William Carrier - NHL News & Rumors

Nets game-winning goal Carrier scored the game-winning goal and put two shots on net in Saturday's 3-2 win over Seattle.

Impact Carrier struck the back of the net with just over six minutes to go in regulation for Saturday's go-ahead goal. Following his winning score, the 31-year-old winger is up to five goals, 10 points, 45 shots on net and 91 hits through 38 games this season. His goal Saturday was his second over Carolina's past three games. His recent production offensively is a nice boost to his fantasy value that heavily relies upon hits, as he averages just shy of two and a half hits per game this season. The 10-year NHL veteran is 26 hits shy of 1,500 in his career, giving him a milestone to chase in the near future.

Adds goal in big win Carrier scored a goal, put three shots on net, served four PIM and had four hits in Tuesday's 6-3 win over Dallas.

Impact Carrier tallied the lone goal of the third period for Carolina in response to the Stars' tally at the start of the period. With the twine finder, he is up to four goals, nine points, 42 shots on net and 89 hits through 36 outings this season. While his blend of stats might not warrant consideration in fantasy outside of deep leagues that value banger stats, his impact on the Canes' fourth line has been solid. He is just two points shy of matching his total of 11 during his first season with the Hurricanes, giving him plenty of time down the stretch to surpass that total and push for the third 20-plus point, 100-plus hit season of his career.

Unavailable Tuesday Carrier (illness) won't suit up Tuesday versus the Panthers, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

Impact The Hurricanes will be forced to dress seven defensemen to have a full lineup Tuesday. Carrier's illness probably won't linger too long, so he should be considered day-to-day for Saturday's contest versus the Red Wings.

Game-time decision Carrier (illness) will be a game-time decision against Florida on Tuesday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact Carrier didn't participate in Monday's practice and sat out Tuesday's morning skate, but there's still a possibility that he will be ready to play in Tuesday's game. He has contributed three goals, seven points, 30 shots on net and 58 hits through 29 appearances this season. If Carrier is unavailable to play, the Hurricanes will dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen, with Joel Nystrom and Mike Reilly in the lineup.

Ruled out Tuesday Carrier (illness) will not be in action to face the Panthers on Tuesday, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

Impact With Carrier on the shelf, the Canes are expected to utilize seven defensemen in Tuesday's lineup. The 31-year-old Quebec native has struggled offensively of late, generating a lone point in his last eight outings. At this point, Carrier seems unlikely to get over the 20-point threshold, a mark he hasn't reached since 2022-23 when he was with Vegas.

Misses practice Monday Carrier didn't practice Monday due to an illness, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.

Impact It's not yet clear whether Carrier will be able to suit up for Tuesday's game against the Panthers, but even if he's sidelined, it seems unlikely that he'll miss extensive time. Over 10 appearances this month, Carrier has recorded two goals, 19 hits and three blocked shots while averaging 12:07 of ice time.
