The active roster, numbers, positions, shoots/catches, height, weight, birth dates and birthplaces come from the NHL’s official roster data; each name links to the player’s NHL.com page. Season stats are the NHL’s regular-season club stats. The list is cross-checked against ESPN’s roster, which also carries players on injured reserve and non-roster IR; those appear in their own group with ESPN’s status and the date ESPN last updated it. Contract figures are not shown.
