McLeod scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Wild.

The 26-year-old center got the Sabres on the board midway through the first period before having a hand in an Alex Tuch tally in the second. McLeod has been on a roll in January, producing four goals and nine points over the last seven games. With Josh Norris (ribs) banged up, McLeod should continue drawing shifts on the second line with Jack Quinn and Jason Zucker.

Bennett scored a goal, registered two assists, fired five shots on net, served two PIM and dished out two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.

Bennett's strong stretch of play continued Saturday as he recorded two primary assists to go with his game-tying goal midway through the second period. Following his trio of points, the 29-year-old center now has 17 goals, 21 assists, 122 shots on net, 94 hits and 21 blocks through 47 appearances this season. Since Jan. 8, he has three multi-point performances across five contests. His sluggish start to the season is miles behind him as Bennett has excelled on the second line over the past six weeks. He remains a solid option in all fantasy formats and has an added boost in leagues that value category coverage.

Granlund scored a goal on three shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Kings.

Granlund scored 4:02 into overtime, giving the Ducks the home-and-home sweep over the Kings this weekend. The 33-year-old has four points over his last five contests and is likely to see a significant boost in usage while Leo Carlsson (thigh) is out for 3-5 weeks. Granlund has nine goals, 20 points, 65 shots on net, 21 hits, 17 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating over 30 appearances. His goal Saturday was his first game-winner as a Duck.

McTavish scored a goal on four shots and added three hits in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Kings.

McTavish opened the scoring at 6:11 of the first period. He's up to 12 goals this season, including five over his last 13 games. The 22-year-old center is poised to handle a larger role while Leo Carlsson (thigh) is sidelined for 3-5 weeks. McTavish is up to 29 points, 99 shots on net, 53 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 48 appearances this season.

Domi scored the game winner on five shots and added an assist to secure a 4-3 overtime win over the Jets on Saturday.

Domi has been successful in spurts while riding shotgun with Auston Matthews on the top line. The 30-year-old Domi has three points, including two goals, in his last five contests and 10 points (three goals, seven assists) across his past 13 outings. He has six goals, 22 points and 74 shots on net through 46 appearances this season.

Matthews scored a goal and added an assist in a 4-3 overtime win over Winnipeg on Saturday.

Matthews has six points (three goals, three assists) in his past five games. He has amassed 17 points, including 10 goals, in 11 appearances since Christmas. Matthews has fired 47 shots in that span in a return to form for the 28-year-old sniper.

Beniers scored a goal and added an assist Saturday in a 6-3 loss to Utah.

Beniers has 10 goals and 21 assists in 47 games this season, but he has warmed up offensively. He ended a mini two-game point slump with his multi-point effort in Saturday's loss. Beniers has racked up six goals, seven assists and 29 shots on net over his last 14 outings.

Nugent-Hopkins logged two assists and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.

Nugent-Hopkins set up both of Kasperi Kapanen's tallies in the contest. The goal drought is up to 11 games for Nugent-Hopkins, but he still has eight helpers and 18 shots on net in that span. The playmaking forward is at 39 points (11 goals, 28 assists), 68 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through 40 appearances this season. He'll likely center the second line for the duration of Leon Draisaitl's (personal) absence.

Hyman scored a power-play goal on three shots in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.

Hyman has four goals and an assist over the last four contests. The winger remains a consistent source of goals and shots while playing on the Oilers' top line. He's up to 17 tallies, 28 points (11 on the power play), 90 shots on net, 32 hits and a plus-7 rating across 30 appearances this season.

Roslovic scored twice on four shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.

Roslovic ignited a six-goal second period at 3:11 of the frame, then added another goal at 14:31. Prior to Saturday, he was in a seven-game point drought. Roslovic has mostly played on the third line recently, though he should pick up a little more power-play time while Leon Draisaitl (personal) is away from the team. Roslovic is at 14 goals, 22 points, 80 shots on net and a minus-4 rating over 36 appearances. He has some upside on a strong team, but if he's not playing with a superstar, the 28-year-old's offense could run streaky.
