INJURIES

Stuck in press box Reilly was scratched for the ninth time in 11 games in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Predators.
Impact This likely would have been the reality from the get-go for Reilly had the Hurricanes enjoyed better health on the blue line earlier in the year. Now that everyone aside from Charles-Alexis Legault (hand) is healthy, Reilly is stuck in the press box most of the time as a seventh defenseman. The Hurricanes regularly have five veterans on defense, along with prized rookie Alexander Nikishin, so Reilly may be spending a lot of time waiting for his next opportunity if everyone stays healthy. Reilly has five points, 23 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 21 appearances this season.
3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Tucks in shorthanded goal Reilly scored a shorthanded goal on two shots and went plus-3 in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Islanders.
Impact Reilly got a rebound attempt and tucked it home for the Hurricanes' second goal at 5:21 of the first period. The defenseman continues to play a larger role than initially expected as the Hurricanes deal with a number of injuries on the blue line. He's up to four points, 15 shots on net, nine blocked shots, three hits and a plus-8 rating through seven appearances. There may not be room for Reilly in the lineup when Carolina is fully healthy, but it could be a while before that happens.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Draws helper in team debut Reilly notched an assist and five shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Reilly drew into the lineup for Jaccob Slavin (lower body), who did not travel with the Hurricanes to begin their six-game road trip. The 32-year-old Reilly was scratched for the first two contests of 2025-26 and may only fill a part-time role this season. He put up 24 points in 59 appearances in 2023-24 but was limited to two assists in 18 outings in 2024-25 after missing a large portion of the season while recovering from a heart procedure.
OCTOBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Signs one-year contract Reilly agreed to a one-year, $1.1 million contract with Carolina on Tuesday.
Impact Reilly collected two assists, 31 shots on goal and 14 blocked shots in 18 regular-season appearances with the Islanders in 2024-25. The 31-year-old defender may not be a regular in the lineup for the Hurricanes in 2025-26, but he will provide the team with some additional depth.
JULY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Spending time in press box Reilly was scratched for a 10th straight game in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Capitals.
Impact Reilly had two assists over six contests after he returned from a long-term absence due to a heart condition. He didn't stick on the third pairing, and it's unclear if he'll play in the regular-season finale versus the Blue Jackets on Thursday. If not, Reilly will conclude the season with two helpers, 28 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 17 appearances. He's set to be an unrestricted free agent this summer.
APRIL 16 • ROTOWIRE
Point in first game back from LTIR Reilly notched an assist and two blocked shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Panthers.
Impact Reilly was activated from long-term injured reserve March 8, but he had to wait his turn to get back into the lineup. An opportunity arose Sunday when Adam Pelech (lower body) joined Adam Boqvist (upper body) on the injury report, allowing Reilly to return after sitting out 54 games due to a concussion and then a heart condition. The 31-year-old defenseman will be in contention for third-pairing minutes for the rest of the season, so he's not likely to make a large impact in fantasy. Given the ordeal he's been through with his health, getting back on the ice is a big accomplishment.
MARCH 17 • ROTOWIRE
Removed from LTIR Reilly (chest) was activated off long-term injured reserve, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports Saturday.
Impact While Reilly is no longer on the shelf, he is not expected to play on the Islanders' three-game road trip, which concludes Tuesday in Los Angeles. Once he's ready to suit up, New York will probably have some decisions to make on the back end -- the club currently has nine blueliners on the roster. Reilly did not record a point while averaging 15:45 of ice time across 11 games before getting injured.
MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE
Islanders' Mike Reilly now cleared for contact after heart surgery Mike Reilly’s recovery from heart surgery has taken the next step forward.
MARCH 1 • NYPOST.COM
Cleared for contact The Islanders announced Friday that Reilly (chest) has been cleared for contact, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Impact Reilly has been sidelined since mid-November due to a heart condition, but he's been optimistic that he'll be able to return before the end of the 2024-25 season. It's not yet clear when the 31-year-old will be able to return to game action, but he seems to be trending in the right direction.
FEBRUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE
Still planning to return in 2024-25 Reilly (chest) has been skating and working out and intends to return by the end of the season.
Impact Reilly doesn't have a firm timeline to return, but that's not a surprise given the nature of his absence, which is due to a heart condition. The defenseman will likely need to ramp up carefully over a long period of time and probably won't be back before late February at the earliest.
JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE
Shifted to long-term IR Reilly (chest) was moved to long-term injured reserve Tuesday, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.
Impact Considering Reilly is out indefinitely due to a heart condition, the move shouldn't come as a surprise. The Isles will get some relief from the veteran blueliner's $1.25 million cap hit, though he is still expected to return at some point this season. Through 11 games this year, the Chicago native failed to register a point while recording 15 shots, four blocks and three hits.
JANUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE
Set to undergo heart procedure Reilly will undergo a procedure on his heart Tuesday and will be sidelined indefinitely.
Impact Reilly had been dealing with a concussion recently, and even though he's been cleared from that issue, he'll miss time due to his heart condition. The condition was discovered when he underwent routine testing as part of his concussion recovery. General manager Lou Lamoriello said Monday that Reilly's recovery process from his procedure could take several months, but the defenseman is expected to be able to play again at some point.
NOVEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Shifts to IR Reilly (upper body) was designated for injured reserve Wednesday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Impact The news shouldn't come as a surprise after Reilly was ruled out indefinitely Saturday due to his upper-body injury. Despite averaging 1:59 of ice time with the man advantage this season, the 31-year-old blueliner has yet to register a point this season in 11 appearances. At this point, Reilly's offensive upside doesn't warrant stashing him in season-long formats even if you have an available IR spot.
NOVEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Out indefinitely The Islanders announced Saturday that Reilly (upper body) is out indefinitely.
Impact The Islanders are still calling it an upper-body injury, though it appears to be a concussion. Reilly has missed the last three games and was without a point in 11 games before the injury. Grant Hutton has taken his spot on the blue line.
NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't face Sens Reilly (concussion) will be unavailable against Ottawa on Thursday after missing the game-day skate, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Impact Considering Reilly had yet to register a point in 11 games this season, few fantasy players are likely going to be impacted by his continued absence. Still, the 31-year-old blueliner was a 20-plus point producer last year while dishing out 47 hits and 57 blocks in 59 regular-season contests. Without Reilly in the lineup, Dennis Cholowski and Grant Hutton will make up the third pairing.
NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Unavailable Tuesday Reilly (upper body) won't be in the lineup Tuesday against Pittsburgh, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.
Impact Reilly is still day-to-day and will miss his second straight game. He hasn't earned a point in 11 games this campaign but has provided 15 shots on goal, four blocked shots and three hits. With Reilly, Alexander Romanov (upper body) and Adam Pelech (jaw) unavailable to play against the Penguins, the Islanders' defense corp will feature Dennis Cholowski, Grant Hutton and Isaiah George, who makes his NHL debut following his recall from AHL Bridgeport on Tuesday.
NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Still deemed day-to-day Reilly (upper body) remains day-to-day ahead of Tuesday's game against the Penguins, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Impact Reilly continues to deal with an upper-body injury that forced him to miss Sunday's game against the Rangers, and it's unclear whether he'll be available Tuesday. If he's forced to sit out again, Grant Hutton and Samuel Bolduc are candidates to see playing time for the Islanders.
NOVEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Out vs. Rangers Reilly (upper body) won't play Saturday against the Rangers, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Impact Reilly was deemed day-to-day after suffering an injury in Friday's win over Buffalo, though he'll now miss at least one game. With Reilly out, either Grant Hutton or Samuel Bolduc figure to fill in on a depleted Islanders' blueline.
NOVEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Deemed day-to-day Reilly (upper body) is day-to-day after being injured in Friday's 4-3 win over Buffalo, the team announced Saturday.
Impact Reilly hasn't earned a point in 11 outings while contributing 15 shots goal, four blocked shots and three hits this season. He didn't participate in Saturday's practice, per Andrew Gross of Newsday, which doesn't bode well for his availability for Sunday's matchup versus the Rangers. Due to injuries to Reilly, Alexander Romanov (upper body) and Adam Pelech (face), the Islanders could insert Samuel Bolduc and Grant Hutton into the lineup for Sunday's game.
NOVEMBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers injury Friday Reilly sustained an upper-body injury when he hit his head following a hit in Friday's game versus the Sabres, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Impact Reilly will obviously be checked for a concussion. He needed assistance to get off the ice but was available to avoid being stretchered off. In the likely event Reilly misses time, Dennis Cholowski would enter the lineup and Ryan Pulock could see more power-play time.
NOVEMBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
No-show on scoresheet Reilly has not recorded a point through 10 games this season.
Impact Reilly has filled in as a top-four option since Alexander Romanov (upper body) exited the lineup, but it hasn't helped him offense. The 31-year-old Reilly has 15 shots on net, three hits, four blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-1 rating this season. He's averaged 16:35 of ice time per game, including 2:06 on the power play, so he should continue to get looks after racking up 24 points in 61 regular-season outings between the Islanders and Panthers in 2023-24.
OCTOBER 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Completes one-year deal Reilly inked a one-year, $1.25 million contract with the Islanders on Monday, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.
Impact Reilly was picked up off waivers by the Isles back in late November and went on to play in 59 regular-season contests for the club. Along the way, the veteran blueliner notched six goals and 18 assists, crossing the 20-point threshold for just the second time in his career.
JULY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Records helper Reilly recorded an assist in Monday's 5-3 loss to Carolina.
Impact Reilly's assist came late into the first period centering a pass to Kyle Palmieri in the slot to put the Islanders up 1-0. The 30-year-old recorded 16:50 of ice time to go along with two blocked shots. He will likely be on the third defensive pairing with Robert Bortuzzo heading into game three.
APRIL 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Pockets helper Reilly logged an assist in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Predators.
Impact Reilly has two helpers over his last five contests. The 30-year-old continues to see steady bottom-four usage, and he's provided decent offense in that role for the Islanders. He's at 20 points, 118 shots on net, 55 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating through 56 appearances this season between the Islanders and the Panthers.
APRIL 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Registers assist in win Reilly notched an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Ducks.
Impact The helper was Reilly's third over the last six games. He continues to provide solid depth offense from a third-pairing role. The defenseman is up to 16 points over 40 contests with the Islanders after opening the year scoreless in two outings for the Panthers. Reilly also has 39 hits, 41 blocked shots, 88 shots on net and a minus-2 rating.
