Top William Carrier News

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Expected to play Monday

    Carrier (undisclosed) will return to action against Philadelphia on Monday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

    Carrier missed Saturday's 4-1 win over Utah for maintenance. He has provided seven goals, 18 points, 77 shots on net and 168 hits in 68 outings during the 2025-26 campaign.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Not playing Saturday

    Carrier (undisclosed) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Utah.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Posts hat trick of helpers

    Carrier recorded three assists in Thursday's 7-2 win over Chicago.

    Carrier had his best playmaking game of the season Thursday, as he picked up helpers on the Hurricanes' fourth, fifth and seventh goals of the night. Overall, the 31-year-old winger has 11 assists, 18 points, 77 shots on net and 168 hits across 68 games this season. After a quiet campaign offensively, he has at least one point in back-to-back games. He should continue to play middle-six minutes on the wing for the remainder of the regular season.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Ends slump with goal

    Carrier scored a goal on three shots and added four hits in Tuesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Bruins.

    Carrier ended his 25-game goal drought, and the tally was his first point since March 10 versus the Penguins. Despite the lack of offense, Carrier has remained a fixture on the Hurricanes' fourth line when healthy this season. He's at seven goals, 15 points, 77 shots on net, 167 hits and a plus-2 rating over 67 appearances.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Stuck in goal drought

    Carrier's goal drought reached 20 games in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Devils.

    Carrier has just three assists to go with 21 shots on net and 50 hits in that span. The 31-year-old still remains the Hurricanes' preferred source of fourth-line toughness even after the team acquired Nicolas Deslauriers from the Flyers at the trade deadline. Carrier has produced 14 points, 71 shots on net, 148 hits, 18 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 61 outings this season, giving him minimal fantasy upside.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Puts away goal

    Carrier scored a goal in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Senators.

    Carrier picked up his first goal in three contests since he returned from a lower-body injury that cost him four games. He has three goals over his last six outings, though Carrier's fourth-line role will keep him from being too much of a regular on offense. The winger is up to six goals, 11 points, 50 shots on net, 98 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-5 rating over 41 appearances in 2025-26. Aside from a drop in physicality, those numbers are nearly identical to his work in 43 regular-season outings last year.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Ready to return

    Carrier (lower body) is expected to play Monday versus Buffalo, per Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer.

    Carrier missed four straight games due to the injury. He has five goals, 10 points and 91 hits in 38 outings in 2025-26. Jesperi Kotkaniemi might be a healthy scratch against the Sabres due to Carrier's return.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Won't play Saturday

    Carrier (lower body) will miss Saturday's game against New Jersey, per Mike Morreale of NHL.com.

    Carrier has five goals, 10 points, 14 PIM and 91 hits in 38 outings in 2025-26. He has also missed Carolina's past three games. When Carrier is healthy, he will likely serve on the fourth line.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Ruled out for Friday's matchup

    Carrier (lower body) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Panthers, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

    Carrier was considered a game-time decision for Friday's matchup, but he'll be forced to miss a third consecutive game. The Hurricanes will face the Devils in the second half of a back-to-back set Saturday, and it's not yet clear whether Carrier will be in the mix to suit up in New Jersey. Jesperi Kotkaniemi will presumably remain in the lineup against Florida on Friday.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Game-time call for Friday

    Carrier (lower body) will be a game-time decision versus Florida on Friday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.

    Carrier has missed the last two games. Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said Thursday that he is hopeful that the winger will return to the lineup Friday. Carrier had a goal in two of his last three games before the injury, giving him five goals, 10 points and 91 hits over 38 games this season.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Unavailable Tuesday

    Carrier (lower body) won't play against St. Louis on Tuesday, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

    Carrier will miss his second straight game, and it's unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup. He has chipped in five goals, 10 points, 45 shots on net and 91 hits over 38 appearances this season. Due to Carrier's absence, Jesperi Kotkaniemi will remain in the lineup.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Won't play Monday

    Carrier will be sidelined versus the Red Wings on Monday due to a lower-body injury, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    Carrier has struggled to produce this year, generating 10 points in 38 games, but he could be headed for another stint on the shelf due to this latest injury. With the veteran winger unavailable, Jesperi Kotkaniemi looks set to come into the lineup, though the Hurricanes could decide to utilize Mike Reilly as a seventh defenseman instead. With a back-to-back, Carrier seems unlikely to play versus the Blues on Tuesday.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Nets game-winning goal

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

    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. Carrier's recent production offensively has complemented his consistent production in hits, as he averages just shy of 2.5 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.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: 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.

    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.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Plucks apple in return

    Carrier logged an assist and five hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.

    Carrier missed one game due to an illness prior to the holiday break. The 31-year-old was back in his usual bottom-six role Saturday and should continue to play regularly in that spot. He has contributed eight points, 31 shots on net, 63 hits and a plus-2 rating over 30 appearances this season.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Good to return Saturday

    Carrier (illness) is set to play against Detroit on Saturday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

    Following a one-game absence, Carrier will serve on the third line alongside Jordan Staal and Jordan Martinook (lower body), who will return after missing the last three contests. The 31-year-old Carrier has three goals, seven points, 30 shots on net and 58 hits in 29 appearances this season.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Unavailable Tuesday

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

    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.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Game-time decision

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

    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.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Ruled out Tuesday

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

    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.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Misses practice Monday

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

    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.
