Several NHL injuries and roster moves ripple through fantasy rosters. Josh Norris will miss a significant stretch for Buffalo with an upper-body injury. Jaccob Slavin is preparing to be evaluated after a limited third period for Carolina. Sam Girard is week-to-week for Colorado with an upper-body issue, and Dmitry Kulikov lands on IR for Florida with a possible surgery ahead.

Pietrangelo is on season-ending LTIR for Vegas, Barkov remains eligible to play (not on LTIR), Dadonov fractures and is out long-term, Trocheck is week-to-week for the Rangers, Rust is back for Pittsburgh, Lorentz exits for Toronto, and Fleury leaves Winnipeg’s game. These moves create shifts in minutes and fantasy value across the league.

Jared McCann ended it in OT, scoring with 3.8 seconds left to lift Seattle to a 2-1 win over Vegas and push the Kraken to a historic 2-0-0 start. Matty Beniers struck in the second, his first of the year and Seattle’s first on the power play, while Pavel Dorofeyev tied it for Vegas on the man-advantage in the third. Joey Daccord stood tall, making 26 saves (4 in OT) as Seattle seized control late and kept Vegas out after regulation.

Seattle’s resilience and goaltending continue to pace the early season, with Daccord flashing peak form and the Kraken finding timely production up and down the lineup. Dorofeyev’s league-leading fifth goal keeps Vegas dangerous, but Seattle’s finish in the final moments locks in a promising start for the franchise.

Utah Mammoth erased last year’s late‑game woes by storming back in Nashville, forcing OT and beating the Predators behind Dylan Guenther’s fourth overtime goal in Mammoth history. McBain’s late regulation marker kept the drama alive as Cooley and Peterka sparked the early offense. The win came amid 26 minutes of penalties and a tense review that wiped out a Predators tally on offside.

Coach André Tourigny praised resilience, stressing that a team doesn’t need its A game to win 50/50 battles, a key step toward a playoff push after last season’s near miss. Durzi’s injury cloud loomed, Forsberg kept Nashville alive with a tying strike, and Josi’s goal was overturned on a Mammoth challenge. Still, Utah’s grit, McBain’s strong top‑line push in Hayton’s absence, and Guenther’s clutch encore define a promising arc.

The result signals a shift in Utah’s trajectory and a reminder that adversity can be a catalyst for growth as the season unfolds.

Detroit raced past Toronto 6-3, flashing speed and depth as DeBrincat set up Kasper and Larkin fed Raymond to spark a comeback, while Kane’s late first-period strike swung the momentum. Domi evened things before the third, and Detroit closed with late power play and empty-netters. Ekman-Larsson moved to the right side on the bottom pair to mixed results, while Järnkrok and Roy pounced on turnovers for the early goals. The rematch is moved to 2 p.m. Monday at Scotiabank Arena, streamed on Amazon Prime.
