Jack Roslovic C | EDM
Hurricanes' Jack Roslovic: Point streak at five games
Roslovic scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.
Roslovic has four goals and three assists during his five-game point streak. The winger has bounced around the lineup at times, but he's done well when he gets to play alongside Sebastian Aho on the top line. Roslovic is on his way to a career year -- he already has 17 goals to go with eight assists, 75 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating through 37 contests. Just two of his points have come on the power play, so a little more production in that area could help him find another level as well.

Penguins' Cody Glass: Assists in consecutive games
Glass produced an assist and two PIM in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Glass briefly left the game in the second period but was back for the start of the third. The 25-year-old forward earned an assist for the second straight game when he set up the first of Drew O'Connor's two goals in the contest. Glass is likely to remain in the bottom six, so he doesn't carry a ton of fantasy value, but he can be streamed when his offense is clicking. He's at nine points, 37 shots on net, 16 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating over 26 appearances.

Dylan Larkin C | DET
Red Wings' Dylan Larkin: Deposits empty-netter
Larkin scored an empty-net goal on three shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Penguins.
Larkin is on a three-game point streak with a goal and two assists in that span. He had gone 15 contests without a goal prior to Tuesday, but he earned 10 assists while firing 41 shots over that stretch. The 28-year-old center has had a down year, but he's still among the Red Wings' top forwards with 13 goals, 16 assists, 98 shots on net and a minus-8 rating through 37 appearances.

Justin Hryckowian C | DAL
Stars' Justin Hryckowian: Returns to AHL
Hryckowian was reassigned to AHL Texas on Wednesday.
Hryckowian has no points and three hits in two appearances with Dallas in 2024-25. While he hasn't done much for Dallas, the 23-year-old has been a major contributor for Texas, providing 12 goals and 26 points through 27 outings this season.

Maple Leafs' Auston Matthews: Making progress, but not ready
Matthews (upper body) took part in Wednesday's practice, but he won't play Thursday versus the Islanders, per Dave McCarthy of NHL.com.
Although Matthews is making progress, there isn't a timetable for his return. Thursday will mark his sixth straight game on the shelf, and that's in addition to the nine outings he missed from Nov. 5-27 due to the same injury. He has 11 goals and 23 points in 24 appearances in 2024-25.

Sean Monahan C | CLB
Blue Jackets' Sean Monahan: Three-point effort against Carolina
Monahan notched three assists, one on the power play, in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Hurricanes.
It's been an incredibly emotional first season for Monahan in Columbus, but he's risen to the occasion and has found another gear heading into the new year. Over the last six games, the veteran center has four multi-point performances, compiling four goals and 11 points over that stretch. Monahan's provided the Blue Jackets with a true first-line threat, and through 38 appearances he's produced 13 goals and 36 points while also helping younger players like Kirill Marchenko and Dmitri Voronkov take a big step forward.

Ryan Strome C | CGY
Ducks' Ryan Strome: Two-point effort Tuesday
Strome recorded a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Devils. He also recorded two shots on goal, one hit, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating.
Strome recorded his first multi-point effort since delivering two assists in a 3-2 loss to the Maple Leafs on Dec. 12, but perhaps more importantly, he scored the game-winning goal in this contest with only 3:24 left in the third period. Strome has cracked the scoresheet in five of his last nine games since that two-point performance, tallying seven points (two goals, five helpers) in that stretch. Those aren't eye-popping numbers by any means, but the 31-year-old center is certainly trending in the right direction after a slow start to the campaign.

Robby Fabbri C | MIN
Ducks' Robby Fabbri: Scores vs. New Jersey
Fabbri recorded a goal, three shots on goal and a blocked shot in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Devils.
Fabbri endured a tough start to the campaign and also missed 13 games in a row between Nov. 13 and Dec. 11 due to a knee injury, but he's been very productive since returning to the ice. The 28-year-old has three multi-point efforts in nine games since returning, tallying four goals and four assists over that stretch. He's also cracked the scoresheet in four of his previous five outings.

Travis Konecny RW | PHI
Flyers' Travis Konecny: Scores PP goal Tuesday
Konecny recorded a power-play goal in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Sharks. He also had two PIM, three shots, one hit and two blocked shots.
Konecny snapped a five-game goal drought with his power-play tally on the final day of December, but he's been very productive in recent weeks despite his scoring drought. The 27-year-old cracked the scoresheet in eight of his 12 appearances this month, tallying four goals (two on the power play) and eight helpers in that stretch. On the season, Konecny is up to 42 points (17 goals, 25 assists) across 38 games, making him one of the most productive players in the Flyers' roster.

Ryan Poehling C | ANA
Flyers' Ryan Poehling: Scores in win Tuesday
Poehling scored a goal, took six shots and recorded a hit in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Sharks.
Poehling cracked the scoresheet for the second game in a row, the third time over the last four, and the fifth over his previous eight contests. The 25-year-old center has two goals and three assists in that span, and while the lack of consistency could be an issue for the first-line center, he's been productive in recent weeks -- especially since he went through a seven-game pointless streak between Nov. 29 and Dec. 12 right before this aforementioned eight-game stretch.
