Catton dished out two assists, went plus-2 and served four PIM in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

Catton has been a playmaking machine as of late as he's recorded seven assists and 10 points over his last eight appearances. He played a big role in Seattle's late comeback effort Saturday, recording a helper on the team's first and third goal in the third period. The 20-year-old forward is up to nine assists, 14 points, 26 shots on net, seven hits and seven blocked shots this season. He's emerging into one of the best young stashes in points-only keeper and dynasty leagues due to his increased role on the Kraken's second line. He's on pace to blow the numbers from his rookie campaign out of the water, which should make him a solid streaming option in standard leagues as well.

Pinto scored an empty-net goal and added an assist in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Mammoth.

Pinto assisted on Nick Cousins' game-winning goal with 2:18 left in regulation, then sealed the victory with an empty-netter 16 seconds before the final buzzer. Pinto continues to find ways to contribute almost on a per-game basis, and he's notched points in five of his last six games, tallying seven points (five goals, two assists) in that span. He's opened the season with 14 points (seven goals, seven assists) in his first 18 games.

Zibanejad registered two assists in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Kraken.

Zibanejad slid a pair of primary helpers Saturday, including one on the team's first goal just 95 seconds into the contest. His other apple was on Pavel Dorofeyev's game-winning goal. The 33-year-old Zibanejad has proven to still be one of the key engines that drives the Rangers' offense. Overall, he has 12 assists, 15 points, 33 shots on net, 27 hits and 15 blocked shots across 18 games this season. His solid category coverage makes him viable in a number of fantasy formats moving forward.

Point picked up two assists Saturday in a 4-3 overtime win over the Wild.

Point tied Hall-of-Fame winger Martin St. Louis (2018) as the third-fastest Lightning player to reach 700 career points. After a slow start this season, Point has taken off offensively with 13 points (four goals, nine assists) in his last 10 games, and he's on a seven-game, 10-point streak (four goals, six assists).

Joshua notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Canadiens.

Joshua was sidelined for the first month of the season due to a core muscle injury. This was his third contest, and he's filled a bottom-six role so far. He has produced five shots on net, 14 hits and a plus-1 rating. Joshua can help in banger leagues, assuming he stays healthy, but he doesn't offer a lot of offense.

Colton scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Blues.

Colton's second-period tally stood as the game-winner. The 30-year-old has started November on a heater with three goals and an assist over three contests this month. For the season, he's at five tallies, three assists, 25 shots on net, 39 hits, 14 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 17 appearances, which is solid production given his bottom-six assignment.

Guentzel had two goals and an assist in a 4-3 overtime win over Minnesota on Saturday. He fired seven shots.

One goal and the assist came on the power play. Guentzel has four points (two goals, two assists) in his last two games, and he has picked up at least one point in six of his last seven games (six goals, three assists; 26 shots). Overall, Guentzel has 18 points including 10 snipes, in 16 games this season and is on pace for his first 50-goal campaign. Of course, a possible trade of line mate Nikita Kucherov would almost certainly slow his pace, but Guentzel's production isn't simply tied to his star line mates.

Bennett scored a goal on four shots and added three shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals.

Bennett has two goals over three games in November. He's looking for more consistency after a relatively unimpressive October, aside from a hat trick versus the Kraken on Oct. 17. The physical center is at five goals, three assists, 43 shots on net, 35 hits, 13 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 17 appearances this season, mainly in a top-six role.

Sasson scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers.

Sasson has scored three times over his last seven games. The 26-year-old is up to five goals, two helpers, 19 shots on net, 11 hits, 13 blocked shots, 17 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 19 contests on the year. Sasson offers a little depth scoring in the Canucks' bottom six, but that usage makes it likely he'll be inconsistent on a game-to-game basis.

McDavid registered three assists (one on the power play) and three shots on goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Canucks.

McDavid has opened November with 10 points over four contests. The 29-year-old superstar just isn't slowing down on offense as he sets a blistering pace that will make it hard for anyone in the league to catch up to. He's on an 18-game point streak, earning 10 goals, 37 helpers (19 on the power play), 49 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-22 rating. McDavid isn't on a career-best goal pace, but he is more than making up for it with assists.
