Player Notes

  • Earns helper in win
    McNabb notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Panthers in Game 1.

    Advice: McNabb set up his defense partner, Shea Theodore, for a go-ahead goal in the second period. Two of McNabb's three assists this postseason have come in the last four games. The 32-year-old remains primarily a defensive presence on the second pairing. In that role, he's racked up 36 hits, 40 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 17 playoff appearances.

  • Scores in Game 1 win
    Whitecloud scored a goal on two shots and blocked four shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Panthers in Game 1.

    Advice: Whitecloud's third-period tally stood as the game-winner for the Golden Knights. Five of his six points this postseason have come in the team's four series-opening contests. The defenseman isn't the most consistent scorer, but he's provided solid defense from the third pairing with a plus-12 rating, 34 hits and 31 blocked shots through 18 playoff appearances.

  • Collects two points in win
    Theodore scored a goal on three shots, dished a power-play assist and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Panthers in Game 1.

    Advice: Theodore put the Golden Knights ahead 2-1 in the second period with his first goal of the postseason. The defenseman was limited to two assists over six contests in the Western Conference Finals. He's up to nine points, 34 shots, 28 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 17 playoff contests. If Saturday is the performance to get his offense going again, he could be a big difference maker in a top-four role for Vegas. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:08 pm
  • Inks deal in Sweden
    Dahlstrom signed a contract with Farjestad BK of the SHL on Thursday.

    Advice: Dahlstrom sustained a shoulder injury in training camp that cost him six months, so he didn't play in the NHL this season. Over parts of four campaigns, he's logged 12 assists in 67 career games with three different NHL clubs. The Swedish defenseman will return to his home country, though at 28 years old, it's possible he could play his way back to North America. Rotowire.com Thursday, 4:29 pm
  • Set to re-enter draft
    Whynot wasn't signed by the Flames before Thursday's deadline, so the team's NHL negotiating rights with him have expired, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

    Advice: Whynot was selected by Calgary with the No. 89 overall pick in the 2021 NHL Draft, but because he went unsigned, he'll be part of this year's draft as well. The 20-year-old defenseman had three goals and 25 points in 48 contests with QMJHL Halifax in 2022-23. Rotowire.com Thursday, 2:25 pm
  • Injury isn't serious
    Sandin's leg injury isn't believed to be serious, Capitals general manager Brian MacLellan told Tom Gulitti of NHL.com on Thursday.

    Advice: Sandin was hurt when he absorbed a knee-on-knee hit from Team USA's Mikey Eyssimont on May 23 during an IIHF World Championship game. It sounds like Sandin should be fine for training camp in September. He had seven goals and 35 points in 71 outings split between Toronto and Washington in 2022-23. Rotowire.com Thursday, 12:39 pm
  • Agrees to one-year contract
    Woo signed a one-year, two-way contract with Vancouver on Wednesday.

    Advice: Woo had seven goals, 21 points and 96 PIM in 68 contests with AHL Abbotsford in 2022-23. The 22-year-old defenseman has yet to make his NHL debut. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 12:15 pm
  • Sustains long-term injury
    Masters (lower body) is expected to be sidelined for three months after sustaining an injury at the Memorial Cup with WHL Kamloops, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Masters signed his entry-level contract in March and is expected to begin 2023-24 with AHL Iowa. His readiness for the start of the regular season is in doubt, as the long-term nature of his injury will limit his training over the summer. The defenseman was selected 118th overall in 2021. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 8:17 pm
  • Inks one-year deal
    Clurman signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Avalanche on Tuesday.

    Advice: Clurman had three goals and 12 assists while playing in a career-high 57 games for AHL Colorado in 2022-23. This move is little more than taking care of organizational depth for the Avalanche -- Clurman has yet to make his NHL debut after he was selected in the sixth round in 2016.
