  • Logan Cooley C | UTA

    Mammoth's Logan Cooley: Scores twice, including game-winner

    Cooley scored two goals in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blue Jackets. He also recorded five shots on goal, one hit, two blocked shots and a plus-1 rating.

    Cooley gave Utah a 4-2 lead early in the third period, and after the Blue Jackets stormed back to even things up, Cooley came through to pot the winner in overtime. Cooley has cracked the scoresheet in four of Utah's six games since the Olympic break, tallying five points (three goals, two helpers), a plus-3 rating, 11 shots, four hits and five blocked shots in that span.

  • Mammoth's Alex Kerfoot: Ends point drought Saturday

    Kerfoot recorded a goal, an assist, five PIM and three blocked shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.

    Kerfoot missed Utah's last 12 games before the break due to injury but returned to the ice Feb. 25. Saturday marked his first time cracking the scoresheet since Dec. 21, when he scored a goal in a win over the Jets. His fourth-line role and overall lack of productivity make Kerfoot a player not worth targeting in most formats.

  • Jack Hughes C | NJ

    Devils' Jack Hughes: Hat trick against Blueshirts

    Hughes scored three goals, one on the power play, and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rangers.

    Hughes struck for the first time with the scored tied 2-2 late in the second period, then added three more points in the third. The goals were his first in the NHL since Jan. 25, but the Olympic gold medalist has been looking good since returning from Milan, racking up nine points in six games. On the season, Hughes has 15 goals and 45 points in 42 contests.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Deposits power-play goal

    Vilardi scored a power-play goal and placed two shots on net in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canucks.

    Vilardi delivered the game-tying goal with less than five minutes remaining in regulation. With the power-play twine finder, he is up to 24 goals, 53 points and 119 shots on net over 62 games this season. Since Jan. 27, he has five goals and nine points in 11 games. He's poised to set a new career high in points this season and has a chance to surpass the 65-point mark for the first time in his six-year career.

  • Jets' Mark Scheifele: Records trio of points

    Scheifele tallied a goal, supplied two assists, fired six shots on net and blocked two shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over Vancouver.

    Scheifele played a hand in all three goals scored by the Jets, including Josh Morrissey's game-winning goal in overtime. With the three-point game, Scheifele now has 30 goals, 48 assists, 136 shots on net and 34 blocked shots across 62 games this season. He's on pace to shatter his career high in points and has a real chance to post a 100-point regular season for the first time in his 13-year NHL career.

  • Canucks' Teddy Blueger: Add two helpers Saturday

    Blueger dished out two assists and put two shots on net in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Winnipeg.

    Blueger continued his success when healthy this season with his second multi-point game of the campaign. Since Jan. 23, the 31-year-old center has 10 points across 13 games. Overall, he has 11 points and 34 hits across 16 outings this season. Blueger offers a solid floor in deeper fantasy leagues. Barring another injury, he is still on track to reach the 20-point threshold despite missing the majority of the season.

  • Canucks' Linus Karlsson: Nets opening goal

    Karlsson tallied a goal and recorded an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Winnipeg.

    Karlsson placed the Canucks on the board just under seven and a half minutes into the opening period. He later picked up the secondary helper on Liam Ohgren's goal in the third period to secure Karlsson's third multi-point game of the campaign. Overall, Karlsson is up to 12 goals, 16 assists, 90 shots on net and 71 hits over 60 games this season. With the Canucks undergoing some roster turnover at the trade deadline, Karlsson might have an opportunity to carve out a middle-six role during the remainder of the regular season.

  • Tommy Novak C | PIT

    Penguins' Thomas Novak: Pots power-play goal Saturday

    Novak scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers.

    Novak had been limited to one assist over his previous four outings. The Penguins are thin up front right now with Sidney Crosby (lower body) hurt and Evgeni Malkin (suspension) sidelined, so Novak has an opportunity to take on a larger role despite the weakened supporting cast. The 28-year-old Novak has done a fine job so far with 13 goals, 34 points (seven on the power play), 95 shots on net and a plus-1 rating over 62 appearances this season.

  • Bruins' Elias Lindholm: Deposits empty-netter

    Lindholm scored an empty-net goal on four shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Capitals.

    This was Lindholm's first goal since Jan. 26 versus the Rangers. He's earned three points over five NHL contests since he returned from an upper-body injury. The veteran center reached the 40-point mark Saturday (12 goals, 28 assists), and he's added 79 shots on net, 44 blocked shots, 34 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 49 appearances.

  • Sharks' Macklin Celebrini: Scores lone goal in overtime loss

    Celebrini scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Islanders.

    Celebrini has four goals and four assists during his five-game point streak. He's scored in each of the last three contests. The 19-year-old is knocking on the door of a 90-point campaign -- he has 32 tallies, 57 assists, 216 shots on net, 39 blocked shots, 34 hits, 34 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 61 appearances.
