McDavid recorded two assists and placed three shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Predators.

McDavid extended his point streak to 20 games. He is up to 52 assists, 82 points and 176 shots on net across 47 games this season. While it wasn't ever in much question, the superstar center secured a point-per-game for the season, assuming he plays all 82 games for the Oilers. During his point streak, he has 19 goals, 27 assists and 101 shots on net. He'll have a chance to extend his point streak to 21 games during Thursday's home contest against the Islanders.

Broz was reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Wednesday.

Broz didn't get into the lineup versus the Lightning on Tuesday, serving as a healthy scratch. The youngster will likely suit up for the Baby Pens in Wednesday's clash with AHL Providence, which would technically make him eligible to be called back up ahead of Pittsburgh's matchup with Philadelphia on Thursday.

Stamkos scored a goal, placed three shots on net and dished out two hits in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over Edmonton.

Stamkos put a tally on the scoreboard less than three minutes into regulation to secure his fifth consecutive season with 20 goals or more. Overall, the 35-year-old forward is up to 20 goals, 31 points, 110 shots on net, 45 hits and 20 blocks through 46 games this season. Since Dec. 11, Stamkos has amassed 12 goals and 20 points in 17 outings. He remains a relevant fantasy producer, especially when it comes to finding the back of the net, giving him value in nearly all standard fantasy formats moving forward.

Amadio notched an assist and three hits in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Canucks.

Amadio is still stuck in a 15-game goal drought, and he's picked up just three assists in that span. The 29-year-old is still seeing third-line minutes, but the lack of offense has taken him out of the mix for consideration in most fantasy formats. For the season, he's up to 17 points, 57 shots on net, 67 hits, 25 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 45 contests.

Jenner had a goal and an assist Tuesday in a 5-3 win over Calgary.

His goal stood as the winner. Jenner has eight goals and 15 assists in 32 games this season, and eight of those (three goals, five assists) in his last nine contests. Jenner is hurt far too often, but when healthy, he brings a real edge to the ice, and he can obviously score. He put up two hits Tuesday and has 73 hits in 32 games this season.

Coyle had two goals and an assist in a 5-3 win over the Flames on Tuesday.

The veteran pivot had a whopping seven shots Tuesday. Coyle has nine goals, 20 assists and 71 shots in 46 games this season. His best production came under very structured systems, and the arrival of Rick Bowness as head coach will instantly inject both structure and pace into the Blue Jackets. Coyle could thrive in that kind of system.

Jarnkrok scored a goal in Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Mammoth.

Jarnkrok had been scratched for the previous two games. He checked back into the lineup for Nicholas Robertson (lower body), who is day-to-day after getting hurt versus the Avalanche on Monday. The goal was Jarnkrok's second in his last six outings, and he's up to six tallies, 26 shots on net, 18 hits and a minus-7 rating through 28 appearances. The 34-year-old forward has mostly played in a bottom-six role when he gets into the lineup.

McBain scored a goal on seven shots, dished two assists, added two PIM, doled out three hits and went plus-4 in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

McBain hadn't logged a multi-point effort since Dec. 3 versus the Ducks. The 26-year-old set up both of Dylan Guenther's goals in the second period before scoring one of his own in the third. McBain is now at six goals, 68 shots on net, 159 hits, 33 blocked shots, 45 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 47 contests. If McBain and Guenther stick together alongside Michael Carcone, that trio could emerge as an energy line with scoring potential for the Mammoth.

Frost had a goal and an assist in a 5-3 loss to Columbus on Tuesday.

It was his first goal in 13 games (three assists). Frost has 22 points (nine goals, 13 assists) and 85 shots in 46 games this season. The third-line center could see an uptick in fantasy value if ongoing rumors of a Nazem Kadri trade ever happen. As it stands, there are a lot better options than Frost at such a deep position.

Backlund had a goal and an assist in a 5-3 loss to Columbus on Tuesday.

Backlund has three points (one goal, two assists) in his last two games. He has picked up the pace of late, delivering 13 points, including six goals, in his last 12 games. Backlund had 16 points (five goals, 11 assists) in his first 34 games this season. Funny enough, the perennial 30-something point pivot is on a 50-plus point pace for the third time in an 18-season career. There may be room for a guy like Backlund in some daily formats while he's this hot.
