  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Scores in return to lineup

    Sillinger scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Blues.

    Sillinger missed the 6-2 win over the Kraken on Thursday due to an illness, but the 21-year-old center returned to action and found the back of the net in the latter stages of the second frame with a power-play tally to give Columbus a 2-0 lead. This was Sillinger's first goal since Dec. 17, when he notched a power-play tally in a 5-3 loss to the Lightning. He's up to 23 points on 41 games this season, racking up seven goals and 16 assists, but he seems to be trending in the right direction after cracking the scoresheet in three of his last four appearances.

  • Blue Jackets' Adam Fantilli: Keeps point streak alive

    Fantilli scored a goal and took six shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Blues.

    Fantilli found the back of the net in the latter stages of the first period and not only gave the Blue Jackets an early lead. He also extended his point streak to five games, a stretch in which he's racked up six points (three goals, three assists). The 20-year-old playmaker looks on pace to improve the numbers he delivered as a rookie in 2023-24, as he's up to 21 points (10 goals, 11 assists) in 43 games this season. He notched 27 points on 49 appearances as a rookie.

  • Morgan Frost C | PHI

    Flyers' Morgan Frost: Two-point performance

    Frost had an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Ducks.

    Frost found the back of the net for the second game in a row, as he also recorded a goal in the 4-1 loss to the Stars on Thursday, and he's been productive in recent weeks. The 25-year-old has notched six points, with three goals and three assists, across his last eight regular-season appearances.

  • Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Goal, assist, four hits

    Poehling had a goal, an assist, two shots on goal, four hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Ducks.

    Poehling was one of several players who recorded multi-point efforts for the Flyers in this sounding win, and he snapped a four-game pointless streak in the process. The fourth-line center isn't known for his fantasy contributions, however, and he's racked up just five points (two goals, three assists) over his last 10 games. Don't expect him to be a sought-after fantasy option after this matchup, in which he recorded a multi-point effort for the second time in 2024-25.

  • Flyers' Travis Konecny: Shines with four-assist outing

    Konecny recorded four assists, including two on the power play, in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Ducks.

    The Flyers delivered a complete performance Saturday and Konecky was at the center of it. He got directly involved in four of the team's six goals and tied his season-high output in the assists category. This was the third time he recorded at least four points in a single game in 2024-25, and the 12th occasion in which he recorded a multi-point effort. The 27-year-old winger has racked up 50 points (20 goals, 30 assists) in 43 outings this season and is on pace to shatter his previous season-high mark of 68 points established last season as long as he stays healthy.

  • Nick Paul C | TB

    Lightning's Nick Paul: Plucks apple Saturday

    Paul notched an assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Devils.

    Paul has a goal and two assists during a three-game point streak. The 29-year-old has filled a middle-six role this season, and occasionally he's been able to go on brief runs of offense. His longest point streak of the campaign is six games from Oct. 19-28. Overall, Paul has 23 points, 58 shots on net, 28 hits, 20 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 34 appearances.

  • Canucks' Elias Pettersson: First point since return

    Pettersson notched an assist and five blocked shots in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Maple Leafs.

    Pettersson was able to get on the scoresheet early in his second game back from an undisclosed injury. He helped out on a Brock Boeser tally just 31 seconds into this game. Pettersson saw just 16:08 of ice time, but the Canucks rested a handful of key forwards while in control of this contests, which was the second half of a back-to-back. The 26-year-old center is at 10 goals, 19 helpers, 67 shots on net, 44 blocked shots, 34 hits and a minus-3 rating through 36 outings. Getting Pettersson in peak form will be key for the Canucks to keep their place in what could be a tight wild-card race over the second half of the campaign.

  • Flames' Blake Coleman: Records helper in win

    Coleman provided an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

    Coleman has four points over four games in January. He set up Matthew Coronato's game-tying goal in the second period of this contest. For the season, the 33-year-old Coleman is up to nine goals, 21 points, 93 shots on net, 79 hits, 37 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 41 outings in a middle-six role.

  • Nazem Kadri C | CGY

    Flames' Nazem Kadri: Draws power-play helper

    Kadri notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

    Kadri has a point in four of his last five contests (two goals, two assists). He had the secondary helper on Jonathan Huberdeau's game-winning tally early in the third period of Saturday's game. Overall, Kadri continues to be consistent on offense in a top-line role with 29 points (nine on the power play), 140 shots on net, 30 hits, 42 PIM and a minus-13 rating through 41 outings.

  • Flames' Jonathan Huberdeau: Scores game-winner on power play

    Huberdeau scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

    Huberdeau put Calgary ahead with a third-period tally, and it stood as the game-winner, his second such goal in as many games. The winger has racked up 10 goals and five assists over his last 14 appearances, including five power-play points in that span. For the season, he has 18 goals, 31 points (10 on the power play), 74 shots on net and a minus-8 rating through 41 appearances, putting him on pace to top the 60-point mark for the first time in three years.
