Wyatt Johnston Scores Twice In Win Over Blues

Dallas Stars center Wyatt Johnston potted two goals in Wednesday's 5-2 victory over St. Louis. He opened the scoring with an even-strength tally 5:49 into the game and had a power-play marker in the second period. Having scored 23 goals, Johnston is the most prolific Stars rookie in front of the net since James Neal […]

Bo Naylor Hits Grand Slam

Cleveland Indians catcher prospect Bo Naylor went 1-for-6 with a grand slam on Wednesday for Triple-A Columbus. The 23-year-old has been off to a slow start on the farm with a .225 batting average, but he has come through with three homers and 13 RBI over 40 at-bats. When he is at the top of […]

Ryan Hartman Suspended For Thursday

Minnesota Wild forward Ryan Hartman will be forced to sit out the team's regular-season finale on Thursday against Nashville due to a suspension. He received a one-game suspension for interfering with Nikolaj Ehlers of the Winnipeg Jets in Tuesday's 3-1 loss. Hartman delivered Ehlers a huge open-ice hit when he was without the puck. The […]

Sam Bennett Won't Return Thursday

Florida Panthers center Sam Bennett (groin) will miss a 12th straight game as the team wraps up the regular season Thursday against Carolina. He's been out of action for three weeks and hasn't progressed as well as the team hoped. It's also unclear if Bennett will be ready to play at the start of the […]

Dylan Larkin Could Return For Season Finale

Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin (lower body) missed Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Carolina, but the team is "hopeful" that he can return for Thursday's season finale against Tampa Bay. Andrew Copp took over the first-line center role Tuesday and will likely fill it again against the Lightning if Larkin isn't ready to return. The […]

David Krejci Expected To Be Fine For Game 1

Boston Bruins center David Krejci (lower body) is expected to be ready for the start of the playoffs. The veteran has missed the past five games and won't play against Montreal on Thursday either, but he is set to be back for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs first round, which is great news […]

Boone Jenner Ruled Out For Rest Of The Season

Columbus Blue Jackets center Boone Jenner (back) has been ruled out for the team's final two games of the 2022-23 regular-season campaign. He was a late scratch for Tuesday's contest against Philadelphia and will be kept out of action for the rest of the way with a back issue. Jenner managed 26 goals and 45 […]

Elias Pettersson Surpasses 100 Points

Vancouver Canucks forward Elias Pettersson became only the sixth player in franchise history with a 100-point season on Tuesday, handing out two assists in a 3-2 win over Anaheim. Daniel Sedin was the last Vancouver player to hit the mark in 2010-11. Pettersson is the 11th player in the league this season to record at […]

Jack Hughes Sets New Devils Scoring Record

New Jersey forward Jack Hughes made history in Tuesday's 6-2 win over Buffalo, picking up his 97th point of the campaign to set a new franchise record. Patrik Elias had held the record with 96 points since 2000-01. Hughes managed to beat him with a 43-goal, 54-assist effort in 77 games. Can Hughes now become […]

Mason McTavish Suffers An Upper-Body Injury

Anaheim Ducks forward Mason McTavish was forced to leave Tuesday's game against Vancouver early due to an upper-body injury. He scored a power-play goal late in the first period but was able to log only 8:09 of ice time in the game. He could be done for the season now, with Anaheim facing L.A. in […]

Aleksej Pokusevski Will Not Suit Up In Play-In Game

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Aleksej Pokusevski (knee) was out from Dec. 27 to March 28, he played three games, and then has been out again since. The third-year big man is unlikely to suit up for any of their play-in games, as he still hasn't been fully healthy after the lengthy absence. He's still dealing […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Posts Strong Performance In Overtime Loss

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns did everything he possibly could to try and lead the team to the seventh seed on Tuesday night. The 27-year-old registered 24 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, and three blocks while shooting 8-for-12 from the floor and 2-for-4 from deep. Minnesota probably would have benefited if Towns took more shots […]

