The NHL season is in full swing, and NHL news November 30, 2025 is dominated by major injury updates and a massive offensive explosion from the Toronto Maple Leafs. As we wrap up a busy Thanksgiving weekend of hockey, the playoff picture is already beginning to take shape with standout performances and concerning injuries impacting contenders across the league.
Breaking News: Adam Fox Placed on LTIR by Rangers
The biggest story today comes out of New York, where the Rangers have placed star defenseman Adam Fox on Long-Term Injured Reserve (LTIR). Fox sustained an upper-body injury during Saturday’s loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning after a heavy collision along the boards. This is a significant blow to the Rangers’ blue line, as Fox has been pivotal this season, racking up 26 points in 27 games. With Fox out for at least 10 games and 24 days, New York will need to rely heavily on their depth defenders to weather the storm.
In other injury news, the Utah Mammoth lost leading scorer Logan Cooley to a lower-body injury in their 1-0 loss to St. Louis, while Chicago’s Teuvo Teravainen is listed as questionable for tonight’s matchup against the Ducks. On a brighter note, the Montreal Canadiens secured their defensive future, signing Mike Matheson to a 5-year, $30 million contract extension.
