Overview

• Winnipeg’s Dylan Samberg is expected to miss about 6–8 weeks with a broken wrist, and Connor Hellebuyck left practice “not feeling quite right,” putting his planned preseason start in doubt.
• The Jets placed Mason Shaw and Phil Di Giuseppe on waivers for assignment to the Manitoba Moose and loaned prospect Danny Zhilkin, trimming the camp roster to 42.
• Colorado reduced its roster to 40, waiving Alex Barre-Boulet, Tye Felhaber, Jason Polin and T.J. Tynan, while sending Ivan Ivan and prospect defenseman Sean Behrens to the AHL Eagles.
• Chicago assigned multiple players to Rockford and put Dominic Toninato on waivers, as Frank Nazar highlighted the weekend with a preseason hat trick.
• The Islanders iced a near–opening night lineup to sharpen execution, with Mathew Barzal centering and defense pairs largely set as Anders Lee aims to return for Thursday’s finale.