Anthony Davis Feasts On Minnesota

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis had a field day against Minnesota with Rudy Gobert (suspension) out of the lineup. During their overtime play-in win, Davis registered 24 points, 15 rebounds, four assists, two steals, and three blocks while shooting 10-for-19 from the floor and 4-for-6 from the line. Without the looming inside presence of […]

Bam Adebayo Falls Just Short Of Double-Double

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo fell short of a double-double in Tuesday's play-in loss to Atlanta, finishing with 12 points and nine rebounds. However, he also had three steals and two blocks, so he still had a solid showing. Outside of Adebayo and Kyle Lowry, Miami's offense had trouble getting things going. But the Heat […]

Anthony Davis Available Against Minnesota

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) is officially active on Tuesday night versus Minnesota. There wasn't really any doubt AD would miss this one, especially with the LA looking to advance. The 30-year-old averaged 38 points, 11 boards, and two blocks in two games against the Timberwolves this season, so he's expected to thrive, […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Available For Play-In Game

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) will play on Tuesday against the Lakers. KAT had been listed as questionable because of nagging calf soreness. However, his availability was never truly in jeopardy, especially with a pivotal play-in matchup on the horizon. With Rudy Gobert (suspension) out, he'll slide over to his natural spot at the […]

William Contreras Absent From Tuesday's Lineup

Milwaukee Brewers backstop William Contreras is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's matchup against the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to MLB.com. The catcher hasn't found his swing yet this season, as he owns just a .720 OPS with no home runs but is batting .310. Victor Caratini will take his place behind the plate and […]

Larry Nance Jr. Questionable Versus Thunder

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Larry Nance Jr. (ankle) is questionable to play Wednesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Nance is dealing with ankle soreness, but was able to practice with the team on Tuesday. If Nance is unable to go, Jaxson Hayes and Willy Hernangomez will likely split the backup center minutes behind Jonas Valanciunas.

Julius Randle A Limited Participant In Practice On Tuesday

New York Knicks forward Julius Randle (ankle) participated in a part of practice on Tuesday but he didn't go through any contact drills. Head coach Tom Thibodeau said that he did "some running, shooting, scripting, that sort of thing." The progress is nice to see ahead of their first-round matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. If […]

Sean Murphy Hitting Cleanup Again Tuesday

Atlanta Braves catcher Sean Murphy is hitting cleanup again for the team on Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds and right-hander Luis Cessa. Murphy has earned another day in the cleanup spot after going 3-for-4 with two doubles and a walk-off home run out of the spot against the Reds on Monday. The 28-year-old will be […]

J.T. Realmuto Returns To Starting Lineup On Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto will return to the starting lineup on Tuesday as the club takes on the Miami Marlins and left-hander Jesus Luzardo. Monday was a routine day off for the veteran who started eight of the club's first nine games of the season. Following a productive performance for Team USA at the […]

David Krejci Won't Return During The Regular Season

Boston Bruins center David Krejci (lower body) has been ruled out for the rest of the regular season. He will miss a fifth straight game Tuesday against Washington and won't play Thursday versus Montreal either. After spending last season in Europe, the Czech veteran has produced an impressive comeback campaign in 2022-23, recording 56 points […]

Jack Eichel Remains Out Tuesday

Vegas Golden Knights center Jack Eichel (lower body) will remain out for a second consecutive game Tuesday versus Seattle. The team considers him day-to-day, so Eichel shouldn't be out for long, but it's unclear if he will feature in the regular season again. Vegas completes its schedule Thursday with another game against the Kraken. Before […]

John Collins Back From One-Game Absence

Atlanta Hawks forward/center John Collins (back) will return from a one-game absence Tuesday against Miami. He was rested Sunday versus Boston with lower back tightness. Collins took a significant step back in his play during the 2022-23 regular season, putting up the second-fewest points in his career and averaging a career-low 6.5 rebounds. Can he […]
