DeAngelo was absent from practice on Tuesday due to an illness and his status against the Tampa Bay Lightning was up in the air. The 30-year-old DeAngelo was expected to quarterback the Islanders' top powerplay unit, but was quickly demoted due to the immediate impact of rookie Matthew Schaefer. DeAngelo has nine points (1G / 8A) in 26 games this season.
DeAngelo was absent from practice on Tuesday due to an illness and his status against the Tampa Bay Lightning is unclear. The 30-year-old DeAngelo was expected to quarterback the Islanders' top powerplay unit, but was quickly demoted due to the immediate impact of rookie Matthew Schaefer. DeAngelo has nine points (1G / 8A) in 26 games this season.
After a successful return from the KHL mid-season in 2024-25, Tony DeAngelo has earned himself a one-year, $1.75 million contract with the Islanders ahead of the 2025-26 season. The 29-year-old will likely take on a bigger role this season after Noah Dobson was moved out of town last week and is expected to occupy the top powerplay in his absence. Across 35 games in 2024-25, he had four goals, 19 points and a -11 plus/minus.
DeAngelo started the 2024-25 season with St. Petersburgh SKA (KHL), scoring 32 points (6G / 26A) in 34 games before being released from his contract. The 29-year-old has 210 points (48G / 162A) in 371 career NHL games. His contract is worth a league-minimum, one-year, $775,000. With Noah Dobson (lower body) out week-to-week, DeAngelo could potentially find himself on New York's top powerplay unit.
DeAngelo suffered a wrist injury in Game 5 vs. the Islanders, but X-rays came back negative, and he's expected to play in Game 1. DeAngelo will likely remain in the lineup until Brett Pesce returns from his lower-body injury, which could happen at some point in Round 2.
DeAngelo left Game 5 in the third period after just 14:51 TOI due to an undisclosed injury but is fine and will be good to go if needed for Round 2. The 28-year-old defenseman appeared in three games after replacing the injured Brett Pesce earlier in the round, but failed to pick up a point to go along with his eight SOG and two PIMs.
With Brett Pesce (lower body) expected to miss at least a few games, Tony DeAngelo will draw into Carolina's third defensive pairing for Game 3 for New York on Thursday. The 28-year-old only appeared in 31 games this season and picked up 11 points (3G/8A), 24 PIMs, and 44 SOG.
DeAngelo was one of four surprise additions to the Hurricanes' lineup on Friday as Jordan Staal, Jalen Chatfield, Brett Pesce, and Teuvo Teravainen are all out with undisclosed injuries. Jesperi Kotkaniemi, Brendan Lemieux, and Scott Morrow will also draw into the lineup.
DeAngelo will take a seat on Friday as the Hurricanes are opting to dress just six defensemen. His absence makes way for the return of Teuvo Teravainen (upper-body).
Jesper Fast will not play on Thursday due to an upper-body injury, allowing DeAngelo to re-enter the lineup. DeAngelo has not played since February 25th, when he scored a goal in 15:46 ice time.
DeAngelo, Brendan Lemieux, and Antti Raanta were all placed on waivers by the Hurricanes on Thursday as the team appears to be clearing cap space ahead of Friday's trade deadline. In 27 games this season, DeAngelo has 10 points (3G / 7A).
DeAngelo will get a chance to feature on Monday in place of the injured Jalen Chatfield (upper-body). DeAngelo has two goals and seven assists in 23 games this season.
With Brett Pesce sidelined due to an illness, DeAngelo will get his first opportunity to play since January 5th. DeAngelo has two goals and seven assists in 21 games this season.
With Martin Necas (upper-body) and Stefan Noesen (illness) both unavailable on Friday, DeAngelo will get the opportunity to play for the first time since December 17th as the Hurricanes are forced into dressing seven defensemen against the Capitals. DeAngelo has two goals and seven assists in 20 games this season.
With the return of Andrei Svechnikov, Carolina will return to a standard 12/6 lineup and Tony DeAngelo will be the odd man out and a healthy scratch Tuesday vs. Vegas. The 28-year-old has enjoyed a solid return to Carolina after signing a one-year contract in the offseason, with two goals, nine points, 33 SOG, 14 PIMs and a -10 plus/minus in 20 games played this season.
DeAngelo will return to the lineup for the first time since November 18th as the Hurricanes opt to dress seven defensemen on Tuesday. DeAngelo has one goal and six assists in 16 games with the Hurricanes this season.
DeAngelo has played all 13 games for the Hurricanes this season, including playing 15:17 and scoring his first goal in his most recent outing, but will be a healthy scratch on Friday against the Florida Panthers. DeAngelo's scratch likely indicates that Brett Pesce (lower-body) will be returning to the Hurricanes lineup.
