Jack Roslovic Back In The Lineup Tuesday

Columbus Blue Jackets forward Jack Roslovic will return to the lineup for Tuesday's road contest against the St. Louis Blues, the team's final game before the All-Star break and subsequent bye week. The former first-round pick of the Jets was a healthy scratch for the Blue Jackets' 4-2 loss to the Kraken on Sunday but […]

Adam Fantilli Ruled Out Tuesday

Columbus Blue Jackets center Adam Fantilli (leg laceration) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the St. Louis Blues. Fantilli was cut on the leg by a skate against the Seattle Kraken on Sunday and did not return after skating just 7:30 in the contest. It's been a successful rookie season for the 2023 […]

Elvis Merzlikins Back In The Net Tuesday

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Elvis Merzlikins will be back between the pipes for Tuesday's road game in St. Louis. It's been a rocky road for the 29-year-old this season as the club gave an extended look to the younger Daniil Tarasov of late, leading Merzlikins to demand a trade out of Columbus. He then received […]

Devin Shore Clears Waivers

Seattle Kraken forward Devin Shore has cleared waivers and can be assigned to the AHL. The 29-year-old has split the season between Seattle and AHL Coachella Valley as he has just one goal and four points across 21 games in the NHL with three goals and six points across nine contests in the AHL. A […]

The Ottawa Senators have placed forward Roarke Chartier on waivers. The 27-year-old has appeared in 34 games with Ottawa this season, recording two goals and three points along with 14 penalty minutes and a minus-three rating. He has struggled to produce at the NHL level as he has just three goals and four points across […]

San Jose Sharks center Tomas Hertl (lower body) will not dress for Tuesday's contest versus the visiting Seattle Kraken. The veteran temporarily left Saturday's game against the Sabres but did return in the third period to complete the contest.

Myles Turner Questionable With Back Issue

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's encounter with Boston. He's been experiencing mid-back spasms and couldn't play Sunday versus Memphis. However, Turner was in Monday's practice, which is a sign that his absence could be limited to only one game. Boston is struggling with injuries on the frontcourt, so […]

Jusuf Nurkic Will Play Against Heat On Monday

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (thumb) will return on Monday after a quick, one-game absence due to a left thumb sprain. The 29-year-old big man has been a quality asset for fantasy teams this season as he's averaged 11.6 points, 10.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.0 steals, 1.0 blocks, and 2.0 turnovers per game.

San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins (ankle) will miss his second game in a row with right ankle soreness on Monday. He was originally listed as questionable against the Washington Wizards, but he wasn't able to get through some of the pre-game checks to be able to play. With Collins on the mend, Dominick Barlow […]

Tomas Hertl Misses Practice, Could Be Out On Tuesday

San Jose Sharks center Tomas Hertl (undisclosed) missed Monday's practice and might also have to skip Tuesday's clash with Seattle. He was injured in the last game against Buffalo and missed a bit of time. Hertl doesn't expect the injury to keep him out from the All-Star weekend. The Sharks star had a three-game point […]

Brayden Schenn Extends Point Streak With Game-Winner

St. Louis Blues forward Brayden Schenn extended his point streak to five games with the game-winning goal in Sunday's 4-3 overtime victory against Los Angeles. He scored for the fourth time in five games, and Schenn's scoring streak also includes two assists. The veteran has looked like a completely different player out there recently, following […]

Jordan Kyrou Ends Mini-Slump With Three-Point Effort

St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou produced a game-high three points as the team continued its hot streak on Sunday with a 4-3 overtime victory against the Kings. Following a pair of pointless efforts, Kyrou scored his 14th goal of the season and had two assists. It's his third three-point effort of the season. With […]

Adam Fantilli Considered Questionable For Tuesday

Columbus Blue Jackets center Adam Fantilli is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against St. Louis after he suffered a lower-body injury on Sunday versus Seattle.

Pull%: Using Sabermetrics for 2024 Fantasy Baseball

We have previously determined that fantasy managers generally prefer batters to hit the ball into the air to have a chance at a home run. Yet, all fly balls are not equal for this purpose. A player can maximize his power production by pulling the ball in the air. One way to illustrate this is […]

Zach Collins Questionable For Monday

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Zach Collins (ankle) is in danger of missing a second consecutive game, as the team considers him questionable for Monday's matchup versus Washington. Collins came out of the lineup on Saturday versus Minnesota due to right ankle soreness as San Antonio completed a back-to-back. Dominick Barlow has a chance to play […]

Dorian Finney-Smith Ruled Out For Monday

Brooklyn Nets forward/center Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) won't play on Monday versus Utah. Finney-Smith sprained his left ankle versus Houston on Saturday, leaving the Nets without a very versatile piece of the rotation. However, the team will have Cameron Johnson (personal) back in the fold on Monday, and Ben Simmons (back) is expected to play, so […]

Luke Kornet Doubtful For Monday's Game

Boston Celtics center Luke Kornet (hamstring) is considered doubtful for Monday's meeting with New Orleans. The seven-footer exited Saturday's contest against the Clippers due to tightness in his left hamstring, and it appears likely that the same issue will keep Kornet completely sidelined on Monday. As the third big on the depth chart, Kornet doesn't […]

He remains questionable since then, so fantasy […]

Evan Mobley Has A Chance To Return Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (knee) is listed as questionable to play on Monday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. The up-and-coming big man hasn't played since December 6 after undergoing a knee surgery that was slated to keep him out for six to eight weeks. On Friday, reports came out that he could return […]
