Matt Grzelcyk Good To Go Tuesday

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk (upper body) will be in the lineup on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Flyers. Due to an upper-body injury, Grzelcyk was limited to only five minutes of action on Sunday against the New York Rangers. However, he will not miss any additional time, rejoining Erik Karlsson on the second defensive pairing for Tuesday's game. Grzelcyk is tied for third with 72 blocks on the Penguins roster and has contributed one goal and 27 assists on the offensive end in 59 games. His recent production has not been great, though, as Grzelcyk has posted one assist in six February outings.

Matt Grzelcyk Sustains Upper-Body Injury

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk (upper body) sustained an injury during their loss on Sunday evening against the New York Rangers. The defenseman took a hard hit from New York forward Matt Rempe and did not return to the contest. He logged only five minutes of ice time before the injury and did not get on the scoresheet. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to their next game on Tuesday evening against the Philadelphia Flyers. If Grzelcyk were to miss some time, Vincent Desharnais or Vladislav Kolyachonok could draw into the starting lineup. Across 59 contests with the Penguins, Grzelcyk has tallied 28 points (27 helpers) with 70 shots on goal, 25 hits, and 72 blocked shots.

Matt Grzelcyk Likely Back In Tuesday

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk appears to be back in the lineup for Tuesday's Game 5 versus the Toronto Maple Leafs. The rear guard didn't stay out late during Tuesday's morning skate while Derek Forbort, Kevin Shattenkirk, Jakub Lauko, and Linus Ullmark did. It appears Grzelcyk will take Shattenkirk's spot in the lineup. The 30-year-old didn't appear in either of the two games in Toronto after playing in the series' first two games in Boston. For the season, Grzelcyk tallied two goals and 11 points on 59 shots across 63 games, blocking 76 shots while adding a plus-13 rating to his ledger. The Bruins can win the series with a victory on Tuesday on home ice.

Matt Grzelcyk Considered Day-To-Day Following Wednesday's Exit

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk (leg) is considered day-to-day following his early exit on Wednesday versus Edmonton. He was hurt on his first shift when Grzelcyk was slashed to the leg by Oilers forward Ryan McLeod. The 30-year-old was primed for more responsibility on the Bruins blue line following Hampus Lindholm's (undisclosed) exit from the lineup. The latter has already been ruled out for Boston's four-game road trip, and an injury to Grzelcyk would be a further setback for the team. Grzelcyk has tallied seven points (two goals, five assists) in 43 games this season with 47 shots, 39 hits, and 46 blocks.

Matt Grzelcyk Won't Play On Friday

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk (upper body) will sit out Friday's matchup against Winnipeg. He hasn't joined the team for a brief two-game road trip ahead of the holiday break, so we likely won't see him on Saturday versus the Wild either. Grzelcyk sustained an upper-body injury in a battle with Minnesota on Tuesday. The 29-year-old has massively struggled this season, logging only one point across 20 appearances. Mason Lohrei is set to take over his spot in the lineup on Friday.

Matt Grzelcyk Faces Multi-Week Absence

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk sustained an upper-body injury against Florida on Monday and is expected to be unavailable for at least the next couple of weeks. Grzelcyk has been quiet to start the year, notching only one point in nine games, but he's been accompanying Charlie McAvoy on the top defensive pairing and will be a big miss. McAvoy continued his impressive start to the season with a goal in Monday's 3-2 overtime win, getting to eight points in nine games, and he might not be quite as productive with a new partner.

Matt Grzelcyk A Healthy Scratch For Game 6

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk will be a healthy scratch for Game 6 against Florida. Despite firing five shots on goal across the first three games of the playoffs, Grzelcyk still has yet to register a point. With Grzelcyk out, Connor Clifton will draw back into the Bruins lineup. Grzelcyk registered four goals and 22 assists in 75 contests during his sixth NHL season. He also had 102 shots on goal and collected two game-winning goals as a defenseman.

Matt Grzelcyk Enters Bruins Lineup For Game 3

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk will make his 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs debut in Friday's Game 3 against Florida. The 29-year-old has been a healthy scratch for the first two games of the series, but he is coming in on Friday to replace Connor Clifton. Grzelcyk, who logged 26 points in 75 games during the regular season, is slated to skate with Charlie McAvoy on the first defensive pairing.

Matt Grzelcyk Sits Out Thursday's Game

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk will be a healthy scratch Thursday against Columbus, giving up his spot in the lineup to Jakub Zboril. The 29-year-old is getting a night off after featuring in 68 games so far this season. Grzelcyk's offensive contributions have been limited to four goals and 21 assists, but he is among the league leaders with a superb plus-45 rating. Zboril will see action for only the 19th time this season and he's not someone who should interest fantasy managers.

