McCann scored an empty-net goal and added an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

With the two-point effort, McCann has nine goals and 19 points over 16 outings in January. This was his fifth multi-point effort of the month, three of which have come in the last five games. The 29-year-old is up to 15 goals, 13 assists, 70 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over 29 appearances. Time lost to injuries will cost him a chance at a career year, but his per-game production is better than ever.

Wright scored two goals and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

Wright put the Kraken ahead 2-1 in the second period and added an insurance tally in the third. Prior to Thursday, Wright had been limited to three helpers over his last 12 contests. The 22-year-old center is up to nine goals, 20 points, 79 shots on net, 42 hits, 40 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 53 appearances. His increase in shot volume this season has been offset by reduced efficiency, and he's likely to fall short of matching his 44-point campaign from 2024-25.

Colton (lower body) scored a goal Thursday in a 7-3 loss to the Canadiens.

Colton had missed three games. He played 12:37 with two shots, three hits and one block. The goal was Colton's first in 26 games (eight assists). We'd like to recommend him as a depth fill on your roster, but we need to see more offense before that's a sensible option.

Gaudette scored a goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers.

Gaudette has scored in consecutive contests. The 29-year-old forward is holding down a spot on the third line for now, though he's not featuring on the power play, which has typically been a strong area for him. He's at 12 goals, 19 points (six on the power play), 63 shots on net, 40 hits and a minus-9 rating over 42 appearances this season. Gaudette has a good enough scoring touch to work his way into the mix in deep fantasy formats.

Misa scored a goal and added two hits in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers.

Misa picked up his first goal in eight outings since returning from the World Junior Championship. The 18-year-old center has earned four points in that span and looks to be gaining some confidence in a third-line role. Misa is up to two goals, seven points, 21 shots on net and a plus-2 rating over 15 outings with the Sharks this season.

Hyman scored the game-winning goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sharks.

Hyman tallied 1:06 into the extra session. This was his third straight game with a goal, and he earned his second game-winner of the campaign. The 33-year-old winger is up to 22 goals, 14 assists, 114 shots on net, 34 hits and a plus-13 rating through 36 appearances this season. Hyman continues to thrive on the top line and should have no trouble passing the 44-point effort he put up in 73 outings during the 2024-25 regular season.

McDavid scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sharks.

McDavid logged his third straight multi-point effort. He got the Oilers within a goal at 16:55 of the third period and then set up Zach Hyman for the game-winning tally in overtime. McDavid is up to 24 points over 14 outings in January, and he has a total of 34 goals, 60 assists, 205 shots, 23 hits and a plus-15 rating through 55 appearances this season.

Draisaitl scored a goal on two shots, added two assists, went plus-3 and logged three hits in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sharks.

Draisaitl got the Oilers on the board at 1:34 of the third period and also set up Connor McDavid and Evan Bouchard for goals later in the frame to erase a 3-0 deficit. With 10 points over his last three outings, Draisaitl is absolutely dominating in a top-six role. He's up to a total of 26 goals, 51 assists, 147 shots on net and a plus-14 rating through 52 appearances this season.

Dach had a goal and an assist in a 7-3 win against the Avalanche on Thursday.

The points were Dach's first since his return from injury Jan. 20, and his first since Nov. 8, 2025 (eight games). He has never lived up to his promise as the third overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. He's also never been healthy -- Dach has never played more than 70 games a season, and that was 2021-22. There's promise, but there are a lot of headaches, too.

Suzuki had two goals and an assist in a 7-3 victory over Colorado on Thursday.

One goal came on the power play; the other was scored while shorthanded. Suzuki got back on the scoresheet after being held pointless Tuesday against Vegas. He has 18 goals, 44 assists and 116 shots in 54 games this season, and he's now in a three-way tie with Martin Necas and Jason Robertson for 10th in NHL scoring. Suzuki is on pace to best his career mark in points, which he set last year (30 goals, 59 assists).
