Bennett registered two assists (one on the power play), three shots on goal and two PIM in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Oilers.

Bennett has two goals and three assists over his last four contests, though he missed one game due to an undisclosed injury in that span. For the season, he has a career-best 53 points in just 67 outings, surpassing his 51-point output from 76 regular-season games a year ago. Bennett has added 177 shots on net, 111 hits and 76 PIM while seeing steady top-six minutes.

Haight posted an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Blackhawks.

Haight's helper was his first career NHL point. The 21-year-old is filling in while the Wild are missing Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body), who is considered day-to-day but won't play Saturday versus the Stars. Haight has added six shots on net, six hits and a minus-3 rating over six outings in a fourth-line role in his first taste of NHL action this year.

Schenn scored a goal on three shots and added five PIM in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Senators.

Schenn brought some early intensity by fighting Ridly Greig in the first period. In the third, Schenn put the Islanders ahead 2-1 with his goal, but the lead wouldn't last. The 34-year-old center is fitting in well on the second line with four points in six games since he was traded from the Blues. Through 67 outings overall, he has 14 goals, 18 assists, 98 shots on net, 147 hits, 31 blocked shots, 56 PIM and a minus-24 rating.

Lundell scored a power-play goal in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Oilers.

Lundell gave the Panthers a 3-0 lead at 14:21 of the second period with a snap shot in what was his 18th goal of the season -- and his fourth on the power play. Lundell is just two points away from setting a new career high, and his goal Thursday tied his previous personal-best mark from 2021-22, which was his rookie year. Lundell should establish a new career-high mark in scoring sooner rather than later as long as he stays healthy.

Verhaeghe scored a goal in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Oilers.

Verhaeghe reached the 20-goal mark in the third period to close out the scoring. He was coming off a two-assist performance against the Canucks the last time out, and the 30-year-old veteran continues to find ways to get involved offensively. He has cracked the scoresheet in four of his last five appearances, tallying six points (three goals, three assists) over that span.

Pinto scored a shorthanded goal and added two hits in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Islanders.

Pinto's productive March continues. He has three goals and five assists over nine outings this month, contributing well from a third-line role. The center is up to 18 goals, 37 points, 130 shots on net, 80 hits, 39 blocked shots, 38 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 58 appearances. He's earned more shorthanded points (three) than power-play points (two) this year.

O'Reilly scored a power-play goal in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Kraken.

This was O'Reilly's second goal of the month, but the lack of productivity hasn't been due to a lack of chances since the 35-year-old veteran has recorded at least two shots on goal in seven of his eight contests in March. O'Reilly has been productive despite the recent slump, as he has 62 points (23 goals, 39 assists) in 67 games this season. As long as he continues to skate on the first line and attempt enough shots, the goals should come for O'Reilly.

Toews scored a power-play goal on four shots in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Bruins.

Toews has scored in consecutive contests. This was his first power-play tally since Jan. 15 versus the Wild. The 37-year-old center is up to nine goals, 23 points (six with the man advantage), 93 shots on net, 30 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-18 rating over 68 outings.

Gaudreau scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Predators.

Gaudreau scored the Kraken's lone goal in this loss, but he's not known for being much of a scoring force. This was just his fifth goal of the campaign, and it was also the first time he found the back of the net since Jan. 5 in a win over the Flames. Considering his fourth-line role and 9.3 percent shooting across his 54 appearances in 2025-26, Gaudreau is not expected to be much of a scoring force in the final weeks of the regular season.

Mittelstadt notched two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Jets.

Mittelstadt has four helpers over his last five games. While he hasn't scored in nine contests, he remains a productive playmaker from a second-line role for the Bruins. The 27-year-old is up to 36 points, 70 shots on net and a plus-9 rating over 59 appearances.
