  • Bruins' Michael Callahan: Called up by Boston

    Callahan was recalled from AHL Providence on Wednesday.

    Callahan was waived by the Bruins ahead of the regular season, but he'll rejoin the NHL club after Jordan Harris (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday. Over four appearances with Providence this year, Callahan has been held without a point while logging a plus-1 rating.

  • Dysin Mayo D | CLB

    Blue Jackets' Dysin Mayo: Returns to AHL

    Mayo was reassigned to AHL Cleveland on Wednesday.

    Mayo was summoned to Columbus on Sunday, but he didn't end up playing for the Blue Jackets before being returned to the minors. He has two assists in four appearances with Cleveland in 2025-26.

  • Kris Letang D | PIT

    Penguins' Kris Letang: Reaches big milestone Tuesday

    Letang collected two power-play assists in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.

    With his second helper of the night -- on Justin Brazeau's insurance tally in the third period -- Letang reached 600 career assists, becoming the 20th defenseman in NHL history to reach that plateau. He's also the 10th defender to achieve the milestone with a single team, a list that includes Hall of Fame legends Bobby Orr, Larry Robinson, Denis Potvin and Nicklas Lidstrom. Letang is nearing the end of his career at 38 years of age, but he still has something left in the tank. After being held off the scoresheet through Pittsburgh's first five games of the season, he has three assists in the last two.

  • Devils' Brenden Dillon: Nets goal in win

    Dillon scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

    Dillon has stepped up on offense lately, earning all three of his points this season over the last four games. The 34-year-old's tally at 4:54 of the second period Tuesday ended up being the game-winner as well. In addition to a surprising amount of offense, Dillon has added five shots on net, 16 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating. In the long run, he'll settle in as a shutdown defenseman in a bottom-four role, and he'll offer more in the way of physicality than scoring by the end of the campaign.

  • Cale Makar D | COL

    Avalanche's Cale Makar: Opens scoring in overtime loss

    Makar scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Mammoth.

    Makar's three goals this season have all come in the last four games, and he has a total of five points in that span. The superstar defenseman is at eight points, 20 shots, 12 blocks, seven hits, six PIM and a plus-9 rating through seven outings this season. Just two of those points have come with a man advantage, so it's possible he still has another level to get to as the campaign progresses.

  • Mammoth's Mikhail Sergachev: Racks up three points

    Sergachev scored a goal on four shots and added two assists in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Avalanche.

    Sergachev had his breakthrough game after starting the season with no points over six contests. His first helper was on Nick Schmaltz's power-play tally in the second period, and the second assist was on Dylan Guenther's game-winner in overtime. Sergachev had 53 points in 77 appearances last season, so it was only a matter of time before he got going on offense. Through seven outings this year, he's added 15 shots on net, 16 blocks, six PIM and a plus-4 rating.

  • Justin Faulk D | DET

    Blues' Justin Faulk: Pots power-play goal

    Faulk scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Kings.

    Faulk earned his second point of the season, tying the game at 1-1 with a power-play tally. He's been a regular on the second power-play unit as well as the second pairing at even strength to begin 2025-26. Faulk has one goal, one assist, 11 shots on net, nine hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over six appearances. He's reached the 30-point mark in his last 10 full-length seasons, so Faulk has a fairly safe floor for fantasy.

  • Senators' Thomas Chabot: Three-game, four-point streak

    Chabot scored a goal in a 3-2 overtime loss to Edmonton on Tuesday.

    Chabot fired a point shot through a crowd and past a heavily screened Stuart Skinner. It was Chabot's 72nd career NHL goal. That moved him past Chris Phillips for the third most by a Sens defender. Chabot is riding a three-game, four-point scoring streak (one goal, two assists).

  • Predators' Justin Barron: Picks up assist in loss

    Barron managed an assist and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Ducks.

    Barron earned his first point in seven contests when he helped out on a Tyson Jost goal in the first period. The 23-year-old Barron remains in a third-pairing role for now, but he hasn't done much to impress so far. He's supplied four shots on net, 10 blocks, four hits and a minus-1 rating. Barron could be at risk of losing ice time to Nick Blankenburg or Nicolas Hague (upper body) in the near future.

  • Predators' Spencer Stastney: Garners helper in loss

    Stastney registered an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Ducks.

    The helper was Stastney's first point in seven games this season. The 25-year-old has held down a steady role on the third pairing, though he could be at risk of losing his spot in the lineup once Nicolas Hague (upper body) returns from injured reserve. Stastney has added four shots on net, six blocked shots and a minus-3 rating.
