Welcome to the NHL Status Report. Here is the latest lineup/injury news around the NHL.

Dallas Stars

Jamie Benn could make his season debut for the Stars against the New York Islanders at American Airlines Center in Dallas on Tuesday (8 p.m. ET; Victory+, MSGSN2). The captain has not played this season because of a punctured lung but has been skating. … The Stars on Monday placed forwards Matt Duchene (undisclosed) and Adam Erne (lower body) on long-term injured reserve, retroactive to Oct. 18 and Nov. 11, respectively. … Thomas Harley is week to week because of a lower-body injury. The defenseman, who has 10 points (one goal, nine assists) in 18 games, missed a 5-1 win against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday after he had an assist in 21:25 of ice time in a 7-0 win at the Montreal Canadiens on Nov. 13.

Toronto Maple Leafs

Auston Matthews (lower body) will miss at least two more games, Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving said Tuesday, when the forward skated before practice for the first time since sustaining his injury Nov. 11. Toronto hosts the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday (7 p.m. ET; TVAS, TSN4, FDSNMW) and the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday. “He’s coming along,” Treliving said. “He skated this morning. Again, we’ve listed him as day to day, [and he’s] obviously not going to play tonight. I would suspect Thursday is probably not a possibility. Probably after Thursday, at least we get a little bit better sense of how things are responding. I don’t anticipate too, too long, but probably Tuesday and Thursday are out of the question.” … Brandon Carlo (lower body) and Nicolas Roy (upper body) also will not play against the Blues. The Maple Leafs recalled forward Jacob Quillan from Toronto of the American Hockey League and placed Carlo, a defenseman, on injured reserve on Monday, retroactive to Nov. 13.

Seattle Kraken

Joey Daccord has been activated from injured reserve and will start against the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday (7 p.m. ET; FDSNDETX, KHN/Prime, KONG). The goalie missed five games because of an upper-body injury sustained during a 6-1 loss to the San Jose Sharks on Nov. 5. Matt Murray, who started three of the five games Daccord was out, will miss approximately six weeks because of a lower-body injury sustained during the first period of a 4-1 win against the Sharks on Saturday.

Tampa Bay Lightning

Anthony Cirelli (upper body) and Dominic James (undisclosed) likely will return against the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday (7 p.m. ET; The Spot, MSGSN, NHLN, SNP, SNO, SNE). Cirelli, a center, hasn’t played since Nov. 6; he has 11 points (seven goals, four assists) in 14 games. James, a forward, has been out since Nov. 8. He has four points (one goal, three assists) in nine games.

New Jersey Devils

Dougie Hamilton, Evgenii Dadonov and Connor Brown traveled with the Devils for their three-game road trip and will be game-time decisions at Tampa Bay on Tuesday (7 p.m. ET; The Spot, MSGSN, NHLN, SNP, SNO, SNE). Hamilton, a defenseman, sustained a lower-body injury during a 4-3 overtime win against the Canadiens on Nov. 6. Dadonov, a forward, hasn’t played since he fractured his hand in New Jersey’s season opener at Carolina on Oct. 9. Brown, a forward, sustained an upper-body injury during a 5-2 loss at the San Jose Sharks on Oct. 30.

St. Louis Blues

Jake Neighbours is with the Blues for a five-game road trip that begins at Toronto on Tuesday (7 p.m. ET; TVAS, TSN4, FDSNMW). The forward sustained an injury to his right leg during a 6-4 loss at the Detroit Red Wings on Oct. 25 and was expected to be out at least five weeks. Neighbours will not play Tuesday. “He is going on the trip and expect him to play at some point on the trip,” coach Jim Montgomery said Monday. “I think if he’s ahead of schedule, it’s like three days. It was minimum of four weeks, we thought maximum five.” Neighbours has seven points (six goals, one assist) in eight games this season.

Pittsburgh Penguins

Tristan Jarry (lower body) practiced Tuesday for the first time since the goalie was injured Nov. 3 at Toronto. Jarry is 5-2-0 with a 2.60 goals-against average and .911 save percentage in seven games this season. … Ville Koivunen (lower body) is week to week and was placed on injured reserve. The forward played 13:46 in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Nashville Predators on Friday in the opening game of the 2025 NHL Global Series Sweden presented by Fastenal in Stockholm. He has two assists in 11 games this season. Pittsburgh recalled forward Sam Poulin from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the AHL.
