Robby Fabbri Lands On Injured Reserve
Anaheim Ducks forward Robby Fabbri (lower body) has been placed on Injured Reserve. Fabbri has skated in all 14 games this season but is now looking at a spell on the sidelines. The 28-year-old has been quiet in 2024-25, recording two goals and zero assists with 13 shots on goal. Mason McTavish (upper body) is also dealing with an injury, meaning Anaheim's attack might have a significantly different look against Vegas on Wednesday. The injuries could give Cutter Gauthier a chance to move up from the fourth line.

Dustin Wolf Cools Off Kings Monday
Calgary Flames goaltender Dustin Wolf produced 28 saves in Monday's 3-1 victory over the L.A. Kings. The Kings had scored multiple goals in nine straight games before running into Wolf, who improved to 5-2-1 for the year. He's gone three starts without a regulation defeat, logging a 2.84 goals-against average and a .913 save percentage in eight appearances. Wolf endured a couple of rough nights at the end of last month but has bounced back in style. His next start will likely come on Friday versus the struggling Predators. Dan Vladar should be between the sticks for Tuesday's matchup against Vancouver.

Mason Marchment Erupts For Five Points Versus Pittsburgh
Dallas Stars left wing Mason Marchment did his best Wayne Gretzky impression on Monday versus Pittsburgh, producing five points in a 7-1 road victory. A six-goal first period yielded four points for Marchment, and he added one more late in the third frame, finishing with one goal and four assists. Two of the helpers came on the power play. Marchment missed one game with an undisclosed injury last week, but it's safe to say there's nothing wrong with him anymore. Monday's huge scoring outburst helped Marchment become a point-per-game player. In 13 appearances, he has produced three goals and 10 assists this campaign. However, Marchment has posted points in back-to-back outings just once, so fantasy managers should tame their expectations ahead of Thursday's clash with Boston.

Cole Caufield Takes Over Goal-Scoring Lead
Montreal Canadiens winger Cole Caufield contributed two goals as the team earned a 7-5 victory over Buffalo with a late comeback on Monday. Both goals came on the power play, with Caufield's second tally of the contest ending up as the game-winning goal. Caufield, who finished last month with a four-game goal streak, hadn't yet produced any points in November until Monday. He took over the goal-scoring lead in the league, reaching 12 goals in 16 games. The young winger has put in impressive work in front of the net, but he's had only one assist so far, which may disappoint some fantasy managers. It should also be noted that Caufield's shooting percentage currently sits at a sky-high 29.3, more than double his career average.

Nick Suzuki Ends Dry Spell With Four-Point Effort
Montreal Canadiens center Nick Suzuki amassed four points in Monday's high-scoring 7-5 victory over Buffalo. The Canadiens captain kicked things off with a power-play assist in the second period, added two even-strength goals to his name before the second intermission, and wrapped things up with another assist on Christian Dvorak's empty-net goal late in the game. The big performance ended a four-game scoring drought for Suzuki. He's had a difficult time this month, but Suzuki's overall form has been solid in 2024-25. He's on 17 points (six goals, 11 assists) through 16 outings, having posted six multi-point games. Montreal will need another top-class performance from its leading scorer in Thursday's tough matchup against Minnesota.

Jack Eichel Has Two Points In Losing Effort
Vegas Golden Knights center Jack Eichel registered a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-2 defeat to Carolina. He bagged an even-strength goal at the start of the third period and delivered a power-play assist in the final minute of play. This was Eichel's third consecutive multi-point effort. A haul of eight points in three games has pushed his season's tally to 24 points (five goals, 18 assists). Through 15 outings, Eichel has been kept off the score sheet only three times. Colorado's Nathan MacKinnon and Minnesota's Kirill Kaprizov are the only players with more points than Vegas' American star.

Seth Jarvis Nursing An Upper-Body Injury
Carolina Hurricanes forward Seth Jarvis missed Monday's game against Vegas with an upper-body injury. He was sidelined for the first time this season. It's been a highly successful campaign for Jarvis, who has registered four goals and seven assists with 16 hits in 13 appearances. Jarvis' absence allowed Tyson Jost to make his season debut on Monday. William Carrier moved up to the third line. Neither player offers fantasy value, although Jost scored in Monday's 5-2 win, finishing with two shots, one block, and one hit in 7:00 of ice time.

