Josi scored a goal on four shots, blocked two shots, went plus-3 and added two PIM in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.

Josi has been excellent since the start of January, racking up four goals and 21 assists over 22 games in that span. This was his first goal in seven contests. The star defenseman is up to 12 tallies, 54 points, 188 shots on net, 104 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 59 outings this season. Josi is tied for fifth in scoring among blueliners, which could lead to him earning some Norris Trophy buzz if he finishes the year well.

Valimaki notched an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Jets.

Valimaki snapped a four-game slump when he set up a Matias Maccelli tally in the second period. The 25-year-old Valimaki has five points over his last 13 outings while seeing mostly bottom-four usage on the Coyotes' blue line during the team's 12-game losing streak. For the season, he has 11 points, 38 shots on net, 39 hits, 46 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 43 appearances.

Morrissey recorded three assists, four shots on goal and three hits in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Coyotes.

Morrissey had one power-play helper among his three assists. His offense looks to be all the way back now, as he's posted nine assists over the last four games, including three on the power play. For the season, the 28-year-old defenseman has 44 points, 140 shots on net, 60 hits, 78 blocked shots and a plus-20 rating over 56 appearances.

Provorov scored his fifth goal of the season late in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Rangers.

The goal was just Provorov's fifth of the year. The 27-year-old defender isn't having a career-best campaign by any stretch, but five goals and 26 points through 57 games represent his best offensive production rate since the 2019-20 season. However, he's taking shots at the lowest rate of his career and has a minus-12 rating.

Clague was reassigned to AHL Rochester on Sunday.

Clague dressed in two games with Buffalo during his NHL stint, tallying one assist and averaging 10:12 of ice time. With Owen Power (hand) back from injured reserve, Clague was no longer needed at the top level.

Moverare was recalled from AHL Ontario on Sunday.

Moverare hasn't seen any NHL action since Dec. 23. He's been held scoreless through five NHL contests this season.

Drysdale (undisclosed) left Sunday's game against the Penguins with an injury, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.

Drysdale appeared to be favoring his left shoulder after taking a hit from Jansen Harkins. Drysdale logged just 10:39 of ice time prior to leaving the game. There was no update available immediately after the game, but more information on his injury should surface before Tuesday's tilt with Tampa Bay.

Crevier (mouth) will return to the lineup Sunday versus Detroit, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

Crevier, who will be back from a two-game absence, will play alongside Jarred Tinordi on the third pairing versus the Red Wings. The 22-year-old Crevier has three assists, 14 shots on goal, 43 blocked shots and 21 hits in 20 NHL outings this season. His return will bump Isaak Phillips to the press box.

Chatfield (upper body) will not play Sunday against Buffalo, per the NHL's media site.

Chatfield has now missed four straight games and the team hasn't provided much information on his return timeline. His next chance to play will be Tuesday against the Wild.

Woo was assigned to AHL Abbotsford on Sunday.

Woo still hasn't seen any NHL action yet. The 23-year-old blueliner has five goals, 18 points and 41 PIM in 44 AHL contests this campaign.
