Second career hat trick Armia put up a hat trick in a 6-2 win over the Capitals on Thursday.
Impact It was his second NHL hat trick. Armia's first goal put the Habs up 2-1 when he scored shorthanded from the inside edge of the left circle at 7:52 of the second. His second made it 4-1 at 11:15 of the same frame on a one-timer from above the circles. Armia completed the trick with an empty-net goal late in the third to make it 5-2. It was his third game back after missing 19 games with a respiratory infection. The goals gave Armia seven on the season (14 points). Nice night, but there's little fantasy impact here.

Will play Saturday Armia will return to the lineup versus Carolina on Saturday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Impact Armia has missed the last 19 games with an upper respiratory infection. He practiced in a regular jersey Friday will replace the injured Rafael Harvey-Pinard (undisclosed). He has four goals and 11 points in 37 games this season.

Skating Friday Armia (illness) is practicing with a regular jersey Friday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Impact Armia was in a non-contact jersey Thursday and did not play versus the Panthers. He is expected to return Saturday against Carolina. Armia has four goals and seven assists in 37 contests this season.
MARCH 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Not playing Thursday Armia (illness) will not play Thursday versus Florida, Patrick Friolet of RDS reports.
Impact Armia was in a non-contact jersey at practice Thursday and has been ruled out against the Panthers. He has missed the last 18 games and could return as early as Saturday versus Carolina. He has four goals and 11 points in 37 games this season.
MARCH 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Still not practicing Armia (illness) wasn't on the ice for Monday's game-day skate and is expected to remain unavailable versus Colorado.
Impact At this point, Armia should probably be considered out indefinitely due to his upper-respiratory problem considering he has been sidelined since Feb. 21 versus the Devils, a stretch of nine games on the shelf. Once given the green light to return, Armia should be in the mix for a spot in the bottom six.

Not traveling with team Armia (illness) won't go to California with the Canadiens.
Impact Armia's absence is likely to last a few more games as he recovers from an upper respiratory infection. Assuming he doesn't join the Canadiens on the road, Armia is likely to be out at least until March 7 versus the Hurricanes.

Won't return Saturday Armia (illness) isn't expected to play Saturday against Ottawa, per Arpon Basu of The Athletic.
Impact Armia will miss his second straight game. He has four goals and 11 points in 37 contests in 2022-23. With Armia still unavailable, Chris Tierney is projected to play in his second straight game.
FEBRUARY 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable Friday Armia (illness) is questionable for Friday's tilt versus the Flyers.
Impact Armia logged only 2:30 of ice time against the Devils on Tuesday before leaving the game with an illness. Armia missed practice Thursday and his status for Friday is up in the air. Armia has four goals and 11 points in 37 games this season.
FEBRUARY 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Exits Tuesday's contest Armia (undisclosed) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Devils.
Impact Armia was injured in the first period. The 29-year-old has a goal and three assists over five games since he returned from an upper-body injury -- it's unclear if this absence is related to that previous issue or if it's a new injury altogether. The Canadiens' next game is Friday in Philadelphia.

Logs power-play assist Armia had a power-play assist over 14:43 of ice time in Thursday's 6-2 loss to Carolina.
Impact Armia and Mike Hoffman teamed up to aide Rafael Harvey-Pinard's tally in the second period. It was the fourth consecutive game with a point for Armia. The Canadiens would love to move him at the trade deadline, but Armia still has two years left on his contract.
FEBRUARY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Two-point effort Tuesday Armia scored a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 4-0 win over Chicago.
Impact Both points came in the third period as the Canadiens pulled away. Armia has three points in two games since returning from an upper-body injury that cost him eight contests, but his middle-six role on a middling offense and lack of power-play time make him a tough player to add to most fantasy rosters.

Posts assist in return Armia had an assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and two PIM over 15:19 of ice time in Sunday's 6-2 win over Edmonton.
Impact Armia returned to the lineup after missing eight games with an upper-body injury. He skated on the third line and registered his fifth point in the last seven contests. Overall, the 29-year-old forward has just eight points in 33 games.
