Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Leaving road trip
Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said Sunday that Jankowski has ben sent back to Raleigh to have his lower-body injury assessed, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Jankowski was a late scratch for Sunday's 3-2 loss in Calgary and is now unlikely to be available until after Carolina's current road trip concludes, which will be Saturday in St. Louis. As a result of Jankowski returning home, it wouldn't be surprising to see him land on injured reserve in the near future. While the Hurricanes have lost several forwards due to injury recently, the team is expected to have Seth Jarvis (shoulder) return to the lineup soon, as Brind'Amour said Friday that he's hopeful Jarvis will be able to play at some point during this road trip. Nicolas Deslauriers got back into the lineup Sunday due to Jankowski's absence.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Not suiting up Sunday
Jankowski will not play in Calgary on Sunday due to a lower-body injury.
The Hurricanes' forward depth is certainly being tested early in the season, as Jankowski is now one of four forwards unavailable due to injury. The 32-year-old has been red hot lately, scoring a goal in six straight games. The severity of Jankowski's injury is unknown at this time, so he can be considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup in Vancouver.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Stays hot in Saturday's win
Jankowski scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Jets.
The 32-year-old center continued his remarkable run, getting Carolina on the board midway through the second period with a quick shot through traffic past Clay Stevenson. Jankowski has found the back of the net in six straight games -- not bad for a bottom-six player who scored a grand total of 11 goals over 68 regular-season games in 2025-26. Saturday's tally was also Jankowski's first power-play goal since 2017-18 with the Flames, and just the third of his career. He is getting extra shifts and opportunities with Jordan Staal (calf) on the shelf, but shooting at a 40.0 percent rate simply isn't sustainable.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Goal streak at five games
Jankowski score a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Capitals.
Jankowski extended his scoring streak to five games (five goals, one assist). And with news of Jordan Staal's (calf) multi-month absense, the pivot is going to see continued opportunity and ice time. Jankowski's face-off effectiveness is less than ideal (44.4 percent), but he could provide depth offense in deep formats.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Stays hot with insurance goal
Jankowski scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Flyers.
Jankowski has scored in four straight games, and he also has an assist in that span to account for all of his offense on the year. The 32-year-old's hot offense has made him a mainstay in the Hurricanes' bottom six over Nicolas Deslauriers. Jordan Staal (lower body) was out Sunday, allowing Jankowski to move up to the third line. The offense won't last, but Jankowski's defensive efforts and reliable on-ice play make him a fixture in the lineup.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Extends goal streak Saturday
Jankowski tallied a goal and placed three shots on net in Saturday's 5-2 win over Chicago.
Jankowski is currently on fire, as he used Saturday's clash to secure the first three-game goal streak of his 10-year NHL career. Across six games to open the 2026-27 campaign, the 32-year-old winger has four points, seven shots on net, a plus-1 rating and six hits. Since being acquired by the Hurricanes midway through the 2024-25 season, the veteran winger has been turning back the clock and reverting to his previous goal-scoring ways. If he can carry his current momentum into the rest of the 2026-27 regular season, Jankowski could be in for his third-consecutive campaign with double-digit goals.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Scores again in Thursday's win
Jankowski scored a goal on two shots and added four hits in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Canucks.
Jankowski has three points this season, all coming over the last two games. He's added four shots on net, six hits, two blocked shots and a plus-1 rating across five appearances. Jankowski's place in the bottom six looks secure for now, as it's more likely for Jesperi Kotkaniemi or Nicolas Deslauriers to be out of the lineup as the healthy scratch.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Two-point effort in win
Jankowski produced a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Canadiens.
The checking-line center helped set up Eric Robinson for a tally midway through the first period before potting his own in the second. The points were the first of the season for Jankowski, and he doesn't offer much fantasy appeal given his role -- the 32-year-old put together 11 goals and 21 points over 68 regular-season games in 2025-26 during his first full season with the Hurricanes.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Finds twine for tying goal
Jankowski scored a goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Golden Knights in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals.
Jankowski's tally helped the Hurricanes erase a 2-0 deficit. It was his first goal of the postseason, to go with four assists, 12 shots on net, 14 hits, 12 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 15 appearances. Jankowski is firmly locked in as the Hurricanes' fourth-line center, so there won't always be a ton of scoring chances for him.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Provides two assists in win
Jankowski logged two assists in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canadiens in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
Jankowski had a hand in the first and last goals of the contest. The 31-year-old center hasn't scored a goal this postseason, but he's picked up three assists over 10 outings while adding seven shots on net, 11 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-1 rating. Jankowski continues to be a key part of the Hurricanes' bottom six and penalty kill, and that role was enough to get him a two-year contract extension May 11.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Inks two-year extension
Jankowski signed a two-year, $3.7 million contract extension with the Hurricanes on Monday.
Jankowski put together a solid campaign during his first full year with the Hurricanes in 2025-26, logging 11 goals, 10 assists, 45 hits and 45 blocked shots while averaging 11:09 of ice time across 68 regular-season appearances.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Deposits game-winner
Jankowski scored a goal and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Islanders.
Jankowski has three goals over his last three games. The 31-year-old played a larger role while the Hurricanes rotated some players out of the lineup over the last week of the season. Expect Jankowski to be a regular on the fourth line in the playoffs, though Jesperi Kotkaniemi could come in if Jankowski struggles. Over 68 appearances this season, Jankowski produced 21 points -- the most he has had since his 32-point year with the Flames in 2018-19. He also added 63 shots on net, 45 hits, 45 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating across 68 appearances.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Returning to action Monday

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' Mark Jankowski: Unavailable Saturday
Jankowski (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup against the Mammoth on Saturday.
Jankowski has 10 goals, 20 points, 61 shots on net, 41 blocked shots and 44 hits in 66 contests this season. He is day-to-day and probably getting some rest ahead of the start of the playoffs.

Hurricanes' Mark Jankowski: Deposits pair of goals in win
Jankowski scored two goals and placed two shots on net in Thursday's 7-2 win over Chicago.
Jankowski posted his first multi-goal game of the season Thursday by posting Carolina's fourth and seventh tallies of the landslide victory. His pair of twine finders helped him reach 10 goals on the season, making it the fourth time he has hit double-digit goals during his nine-year NHL career. Overall, he has 20 points, 61 shots on net, 44 hits and 41 blocked shots across 66 games this season. Jankowski has stepped up his game down the stretch with five goals over his last 16 games, giving him some fantasy viability in deep leagues.

Jankowski has three goals over his last seven outings.
