The Jets have signed Dominic Toninato to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Wild have re-signed Jordan Greenway to a two-year extension worth $4.2 million ($2.1M AAV).
Greenway set a new career-high with 28 points (8G / 20A) in 67 games in 2019-20. With Kirill Kaprizov coming over from the KHL, Greenway gets pushed down the depth chart, likely limiting him to a third-line role for most of 2021. The big, physical power-forward ranked third on the Wild with 95 hits last year.
The Wild are reportedly trading Ryan Donato to the Sharks for a 2021 third-round pick.
Donato is entering the final year of a two-year deal that pays him $1.9M AAV. With the addition of Nick Bjugstad and Kirill Kaprizov coming over from the KHL, Donato was going to be a fringe roster player in Minnesota. San Jose on the other hand, is in desperate need of some middle-6 wingers. Donato was solid in his 1.5 years in Minnesota, scoring 18 goals with 21 assists (39 points) in 84 games.
Line Change
Donato will come out of the Wild lineup for Game 3.
Line Change
Toninato is expected to draw into the Panthers lineup for Game 3.
Line Change
Toninato will be a healthy scratch in Game 2.
The Predators signed Cole Smith to a one-year, two-way contract.
Smith was an undrafted free agent forward out of the University of North Dakota. The 24-year-old finished his senior season with 11 goals and seven assists (18 points) in 34 games for the Fighting Hawks.
The Flames signed Connor Mackey to a one-year entry-level contract on March 20th.
Mackey was an undrafted free agent who just finished his junior year at Minnesota State University, where he led all of their blueliners with 24 points (7G / 14A) in 36 games. He was named WCHA First team All-Star and finished with a league-high plus-19 rating while helping the Mavericks to a league-best 31-5-2 record.
Ellis (concussion) will play in Chicago on Friday.
Ellis (concussion) is questionable to play in Chicago on Friday.
Weber (ankle) will play in Detroit on Tuesday.
Canadiens coach Claude Julien said there's a possibility Weber (ankle) plays on Tuesday in Detroit. Weber is just two weeks into what was originally projected to be a 4-6 week recovery.
Weber is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with an ankle sprain.
Weber (lower-body) is in danger of missing the rest of the 2020 regular season.
According to Nick Kypreos, Weber's season is likely over and his future is in question. The injury is reportedly related to his foot that was surgically repaired in 2018 and could require further surgery.
Weber (lower-body) is expected to miss at least one more week.
Weber will not play Monday vs. the Coyotes, won't travel on their brief two-game road trip (@BOS and @PIT) and is doubtful to play vs. the Stars when they return home on Saturday. So far, so good without Weber though, the Habs have gone 2-0 with two OT victories without their captain.
Weber will miss at least one week with a lower-body injury; will be placed on IR.
Weber missed Wednesday's practice and when head coach Claude Julien met with the media this morning he announced that Weber will go on IR, meaning he misses at least one week. With Weber out, the Canadiens have recalled Xavier Ouellet from Laval (AHL).
Line Change
Donato will be a healthy scratch on Wednesday.
With Mikko Koivu returning from an illness, Donato will sit as a healthy scratch vs. the Red Wings. Donato has scored one goal with one assist in his last eight games.
Toninato (illness) is expected to play Monday in Minnesota.
Toninato was a late-scratch Saturday in Detroit but is expected to play tonight in his home state. He has been playing with quality linemates (Hoffman & Vatrano) lately and comes in with three assists in his last four games.
Line Change
Donato will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday.
Donato was bumped to the fourth line with Jason Zucker back on Sunday but will come out of the lineup tonight in Pittsburgh. Donato, who has been held pointless in his last five games, will be replaced by Victor Rask in Pittsburgh.