Anthony Mantha To Undergo Season-Ending Knee Surgery
Calgary Flames right wing Anthony Mantha (knee) will miss the rest of the season. The team announced on Monday that Mantha is set to have an ACL surgery this week. Mantha joined the Flames as a free agent on a one-year deal in the summer and looked promising through his first outings with the team. In 13 appearances, Mantha amassed four goals and three assists with 16 hits and a plus-six rating. He was injured on Nov. 5 against Montreal. Kevin Rooney has replaced Mantha in the lineup. He scored his first goal of the campaign in Monday's 3-1 win over Los Angeles, but Rooney has a limited role on the team and doesn't provide value for fantasy managers.

Mattias Samuelsson Injured On Monday
Buffalo Sabres defenseman Mattias Samuelsson (lower body) was limited to 6:49 of ice time in Monday's 7-5 loss to Montreal. He was back in the lineup after sitting out three games as a healthy scratch, but unfortunately, Samuelsson's day at the office was very brief. The Swedish rearguard has managed one goal, 15 shots, 14 blocks, and 23 hits in 13 appearances this season. Henri Jokiharju and Dennis Gilbert are the candidates to step in for Samuelsson if he can't play on Thursday versus St. Louis.

Tage Thompson Suffers A Lower-Body Injury Monday
Buffalo Sabres forward Tage Thompson suffered a lower-body injury Monday afternoon against Montreal. He was limited to 6:49 of ice time in the game. Before making an early exit, Thompson was able to extend his goal streak to four games. The 27-year-old is among the league's top goal-scorers this season with 11 markers. Additionally, Thompson has produced seven assists in 16 games. Ryan McLeod could land a top-six job if Thompson is forced to miss additional time. Buffalo returns to action on Thursday versus St. Louis.

Ryan Poehling Ready To Return On Monday
Philadelphia Flyers center Ryan Poehling (upper body, personal) has been activated from Injured Reserve and is poised to rejoin the lineup against San Jose on Monday. He's been out for three games with an upper-body injury while also dealing with a family matter. Poehling's work includes five assists, eight shots, 20 blocks, and seven hits in 12 outings this season. He will center the third line on Monday, with Anthony Richard and Matvei Michkov skating next to him. Morgan Frost will exit the lineup as a healthy scratch. Michkov's presence on his line will boost Poehling's fantasy appeal on Monday, especially since it's a favorable matchup against a team that allows 3.44 goals per game.
Yesterday
Matvei Michkov Returns To Flyers Lineup Monday
Philadelphia Flyers right wing Matvei Michkov is expected to return to the lineup on Monday versus San Jose. He has been a healthy scratch for the past two games. Sitting on 10 points (four goals, six assists) through his first 13 career appearances, Michkov is tied with Travis Konecny for the scoring lead on the Flyers roster, but he has struggled to make a positive impact during even-strength play. The 19-year-old has notched only three even-strength points and carries a minus-eight rating. Monday's matchup offers Michkov a good opportunity to improve his numbers, as the Sharks have allowed the sixth-most even-strength goals in the league this campaign.

