Promoted from minors Stillman was recalled from AHL Bakersfield on Friday.

Impact Stillman has yet to get into an NHL game this year, but could be pressed into service against the Maple Leafs on Saturday if the recently acquired Spencer Stastney can't get there in time. In his 163 NHL games, the 27-year-old Stillman has generated four goals and 22 assists, so fantasy managers probably shouldn't be expecting him to produce offensively.

Placed on waivers by Edmonton Stillman was placed on waivers by the Oilers on Thursday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Impact Stillman joined the Oilers on a two-year, two-way contract during the offseason, but he'll be left off the team's Opening Night roster for the 2025-26 campaign. He'll presumably head to AHL Bakersfield if he clears waivers. Over 35 regular-season appearances with AHL Chicago last year, he logged three goals, six assists and 58 PIM.

Depth signing for Edmonton Stillman signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Oilers on Tuesday, per PuckPedia.

Impact Stillman made five appearances in 2024-25 with the Hurricanes, but he failed to record a point while averaging a mere 7:11 of ice time. The Oilers have far less defensive depth than his old team, but Stillman will likely spend a majority of 2025-26 with AHL Bakersfield. He has limited scoring upside after producing just nine points in 35 AHL contests last year.

Joins NHL club Stillman was brought up from AHL Chicago on Tuesday.

Impact Stillman has appeared in three NHL games this season, posting one shot on goal and four hits. He has three goals and six assists in 35 AHL outings this campaign. Stillman will probably play in at least one of Carolina's final two games of the regular season because the team will rest some players before the beginning of the playoffs.

Dropped to minors Stillman was assigned to AHL Chicago on Saturday.

Impact Carolina brought up Scott Morrow from the minors in a corresponding move. Stillman hasn't earned a point in three NHL appearances this season while posting four hits.

Quickly recalled Stillman was called up from AHL Chicago on Saturday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

Impact Stillman was sent down Friday after clearing waivers. He was injured Thursday on his opening shift against the Bruins and did not return, but is well enough to play Sunday versus the Jets. Should Dmitry Orlov miss Sunday's tilt with an undisclosed injury, Stillman would reenter the lineup on the third pairing, alongside Sean Walker.

Shipped to AHL Stillman was assigned to AHL Chicago on Friday.

Impact This move indicates the facial injury Stillman suffered Thursday is not serious, and it also preserves the 26-year-old's playoff eligibility for the Wolves. If the Hurricanes want him back for defensive depth in the NHL, he could be called up again prior to Sunday's game versus the Jets after clearing waivers Friday.

Defenseman Dmitry Orlov misses game for first time with Hurricanes

Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Dmitry Orlov missed a game for the first time this season with an unexpected pregame injury

MARCH 7, 2025 • Associated Press

Leaves Thursday's game Stillman (face) won't return to Thursday's game versus the Bruins, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports.

Impact Stillman took a skate to the face on his first shift, Lavalette adds. Stillman's exit is reportedly for precautionary reasons -- he was a fill-in for Dmitry Orlov (undisclosed) in this contest, who was a late scratch just before puck drop, so it's possible the Hurricanes are just being careful with their defense in a precarious position.

Playing Thursday Stillman remains on the Hurricanes' roster for Thursday's game versus the Bruins, per the NHL media site.

Impact Stillman was waived Thursday, but he can continue to play while on waivers. The move was likely made to give the Hurricanes more roster flexibility. Stillman will be in the lineup Thursday because Dmitry Orlov (undisclosed) is dealing with a minor injury that will keep him out of action for at least one game.

On waiver wire Stillman was designated for waivers by Carolina on Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact While it could be nothing more than a technical paper transaction, the decision to waive Stillman could be an indication the Canes are looking to bolster their defensive group ahead of Friday's trade deadline. The 26-year-old blueliner has played in just two NHL games for Carolina this season in which he averaged a paltry 4:46 of ice time. Assuming he clears, Stillman should link up with AHL Chicago -- at least until the 23-man roster limit lifts.

MARCH 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Elevated to NHL roster Stillman was promoted from AHL Chicago on Tuesday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact Stillman has played in just one game for the Hurricanes this season in which he logged a meager 7:40 of ice time. Even with his elevation to the NHL roster, Stillman figures to continue serving as a depth option for Carolina and will likely keep warming a spot in the press box.
