  • Jack Drury C | COL

    Avalanche's Jack Drury: Finds twine Monday

    Drury scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Monday's 5-2 win over the Kings.

    Drury snapped a five-game point drought with the tally. The 25-year-old center continues to occupy a bottom-six role, which doesn't provide consistent chances for him to contribute on offense. He's up to six goals, 12 points, 43 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 38 appearances this season. Drury's defense and faceoff skills make him more valuable on the ice than in fantasy.

  • Martin Necas C | COL

    Avalanche's Martin Necas: Tickles twine in win

    Necas scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Monday's 5-2 win over the Kings.

    Necas was a big playmaker early in December, but he's gotten a bit more selfish lately. He's potted five goals on 17 shots over his last five contests. Either as a finisher or a provider, Necas remains an elite source of offense. He has 19 goals, 50 points, 87 shots on net, 37 hits, 22 PIM and a plus-38 rating through 38 outings this season.

  • Boone Jenner C | CLB

    Blue Jackets' Boone Jenner: Opens scoring in win

    Jenner scored a goal on two shots, added three hits and went plus-2 in Monday's 4-1 win over the Senators.

    Jenner was on the third line for this contest, but he continues to see time in all situations. The 32-year-old has three goals and three assists over eight games since he returned from an upper-body injury. The veteran forward is up to 16 points, 54 shots on net, 53 hits, 26 blocked shots, 15 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 24 outings this season, offering decent all-around appeal in fantasy.

  • Sam Carrick C | BUF

    Rangers' Sam Carrick: Breaks lengthy drought

    Carrick posted an assist in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.

    Carrick played after being a game-time decision due to an illness Monday. With the helper, he snapped an 18-game point drought. The fourth-line center doesn't get many chances to influence play on offense, but he's part of the Rangers' penalty-killing group. He's earned seven points (one shorthanded), 44 shots on net, 56 hits, 28 PIM and 21 blocked shots through 41 appearances this season.

  • Rangers' Jonny Brodzinski: Deposits goal Monday

    Brodzinski scored a goal and added two PIM in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.

    Brodzinski has two goals and two assists over his last four games since he spent three contests in the press box as a healthy scratch. The 32-year-old is still in a bottom-six role, so this burst of offense is likely to fizzle out at some point. He's earned nine points, 32 shots on net and a plus-4 rating across 26 appearances this season.

  • Connor Dewar C | PIT

    Penguins' Connor Dewar: Available Tuesday

    Dewar (undisclosed) will be an option for Tuesday's home matchup against Carolina, according to Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports.

    Dewar departed Monday's practice early due to an injury, but he's seemingly no worse for wear ahead of Tuesday's contest. The Manitoba native has contributed six goals, 12 points, 69 hits and 55 shots on net over 37 appearances in 2025-26.

  • Avalanche's Nathan MacKinnon: Scores 32nd goal of season

    MacKinnon scored an empty-net goal and added an assist in Monday's 5-2 win over the Kings.

    MacKinnon has seven multi-point performances over his last 10 games, and the star playmaker continues to make a huge impact every time he steps on the ice. His 32 goals lead the league by some distance, as the second-best scorers are Matt Boldy and Morgan Geekie with 25 goals each, and he ranks second in total points with 66, only three behind Connor McDavid. By now, it's an oddity when MacKinnon doesn't record a multi-point effort -- he has 22 of them this season compared to just six outings in which he was held off the scoresheet.

  • Brock Nelson C | COL

    Avalanche's Brock Nelson: Posts two points Monday

    Nelson recorded a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-2 win over the Kings.

    Nelson gave the Avalanche a 3-1 lead with his goal in the second period, his 15th of the campaign, and he later assisted on Cale Makar's tally to close out the scoring. Nelson doesn't get the same attention as other Colorado players do, but he's been productive of late and has racked up 10 points (six goals, four assists) over his last 10 appearances.

  • Maple Leafs' Jacob Quillan: Called up Tuesday

    Quillan was recalled from AHL Toronto on Tuesday.

    The Maple Leafs are dealing with a few injuries up front, which necessitated Quillan being brought up from the minor-league affiliate. Quillan centered the fourth line between Steven Lorentz and Calle Jarnkrok during the morning skate ahead of Tuesday's game against the Devils. Quillan has produced five goals, 23 points and a plus-7 rating over 26 appearances with the Marlies in 2025-26.

  • Maple Leafs' Dakota Joshua: Dealing with UBI

    Joshua will not suit up against New Jersey on Tuesday due to an upper-body injury.

    Jacob Quillan was recalled from AHL Toronto because of the injuries the Maple Leafs are dealing with up front, which now include Joshua. Joshua's next chance to suit up will be against the Jets on Thursday. He has six goals, 10 points, 127 hits and a minus-2 rating across 36 appearances this season.
