Vladimir Sobotka Scores Buffalo's Only Goal At Vegas
Buffalo Sabres forward Vladimir Sobotka scored the team's only goal in Tuesday's 4-1 road loss to Vegas. The Sabres got real close to being shut out for the second time this season, as the goal came with just a little over a half a minute left to play. It's Sobotka's first goal and point in […]
Cody Eakin Scores Third Goal Of The Season
Vegas Golden Knights forward Cody Eakin scored his third goal of the season on Tuesday, with his short-handed marker ending up as the game-winner in a 4-1 result against Buffalo. Eakin has played in only four games, so his goals tally looks really impressive, as does the fact that two of them have been game-winners. […]
William Karlsson Has Three-Point Night
Vegas Golden Knights center William Karlsson picked up three points from the team's 4-1 win over Buffalo on Tuesday, including his first goal of the season. Karlsson exceeded all expectations last year with his 43 goals, so it's no surprise to see his numbers drop. However, he's remained a valuable fantasy option, recording seven points […]
Jonathan Marchessault Scores Twice Versus Sabres
Vegas Golden Knights forward Jonathan Marchessault scored half of the team's goals in a 4-1 win over Buffalo on Tuesday. He started the scoring with a power-play marker at the end of the first period and finished it as well, getting an empty-netter in the dying seconds. The team is off to a bit of […]
Mikael Granlund Extends Point Streak
Minnesota Wild center Mikael Granlund extended his point streak to three games on Tuesday, scoring the team's first goal in a 2-1 home win over Arizona. He now has two goals and four points in five games for the season with 16 shots on goal. It's been a decent start by Granlund, although he'll have […]
Eric Staal Bags Game-Winner On Tuesday
Minnesota Wild center Eric Staal scored the game-winning goal in Tuesday's contest against the Coyotes, winning it 2-1 for the Wild in the third period. He was a man on a mission, finishing with eight shots on goal which is his best mark since Jan. 8, 2017. It's his second goal of the season to […]
Jean-Sebastien Dea Lights Lamp Again Tuesday
New Jersey Devils center Jean-Sebastien Dea scored a goal in his third consecutive outing in Tuesday's 3-0 victory against the Dallas Stars. He has an impressive plus-4 rating during the span, and he has racked up a total of nine shots so far. Dea is making the most of his chances, as his ice time […]
Damian Jones Efficient From Floor In Opening Game
Golden State Warriors center Damian Jones posted 12 points across 27 minutes in Tuesday's 108-100 win against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He was able to snag three rebounds with two assists while registering three blocked shots, and he missed just one of his seven field-goal attempts. Jones is keeping the center spot warm until DeMarcus […]

Steven Adams Will Play Tuesday
Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams (back) will play Tuesday night against the Golden State Warriors. Adams came into today with a questionable tag for his sore back then was later reported as a game-time decision. Adams apparently feels good enough to go for the season opener. With Adams in the lineup, Nerlens Noel will […]
Steven Adams Still A Game-Time Decision
Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams (back) is still a game-time decision for Tuesday night's season opener against the Golden State Warriors. Adams was originally questionable with a sore back, but won't decide on his status until closer to tip-off. Given the late start, this is proving frustrating for owners and those participating in DFS. […]
Jonathan Schoop, Manny Pina In Lineup For Game 4
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Jonathan Schoop and catcher Manny Pina are starting in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series against Dodgers left-hander Rich Hill on Tuesday. Travis Shaw and Erik Kratz will start on the bench. Schoop is hitting sixth and Pina is batting seventh. Schoop is making his first start in the […]
Nick Bjugstad Will Play Versus Flyers
Florida Panthers forward Nick Bjugstad will be in the team's lineup on Tuesday against Philadelphia after shaking off an upper-body injury. Bjugstad, who skates on the team's top line, missed Monday's practice and he was questionable for the game. He's had a pretty quiet start to the season, with his one goal, four shots, and […]
Nico Hischier Good To Go On Tuesday
New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier, who left Monday's practice early, has been given the green light to play on Tuesday against Dallas. According to reports, Hischier hurt his ankle in Sunday's win over San Jose, and that was likely the reason why he didn't feel quite right the day after. It could still affect […]
Alex Galchenyuk Cleared For Contact
Arizona Coyotes center Alex Galchenyuk (lower body) has been cleared for contact. He skated at practice on Tuesday morning. There is no set timetable for his return, but this is a step in the right direction. The 24-year-old became out of favor in Montreal and was looking forward to a fresh start with the 'Yotes. […]
Angels Opt Out of Stadium Lease
The Los Angeles Angels are opting out of their contract with Angels stadium. Club president John Carpino said the team is hoping to find ways to improve the fan experience and that they are looking at all options. It is unclear what this means for the Angels long-term, but it shouldn't have a huge impact […]
Sean Monahan Back On Ice For Tuesday's Practice
Calgary Flames center Sean Monahan was back at practice on Tuesday after taking a maintenance day Monday. Monahan was back in his top-line role alongside Johnny Gaudreau and Elias Lindholm. The 24-year-old has had a strong start to the 2018-19 campaign with four goals, two assists, and three power-play points through five games. Monahan is […]
Andreas Athanasiou Scores Twice In Blowout Loss
Detroit Red Wings center Andreas Athanasiou was one of the lone bright spots during a 7-3 loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Monday night. Athanasiou scored his first two goals of the season to go along with five shots and a +1 rating. The speedy 24-year-old has premium scoring chances in seemingly every game he […]
Steven Adams is Questionable for Season Opener
Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's regular season opener against the Golden State Warriors. Adams is reportedly dealing with lower back stiffness, but it doesn't sound too serious. There is a good chance that Adams is able to play through the issue. Fantasy owners should get a better […]
Larry Nance Jr. Signs Extension with Cavs
Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Larry Nance Jr. has reportedly signed a contract extension. The deal is a four-year $45 million extension to stay in Cleveland. This shows that the Cavs clearly want Nance to be part of their future. He should see plenty of minutes and be heavily utilized in their offense this season. Nance is […]
Draymond Green Will Be Limited First Few Games
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) will be on a minutes restriction to start the season as he builds up his conditioning. Green missed most of the preseason with a sore left knee. Green also went through a precautionary MRI on his knee, but the results came back clean with no structural damage. The […]
Mike Muscala Won't Play in Season Opener
Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Mike Muscala (ankle) has been ruled out of Tuesday's regular season opener against the Boston Celtics. This was not surprising after seeing that Muscala was highly questionable on Monday. We could see Brown use a smaller lineup against the Celtics. T.J. McConnell could end up benefiting the most with Muscala sidelined for […]

Austin Barnes To Catch In Game 4
