JACCOB SLAVIN NEWS

Practices in non-contact jersey Slavin (lower body) participated in Tuesday's practice in a non-contact jersey, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.

Impact This was Slavin's first time back on the ice since he suffered an injury Oct. 11. The 31-year-old status wasn't updated by the team, but this attendance at practice suggests he is starting to ramp up. Considering the length of his absence, he will likely need a handful of practices before being ready to play again, so his return is not yet imminent.

Placed on injured reserve Slavin (lower body) was placed on injured reserve by the Hurricanes on Thursday, per the NHL media site.

Impact Slavin sustained a lower-body injury during Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Flyers, and head coach Rod Brind'Amour said that the defenseman would be "out for a while." As a result, it isn't particularly surprising to see Slavin land on injured reserve, officially sidelining him for multiple games. Mike Reilly will likely continue to see playing time in Slavin's absence.

Impact Head coach Rod Brind'Amour told Ruff on Tuesday that Slavin will be kept "out for a while." If the 31-year-old blueliner misses the entirety of the road trip, his next opportunity to play will come against Vegas on Oct. 28. Slavin will be replaced in Tuesday's lineup by Mike Reilly.

Impact Slavin is still undergoing evaluations after suffering an injury in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over Philadelphia. He hasn't earned a point in two appearances this season while posting two shots on goal and three blocked shots. If Slavin is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup against San Jose, Mike Reilly will probably make his season debut.

Sustains injury Saturday Slavin is being evaluated for an undisclosed injury sustained in Saturday's game versus the Flyers, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Slavin came out of the game during the third period. The injury leaves him day-to-day ahead of Tuesday's contest in San Jose, which is the start of a six-game road trip out west for the Hurricanes. If Slavin misses time, Mike Reilly will enter the lineup.

Available for Thursday Slavin (undisclosed) is good to play in Carolina's season opener against New Jersey on Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports Wednesday.

Impact Slavin recorded six goals, 27 points and 136 blocks in 80 regular-season appearances with Carolina in 2024-25. The 31-year-old is likely to play on the first pairing, but he probably won't see time with the man advantage versus the Devils.

Skating in non-contact jersey Slavin (undisclosed) was on the ice in a non-contact sweater Tuesday, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

Impact Slavin isn't expected to participate in any preseason games as he works his way back from injury, but the fact that he was on the ice is a step in the right direction. The veteran blueliner still has some time to get to 100 percent prior to Opening Night against the Devils on Oct. 9. While Slavin is unlikely to offer any power-play production -- he hasn't registered a point with the man advantage since 2021-22 -- he should still be capable of challenging for the 30-point threshold.

Likely held out of preseason action Slavin (undisclosed) is unlikely to play in any preseason games, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports Sunday.

Impact Slavin didn't participate in a team practice earlier this week with soreness, and now the team likely will hold him out of the entire preseason as a precaution. However, it seems that his readiness for opening night shouldn't be a cause for concern yet. The 31-year-old plays a key shutdown role with the team and had 21 points in 80 regular-season games last year.

SEPTEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't skate Thursday Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said that Slavin didn't skate Thursday since he was "a little sore," Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact Slavin has appeared in at least 80 regular-season games in each of the last two seasons, most recently logging six goals, 21 assists, 136 blocked shots and 21 hits while averaging 21:34 of ice time over 80 regular-season outings last year. Brind'Amour said Thursday that Slavin won't go until he's 100 percent healthy, but it seems unlikely that his soreness will limit his regular-season availability.
