Ducks get Silfverberg, Noesen, pick for Ryan

The Anaheim Ducks have acquired Jakob Silfverberg, Stefan Noesen, and a first round pick from the Ottawa Senators in exchange for Bobby Ryan.

Silfverberg had 10 goals and 19 points in 48 games as a rookie in 2013. He's not going to step in and immediately replace Bobby Ryan's offensive abilities, but he's got plenty of upside and should play in a top-six role with the Ducks next season.

Pens place Brooks Orpik on injured reserve

The Pittsburgh Penguins have placed Brooks Orpik on injured reserve with a concussion.

Corey Crawford's LBI may not be 'too serious'

Chicago bench boss Joel Quenneville doesn't think Corey Crawford's lower-body injury is serious.

"I don't think it's too serious. But when it's a goalie it's a little more serious than other players because of how important he is to our team," said Quenneville. "We'll have a better assessment (Monday) but I think we're along those lines." With Crawford potentially sidelined, the Blackhawks will be forced to turn rookie Antti Raanta and whoever comes up from the minors as their goaltenders. He suffered what appeared to be a groin injury in the first period of Sunday's win over Florida and had to leave the game.

Dougie Hamilton heads back home due to LBI

Dougie Hamilton had to exit Sunday's game against Toronto early in the first period because of a lower-body injury.

He saw just eight shifts which amounted to 5:58 of ice time. Hamilton is heading back to Boston for evaluation and it's believed that he won't be available this week. "We'll see what the outcome is there, but it doesn't look like he'll be playing with us for this coming week," coach Claude Julien said. "Based on the original diagnosis is that he's probably done for at least a week." Hamilton has seven points and a plus-9 rating in 28 games this season. Consider him day-to-day for now.

Islanders may be calling up Ryan Strome

The struggling New York Islanders may recall center Ryan Strome from the minors.

Strome has been white-hot of late with 17 points in his last eight games as he leads the AHL in scoring with 33 points including nine goals. If the former fifth overall selection in the 2011 Draft is recalled, the Islanders, who are 2-12-2 in their last 16 games, will have to make another move as they have their full complement of 23 players on the current roster. Grab him if you can as he has a bright future in the NHL.

Ilya Bryzgalov takes shots on goal Sunday

Ilya Bryzgalov (head) took some shots on goal Sunday.

Bryzgalov was injured eight days ago and suffered a concussion/whiplash injury so the fact he already was facing some shots before practice is a good sign. There is no definite date for his return but another 10-14 days seems realistic if there are no setbacks. "When it's your head or neck, you don't want to fool with it. When it's your leg, you can say a guy will be back in four days but anything above the shoulder, that's open-ended (return-date)," said Oilers' coach Dallas Eakins. Stay tuned as Bryzgalov has stopped 92 of 98 shots in his three NHL games this season.

Mike Santorelli grabs three points in 3-1 win

Forward Mike Santorelli had points in all three Vancouver goals Sunday night to lead the Canucks to a 3-1 triumph over the visiting Colorado Avalanche.

Santorelli scored his eighth and ninth goals of the season and contributed his 13th assist of the season on Ryan Kesler's goal. It was Kesler's 15th goal of the season.

Corey Crawford leaves game early with injury

Starting goalie Corey Crawford left in the first period of Chicago's 6-2 win over Florida Sunday night because of a lower-body injury.

Rookie Antti Raanta, recalled after veteran backup Nikolai Khabublin was injured on Nov. 16, stopped 29 of 31 shots for the win in relief of Crawford, who made four saves. Crawford was forced out with 6:15 left in the first, and the Blackhawks ahead 2-0, moments after he went down to make a right pad save on Marcel Goc. He was unable to get back up on his skates, and had to be helped from the ice by teammates and a trainer. Raanta was able to finish the game despite being elbowed in the head by Florida's Jimmy Hayes in a collision midway through the third period.

Josh Harding records solid effort in Wild win

Goaltender Josh Harding made 37 saves in a strong home outing Sunday to help the Minnesota Wild beat the San Jose Sharks 3-1.

Harding, who improved to 13-1 at home, is 16-4-3 overall. He has an NHL-best 1.50 goals-against average and a .938 save percentage, which ties him for second in the league. He also moved into a second-place tie with San Jose goalie Antti Niemi and Pittsburgh's Marc-Andre Fleury for most wins. It was the second straight game Minnesota allowed a high number of shots. The team was outshot 41-20 in a 4-0 loss at Columbus on Friday. Harding didn't play in that game, and he was more than up to the task against the Sharks. He was at his best in the second period, stopping 21 shots, including quickly getting his glove up to rob Joe Pavelski on a slap shot from the left circle. The Sharks had just six shots in the third period.

Vincent Lecavalier (back) out 3-4 weeks

Philadelphia Flyers center Vincent Lecavalier is out three-to-four weeks with a non-displaced fracture in his back.

He's already been sidelined for three games with the issue. It's been an injury-ravaged season for Lecavalier, who sat out some contests with a lower-body issue and also suffered facial injuries from a fight. He has nine goals and 14 points in the 22 games he's played.
