Date News Advice
Oct. 6, 2024 Ylonen was assigned to AHL Syracuse on Sunday. - Even though it wasn't part of the announcement from the Lightning, Ylonen has to go through waivers before being sent down. He registered four goals and four assists in 59 games with Montreal during the 2023-24 regular season. None
July 1, 2024 Ylonen signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Lightning on Monday, per Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times. - Ylonen became an unrestricted free agent after Montreal decided against making him a qualifying offer. The 24-year-old had four goals, eight points, 41 hits and 32 blocked shots in 59 regular-season contests in 2023-24. Ylonen should be in the conservation for a fourth-line spot with the Lightning. None
June 27, 2024 Ylonen won't receive a qualifying offer from the Canadiens, per Arpon Basu of The Athletic on Thursday, which will make him an unrestricted free agent Monday. - Ylonen had four goals and eight points in 59 contests with Montreal in 2023-24. He's coming off a one-year, two-way agreement. Ylonen will probably end up settling for a two-way contract somewhere, but the 24-year-old should have a real shot of earning an NHL roster spot out of training camp with whatever squad he joins. None
March 29, 2024 Ylonen scored a goal on one shot in Thursday's 4-1 win over Philadelphia. - It's been a while for Ylonen, who hadn't scored since Nov. 16, a span of 43 games. He was in the right place at the right time to take advantage of a rebound. Ylonen has four goals and four assists through 54 games. None
March 14, 2024 Ylonen remains pointless in 19 straight matches, leading to him being scratched against Boston on Thursday, Arpon Basu of The Athletic reports. - Ylonen also hasn't found the back of the net since Nov. 16 when he scored twice against the Golden Knights, a stretch of 41 games without bending the twine. Without a clear path to more minutes, Ylonen figures to remain a non-factor in fantasy. None
Jan. 17, 2024 Ylonen (undisclosed) is in Wednesday's lineup against the Devils, per the NHL's media site. - Ylonen was injured Monday against Colorado but will be in his usual bottom-six role Wednesday. He has seven points in 36 games this season with just one coming in his last 10 appearances. None
Jan. 15, 2024 Ylonen (undisclosed) will not return to Monday's game against Colorado. - Ylonen logged 4:26 of ice time before leaving the contest. He's been held to just seven points through 36 contests. Montreal's next game is Wednesday against the Devils. None
Jan. 7, 2024 Ylonen recorded an assist and one shot on net over 11:36 of ice time in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Rangers. - Ylonen set up Sean Monahan as part of a give-and-go for Montreal's second goal. The 24-year-old Ylonen was recently promoted from the fourth line, which could lead to more scoring opportunities. He has just seven points over 32 games. None
Dec. 23, 2023 Ylonen had an assist and finished plus-2 over 12:30 of ice time in Friday's 5-2 win over Chicago. - Ylonen and Nick Suzuki combined to set up Juraj Slafkovsky's second-period goal which turned out to be the game-winning score. The tally happened during Ylonen's lone shift he took with the top line while Cole Caufield was temporarily in the dressing room. The assist was just his second point over the last 14 games. In normal five-on-five settings, Ylonen skates on the fourth line. None
Dec. 14, 2023 Ylonen had an assist over 7:26 of ice time in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Penguins. - Ylonen snapped a nine-game point drought, picking up the secondary assist on defenseman Jayden Struble's first-period strike. Ylonen's pass was deflected by linemate Michael Pezzetta onto Struble's stick for the finish. Ylonen, who showed off scoring ability last season with 16 points in 37 contests, remains mired on the fourth line and averages three fewer minutes of TOI than he was getting in 2022-23. The 24-year-old forward has three goals (21 shots) and two assists over 22 contests. None
Nov. 25, 2023 Ylonen had one shot on net and scored the winning tally in the shootout of Friday's 3-2 win over San Jose. - Ylonen had just 7:16 of ice time and barley played in the third period -- two shifts, 1:13 TOI -- before the fourth-line forward ended matters with a beautiful deke of Mackenzie Blackwood. With Rafael Harvey-Pinard (lower body) expected to be sidelined for up to two months, Ylonen could get a chance to revive his season, which has featured seven healthy scratches. None
Nov. 22, 2023 Ylonen logged an assist in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Ducks. - Ylonen has played in four straight games, picking up three points over that span to help his case to stay in the lineup. The 24-year-old winger set up a Kiaden Guhle tally in the first period Wednesday. Ylonen has four points 14 shots on net, 12 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 12 contests overall. None
Nov. 16, 2023 Ylonen scored twice Thursday in a 6-5 loss to Vegas. - Ylonen did a lot with 7:22 of ice time -- he wired four shots and laid one hit, and showed off his quick hands and great release on both snipes. His first was especially sharp -- he fired a wrist shot that beat Adin Hill glove side on a second-period breakaway. Ylonen is a young speedster whose ice time has dropped below 10 minutes a night after he sat in the press box early in November. He has potential, but right now, he's not getting the right ice to show off his skills. None
