Kraken's Mitchell Stephens: Nabs helper in win
Stephens produced an assist in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Rangers.
This was Stephens' first point in five games at the NHL level. He's been effective for the Kraken, adding six shots on net, two hits and an even plus-minus rating while centering the fourth line since his call-up. Stephens has never earned more than six points or played in more than 38 games in an NHL campaign, but with Jordan Eberle (pelvis) out on a long-term basis, Stephens could stick around a while while holding a spot in the lineup over Daniel Sprong.

Kraken's Mitchell Stephens: Summoned from AHL
Stephens was recalled from AHL Coachella Valley on Saturday.
Stephens has three goals and one assist in 11 minor-league outings this season. The 27-year-old forward will be an option for Saturday's game against San Jose, though he could be a healthy scratch.

Kraken's Mitchell Stephens: On waiver wire
Stephens was placed on waivers by the Kraken on Tuesday.
Stephens signed a two-year deal with Seattle this offseason in the hope of making the 23-man roster for Opening Night, but that was not to be. The 27-year-old center did play in 23 games for the Habs last year, so it's possible his former club would consider claiming the Ontario native instead of letting him pass through to AHL Coachella Valley.

Kraken's Mitchell Stephens: Inks two-year deal
Stephens signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Kraken on Monday.
Stephens had two goals and three points in 23 contests with Montreal in 2023-24. He also recorded 13 goals and 35 points in 49 regular-season outings with AHL Laval. The 27-year-old will likely start 2024-25 in the minors.

Canadiens' Mitchell Stephens: Hits waivers
Stephens was placed on waivers Monday.
Stephens has chipped in two goals, one assist and 16 shots on net in 23 NHL outings this season. If he clears, Stephens will probably be sent down to the minors. That could pave the way for Tanner Pearson's return to the lineup from an upper-body injury.

Canadiens' Mitchell Stephens: Helps in win
Stephens had an assist and one block over 10:15 of ice time in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Rangers.
Stephens and Michael Pezzetta combined to set up Joel Armia's strike that beat Jonathan Quick five-hole for Montreal's third goal. Stephens has been a staple on the fourth line since being called up in early December. The Canadiens have sustained injuries to three centers -- Kirby Dach (knee), Christian Dvorak (pectoral) and Alex Newhook (ankle) -- so Stephens should continue to be a regular going forward. Two of those three injured centers are done for the season.

Canadiens' Mitchell Stephens: Starts comeback
Stephens scored a goal on one shot and had a block over 9:08 of ice time in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Carolina.
A Jayden Struble shot from the point deflected off Michael Pezzetta onto the stick of Stephens, whose backhander eluded Antti Raanta. The Hurricanes had jumped to a 2-0 lead early before Stephens initiated Montreal's comeback. It was the second goal of the season for Stephens and his second in as many games. He's played 11 games in a fourth-line role since being called up to replace Alex Newhook (ankle).

Canadiens' Mitchell Stephens: Nets first goal of 2023-24
Stephens found the back of the net in a 5-2 win over Chicago on Friday.
Stephens' marker came early in the second period to narrow the Blackhawks' lead to 2-1 and begin Montreal's comeback effort. It was the 26-year-old's first goal and point in 10 contests with the Canadiens this season. Although Stephens has stuck with Montreal since being summoned from AHL Laval on Dec. 1, he's playing in a fourth-line capacity and consequently is unlikely to contribute much offensively.

Canadiens' Mitchell Stephens: Up from AHL
Stephens was called up from AHL Laval on Friday.
Alex Newhook suffered a lower-body injury during Thursday's 5-1 loss to Florida, so Stephens' promotion is likely a reaction to that. If Newhook can't play Saturday versus Detroit, then Stephens might make his NHL season debut. The 26-year-old has three goals and 12 points in 16 outings with Laval in 2023-24.

Canadiens' Mitchell Stephens: Placed on waivers
Stephens was put on waivers by the Canadiens on Saturday.

Canadiens' Mitchell Stephens: Re-ups with Habs
Stephens signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Canadiens on Tuesday, per CapFriendly.
It's not a great sign that Stephens didn't play in an NHL game in 2022-23 despite the Canadiens' numerous injury problems. He was fairly solid with AHL Laval, posting 20 goals and 41 points over 68 contests. He's a veteran of 72 NHL games, but it's likely the 26-year-old opens 2023-24 in the minors.

Stephens was placed on waivers by Montreal on Tuesday.

Canadiens' Mitchell Stephens: Signs two-way deal
Stephens signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Canadiens on Wednesday.
Stephens spent the entirety of the 2021-22 campaign with the Red Wings, picking up six helpers through 27 appearances. The 25-year-old forward will likely split the 2022-23 season between the minors and the big club.

Mitchell Stephens: Free agency bound
Stephens was not given a qualifying offer by the Red Wings and will become an unrestricted free agent Wednesday, MLive.com reports.
Stephens hasn't scored a goal at the NHL level in two seasons, though he did manage six helpers in 27 games last year. Given his limited offensive upside, the Ontario native figures to continue splitting his time between the NHL and AHL this upcoming campaign and shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value.

Red Wings' Mitchell Stephens: Slides helper in win
Stephens contributed an assist in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Hurricanes.
Stephens is performing well following a 55-game injury layoff, as he's registered two assists in three games since returning. However, between his fourth-line role and lack of NHL experience, fantasy managers are going to look elsewhere for help at the center position down the stretch.

Stephens (lower body) was placed on IR on Monday.

Red Wings' Mitchell Stephens: Expected to miss time
Stephens (lower body) "will miss some time" after leaving Saturday's game against Montreal.
A better look at his timeline could be available in the coming days but this should rule him out for Monday's game against Columbus and Tuesday's tilt with the Stars. The 24-year-old Stephens has four assists through 16 games this season.
