Marino scored a goal and added two assists in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Wild.

After helping to set up first-period tallies by Logan Cooley and Nick Schmaltz, Marino potted his first goal of the season into an empty net to cap the victory. The 28-year-old Marino hasn't produced more than 26 points in a season, and he had just two assists in the first eight appearances of the 2025-26 campaign. However, Utah's surging offense is capable of putting anyone in the spotlight for a game or two.

Trouba scored a goal in a 4-3 loss to the Lightning on Saturday.

He fired a slap shot from the right circle past Jonas Johansson to the short side to tie the game at 1-1 early in the second period. Trouba already has five points (two goals, three assists) in eight games this season, and they have all come on his current three-game streak. Last season, Trouba already has more goals this campaign than he did during the 2024-25 campaign.

Hedman put up two assists Saturday in a 4-3 win over the Ducks.

Hedman has seven helpers in eight games this season, but he's still waiting on his first goal. The future Hall of Famer topped the 800-point mark (801) in his 1,139th game, and he sits third among active defensemen behind Brent Burns (914) and Erik Karlsson (876). Hedman sits 19th on the all-time list in scoring from the blue line, and he's now just 10 points from Sergei Gonchar (811) and 26 from Doug Wilson (827). With continued excellence this season, Hedman can pass Gary Suter (844) and move into the 16th spot.

Lohrei collected three assists in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Avalanche.

It was the first multi-point performance of the season for Lohrei, who added three blocked shots, a hit and a plus-2 rating to his ledger. The 24-year-old blueliner has one goal, six points and 14 blocks to begin the season. After recording an NHL-worst minus-43 rating in 2024-25, he has an even plus-minus rating through 10 games this campaign.

Warren had two assists Saturday in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers.

It was his NHL debut, and he made history. Warren is the second defenseman in Isles history to have multiple points in his NHL debut (Rich Pilon, Oct. 6, 1988). He was off to a great start with Bridgeport (AHL) before his call-up. Warren had two goals and three assists in four games there.

Sandin (upper body) won't play Saturday versus Ottawa, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.

Sandin also missed Friday's 5-1 win over Columbus. He has two assists in seven appearances this year. His next opportunity to play will come Tuesday in Dallas.

Chisholm will be a healthy scratch Saturday against Ottawa, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

Chisholm has an assist in three appearances with the Capitals in 2025-26. Dylan McIlrath will draw into the lineup versus the Senators and likely replace Chisholm on the third pairing.

Gudas (lower body) won't be in the lineup against Tampa Bay on Saturday, according to Derek Lee of The Hockey News.

Gudas has two assists, two PIM, eight shots, 23 hits and 12 blocks in seven outings this season. He left Thursday's 7-5 win over Boston because of the injury. Ian Moore will draw into the lineup Saturday due to Gudas' absence.

Hague (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, per the NHL media site.

Hague appears to be ready for his Nashville debut after missing the first eight games of the 2025-26 campaign. He had five goals, 12 points, 74 shots on net, 74 blocked shots and 82 hits across 68 regular-season appearances with Vegas in 2024-25. Hague will probably replace Roman Josi (upper body) in Saturday's lineup against the Kings.

Rielly (undisclosed) is expected to play against Buffalo on Saturday, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

Rielly should be back on the top pairing and the first power-play unit after sitting out Friday's 5-3 loss to the Sabres. He has accounted for two goals, four assists, 20 shots on net, five blocked shots and six hits through seven appearances this season. With Rielly good to go, Dakota Mermis or Philippe Myers will likely come out of the lineup.