Jamie Drysdale Placed On Injured Reserve
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Jamie Drysdale (upper body) has been placed on Injured Reserve. He was already ruled out for Monday's game against San Jose, with Flyers head coach John Tortorella saying that Drysdale is "dinged up." Now it's clear that Philadelphia will be without Drysdale for at least three games. He's eligible to return to the lineup on Nov. 18 against Colorado. Drysdale has logged three points (one goal, two assists), 12 shots, and 28 blocks through 15 games this season. Veteran Erik Johnson comes into the lineup as his replacement.
Yesterday
Tommy Novak Remains Out On Monday
Nashville Predators center Tommy Novak (upper body) will miss a fourth straight game on Monday versus Colorado. Novak participated in the morning skate but isn't quite ready to go yet. His next chance to return comes on Thursday against Edmonton. Novak's absence isn't a big miss for the Predators, as he has struggled for form this season. After posting back-to-back 40-point campaigns, the 27-year-old has totaled only three goals and four points in 12 appearances.
Yesterday
Mark Stone Misses A Second Consecutive Game
Vegas Golden Knights right wing Mark Stone (lower body) will remain sidelined for Monday's tilt against Carolina. The veteran star is battling a lower-body injury, sitting out a second consecutive game. Stone tends to be injury-prone, but he had skated in all 13 games this season before missing Friday's matchup against Seattle. He's been on fire, posting six goals and 15 assists. Due to Stone's absence, Nicolas Roy has been elevated to the top line. Roy produced a two-point outing on Friday and will remain a good fantasy option until Stone returns. He's on 10 points (four goals, six assists) in 14 games for the season.

Cayden Primeau Penciled In As Starter Monday
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Cayden Primeau will make his first start of the month in Monday's matinee against Buffalo. It's his fifth start overall this campaign, with Primeau sporting a 1-2-1 record. The 25-year-old has had a tough time, allowing three or more goals in all of his appearances. Primeau has a 4.38 goals-against average and a .861 save percentage for the year. The Sabres aren't among the strongest teams in the league, but they will still pose a big threat to Primeau and the Canadiens. Buffalo will host Monday's game after racking up three consecutive wins while scoring 15 goals.

Kirill Kaprizov Extends Road Scoring Streak
Minnesota Wild left wing Kirill Kaprizov continued his terrific campaign with an assist in Sunday's 2-1 overtime loss to Chicago. Setting up Matt Boldy late in regulation, he became the third player in franchise history with a nine-game road point streak. One more point would have put Kaprizov next to Wayne Gretzky as the only two players in NHL history to record multiple points in nine consecutive road games. Kaprizov entered Sunday's action off the back of two consecutive three-point outings on away ice. Minnesota now heads home for a pair of games, but Kaprizov likely can't wait for the next road trip. Out of his 28 points this season, 21 have been scored in road games.

Petr Mrazek Bags Overtime Win Versus WIld
Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Petr Mrazek had a strong outing against the Minnesota Wild on Sunday, kicking away 31 of 32 shots in a 2-1 overtime win. The Czech netminder came very close to his first shutout of the campaign, as Matt Boldy scored for Minnesota with only 4:31 left in regulation. The red-hot Wild were limited to fewer than three goals for only the fourth time this season. Mrazek has picked up some form lately but has been flipping between wins and losses for six starts. He has taken his record to 5-7-0 and boasts a 2.85 goals-against average with a .905 save percentage. These are good numbers from Mrazek, but he's carrying a losing record because the team offense struggles. There are only five teams in the league averaging fewer goals than Chicago.
Yesterday
Mackenzie Blackwood Shuts Out Former Team
San Jose Sharks goaltender Mackenzie Blackwood found an answer to all 44 shots the New Jersey Devils generated against him on Sunday, producing his first shutout of the season in a 1-0 win. Blackwood, a former Devil, improved to 3-4-2 for the season. Life on the Sharks roster tends to be difficult for goalies, but Blackwood has made it look easy lately. All of his three wins have come in his last four starts. Blackwood's goals-against average stands at 3.10, and he has recorded a .910 save percentage. The 27-year-old shares the net with Vitek Vanecek in San Jose and will likely get the night off against Philadelphia on Monday.

Kirill Marchenko Tallies Two Points Sunday
Columbus Blue Jackets right wing Kirill Marchenko picked up a goal and an assist in Sunday's 4-2 loss to Anaheim, logging his fifth multi-point outing of the season. Marchenko helped Yegor Chinakhov to score a power-play goal and lit the lamp himself in an even-strength situation. Skating in his 151st career game, the Russian forward became the second-fastest player in Blue Jackets history to score 50 goals for the team. Six of the goals have come this season, with Marchenko also producing nine assists in 14 games. The Blue Jackets appear to be heading nowhere, but in Marchenko, they boast a big scoring threat who is averaging over a point per game.
