  • Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Returning to action Monday

    Jankowski (undisclosed) will return to the lineup for Monday's game against the Flyers, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    Jankowski sat out Saturday's game against the Mammoth for an undisclosed reason, but he'll return to action two days later. The Hurricanes appear to be managing his workload late in the regular season, and while it's unclear whether he'll play in Tuesday's regular-season finale against the Islanders, he should be available for the start of the playoffs.

  • Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: Unavailable Monday

    Svechnikov won't be available Monday versus the Flyers for an undisclosed reason.

    Svechnikov has scored in six of his last seven outings, including four tallies with the man advantage. With several players getting the night off, Taylor Hall could be pressed into a first-line role and figures to log time with one of the two power-play units. Svechnikov almost certainly will be back for the playoffs, but he should be considered questionable versus the Islanders on Tuesday.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Expected to play Monday

    Carrier (undisclosed) will return to action against Philadelphia on Monday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

    Carrier missed Saturday's 4-1 win over Utah for maintenance. He has provided seven goals, 18 points, 77 shots on net and 168 hits in 68 outings during the 2025-26 campaign.

  • Jets' Connor Hellebuyck: Slated to start Monday

    Hellebuyck is slated to start Monday's road game against Vegas, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

    Hellebuyck was pulled after the second period of Saturday's home game against Philadelphia after allowing five goals on 20 shots (.750 save percentage). Aside from that outing, he's been relatively effective in April, going 3-2-0 with a 2.81 GAA and .874 save percentage over five starts. He's made a pair of home starts against the Golden Knights this year, going 1-0-1 with five goals allowed on 58 shots.

  • Jackson Blake RW | CAR

    Hurricanes' Jackson Blake: Draws back in Monday

    Blake (undisclosed) is slated to play against Philadelphia on Monday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    After being absent from Saturday's 4-1 win over the Mammoth, Blake will occupy a first-line spot and see time on the top power-play unit against the Flyers on Monday. He has notched 22 goals and 52 points in 79 appearances this season.

  • Hurricanes' Jaccob Slavin: Sidelined for Monday's game

    Slavin has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Flyers for an undisclosed reason, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    Slavin will be out for the second time in the Hurricanes' last three games, as the team is resting several key players in the penultimate game of the regular season. Whether he'll suit up Tuesday against the Islanders remains to be seen, but he should be back in action for the start of the playoffs.

  • Jordan Staal C | CAR

    Hurricanes' Jordan Staal: Dealing with undisclosed injury

    Staal will not be in the lineup versus the Flyers on Monday for an undisclosed reason.

    Staal could probably play through the issue if this was a playoff game, but the Hurricanes have been resting much of their roster ahead of the postseason. He did deal with an undisclosed injury prior to the Hurricanes making significant lineup changes, but he has managed to play in two of the previous four games. With a back-to-back on the schedule, it's unclear if Staal will suit up in the season finale versus the Islanders on Tuesday.

  • Seth Jarvis C | CAR

    Hurricanes' Seth Jarvis: Won't play Monday

    Jarvis has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Flyers for an undisclosed reason, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    Jarvis is one of several key players who will be sidelined for the Hurricanes on Monday, and while a reason hasn't been provided for his absence, he's likely resting ahead of the playoffs. It's not yet clear whether he'll return for Tuesday's game against the Islanders, but he should be back in action for the start of the postseason.

  • Hurricanes' Logan Stankoven: Poised to play

    Stankoven (undisclosed) is expected to play against the Flyers on Monday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    Stankoven will see time on the first line and top power-play unit after missing Saturday's 4-1 win over Utah. He has 21 goals and 21 assists in 79 outings this campaign.

  • Taylor Hall LW | CAR

    Hurricanes' Taylor Hall: Set to play Monday

    Hall (undisclosed) is expected to play against Philadelphia on Monday, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

    After sitting out Saturday's 4-1 win over Utah, Hall will return to a top-line role against the Flyers on Monday. He will also see time on the first power-play unit. Hall has 18 goals and 48 points in 79 appearances this season.
