NHL Player News

Anderson (upper body) should be available once the Olympic break is over, Anthony Collazo of MayorsManor.com reports Wednesday.

The Kings will resume their schedule next Wednesday against Vegas. While it looks like Anderson will draw back into the lineup for that game, he needs to be activated off injured reserve before that can happen. The 26-year-old has two goals, nine points, 14 PIM, 59 hits and 77 blocks in 54 appearances this season. Jacob Moverare will probably be a healthy scratch versus the Golden Knights if Anderson is back in the lineup.

Moore was reassigned to AHL San Diego on Wednesday, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.

Moore has two goals and nine points in 41 outings with the Ducks in 2025-26. Anaheim isn't scheduled to resume its season until next Wednesday versus Edmonton, so this is an opportunity for Moore to get in some work. It wouldn't be surprising if the 24-year-old defenseman was summoned before the Ducks' next game.

Leddy was recalled from AHL San Jose on Wednesday.

Leddy has made 19 appearances for the NHL club this year, recording four assists, 26 blocked shots, six PIM and four hits while averaging 17:30 of ice time. He'll join the Sharks for practice during the final week of the Olympic break, but it's not yet clear whether he'll stick around once the NHL season resumes.

The Lightning announced Wednesday that Crozier will miss approximately 10 weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a core muscle injury.

Crozier made 34 appearances for the Lightning prior to the Olympic break, recording a goal, nine assists, 40 PIM, 38 hits and 31 blocked shots while averaging 16:00 of ice time. His return timetable signals that he'll likely be forced to miss at least the remainder of the regular season, and he'll likely also be sidelined for the start of the postseason. Whether he'll be available if the Lightning make a run in the playoffs remains to be seen.

Rinzel was recalled by Chicago on Wednesday.

Wyatt Kaiser (lower body) was put on injured reserve, and Kevin Korchinski was summoned from the minors in corresponding moves. Rinzel has two goals, nine points, 30 PIM, 48 shots, 28 hits and 36 blocks in 31 outings in 2025-26. Rinzel might be in the lineup when Chicago's schedule resumes Feb. 26 in Nashville, especially after Kaiser was placed on IR. However, Korchinski is competing with Rinzel for the same spot.

Korchinski was called up by Chicago on Wednesday.

Korchinski has two goals, 23 points and 46 PIM in 45 outings with AHL Rockford in 2025-26. He also has an assist and two PIM in two appearances with Chicago this season. Wyatt Kaiser (lower body) was put on injured reserve in a corresponding move, so Korchinski might be in Chicago's lineup when its schedule resumes Feb. 26 in Nashville. However, Sam Rinzel was also summoned from the minors Wednesday and might end up in the lineup instead of Korchinski.

Kaiser (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, retroactive to Feb. 4.

Kaiser suffered a lower-body injury just before the Olympic break, and the Blackhawks announced Tuesday that the 23-year-old won't be available when the team resumes play in late February. While it's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, he'll be eligible to be activated off injured reserve at any point, while Kevin Korchinski and Sam Rinzel were recalled by Chicago on Wednesday.

Kiersted was summoned by Minnesota on Wednesday.

Kiersted has a goal and six points in 31 outings with AHL Iowa in 2025-26. He also has an assist in four appearances with Minnesota this season. Kiersted will participate in practices with Minnesota during the Olympic break, but it remains to be seen if he'll stick with the NHL club once Minnesota's schedule resumes Feb. 26 in Colorado.

Gleason has been called up by Minnesota on Wednesday.

Gleason has a goal and 17 points in 44 outings with AHL Iowa this season. The 27-year-old hasn't played in the NHL since the 2018-19 regular season. Although he'll participate in practices during the Olympic break, Gleason will probably return to the minors without playing for Minnesota.

Bonk was summoned by Philadelphia on Wednesday.

Bonk has two goals and six points in 22 outings with AHL Lehigh Valley in 2025-26. The 21-year-old might make his NHL debut when the Flyers' schedule resumes next Wednesday in Washington. However, it's also possible that he's simply up to get into some practices with the NHL squad during the Olympic break and will be returned to the minors without getting into a game.