Oct. 12, 2023 Ylonen scored a goal on one shot and blocked a shot over 11:01 of ice time in Wednesday's 6-5 shootout loss to Toronto. - Montreal's fourth line was responsible for two of the team's five goals and showed an opportunistic flair in doing so. Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren misfired on an attempted clear, and Rafael Harvey-Pinard pounced on the loose puck. He fed Ylonen for the Canadiens' final score. Earlier in the game, fourth-line center Jake Evans took advantage of a fallen Toronto defender to score on a breakaway. Ylonen showed an offensive flair and skated on the top line at times in 2022-23. That may not repeat itself this season, but both he and Harvey-Pinard made an impression on head coach Martin St. Louis during their first significant taste of the NHL last season. None
July 31, 2023 Ylonen signed a one-year, two-way contract with Montreal on Monday. - Ylonen contributed six goals and 16 points in 37 appearances with the Canadiens last season. He also posted 11 goals and 21 assists over 39 contests for AHL Laval during the 2022-23 campaign. Ylonen could end up splitting time between the NHL and AHL again in 2023-24. None
April 9, 2023 Ylonen was loaned to AHL Laval on Sunday. - Ylonen has supplied six goals and 16 points in 37 games with the Canadiens this season. He has nine goals and 20 assists in 36 AHL contests this campaign. Ylonen could be back with the big club prior to Wednesday's matchup with the Islanders. None
March 29, 2023 Ylonen had an assist, one shot on goal, one hit and one blocked shot over 12:42 of ice time in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Philadelphia. - Ylonen picked up the secondary helper on Rafael Harvey-Pinard's goal late in the third period, extending his point streak to four games. He's been a consistent source of offense over the last two weeks, scoring four goals and assisting on three others during a seven-game segment. None
March 28, 2023 Ylonen had an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots over 15:06 of ice time in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over Buffalo. - Ylonen extended his point streak to three games when he picked up the secondary assist on Brendan Gallagher's third-period strike. The 23-year-old forward has helped Montreal survive the loss of several forwards to injury. He's shown ability on the offensive side but must gain a measure of consistency in his own end to be considered for a regular role next season. None
March 26, 2023 Ylonen (Illness) scored a goal and assisted on another in Saturday's 8-2 win over Columbus. He added four shots over 11:17 of ice time. - Ylonen returned from a two-game absence due to illness and picked up his fourth goal and fifth point over the last five contests. As the Canadiens continue to deal with injured forwards -- Josh Anderson (ankle) went down this week -- while welcoming others back -- Brendan Gallagher and Jake Evans returned -- it looks like Ylonen has a place on the roster for the rest of the season. He has six goals and eight assists over 30 gaems. All six tallies have come in the past 14 games during which Ylonen has an unsustainable 31.6 shooting percentage. None
March 19, 2023 Ylonen scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Lightning. He also had one shot and one hit over 15:13 of ice time - Ylonen unloaded a one-timer off a feed from Mike Hoffman for his first power-play goal. The 23-year-old forward has three goals over the last four games. He had been skating on the first line, but line adjustments resulted in him playing on the second line. Ylonen has five goals and seven assists over 29 contests. None
March 15, 2023 Ylonen scored a goal on one shot and blocked a shot over 13:07 of ice time in Tuesday's 6-4 win over Pittsburgh. - Ylonen scored the second of four first-period goals against Tristan Jarry, who didn't see the forward's wrister coming due to the screen by Rafael Harvey-Pinard. The tally was the second in as many games for Ylonen, who continues to play on the first line. He has 11 points in 27 games since his callup. None
March 13, 2023 Ylonen supplied a goal in an 8-4 loss to Colorado on Monday. - Ylonen found the back of the net midway through the third period, but it only reduced Colorado's lead to 7-3. He has three markers and 10 points in 26 contests in 2022-23. Ylonen didn't score a goal over his previous six contests, and he recorded just one assist in that span. None
March 5, 2023 Ylonen posted an assist in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights. - Ylonen is providing solid middle-six offense lately with two goals and five helpers over his last 11 contests. He's added just 11 shots on net in that span, which suggests that offense is a bit unsustainable until he can start generating more chances. Ylonen replaced Denis Gurianov on the top line midway through the second period; minutes with Nick Suzuki are the reward for good play. The 23-year-old is up to nine points, 25 shots on net, 18 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 22 outings overall. With the Canadiens still battling numerous injuries throughout the lineup, he has significant job security until some forwards return. None
Feb. 28, 2023 Ylonen scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Sharks. - This was Ylonen's second goal in three contests, and it was also the first game-winner of his career. He struck midway through the third period on a pass from Rem Pitlick. Ylonen is up to eight points, 21 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 19 outings this season. The 23-year-old will likely continue to log third-line minutes while the Canadiens have a number of forwards out with injuries. None
