    Kochetkov has won his last six starts, stopping 133 of 147 shots. He has a 7-1-0 record with a 2.51 GAA and an .896 save percentage over eight appearances this season. Vegas ranks second in the league with 4.36 goals per game in 2024-25.

  • Owen Power D | BUF

    Sabres' Owen Power: Chips in two helpers

    Power contributed two assists and three blocked shots in a 7-5 loss to the Canadiens on Monday.

    Power had a minus-4 rating across 22:41 of ice time in the defeat. He has accounted for three helpers in his last two outings after going three straight games without a point. Power has generated three goals and nine assists through 16 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Supplies two points in defeat

    Dahlin scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Monday's 7-5 loss to Montreal.

    Dahlin has registered two goals and four assists during his four-game point streak. He has heated up offensively following a sluggish start to the season. The 24-year-old defender has three goals and 13 points in 16 appearances this campaign.

  • Tommy Novak C | NSH

    Predators' Thomas Novak: Ruled out for Monday

    Novak (upper body) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Avalanche, Predators Radio Host Max Herz reports.

    Novak participated in Monday's morning skate but will be unavailable for a fourth consecutive game. However, he seems to be getting closer to returning to game action, and his next opportunity to do so will be Thursday in Edmonton.

  • Alex Tuch RW | BUF

    Sabres' Alex Tuch: Earns two assists Monday

    Tuch registered two assists in a 7-5 loss to Montreal on Monday.

    Tuch had a hand in goals by Tage Thompson (lower body) and Dylan Cozens while adding one shot on net in 20:27 of ice time. The 28-year-old Tuch has contributed one goal and four helpers in his last five outings. He has four goals and 14 points through 16 appearances this season.

  • Capitals' Michael Sgarbossa: Recalled by Washington

    Sgarbossa was recalled from AHL Hershey on Monday.

    Sgarbossa was sent to the AHL on Sunday but will rejoin the Capitals a day later. He was productive during Saturday's 8-1 road win over St. Louis, tallying a goal and an assist in 11:25 of ice time.

  • Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Returns to practice Monday

    Grubauer (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday, Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network reports.

    Head coach Dan Bylsma said after Monday's practice session that he isn't yet sure whether Grubauer will be able to return to the lineup for Tuesday's home game against Columbus since the goaltender is still undergoing evaluation. However, it was encouraging to see Grubauer return to practice after he was forced to miss Friday's game against Vegas due to an accident he suffered while at home.

  • Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Summoned from minors

    Martin was recalled from AHL Chicago on Monday.

    Martin is back with the big club after a brief trip to the minors Sunday. He made 23 saves on 28 shots in Saturday's 6-4 loss to Colorado. Due to the absence of Frederik Andersen (lower body), Martin will probably occupy the backup role behind Pyotr Kochetkov in Monday's road game against Vegas.

  • Mark Stone RW | LV

    Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Unavailable Monday

    Stone (lower body) won't play Monday against Carolina, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

    Stone will miss his second straight game and is day-to-day. He hasn't been ruled out yet for Vegas' upcoming two-game road trip. Stone has compiled six goals, 21 points, 26 shots on net and seven blocked shots in 13 appearances this campaign. Due to Stone's absence, Nicolas Roy will likely remain on the top line versus the Hurricanes.

  • Golden Knights' Victor Olofsson: Won't travel for upcoming road trip

    Head coach Bruce Cassidy said Monday that Olofsson (lower body) won't travel with the Golden Knights during their upcoming road trip, which begins Wednesday in Anaheim, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

    Cassidy said that he thinks Olofsson has "turned a corner" in his recovery process, but he still needs time before he's in the mix to return to game action, and he'll be unavailable for at least three more games. A better idea of Olofsson's return timetable could come into focus once he gets back on the ice for practice and ramps up his activity level.
