Niederreiter wants out of New York. He didn't make the team out of camp, and obviously feels like he should have. He has 36 points in 39 games in the AHL, so right now he has no fantasy value. Keep an eye on this, if he gets traded to a team that gives him an opportunity to play he could become fantasy relevant.
Nyquist is the Red Wings top forward prospect and should produce when he gets called up. He just needs to stay up with the big club to have any fantasy value.
Until Niederreiter cracks the Islanders roster he remains irrelevant in fantasy. However when he does make it keep your eye on him.
Nyquist is likely going to have to wait for an injury to the top 6 before getting the call this season.
Nyquist had one goal and 6 assists in 18 games with the Red Wings this season. He was much more effective in a top 6 role alongside Pavel Datsyuk.
It will be interesting to see how he performs after 22 games off, but as of now he will be playing.
Good news for the Hawks but Toews remains a risky fantasy play after missing the final 22 games of the regular season with a concussion.
Toews is currently practicing on the top line, which could be a good indication that he can play during the playoffs. The Blackhawks' captain previously reported he still had concussion-like symptoms as recently as Saturday.
Toews will not be able to play tomorrow and is questionable for the playoffs as well. Drop him now while you still can.
Toews continues to skate, which is a great sign. He remains an option to play in the Blackhawks' final game.
As we expected, Toews won't play on Thursday. He remains an option to draw in on Saturday.
Not a good indication that Toews will play on Thursday. Check back for an official confirmation from the team.
Sounds like Toews is hoping to play before the end of the season. If he draws in Thursday, he will play two games before the end of the regular season.
Toews continues to progress and should be playing this week.
Toews likely returns within a week for either the last game of the regular season or the first game of the playoffs.
Nyquist moves back onto a scoring line. The rookie has a goal and seven points through 14 games.
Look for Nyquist to stay on the fourth line. He has a goal and seven points in 13 games.
Toews continues to progress but there is no word if he will return during the regular season.
El Nino draws back into the lineup tonight. He scored a goal through 49 games.
Niederreiter is once again a healthy scratch. The rookie has a goal in 49 games.