Feb. 24, 2023 Ylonen provided a goal and an assist in the Canadiens' 5-2 win over Philadelphia on Friday. - Ylonen's marker at 6:26 of the third period extended Montreal's lead to 4-1. He has a goal and seven points in 17 contests with Montreal this season. The 23-year-old has been doing well offensively over his last six NHL games, providing a goal and four points. Ylonen also has nine goals and 29 points in 36 contests with AHL Laval in 2022-23. None
Feb. 17, 2023 Ylonen had an assist and blocked one shot over 9:36 of ice time in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Hurricanes. - Montreal's fourth line gave the Canadiens an early 1-0 lead, when Ylonen fired a perfect pass to Michael Pezzetta who eventually beat Antti Raanta. It was the second assist in three games for Ylonen, who has four assists over 14 games since being called up to Montreal. None
Feb. 13, 2023 Ylonen had an assist and one blocked shot over 9:58 of ice time in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Oilers. - Ylonen had the secondary helper on Alex Belzile's first-period tally to get Montreal on the board. The assist was Ylonen's third in 11 games since being called up in January. He had been getting TOI on the top line but has since dropped back to the fourth line. None
Feb. 9, 2023 Ylonen was promoted from AHL Laval on Thursday. - Ylonen is expected to slot into a prominent role for the Canadiens following his recall, skating on the third line and the second power-play unit versus the Islanders on Saturday. He's picked up two helpers through 10 top-level appearances this season. None
Jan. 31, 2023 Ylonen was reassigned to AHL Laval on Tuesday. - Ylonen has produced two assists and a minus-4 rating through 10 contests this season. The 23-year-old will have an opportunity to play during the NHL's All-Star break, but with the Canadiens' brutal injury situation, he is likely to be back with the big club ahead of its Feb. 11 game versus the Islanders. None
Jan. 20, 2023 Ylonen had an assist, two shots on goal and two hits over 14:52 of ice time in Thursday's 6-2 loss to Florida. - Ylonen opened the game on the top line -- the second consecutive game for the rookie -- but was dropped to the second line during the second period, when the Panthers scored five goals (four on the power play). He provided assistance on Josh Anderson's tally, his second assist in five games since being called up. With so many injuries hitting Montreal all at once, Ylonen could remain in a top-six role. None
Jan. 18, 2023 Ylonen had two shots on goal over 17:30 of ice time in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Jets. - Ylonen was moved to the first line in the wake of three forwards being placed on injured reserve Tuesday. Montreal also made Jonathan Drouin (undisclosed) inactive for the game. All of that means more playing time, and perhaps an expanded role, for Ylonen. The Canadiens are intrigued by his offensive potential, and Ylonen could get an extended run with top-liners Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield, the most productive scorers on the team. None
Jan. 15, 2023 Ylonen had one hit and two blocked shots over 12:34 of ice time in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Islanders. - Ylonen opened the game on the fourth, but he took shifts with the top line after Jake Evans departed with a lower-body injury. The injury forced adjustments, which included Kirby Dach dropped from the first-line winger to second-line center, while Ylonen and fellow fourth-liner Jonathan Drouin rotated on the elite line with Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield. This was Ylonen's second game with the team since being called up earlier in the week, and he was given over four minutes more of TOI. The Canadiens are intrigued by his offensive potential, but it's unclear if Ylonen will be part of the top line when the Habs face the Rangers on Sunday, a 5:00 PM ET start. None
Jan. 13, 2023 Ylonen had an assist and one shot on goal over 8:21 of ice time in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Predators. - Ylonen was called up earlier in the day from AHL Laval and took a spot on the fourth line. He was second on the Rocket with 27 points in 34 games this season prior to his callup. He showed off that offense with a deft pass to set up Kirby Dach for Montreal's second goal, hinting at the potential value he could bring to the Canadiens. He recorded two goals and three assists over 14 games for the Habs in 2021-22, not bad for what was an offensively challenged team. That part of the game works for Ylonen, but it's his performance in the defensive zone that keeps from solidifying a spot on the NHL roster. None
Jan. 11, 2023 Ylonen was elevated from AHL Laval on Wednesday. - Ylonen has played exclusively in the minors this season, appearing in 34 games for the Rocket in which he notched eight goals and 19 helpers. The 2018 second-round pick could challenge for a spot in the lineup, likely at the expense of Michael Pezzetta or Mike Hoffman, both of whom have spent time as a healthy scratch this season. None
April 11, 2022 Ylonen was reassigned to AHL Laval on Monday. - Ylonen logged 11:23 of ice time in Monday's loss to the Jets before being sent down to the minors. He has five points through 13 NHL games this season, including four over his last seven appearances. None
