J.T. Miller C | NYR
Rangers' J.T. Miller: Tallies twice in Tuesday's loss
Miller scored two goals on seven shots and added three hits in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Kings.
This was a fourth straight multi-point effort for the 32-year-old center. He has two goals and six assists in that span, but his pair of tallies Tuesday left the Rangers a goal short of a comeback. He's up to 13 goals, 32 points, 97 shots, 87 hits, 14 PIM and a minus-17 rating across 42 appearances this season, offering enough all-around production to remain useful in fantasy.

Oilers' Matt Savoie: Nets lone goal in loss
Savoie scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Devils.
Savoie had gone 16 games without a goal, picking up just three assists with 15 shots on net in that span. The 22-year-old continues to be a regular in the Oilers' lineup, though he's often been in a bottom-six role lately. He's now at eight goals, 16 points, 67 shots on net, 25 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating across 51 appearances in his first full NHL campaign.

Devils' Cody Glass: Pair of points in Tuesday's win
Glass scored a goal on four shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Oilers.
Glass set up Arseny Gritsyuk's opening tally at 5:23 of the second period. The two reversed roles a few minutes later, with Glass's goal ultimately being the game-winner. The 26-year-old center has four goals and two assists over his last six contests. For the season, Glass is up to 11 goals, four helpers, 68 shots on net, 29 hits, 19 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 39 appearances.

Jake Guentzel C | TB
Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Second straight two-point game
Guentzel had a goal and an assist Tuesday in a 4-1 win over San Jose.
He has put up back-to-back two-point games (two goals, two assists). Guentzel fired just four shots in those two games, including only one Tuesday. He had 13 shots in his previous two games. Since the calendar flipped to 2026, Guentzel has 12 points (four goals, eight assists) and 25 shots in nine games. He also has one game-winning goal and four power-play points (one goal) in that span.

Jordan Kyrou C | STL
Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Finally ends goal drought
Kyrou scored a power-play goal on three shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Jets.
This was Kyrou's first goal since Dec. 1 versus the Ducks. He picked up five assists over 13 appearances in that span, though he also missed nine games due to a lower-body injury. Kyrou is supposed to be better than this, but he's arguably worn the Blues' struggles this season more than most of the team's players. He's at nine goals, 21 points, 97 shots on net and a minus-9 rating across 40 appearances. It would take an improbably large surge of scoring for him to earn a fourth straight 30-goal campaign.

Mark Scheifele C | WPG
Jets' Mark Scheifele: Racks up three points in win
Scheifele scored twice and added an assist in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Blues.
Scheifele's first goal came on the power play and stood as the game-winner. He also had an empty-netter, and his assist on Josh Morrissey's opening goal came with the man advantage as well. In January, Scheifele has stayed hot with seven goals and nine helpers through 11 contests. He's up to 25 goals, 61 points (14 on the power play), 103 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 49 appearances.

Brandon Gorzynski C | DAL
Stars' Brandon Gorzynski: One of each in WHL blowout win
Gorzynski scored a goal and added an assist in WHL Prince Albert's 12-2 win over Victoria on Tuesday.
Gorzynski is up to six goals and 11 helpers since he was traded to the Raiders from the Hitmen. Overall, he's up to 19 goals, 46 points and 117 shots on net over 39 appearances this season. That's already better than his 42-point output from 68 regular-season contests in 2024-25. The Stars prospect should continue to be a force on offense for a team that's in a four-way race for the top of the WHL standings.

Anthony Cirelli C | TB
Lightning's Anthony Cirelli: Status uncertain after early exit
Cirelli left Tuesday's game versus the Sharks due to an undisclosed issue, and head coach Jon Cooper didn't have an update on the center's status after the game, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Cooper didn't seem too concerned about Cirelli, but added that the team would see how he's doing Wednesday. He'll be considered day-to-day leading into a road back-to-back this weekend. The Lightning visit the Blackhawks on Friday and the Blue Jackets on Saturday. Prior to his exit, Cirelli scored a goal and an assist, giving him 13 tallies and 30 points through 44 outings this season.

Brett Howden C | LV
Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Moves to IR
Howden (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.
Vegas recalled Jonas Rondbjerg from AHL Henderson in a corresponding move. Howden has missed the last five games and isn't expected to return until after February's Olympic break. He has accounted for nine goals, 15 points, 46 shots on net and 66 hits across 39 appearances this season.

Isac Lundestrom C | CLB
Blue Jackets' Isac Lundestrom: Taken off injured reserve
Lundestrom (lower body) was activated off injured reserve ahead of Tuesday's clash with Ottawa.
Where Lundestrom fits into the lineup remains to be seen, but he's far from a lock to play on a nightly basis even with his injury concerns behind him. In 35 appearances this year, the 26-year-old Swede has generated just one goal, four assists and 30 shots. As such, Lundestrom's return is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy managers.
