Top Emil Heineman News

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Returning against Canes

    Heineman (upper body) will be back in the lineup versus Carolina on Wednesday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.

    Heineman will return from a five-game stint on the sidelines due to his upper-body issue. Prior to his absence, the 23-year-old Swede was mired in a nine-game pointless streak during which he registered seven goals, 34 hits and four blocks while averaging 10:55 of ice time. Oliver Kapanen seems like the most likely candidate to get dropped from the lineup with Heineman back.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Unavailable versus Hawks

    Heineman (upper body) remains day-to-day and won't face the Blackhawks on Monday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.

    Heineman will miss his fifth straight game due to his upper-body issue. Considering the Swedish winger has managed just one point in his last 20 appearances, his continued absence is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy managers. The addition of Ivan Demidov could make it difficult for Heineman to get back into the lineup even once given the all-clear.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Still out Saturday

    Heineman (undisclosed) is not on the ice for warmups, indicating he won't play Saturday versus the Maple Leafs, Patrick Friolet of RDS reports.

    Heineman will miss his fourth straight contest. It's unclear if he'll be able to return before the end of the regular season. The Canadiens play Monday versus the Blackhawks and Wednesday versus the Hurricanes, and Montreal remains in the driver's seat for the second wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. That should give Heineman a chance to play down the home stretch or possibly in the postseason.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Unavailable Friday

    Heineman (undisclosed) has been ruled out of Friday's tilt in Ottawa, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.

    Heineman will miss his third straight game. The 23-year-old has 10 goals, eight assists and 171 hits across 61 games with Montreal this season. He has slumped of late with only one assist in 24 games since Jan. 4.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Not available Tuesday

    Heineman (undisclosed) will not be an option for Tuesday's divisional meeting with Detroit, per Eric Engels of Sportsnet.

    Fantasy managers are unlikely to be affected by Heineman's absence, as he logged just one helper over 20 outings prior to getting hurt. The 23-year-old's next chance to return to the lineup will be in the first half of a back-to-back Friday in Ottawa.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Won't play Sunday

    Heineman has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Predators due to an undisclosed injury.

    While the nature of Heineman's ailment isn't yet clear, he's considered day-to-day and will be unavailable for the first time since the 4 Nations Face-Off. It seems likely that Joshua Roy will enter the lineup against the Predators, especially if Josh Anderson (personal) remains sidelined.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Ends slump with helper

    Heineman logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal and three hits in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Senators.

    This was Heineman's first point since Jan. 3 versus the Blackhawks. He went 14 games without a point and also missed 14 contests due to an upper-body injury in that stretch, and he's been limited to fourth-line duties when in the lineup. The 23-year-old has been effective in that role with 10 goals, eight assists, 57 shots on net, 137 hits and a minus-2 rating across 52 appearances this season, but he'll need to be steadier on offense to draw fantasy interest.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Returns to action Saturday

    Heineman (upper body) will be activated off injured reserve and return to the lineup versus Ottawa on Saturday.

    Heineman missed 14 games after he was hit by a car while walking. The 23-year-old has 10 goals and seven assists over 41 contests this season.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Back at practice Friday

    Heineman (upper body) returned to practice Friday, Stu Cowan of The Montreal Gazette reports.

    Heineman suffered his injury Jan. 13 when he was involved in a traffic accident as a pedestrian, and the 23-year-old missed the last 14 games. Heineman has 10 goals and 17 points over 41 outings this season.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Not traveling to California

    Heineman (upper body) will not travel to California with the Canadiens for their upcoming three-game road trip that begins in Anaheim on Sunday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

    Heineman was injured in a traffic accident in mid-January. He was expected to miss 3-4 weeks and if that timeline is correct, he could return to the lineup as early as Feb. 8 when the Canadiens return home to face New Jersey. The 23-year-old has 10 goals, seven assists and 101 hits across 41 appearances this season.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Placed on injured reserve

    Heineman was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, per the NHL media site.

    Heineman was involved in a traffic accident in mid-January in which he sustained an upper-body injury that was expected to sideline him for 3-4 weeks. It's unclear whether he'll be able to return before the 4 Nations Face-Off, but his placement on injured reserve won't impact his return timetable, as he's already missed the last eight games.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Sustains injury in traffic accident

    Heineman suffered an upper-body injury in a traffic accident as a pedestrian Monday and will be sidelined for 3-4 weeks, the team announced Tuesday.

    Heineman hadn't registered a point in his last four outings, but he's been productive this season in a depth role with 10 goals and 17 points through 41 appearances. If Alex Newhook (illness) isn't ready to go Tuesday versus Utah, Montreal may be forced to roll with 11 forwards and seven defensemen. Michael Pezzetta figures to see consistent playing time while Heineman is on the shelf.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Extends productive run

    Heineman scored a power-play goal in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Blackhawks.

    Heineman has cracked the scoresheet in seven of his last eight outings, including three straight games. The 23-year-old forward has tallied 10 points (five goals, five helpers) of his 17 points this season across his past 15 contests.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Scores in win

    Heineman scored a goal on one shot and had five hits in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights.

    Heineman scored the game-tying goal early in the third period, continuing the fourth line's resurgence during Montreal's 6-1-0 stretch. The tally was his ninth of the season and gave him eight points over the last nine outings. In addition to the traditional duties of a fourth liner -- Heineman is second on the team with 87 hits -- he's been an offensive force, scoring on 23.7 percent of his shots.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Slides assist in loss

    Heineman had an assist, one shot on net and two hits in Monday's 5-4 loss to Columbus.

    Heineman is part of resurgent fourth line that contributed six goals in the last four games. He hit Jake Evans in stride to set up the tally that tied the game at 3-3 in the second period. Heineman has points (two goals, three assists) in four straight games.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Strikes in win

    Heineman had a goal, one shot on net, three hits and two PIM in Saturday's 5-1 win over Detroit.

    Heineman potted his eighth goal of the season early in the second period. It was the second straight game with a goal and third consecutive with at least a point for Heineman, who has five points over his last five outings.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: One of each in win

    Heineman scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist and went plus-2 in Friday's 4-3 win over the Red Wings.

    Heineman has four points over his last four games. He scored the opening goal at 7:09 of the first period, his first tally since Dec. 1. The 23-year-old has seven goals, 12 points, 33 shots on net, 72 hits and a minus-3 rating over 31 contests. Heineman's recent success may make him of interest to fantasy managers in deep formats, but he doesn't have enough of a track record or a large enough role for widespread appeal.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Records assist Tuesday

    Heineman notched an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Sabres.

    Heineman has a helper in two of the last three contests. The 23-year-old also saw a season-high 14:28 of ice time Tuesday, though that was likely a product of the game being a blowout win. Heineman is up to 10 points, 31 shots on net, 71 hits and a minus-5 rating over 30 appearances, primarily in a fourth-line role.

  • Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Offers helper in blowout loss

    Heineman logged an assist in Thursday's 9-2 loss to the Penguins.

    Heineman ended a four-game slump with the helper on a Joel Armia tally in the second period. Prior to that dry spell, Heineman had scored three times over five contests. The 23-year-old winger is finding his way in a fourth-line role, adding a little depth scoring and plenty of physical play. He's at nine points, 30 shots on net, 67 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 28 appearances.
