The Senators have signed Mark Stone to a one-year deal worth $7.35M.
The Sharks have signed Tomas Hertl to a four-year contract extension.
The Flames acquired Noah Hanifin and Elias Lindholm from the Hurricanes for Dougie Hamilton, Michael Ferland and Adam Fox.
Hanifin is coming off of the best season of his young career, picking up 10 goals and 22 assists (32 points) in 79 games. Playing on the best possession team in hockey, Hanifin had an impressive +2.8 relative Corsi. The 21-year-old is an RFA who the Flames will have to sign this summer. Matt Cane of HockeyGraphs predicts a two-year bridge deal worth $4.672M ($2.336M AAV).
Smith (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision on Saturday.
Hutton (foot) will be back in the Canucks lineup on Thursday.
Hutton has been out since March 14th, but will be back in tonight vs. the Coyotes. Hutton has had a tough season, picking up just six assists and is running out of time to pick up his first goal.
Whitecloud will make his NHL debut on Thursday.
Whitecloud turns pro after two years at Bemidji State University—he had four goals and 15 assists (19 points) in 36 games this season. There’s no word on who Whitecloud will replace in the lineup.
Smith (undisclosed) is still not ready to play on Monday.
Hanifin (concussion) will be back in the lineup on Saturday.
Hagg will be a healthy scratch on Thursday.
Hanifin is out indefinitely with a concussion.
Hanifin missed Sunday’s game in Brooklyn with a concussion that he suffered against the Flyers on Saturday. With just 10 games left in the regular season, there’s a chance that Hanifin’s season could be over. Concussions are tricky and there’s no sense risking him getting hurt with the Hurricanes’ season basically over.
Hanifin (upper-body) will not play on Sunday.
Hagg (lower-body) will be back in the Flyers lineup on Sunday.
Eichel (ankle) will return to the Sabres lineup on Saturday.
The Coyotes have reassigned Adin Hill to Tucson (AHL).
Hill’s return to the AHL suggests that Antti Raanta is set to return from his lower-body injury on Saturday. Hill has gone 14-10-0 with a 2.41 GAA and .911 SV% with the Roadrunners this season.
Smith (undisclosed) will not play on Wednesday.
Smith remains day-to-day with an undisclosed injury and will miss his fourth straight game tonight vs. the Devils. Smith was not on the ice for the morning skate, which clouds his status for Friday’s game vs. the Wild as well.
Eichel (ankle) will not play on Thursday.
Despite practicing on Tuesday and Wednesday, Eichel is not ready to return to the Sabres lineup on Thursday. Regardless, he is obviously getting close to a return to the lineup, so monitor his status heading into Saturday’s game vs. the Blackhawks.
Goalie Start
Hill led the Coyotes onto the ice for warmups.
Stone (leg) will not make the trip to Florida.
Stone suffered a leg injury against the Flames on Friday and won’t travel with the team for Monday’s game. Marian Gaborik is expected to move up the lineup to replace Stone.
Hagg will miss two weeks with a lower-body injury.
Hagg must have suffered an injury in Boston on Thursday and will miss at least two weeks. With Johnny Oduya (undisclosed) also hurt, Travis Sanheim has been recalled from Lehigh Valley (AHL) and will play on Saturday.
