Viktor Arvidsson BOS LW
Bruins' Viktor Arvidsson: Four goals last seven games
12m agoArvidsson scored a goal in a 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders on Tuesday.
He has two goals in his last two games, and four in his last six. After putting up just one assist in his first seven contest, Arvidsson has six points (four goals, two assists) and 23 shots in his last eight games. He's had a couple of rough seasons of late, but he did deliver 59 points, including 26 goals, in 77 games in 2022-23. The Bruins would be more than happy with that kind of output from Arvidsson this year.

Marat Khusnutdinov BOS C
Bruins' Marat Khusnutdinov: Two goals in three games
23m agoKhusnutdinov scored a goal in regulation and the winner in the shootout in a 4-3 victory over the Islanders on Tuesday.
Late in the third, Khusnutdinov came off the wall, picked up a rebound and backhanded the game-tying goal past Ilya Sorokin as he was falling. He has two goals in three games while skating with elite wingman, David Pastrnak. The top-line gig will disappear when Elias Lindholm (lower body) returns, but right now he's week-to-week. Khusnutdinov is a smart pickup right now.

Bo Horvat NYI C
Islanders' Bo Horvat: Now Top-10 NHL Goal Scorer
34m agoHorvat scored two goals in a 4-3 overtime loss to Boston on Tuesday.
Horvat's nine goals this season put him on the NHL's top-10 snipers list. Yes, the top 10. Horvat has three 30-plus goal seasons, including a career-high 38 in 2022-23. His career mark in points (70) also came that season. Horvat has 15 points and 45 shots in 13 games this season -- that puts him on a career pace for goals (57), assists (95) and shots (283). Can he sustain it? Probably not, but he could still break his career mark, and there's plenty of value in that.

Kings' Darcy Kuemper: Tending twine Tuesday
34m agoKuemper will guard the home goal versus the Jets on Tuesday, Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period reports.
Kuemper has allowed nine goals on 88 shots while going 1-1-1 over his last three games. The 35-year-old will make a fourth consecutive start, his longest run between the pipes so far in 2025-26. The Jets are averaging 3.75 goals per game, best in the NHL, which will make this a tough matchup for Kuemper.

Jets' Connor Hellebuyck: Starting against Kings
36m agoHellebuyck will protect the road goal versus the Kings on Tuesday, Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period reports.

Vitali Kravtsov VAN RW
Vitali Kravtsov: Set to return to KHL
9h agoKravtsov is slated to sign a three-year deal with Traktor Chelyabinsk of the KHL, per Rick Dhaliwal of CHEK on Tuesday.
Kravtsov was put on unconditional waivers by Vancouver earlier Tuesday for the purpose of contract termination, and it didn't take long for him to link up with the team he played for in Russia in recent years. The No. 9 overall pick in 2018 accounted for one goal, four points and a minus-7 rating over 10 appearances with AHL Abbotsford this season. Kravtsov recorded 27 goals and 58 points across 66 regular-season games with Traktor in 2024-25, so he should have more success overseas.

Predators' Erik Haula: Buries power-play goal
9h agoHaula scored a power-play goal on three shots in Monday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Canucks.
Haula's offense is heating up again with four points, including two on the power play, over his last four games.

The 34-year-old has three goals, five helpers, 18 shots on net, 22 hits, 18 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 14 contests this season while filling a middle-six role with power-play time.

9h agoDeBrusk scored a power-play goal on six shots and added two hits in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Predators.
DeBrusk ended a four-game point drought with his tally. All three of his goals this season have come with the man advantage. It hasn't led to more consistent offense overall for the winger, but the Canucks myriad of injuries have kept him firmly in a top-six role so far. The 29-year-old is at five points, 42 shots on net, 11 hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 14 appearances.

Bobrovsky has given up three or more goals in four of his last five outings, while posting a 3-2-0 record and a 2.79 GAA.