Matt Grzelcyk Gears Up For Season Debut

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk (shoulder) will make his first appearance of the season Thursday against the Ducks. The 26-year-old has missed the first four games of the season after undergoing shoulder surgery in June. He will take Anton Stralman's spot in the lineup. Grzelcyk doesn't have a lot of fantasy value, but he has shown some offensive ability and is a guy Boston likes to use on the power play. Five of his 24 points came with the man advantage last year. He could find himself playing a more active role in even-strength situations as well, as Brandon Carlo (upper body) and Charlie McAvoy (shoulder) sit on the sidelines.

Matt Grzelcyk Recovering Well, Upgraded To Day-To-Day

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk (shoulder) could play next week. The blueliner had offseason surgery on his shoulder and was initially expected to return in early-to-mid November, but his recovery process is going well and the team officially changed his status to day-to-day on Friday. The 28-year-old posted 24 points in 73 games last year, and could take over the Bruins first powerplay unit until Charlie McAvoy returns, which would significantly increase his fantasy value. He certainly will have some streamer appeal upon his return.

Matt Grzelcyk Sustains An Upper-Body Injury

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk picked up an upper-body injury and wasn't able to complete Sunday's 4-2 loss to Washington. He appeared to have hurt his shoulder early in the game after logging just 3:11 of action. The Bruins haven't yet provided an update. Grzelcyk has put together a 22-point campaign in 65 outings with 106 shots and 73 blocks. His stats won't knock anyone off their feet, but the 28-year-old has been a very important player for Boston and is even tied for the team lead with a plus-21 rating. With Hampus Lindholm (lower body) having also missed a couple of games, the situation at the back is far from ideal for the Bruins.

Matt Grzelcyk A Game-Time Decision On Monday

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk is considered a game-time decision on Monday against L.A. with an upper-body injury. The 28-year-old has already missed six games this season and could be sidelined again. Grzelcyk skates on the second defensive pairing and has also been a regular on the second power-play unit. He's notched 19 points through 51 outings this season with 86 shots, 25 hits and 65 blocks. Jack Ahcan is expected to cover for Grzelcyk if he isn't ready to go. He's gone without a point in his first six career appearances and doesn't really offer anything for fantasy managers.

Matt Grzelcyk Enters COVID-19 Protocols Thursday

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk will not be playing against the Flyers on Thursday, as he was placed on the league's COVID-19 list. The 28-year-old has suited up in 33 games for the Bruins this year. He's collected two goals and 14 helpers during those contests. Grzelcyk averages over 19:00 minutes of total ice time per contest and plays a semi-important role in fantasy hockey. He is rostered in 34% of Yahoo leagues.

Matt Grzelcyk Returns To Action On Tuesday

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk (upper body) will return from a five-game absence in Tuesday's clash with Buffalo. The 27-year-old will join Charlie McAvoy on the top defensive pairing, and he'll be a welcome addition for the power play as well. Six of Grzelcyk's 13 points this season have come with the man advantage. Fellow blueliner Jakub Zboril will also return after missing Sunday's 6-3 win over Washington through illness. Jarred Tinordi and Steven Kampfer will be in the press box. Buffalo's horrible season includes poor penalty-killing efficiency, so Grzelcyk is nicely placed to end a four-game pointless run here.

Matt Grzelcyk Sits Out On Sunday With Injury

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk will miss Sunday's contest against Washington after sustaining an upper-body injury in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Philadelphia. It's been an injury-riddled season for the 27-year-old as he's already been forced to sit out 13 games. Grzelcyk has been a solid member of the Bruins blue line when healthy, collecting 13 points in 25 games while registering 59 shots and 24 blocks with a plus-three rating. Boston is also sitting Kevan Miller here. Jarred Tinordi and Jack Ahcan come in to make up the numbers at the back. The latter will make only his second career appearance.

Matt Grzelcyk Back In The Lineup On Wednesday

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk will be re-inserted back into the lineup as his team hosts the Washington Capitals on Wednesday. The 27-year-old, who had missed the previous seven contests due to a lower-body injury, could return to the Bruins' top defensive pair alongside defenseman Charlie McAvoy. Grzelcyk, known for his ability within the offensive zone, has posted three assists in six games in 2020-2021. Just 21% owned in Yahoo! leagues, Grzelcyk should be monitored in fantasy leagues as his value could increase if he's given minutes on his team's lethal top power-play unit.

Matt Grzelcyk Won't Play On Saturday

Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk (undisclosed) won't suit up for Saturday's clash versus the Flyers with his status labeled as day-to-day. Connor Clifton will enter the lineup, while Charlie McAvoy will take over from Grzelcyk on the top power-play unit. The 23-year-old is pointless so far this season so maybe this will help him get going. The Bruins have done pretty well with the man advantage, recording a 26.3 percent efficiency.
