Warren signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Islanders on Friday.

Warren saw action in eight regular-season games for the Isles this year, recording three assists, seven shots and seven hits while averaging 11:29 of ice time. With several defensemen out of contract this summer, there could be an open spot on the blue line heading into Opening Night of the 2026-27 campaign.

McNabb (face) will travel back home with the team ahead of Game 3 against the Hurricanes on Saturday, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.

McNabb has appeared in 17 postseason games for Vegas in 2026, registering one goal, six assists and 18 shots while averaging 19:59 of ice time. If the blueliner misses out on Game 3, then Kaedan Korczak would likely step back into the lineup after being a healthy scratch for the last two games.

Hanifin logged an assist and four blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Hurricanes in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Hanifin snapped a five-game point drought with the helper. He's been held to just two assists over 12 contests since the start of the second round, though Hanifin continues to offer quality play in a shutdown role. He has a total of seven assists, 23 shots on net, 17 hits, 38 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 18 playoff outings.

Gostisbehere logged two power-play assists in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Golden Knights in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Gostisbehere set up Jordan Staal's tally in the third period as well as Seth Jarvis' game-winner in overtime. The 33-year-old Gostisbehere has three goals and four helpers during his five-game point streak, with four of those seven points coming on the power play. He's at nine points, 22 shots on net, 14 PIM, 11 hits, 10 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 15 playoff outings.

McNabb went to the hospital after taking a puck to the face during Thursday's Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals versus the Hurricanes, per the ESPN broadcast.

McNabb was hit by a slap shot in the first period and immediately left the ice. A trip to the hospital raises the level of concern regarding the injury, but the Golden Knights typically keep things close to the vest with updates. It's unclear at this time if McNabb will be able to suit up in Game 3 on Saturday.

Chatfield logged two assists, two hits, three blocked shots and two PIM in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Chatfield has racked up five helpers over his last five contests. The shutdown defenseman doesn't always get significantly involved on offense, but he's done his part as the Hurricanes have worked deeper into the postseason. Overall, he's racked up a goal, six helpers, 24 shots on net, 22 blocked shots, 10 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 14 playoff outings in a top-four role.

Gostisbehere scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Gostisbehere has scored three times and added two assists during a four-game point streak. The defenseman is delivering quality offense late in the playoffs after being held to two assists over his first 10 contests this postseason. He has three goals, four helpers, 22 shots on net, 11 hits, 10 blocked shots, 14 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 14 playoff outings this year.

McNabb notched three assists, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Hurricanes in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

McNabb picked up a helper in each frame to help the Golden Knights start the series with a victory. It was a good time for one of the best offensive games of his career, but his value continues to come from the heavy shutdown minutes he plays. He's at one goal, six helpers, 18 shots on net, 33 hits, 33 blocked shots, 19 PIM and a plus-10 rating over 16 playoff outings.

Theodore scored a goal on two shots, added two assists, went plus-2 and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Hurricanes in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Theodore's goal in the first period started the Golden Knights' early comeback. He then helped out on third-period tallies by Brett Howden and Tomas Hertl. With five points over his last three games, Theodore continues to contribute from a top-pairing role. He's up to five goals, nine assists, 33 shots on net, 48 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over 17 playoff appearances.

Lauzon (upper body) will suit up in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals versus the Hurricanes on Tuesday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

Lauzon hasn't been in the lineup since Game 6 against Utah in the first round. The left-shot blueliner will presumably replace Kaedan Korczak on the third pairing. Lauzon might also see some time on the penalty kill, but he could be eased back into action overall after missing 10 games in a row.
