Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Moves to IR
McDonagh (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.
After being injured in Saturday's 3-2 win over Washington, McDonagh will miss the next few games. He hasn't been practicing, and it's unclear when he will be available to return. He has recorded three goals, six points, 15 shots on net, 26 blocked shots and eight hits through 15 appearances this season. McDonagh's move to the IR list frees up a roster spot for the Lightning to recall a blueliner from AHL Syracuse ahead of Wednesday's contest versus the Rangers.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Set to miss time
McDonagh (undisclosed) will miss at least a few games, Lightning reporter Gabby Shirley reports Tuesday.
McDonagh probably won't be an option for Tampa Bay's next three games, starting with Wednesday's matchup against the Rangers. However, it's unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup. McDonagh isn't quite day-to-day yet, though head coach Jon Cooper said after Tuesday's practice that the 36-year-old defenseman could be at that stage soon. Victor Hedman (undisclosed) and Max Crozier (undisclosed) are also dealing with injuries, making it unclear who will replace McDonagh in Wednesday's lineup.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Leaves Saturday's game
McDonagh (undisclosed) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Capitals.
McDonagh sustained an injury and didn't take the ice after the first intermission. The 36-year-old defenseman can be considered day-to-day for now. He'll have some extra time to heal up, as the Lightning don't play until Wednesday's home game versus the Rangers.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Five points in first seven games
McDonagh scored a goal and added an assist in a 3-2 loss to Chicago on Thursday.
McDonagh has three points, including two goals, in his last two games, and he has put up five points (three goals, two assists) in seven games this season. The 36-year-old defender isn't a really an offensive force, even if he does have three 40-plus point seasons under his belt. McDonagh's last big season was 2018-19. This run is unlikely to last, but take advantage while it does.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Three points in last five games
McDonagh scored a goal in a 3-2 loss to Columbus on Saturday.
McDonagh fired a wrist shot from the top of the left circle that deflected off Jet Greaves' glove and the crossbar and went in. The goal tied the game 1-1 at 12:42 of the first. McDonagh has delivered three points, including two goals, in his last five games. His best offensive seasons are behind him, but the veteran defender can deliver a third consecutive 30-plus point campaign with a strong plus-minus and as many as 150 blocks.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Sharp one-timer finds twine
McDonagh scored a goal in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Lightning.
Late in the second period, McDonagh made the score 3-2 with a one-timer from above the left circle that beat Jacob Markstrom to the stick side. McDonagh's 36 years old with more than 1,000 regular-season games under his belt (1,012). He will get a lot of ice time, but his fantasy value is limited.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Two assists in Saturday's win
McDonagh posted two assists in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Panthers in Game 3.
McDonagh has three helpers, five shots on net, five hits, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over three playoff contests. He had a hand in goals by Nick Paul and Jake Guentzel in this contest. McDonagh's top-four role isn't in question, and he's been providing well-rounded numbers with a bit of offense and plenty of defensive work over the last two months.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Notches helper in Game 1
McDonagh provided an assist in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Panthers in Game 1.
McDonagh has nine points over his last 13 outings. The 35-year-old shutdown defenseman is finding ways to make a positive impact on offense as well, but he'll always take care of his own zone first. He had a total of 31 points, 78 shots on net, 152 blocked shots and a plus-43 rating over 82 regular-season contests, playing in every game for the first time since 2018-19. McDonagh is the Lightning's second-most important blueliner behind Victor Hedman.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Two helpers in 1,000th NHL game
McDonagh put up two assists in an 8-0 win over Utah on Thursday.
It was a memorable night for McDonagh, who was playing in his 1,000th NHL game. He has back-to-back two-point games and five points, including four assists, in his last four appearances. McDonagh won't help fantasy managers with power-play production, but it's hard to ignore this warm front.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Three points in last two games
McDonagh put up a goal and an assist in a 6-1 win over the Penguins on Tuesday.
McDonagh's goal was a fluke -- he sent the puck toward the net from the left side and it deflected off the skate of Rickard Rakell and past Tristan Jarry. It stood as the winner. McDonagh has three points (one goal, two assists) in his last three games and 25 points (three goals, 22 assists) in 71 games overall. His fantasy best is behind him, unless you need to pad the somewhat obscure plus-minus category. McDonagh is among the NHL's best with a plus-37.

McDonagh has four assists over his last eight games. He avoided a serious injury after taking a puck to the head Thursday versus the Stars, and he logged 19:45 of ice time Saturday. The defenseman is seeing time on the second power-play unit as well as the second pairing at even strength.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Set to play
McDonagh (head) will play against Utah on Saturday, according to Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun.
McDonagh won't miss any additional playing time after getting hit by the puck in Thursday's 3-2 shootout win over Dallas. He has accounted for two goals, 22 points, 65 shots on net and 133 blocked shots in 68 appearances this season.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Leaves after puck hits head
McDonagh was struck in the head by a puck late in the third period of Thursday's game versus the Stars, Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site reports.
Head coach Jon Cooper did not have an update on McDonagh's status following the contest. If he is able to avoid a concussion, he'll be considered day-to-day until further information is available. The Lightning play at Utah on Saturday and at Vegas on Sunday. They dressed seven defensemen for Thursday's game, so forwards Mitchell Chaffee or Cam Atkinson would be options to rejoin the lineup Saturday if McDonagh can't play.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Records helper Thursday
McDonagh notched an assist, two blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers.
Darren Raddysh was a healthy scratch Thursday, allowing McDonagh to retain a power-play role. McDonagh delivered in that spot -- he helped out on Gage Goncalves' first-period tally. This was McDonagh's second helper over four contests. The 35-year-old blueliner has 21 points, a plus-32 rating, 62 shots on net and 128 blocked shots across 65 appearances this season.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Monster blocks against Caps
McDonagh put up five blocks in a 3-1 win over the Capitals on Saturday.
McDonagh recently put up five points (one goal, four assists) on a five-game run earlier in February, but that's not the kind of value he brings to fantasy today. He has 115 blocks this season and is on pace for 160. He also leads the league with a plus-35 rating. McDonagh's game has evolved over time, but he continues to bring value to formats that use these secondary categories.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Riding three-game point streak
McDonagh picked up two assists Saturday in a 6-3 win over the Red Wings.
He also finished with a plus-4 rating. McDonagh is on a surprising three-game point streak, earning three assists and one goal. He won't deliver much in the way of secondary stats, but his plus-28 rating this season is fifth-best in the NHL, and he has 105 blocked shots.

Lightning's Ryan McDonagh: Puts away empty-netter
McDonagh scored an empty-net goal on two shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Senators.
McDonagh ended an 18-game goal drought, during which he had four assists. His empty-netter ended up being the game-winner Tuesday, as the Senators got one back following his freebie.

McDonagh continues to handle top-four minutes, though mostly in a defensive capacity.
