Steve Stamkos OK after MRI, set for WHC

Steve Stamkos had an MRI on his knee Sunday, but GM Steve Yzerman said it showed "nothing of significance."

The Tampa sniper felt he hyperextended his knee slightly on a hit he put on Florida defenseman Filip Kuba late in the third period of Saturday's finale. He will fly to Sweden Tuesday to play for Canada at the world championship.

Flyers experiment with Claude Giroux at LW

Claude Giroux was serving as a left winger during Tuesday's practice.

Sean Couturier served as the center on the line while Jakub Voracek played on the right side. Giroux typically plays as a center, but training camp is the time to experiment with different roles. "We did a lot of drills where I was coming down the left side there," Giroux said. "I can see the ice pretty good from there because you have the puck on your good side. It was actually a lot of fun. It’s not like I'm against it or I’m not happy with it if it makes the team better. I know we have a lot of centermen. I’m up for the idea for sure." There are reasons why shifting Giroux to the wing could make sense for Philadelphia. It would potentially allow them to have Couturier play as a top-six forward, which might lead to getting more offense out of him. It also would make it easier to fit second overall pick Nolan Patrick into the lineup. Despite those factors though, it's too early to say if Giroux will indeed shift positions this season.

New Jersey Devils Dr. Michael Farber said that Boyle's issue is treatable. He will take oral medication to treat the CML (chronic myeloid leukemia), which was caught early, and expects to be in the opening night lineup this season. We wish him the best and hope to see him playing on Oct. 7.

Colin White will be out of action for six-to-eight weeks after he suffered a broken left wrist on Monday night.

White was hurt blocking a shot in preseason action against Toronto and he underwent surgery Tuesday morning. He is slated to skate during his recovery to maintain his conditioning. It was expected that White would be able to claim a roster spot out of training camp because of Derick Brassard's shoulder injury, but now he'll miss the start of the regular season.

Nico Hischier scores in first preseason game

Nico Hischier scored in his first career preseason game as the Devils earned a 4-1 victory over the Washington Capitals Monday night.

Hischier was taken with the first overall pick in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft. While he might not have the same kind of impact that recent top picks Connor McDavid and Auston Matthews have had, Hischier obviously still has a lot of upside. He's a great pick in keeper leagues even if we would pencil him in for 40-50 points for the 2017-18 campaign. Kyle Palmieri, Stefan Noesen, and Mirco Mueller netted the Devils' other three goals. Nathan Walker found the back of the net for Washington.
