Suzuki dished out two assists, put three shots on net and recorded two hits in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over Ottawa.

Both of Suzuki's helpers Saturday came on power plays in the first period, and his 27 power-play points are tied for third in the league. The 26-year-old center is up to 39 assists, 54 points, 106 shots on goal, 37 hits and 40 blocks through 49 games this season, ranking 20th in blocks among forwards. Suzuki is well above the necessary pace to record his third consecutive season with more than 75 points, making him a staple for fantasy lineups in any league format.

Sharangovich scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Islanders.

Sharangovich stayed hot, earning his second goal and fifth point over the last three games. He tallied the opening goal at 11:51 of the first period. The 27-year-old forward now has 10 goals, 19 points, 81 shots on net and a minus-13 rating across 44 appearances. He should remain productive as long as he's able to hold onto a top-six role.

Miller notched two assists, two shots on goal, three hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

This was Miller's second two-assist effort in a row. He has a goal and five helpers over five games since he returned from an upper-body injury. The 32-year-old forward is now at 28 points (11 goals, 17 helpers), 88 shots on net, 84 hits and a minus-16 rating over 40 appearances in a top-six role this season.

Trocheck registered two assists, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

Trocheck hasn't scored in four games, picking up three assists with a minus-8 rating in that span. The 32-year-old is still firmly in a top-six role, where he's been plenty productive when healthy this season. He's up to 29 points (eight on the power play) with 61 shots on net, 115 hits, 29 blocked shots, 24 PIM and a minus-16 rating over 35 appearances.

Krebs scored a goal, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Wild.

Krebs has been back in the bottom six for the last three games. He ended an eight-game goal drought Saturday, but the reduced ice time will make it tough for him to continue producing on offense. He's at four goals, 17 points, 53 shots on net, 110 hits, 29 blocked shots and 46 PIM across 47 appearances.

Norris (ribs) is week-to-week, according to Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News on Sunday.

Norris has missed the last two games, and there is no timeline for his return to the lineup. It's unclear if he will be available to play before February's Olympic break. Norris has collected six goals, 17 points, 27 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and six hits while being limited to only 19 appearances this season.

Crosby picked up a goal and an assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.

The future Hall of Famer continues to fill up the scoresheet in January. Crosby has six multi-point performances through the first nine games this month, collecting five goals and 13 points over that stretch, and he ranks just outside the NHL's top 10 scorers with 53 points (26 goals, 27 assists) in 47 contests on the season.

Aston-Reese scored his first goal of the season in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Penguins.

The veteran grinder opened the scoring early in the first period, taking advantage of a lucky bounce to slide home the puck from the slot after Zach Werenski's point shot was blocked. Aston-Reese had been a healthy scratch the prior four games, but with new coach Rick Bowness wanting to take a full look at his roster, the winger could get some consistent run on the fourth line. On the season, Aston-Reese has five points, 68 hits, 16 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-1 rating in 25 games.

Reinhart distributed two assists and put four shots on net in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.

Reinhart played a hand in consecutive goals for the Panthers, including Uvis Balinskis' game-winning tally on a second-period power play. Reinhart is up to 23 assists, 47 points, 127 shots on net, 46 hits and 28 blocks through 47 games this season. The pair of points bring the 30-year-old winger back up to a point-per-game pace for a third consecutive regular season.

Verhaeghe tallied a goal, distributed an assist and placed three shots on net in Saturday's 5-2 win over Washington.

Verhaeghe scored an empty-netter with 46 seconds left in the third period after recording a primary helper on Sam Bennett's goal in the second period. Verhaeghe now has 14 goals, 22 assists, 103 shots on net and 46 hits through 46 outings this season. While he went cold near the end of the 2025 calendar year, he has eight points across his last six games, which includes three multi-point performances over the last four contests. He's on track to finish close to his 2024-25 regular-season output of 53 points in 81 games.
