Player Notes

  • Sitting out with illness
    Hyman (illness) won't play Tuesday versus the Golden Knights.

    Advice: Hyman can be considered day-to-day beyond Tuesday's contest. His absence will likely give Sam Gagner a chance to return to the lineup. Hyman has seven points over his last three games, so his production will be hard to replace for both the Oilers and fantasy managers. Rotowire.com 35 minutes ago
  • Dealt to Chicago
    Beauvillier was traded from the Canucks to the Blackhawks on Tuesday in exchange for a fifth-round pick, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Advice: Beauvillier was stuck in the bottom six in Vancouver, posting eight points in 22 games. The 26-year-old has a career high of 39 points in a single season, so he could provide some scoring on the wing for a Blackhawks team looking to replace some offense in the absence of Taylor Hall (knee) and Corey Perry (contract terminated).

  • Unavailable for Tuesday's game
    Svechnikov (illness) won't play Tuesday versus the Flyers.

    Advice: Svechnikov has an active four-game point streak (one goal, four assists), so this absence due to illness comes at a rough time. The 23-year-old winger has slowly gotten back up to speed after recovering from ACL surgery, which kept him out of the lineup for the first eight contests of this campaign. Brendan Lemieux will likely be in the lineup Tuesday, while Svechnikov will aim to be healthy again for Thursday's game versus the Islanders. Rotowire.com Today, 4:00 pm
  • Won't play Tuesday
    Tanev (lower body) won't play Tuesday against Chicago, Alison Lukan of Root Sports reports.

    Advice: Tanev is listed as day-to-day after being injured in Friday's 5-1 loss to Vancouver. In eight outings this season, he has supplied two goals, 12 shots on net and 16 hits. Andrew Poturalski will replace Tanev in the lineup. Rotowire.com Today, 10:48 am
  • Brought up to big club
    Studenic was promoted from AHL Coachella Valley on Tuesday.

    Advice: Studenic has likely been recalled to serve as an insurance policy in case Oliver Bjorkstrand (undisclosed) is unable to go Tuesday versus Chicago. Studenic has yet to appear in an NHL contest this year, but he's picked up six goals and 11 points through 15 AHL appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 10:35 am
  • Removed from IR
    Martin (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday.

    Advice: Martin is expected to return to the lineup Tuesday versus New Jersey following a five-game absence. The bottom-six winger has accounted for one goal, one assist, 11 shots on net and 31 hits in 14 outings this season. Rotowire.com Today, 10:01 am
  • Out 6-8 weeks
    Cates is expected to be out of action for six-to-eight weeks because of a lower-body injury.

    Advice: Cates hasn't provided a point in his past 13 outings. He has one goal, three assists, 19 shots on net and 15 blocked shots over 21 contests this campaign. Bobby Brink will be back in the lineup Tuesday against Carolina. Rotowire.com Today, 9:25 am
  • Rises to top level
    Berggren was recalled by the Red Wings on Tuesday, per CapFriendly.

    Advice: Although Berggren's been promoted, at this point it isn't clear if he'll get into the lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Rangers. He's gone scoreless through two NHL appearances this year. Rotowire.com Today, 8:47 am
  • Opens scoring in home win
    Voronkov scored a goal in Monday's 5-2 home win against the Bruins.

    Advice: Voronkov opened the scoring at 15:52 of the first period with a helper from Yegor Chinakhov, getting his team off to a good start against Jeremy Swayman. Voronkov ended up with a plus-3 rating, three shots on goal and a minor penalty with a hit. The 23-year-old forward has managed three goals and eight points across 14 games in the month of November.
