  • Lightning's Brayden Point: Trio of apples in win

    Point delivered a three-assist performance Saturday in a 7-2 win over Philadelphia.

    Point's five-game scoring streak was snapped Tuesday against the Avs, but he's right back on the horse. His overall 29 points in 36 games don't leap off the page, especially for a guy with his pedigree. However, Point has really added some nitrous oxide to his game over the last month. He has 18 points, including 11 helpers, and 29 shots in his last 14 games. Point is the sizzle and the steak right now.

  • J.T. Miller C | NYR

    Rangers' J.T. Miller: Goal may light fire under team

    Miller scored a goal Saturday in a 10-2 loss to Boston.

    He has a goal and an assist in two games since his return from injury, and he's earned two tallies and two helpers in his last four appearances. Miller's overall fantasy contributions this season have been less than managers have expected, but his talent is undeniable. He also adds grit and intensity to the table to help in banger leagues.

  • Rangers' Mika Zibanejad: Five-game, 11-point streak

    Zibanejad scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 10-2 loss to the Bruins.

    The Rangers as a whole have had a rough ride lately, going 3-5-2 in their last 10 games. However, Zibanejad has been a bright spot while amassing five goals and six assists during a five-game scoring streak. One of the goals and five of those assists have come on the power play. Overall, Zibanejad has 17 goals, 23 assists and 120 shots in 45 games this season. He's on pace for a 30-goal, 73-point campaign. Still, his minus-14 rating could be a problem in some fantasy formats

  • Bruins' Fraser Minten: Seven points in last five games

    Minten scored twice and had an assist in a 10-2 victory over the Rangers on Saturday.

    Minten has three multi-point games (four goals, three assists; 14 shots) in his last five games. With that burst, he has 20 points (10 goals, 10 assists) and 60 shots in 45 games this campaign. Minten slid up the lineup once Elias Lindholm left the game due to a lower-body injury, and Minten will likely find himself in the top six should Lindholm be unavailable Sunday versus Pittsburgh.

  • T.J. Tynan C | COL

    Avalanche's T.J. Tynan: Returns to AHL

    Tynan was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Saturday.

    Tynan was recalled to the Avalanche earlier in the day, recorded a shot in 8:13 of ice time during Colorado's 4-0 win over Columbus and then promptly returned to the minors. Tynan has a goal and 26 points in 30 AHL outings in 2025-26.

  • Bruins' Morgan Geekie: Didn't complete Saturday's game

    Geekie left Saturday's 10-2 win over the Rangers before its conclusion to attend to a family matter.

    Geekie had one shot in 6:14 of ice time before exiting the game. He has 25 goals and 41 points in 44 appearances in 2025-26. Elias Lindholm (lower body) also left Saturday's clash before its conclusion, so Jeffrey Viel and Michael Eyssimont might draw into the lineup Sunday versus Pittsburgh.

  • Kings' Cole Guttman: Returns to AHL

    Guttman was reassigned to AHL Ontario on Saturday.

    Guttman was scratched for the only game he spent on the NHL roster. With Corey Perry (personal) coming back from the non-roster list, Guttman is no longer needed as a depth forward and will return to the Reign to wait for his next opportunity.

  • Pavel Zacha C | BOS

    Bruins' Pavel Zacha: Big game puts him in record book

    Zacha scored three goals in a 10-2 win over the Rangers on Saturday.

    Zacha put the winner behind Jonathan Quick on a 5-on-3 power play near the end of the first period. Both Zacha and Marat Khusnutdinov put up hat tricks, though Khusnutdinov finished with four tallies in the contest. It was the first double hat-trick game for the Bruins since 1964, and the first on home ice. The duo are the first teammates to each score their first NHL hat trick in the same game since Pittsburgh's Pascal Dupuis and Petr Sykora did it on Dec. 11, 2008, per Joe McDonald of NHL.com. Zacha is on a three-game, five-point scoring streak (three goals, two assists). He has 13 goals, 31 points and 67 shots on net in 44 contests this campaign.

  • Wild's Joel Eriksson Ek: Out of action Saturday

    Eriksson Ek (lower body) won't play Saturday versus the Islanders, Sarah McLellan of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

    Eriksson Ek will miss at least one game due to the injury. Ben Jones will draw into the Wild's lineup Saturday, but Ryan Hartman and Danila Yurov figure to get the biggest bumps in ice time to cover Eriksson Ek's absence. Eriksson Ek is considered day-to-day heading into Monday's game against the Devils.

  • Bruins' Marat Khusnutdinov: Pops off for four goals, one helper

    Khusnutdinov had four goals and an assist in a 10-2 win over the Rangers on Saturday.

    Khusnutdinov popped off Saturday with his first multi-goal performance in the NHL and his first hat trick. He converted all four shots on net in the game. Khusnutdinov is a small, aggressive forward with great speed and smarts. Playing on the Bruins' top line with David Pastrnak and Elias Lindholm (lower body) has resulted in a three-game, seven-point streak (four goals, three assists) for Khusnutdinov. Khusnutdinov has 20 points (nine goals, 11 assists) and 44 shots in 40 games this season.
