    Canadiens' Nick Suzuki: Plates two apples Saturday

    Suzuki supplied two assists in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Bruins.

    Suzuki extended his point streak to five games Saturday with a pair of power-play assists to help Cole Caufield secure his hat trick in the second period. With the helpers, Suzuki is up to 43 assists, 59 points, 111 shots on net, 40 hits and 44 blocks through 52 games this season. He has four multi-point performances during this five-game point streak. Suzuki's tied for ninth in the NHL with 43 assists.

  • Bruins' Fraser Minten: Tallies pair of points Saturday

    Minten scored a goal and distributed an assist in Saturday's 4-3 win over Montreal.

    Minten delivered the game-tying goal for the Bruins late in the contest before Morgan Geekie scored the goal-ahead tally 12 seconds later. With Saturday's twine finder, Minten has 13 goals, 25 points, 69 shots on net, 95 hits and 33 blocks across 52 games this season. The 21-year-old center has soared in his first full season with the Bruins, as he's carved out steady ice time as the team's third-line center. Since Dec. 31, he has seven goals, 12 points and four multi-point performances over his last 12 games. During this span, he has noticeably increased his shot attempts with 23 shots on goal, which is a third of his season total. Minten's all-around play style warrants him streaming value across standard fantasy leagues and makes him a must-roster player in many dynasty-league formats.

  • Seth Jarvis C | CAR

    Hurricanes' Seth Jarvis: Two points including game-winner

    Jarvis scored the game-winning goal and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-1 victory over Ottawa.

    The 23-year-old winger gave Carolina a 2-0 lead early in the first period, ripping a shot past James Reimer from the faceoff dot to the netminder's left. Jarvis has been productive since returning from an upper-body injury in early January, and over the last 10 games he's racked up four goals and 10 points, including two goals and four assists with the man advantage.

  • Bruins' Morgan Geekie: Nets pair of power-play goals

    Geekie scored two power-play goals, including the game-winning tally, placed three shots on net and dished out two hits in Saturday's 4-3 win over Montreal.

    Geekie played the hero in Saturday's contest with a power-play goal in the second period to tie the contest before he later scored the go-ahead tally just 12 seconds after Fraser Minten leveled the game at three apiece. Overall, the 27-year-old Geekie is up to 28 goals, 47 points, 118 shots on net and 82 hits through 51 games this season. Since a one-game absence for the birth of his son, he has six points and two multi-point efforts in six games. Dating back to Jan. 1, 2025, he is tied for third across the NHL with 53 goals.

  • Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Goals in consecutive games

    Protas scored a goal on four shots and went minus-3 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Oilers.

    Protas looks to be getting his game back after a three-game absence due to a lower-body injury early in January. He's scored in back-to-back games and has three points over his last five outings. The 25-year-old forward is up to 18 goals, 34 points, 112 shots on net and a plus-15 rating through 50 contests this season. While well off the pace of his 66-point campaign from 76 regular-season games last year, Protas is lighting the lamp at almost the same rate that netted him 30 goals in 2024-25 and is still a key forward for the Capitals.

  • Dylan Strome C | WAS

    Capitals' Dylan Strome: Nets power-play tally

    Strome scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Oilers.

    Strome has three goals and three assists during his four-game point streak. Four of his six points in that span have come on the power play. The 28-year-old center is up to 14 goals, 42 points (15 on the power play), 101 shots on net, 33 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 51 appearances.

  • Capitals' Connor McMichael: Two-point effort Saturday

    McMichael scored a goal on five shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Oilers.

    McMichael's goal put the Capitals ahead 5-4 with 4:51 left in the third period, but the lead didn't last. That tally secured his first multi-point effort since Jan. 9 versus the Blackhawks, and it ended a five-game point drought. Through 53 contests, McMichael has eight goals, 30 points, 104 shots on net, 27 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating. He's still shooting just 7.7 percent, so there's some room for increased production if his luck turns around.

  • Oilers' Trent Frederic: Struggling on offense

    Frederic is in a 22-game point drought after failing to get on the scoresheet in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

    The Oilers have tried just about everything to get Frederic going -- he's been scratched twice during the slump and has also seen occasional top-six minutes -- but it hasn't worked. The 27-year-old has a pitiful three points, 44 shots on net, 124 hits, 37 PIM and a minus-11 rating over 51 appearances. Frederic's eight-year contract with a $3.85 million cap hit is already aging like milk, though he brings some toughness even in a fourth-line role.

  • Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Crosses 600-assist mark in career

    Draisaitl provided three assists, four shots on goal, two PIM, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

    Draisaitl logged the 600th assist of his career on an Evan Bouchard goal in the second period. Draisaitl didn't stop there, helping out Bouchard again in the third and Connor McDavid in overtime. Through nine outings in January, Draisaitl has five goals and eight assists. He's up to 25 goals, 45 helpers, 144 shots on net, 24 PIM and a plus-9 rating over 50 appearances this season.

  • Zach Hyman C | EDM

    Oilers' Zach Hyman: Two-point game in high-scoring win

    Hyman scored a goal on six shots, added an assist and went plus-3 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

    Hyman's 20th goal of the season was clutch, tying the game at 5-5 with 32 seconds left in the third period. The winger has seven goals and three assists over his last eight outings. For the season, Hyman has accumulated 33 points (11 on the power play), 109 shots on net, 34 hits and a plus-10 rating through 34 appearances.
