NHL Player News

Siegenthaler (undisclosed) was hurt in the first period of Tuesday's game versus the Penguins, Sam Kasan of the Devils' official site reports.

Siegenthaler fell awkwardly after receiving a hit and retreated to the locker room. He didn't return at the start of the second or third periods, which suggests he is done for the game despite the lack of an update from the team. The Devils currently aren't rostering an extra defenseman, though Kurtis MacDermid has previously played on the blue line despite being deployed as a forward this year. If Siegenthaler can't play Thursday versus the Golden Knights, the Devils may need to make a roster move.

Ekman-Larsson (lower body) is set to play versus the Flames on Tuesday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

Ekman-Larsson left Saturday's game versus the Oilers, but it appears that will be the extent of his absence. The 33-year-old is projected to play alongside Morgan Rielly on the top pairing, and Ekman-Larsson should also see power-play time.

Mailloux was called up from AHL Laval on Tuesday.

Mailloux represented Laval at the AHL All-Star Classic on Monday, and now he'll rejoin the Canadiens, at least for the rest of their road trip. It's unclear if he'll play Tuesday versus the Sharks.

Mayfield (lower body) won't be in the lineup against Vegas on Tuesday, per Andrew Gross of Newsday.

Mayfield is day-to-day and will miss his second straight game. He has two goals, seven points, 40 shots on net, 87 blocked shots and 71 hits in 50 appearances this season. Dennis Cholowski will be in Tuesday's lineup because of Mayfield's absence.

Jensen (lower body) will play against Tampa Bay on Tuesday, according to TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Jensen will return to action following a five-game absence. He has three goals, 18 points, 57 shots on net, 58 blocked shots and 42 hits through 48 appearances this season. Jensen will replace Nikolas Matinpalo in Tuesday's lineup.

Samuelsson (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.

Samuelsson won't play in Tuesday's game against Columbus and will miss Saturday's matchup versus Nashville. He will get some additional time to rest afterward due to a 13-day break for the 4 Nations Face-Off. Connor Clifton will replace Samuelsson in Tuesday's lineup.

Anderson (finger) will be sidelined for Wednesday's clash with Montreal, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.

Anderson will miss his second straight contest due to his finger injury and could be in danger of remaining on the shelf until after the international break. Considering the blueliner has managed just one point in his last 11 outings, few fantasy players will be significantly impacted by his absence. In the meantime, Jacob Moverare and Jordan Spence figure to make up the third pairing.

Heiskanen underwent successful knee surgery in New York on Tuesday and is being labeled month-to-month, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

Heiskanen's injury is a brutal loss for a Dallas club that is jockeying for playoff positioning in the Central division. Heiskanen was injured Jan. 28 against the Golden Knights after a collision with Mark Stone and placed on injured reserve Friday. Given his timeline, it's unclear whether Heiskanen will be back in time before the conclusion of the regular season. While he's unavailable, Brendan Smith should receive more opportunities, and Thomas Harley will quarterback the No. 1 power-play unit.

Hughes will not be in the lineup for Tuesday's clash with Colorado due to a lower-body injury, Ben Kuzma of Postmedia reports.

Hughes will be sidelined for his second straight contest due to his lower-body injury. Prior to his absence, the 25-year-old defenseman was riding an eight-game point streak during which he racked up five goals and seven helpers, including four power-play points.

Ekman-Larsson will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's road meeting with the Flames, according to David Alter of The Hockey News.

Ekman-Larsson was injured in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Oilers. If the veteran blueliner is unable to suit up Tuesday, one of Dakota Mermis or Philippe Myers will draw into the lineup. Ekman-Larsson has accounted for three markers, 18 helpers and a plus-15 rating through 51 outings in 2024-25.
