AHL Bakersfield on Tuesday.

    Broberg's recall gives the Oilers an additional depth option if they want to rest players for the final two games. The defenseman failed to record a point over his first 10 NHL outings this season.

  • Canadiens' Chris Wideman: Ending career

    Wideman (back) told reporters Tuesday that he will not play again, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.

    Wideman was on injured reserve for all of 2023-24 due to a back injury. He was limited to just 46 games last season, which was his second campaign following a one-year stint in the KHL. Wideman ends his NHL career with 78 points in 291 appearances.

  • Maple Leafs' Joel Edmundson: Playing Tuesday

    Edmundson (undisclosed) is set to play Tuesday versus the Panthers, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

    Edmundson has been banged up down the stretch, but he'll draw in for Tuesday's game. The Maple Leafs have nine available defensemen currently, so it's still possible the veteran is rested for Wednesday's tilt versus the Lightning.

  • Brady Skjei D | NSH

    Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Not playing after all

    Skjei (rest) will be out of the lineup Tuesday versus the Blue Jackets, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    Skjei was poised to rejoin the lineup after also resting in Sunday's 4-2 victory over Chicago, but he'll instead get another game off heading into the postseason. The 30-year-old defenseman ends the regular season at a career-high 47 points with 185 shots on net, 90 blocked shots, 69 hits and a plus-15 rating over 80 appearances. Skjei should be good for a top-four role in the playoffs.

  • Kaiden Guhle D | MON

    Canadiens' Kaiden Guhle: Not ruled out for Worlds

    Guhle sustained a head injury April 4 versus the Lightning that cost him the last seven games of the season, but he hasn't been ruled out from joining Team Canada at the IIHF World Championship in May, Arpon Basu of The Athletic reports.

    Guhle will conclude his second NHL season with 22 points, 95 shots on net, 116 hits, 178 blocked shots, 56 PIM and a minus-8 rating over 70 contests. He mainly played in a top-four role. Guhle's injury was not classified as a concussion, and it's possible he could get a little more playing time at Worlds before the offseason.

  • Bruins' Brandon Carlo: Unavailable Tuesday

    Carlo (undisclosed) won't play in Tuesday's regular-season finale against Ottawa, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports.

    Carlo is expected to be back in the lineup for Boston's playoff opener after being injured in Monday's 2-0 loss to Washington. He will conclude the regular season with four goals, 14 points, 79 shots on net, 140 blocked shots and 140 hits in 76 appearances. Matt Grzelcyk is slated to replace Carlo versus the Senators.

  • Golden Knights' Alex Pietrangelo: Won't play Tuesday

    Pietrangelo (illness) won't be in the lineup Tuesday against Chicago, per Paul Delos Santos of NHL.com.

    Pietrangelo will miss his sixth straight contest. He has produced four goals, 33 points, 141 shots on net and 160 blocked shots in 64 appearances this season. Pietrangelo's final chance to return to action before the playoffs is Thursday against Anaheim.

  • Torey Krug D | STL

    Blues' Torey Krug: Won't play in season finale

    Krug (upper body) won't be in the lineup for Wednesday's regular-season finale against Dallas, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

    Krug will finish the season with four goals, 39 points, an ugly minus-31 rating, 162 shots and 111 hits through 77 contests. He should produce similar totals while seeing regular power-play usage in 2024-25, making him a decent complementary option at defense in most fantasy formats.

  • Brady Skjei D | NSH

    Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Back in action

    Skjei (rest) will be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Blue Jackets, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

    Skjei will play on the top pairing with Brent Burns after sitting out Sunday's 4-2 win over Chicago for roster management purposes. The 30-year-old Skjei has 13 goals, 47 points, 185 shots on net and 90 blocked shots in 80 contests this campaign.