April 3, 2022 Ylonen scored a goal on one shot over 9:40 of ice time in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over Tampa Bay. - Montreal's fourth-line combined on a nice entry into the offensive zone, and Ylonen one-timed a backhand pass from Ryan Poehling late in the third period to set up overtime and the shootout. It was Ylonen's third point in four games since he was recalled a week ago. None
March 30, 2022 Ylonen had an assist in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to Florida. - The Canadiens had numbers on the rush and Ylonen hit Chris Wideman, who jumped up into the play and scored the game's first goal. It was the second straight game with an assist for Ylonen, who was an emergency callup over the weekend. He's skating on the fourth line. None
March 27, 2022 Ylonen notched an assist in Sunday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Devils. - With injuries piling up again, Ylonen was recalled from AHL Laval under emergency conditions and immediately entered the lineup. He made an impact right away, setting up a Josh Anderson tally in the second period. Ylonen has three points, eight shots on net and a plus-3 rating through eight appearances this season. The 22-year-old will likely head back to Laval once the Canadiens get some players back from injury. None
March 17, 2022 Ylonen was reassigned to AHL Laval on Thurday, per CapFriendly. - Ylonen was called up Tuesday but didn't suit up during his most recent stint with the big club. He'll head back to Laval, where he's chipped in a productive 27 points in 40 games this season. None
March 15, 2022 Ylonen was recalled from AHL Laval on Tuesday. - Ylonen played in seven consecutive games for big club from Dec. 9 to Jan. 1 -- recording two points -- but has spent the rest of the campaign with Laval. He's produced 27 points in 40 AHL games, so the organization would no doubt love if Ylonen could translate his scoring touch to the NHL level. None
Jan. 17, 2022 Ylonen was reassigned to AHL Laval on Monday. - The 22-year-old has produced two points in seven games with the big club this season. Ylonen will head back to the Rocket looking to build upon his 14 points in 17 AHL games in 2021-22. None
Jan. 15, 2022 Ylonen cleared COVID-19 protocols Saturday and is currently skating in Montreal, Eric Engels of Sportsnet.ca reports. - Ylonen could join Montreal on the road at some point before the team's next home game on Jan. 27. The rookie winger has two points in seven NHL appearances this season. None
Jan. 4, 2022 Ylonen was designated for the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Tuesday. - Ylonen has averaged 12:54 of ice time, 1:30 during the man advantage, and tallied one goal and one assist through his seven performances this season. The next contest on the Canadiens schedule is on Jan 12. against Boston. Due to the extended break in games, the Arizona-born winger should be eligible to return without an absence recorded. None
Jan. 2, 2022 Ylonen had an assist, one shot on goal and one hit over 14:44 of ice time in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Florida. - Ylonen, who skated on the top line with Nick Suzuki and Jonathan Drouin, picked up the primary assist on Montreal's second goal. His shot rebounded to the stick of Suzuki, who had a wide-open net. It was young forward's second assist since being called up from AHL Laval seven games ago. It's unclear what Montreal's plan for Ylonen is going forward. The team's next four games have been postponed, and the Canadiens don't return to action until Jan. 12 in Boston. By then, several players should be reinstated from the COVID-19 protocols list. None
Dec. 15, 2021 Ylonen scored a goal on four shots and registered a hit in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Pittsburgh. - Ylonen one-timed a feed from Jonathan Drouin to score his first NHL goal with three seconds left in the second period. The marker closed the deficit to 3-2 and seemingly gave Montreal momentum entering the final period, but the boost was ephemeral when the Penguins scored 28 seconds into the final stanza. Ylonen, who is up from the AHL while the Habs deal with a long list of injuries, was moved up to the second line for the game. After the 23-year-old forward registered one shot over his first two games, the four shots Tuesday suggest he's reaching a comfort level with the more games played. None
Dec. 12, 2021 Ylonen had one hit over 11:12 of ice time in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Blues. - Ylonen was recently called up from AHL Laval amid a spate of forward injuries for Montreal. He's skated on the fourth line in two contests but has appeared on the Canadiens' power play in each game. Ylonen has one shot on net, one hit and one blocked shot while averaging 9:07 TOI per game. None
Dec. 8, 2021 Ylonen was recalled from AHL Laval on Wednesday. - Ylonen has been lighting it up in the minors with four goals and 10 helpers in 17 games for the Rocket. With injuries decimating the forward ranks, Ylonen may be pressed into service versus the Blackhawks on Thursday. If he does play, it would be just the second NHL game for Ylonen who made his debut in 2020-21. None
May 12, 2021 Jesse Ylonen had 11:23 of ice time in the Canadiens' 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers on Wednesday. He took one shot and had a plus-minus of even for the game. None
