NHL Player News

Hamonic (lower body) won't play Tuesday against Florida, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Hamonic will miss his 10th straight contest, and it's unclear if he will be back before the end of the season. He has chipped in six points, 40 PIM, 50 shots on goal, 75 blocked shots and 54 hits in 48 games this campaign.

Fleury (undisclosed) will be out Tuesday when the Lightning host Columbus, per Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com.

Fleury has played in 24 games for the Lightning this season, recording one goal and four assists to go along with 25 shots on goal. He will likely continue to serve as a rotational, bottom-pairing option once healthy.

Marino (upper body) will be back in action Tuesday against Toronto, per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.

Marino has played 71 games for the Devils this season, recording four goals and 21 assists to go along with 55 shots. He will likely slot into the first or second defensive pairing versus the Maple Leafs. The 26-year-old needs just two more points to pass the career-high 26 he set with the Penguins in his first NHL season in 2019-20.

Seider is dealing with an illness ahead of Tuesday's game versus Washington, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.

Although he's under the weather, the Red Wings are still hopeful Seider will be available against the Capitals. Confirmation on Seider's status for Tuesday's contest likely won't surface until Detroit takes the ice for pregame warmups.

Ekman-Larsson will be rested against the Senators on Tuesday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Uvis Balinskis will replace Ekman-Larsson in the lineup against Ottawa. It wouldn't be surprising to see Ekman-Larsson, who's picked up 30 points through 78 contests this campaign, back in the lineup against Columbus on Thursday.

Xhekaj (shoulder) will miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery on his left shoulder.

Xhekaj played in 44 games for the Canadians this season, recording three goals and seven assists. He's expected to be ready for the start of the 2024-25 campaign.

Rielly picked up an assist in Monday's 3-2 overtime win over Pittsburgh.

With his secondary helper on Matthew Knies' second-period goal Monday, Rielly now has assists in three straight matchups since returning from a four-game absence due to an upper-body injury. The 30-year-old blueliner is up to 54 points (seven goals, 47 assists) along with 92 hits and 130 blocked shots through 68 appearances this year while holding down a first-pairing spot.

Brodie picked up an assist in Monday's 3-2 overtime victory over the Penguins.

Brodie set up Matthew Knies with a net-front feed early in the second period, tying the game 1-1. The 33-year-old blueliner has been uncharacteristically productive on the offensive end of late -- he now has assists in back-to-back outings and six in his last seven contests. Brodie has yet to score a goal in 74 appearances this season, though he's up to 24 assists and 152 blocked shots while averaging 21:46 of ice time.

Hanifin scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist and blocked two shots in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

Both of Hanifin's points came on the power play, as he and Jack Eichel set up each other's goals. The 27-year-old Hanifin has earned eight points over 14 contests as a Golden Knight -- Monday marked his third multi-point effort with the team. The blueliner is at 43 points, 160 shots on net, 116 blocked shots, 62 hits and a plus-19 rating through 76 appearances overall.

Myers recorded an assist, two shots on goal and three hits in Monday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights.

Myers ended a seven-game point drought by helping out on a Brock Boeser tally in the second period. The 34-year-old Myers has put together a solid campaign with 25 points, 85 shots on net, 101 hits, 128 blocked shots, 71 PIM and a plus-14 rating though 73 contests. He remains in a second-pairing role, though a lack of power-play time will keep his offense down.
