  • Jets' Mark Scheifele: Draws assist Monday

    Scheifele logged an assist, three shots on goal, three hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

    Scheifele didn't take a faceoff Monday -- he's likely dealing with something that he can play through, but it's prevented him from being heavily involved at the dot over the last three games. The center is still contributing in other ways, and as long as he's scoring, fantasy managers won't have much to complain about. The 31-year-old has five points over his last four contests, and he's up to 12 goals, 14 assists, 50 shots on net, 23 hits, 20 blocked shots, 21 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 22 outings overall.

  • Adam Lowry C | WPG

    Jets' Adam Lowry: Fills empty cage

    Lowry scored an empty-net goal on four shots in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

    Lowry has three goals and an assist over the last six contests. His four shots Monday were a season high. The 31-year-old center is up to five tallies, 15 points, 30 shots, 37 hits, 18 blocked shots and a plus-16 rating through 22 appearances. While primarily functioning as a shutdown center, the Jets' offense has run deep enough for Lowry to set a career-best scoring pace just over a quarter of the way through the campaign.

  • Connor Zary C | CGY

    Flames' Connor Zary: Posts power-play assist

    Zary notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Senators.

    Zary has a goal and two power-play helpers during his three-game point streak. The 23-year-old has bounced between center and the wing this season, and he was playing down the middle Monday between Jonathan Huberdeau and Blake Coleman. Zary is up to 11 points (four on the power play), 47 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 22 contests, putting him on pace to surpass his 34-point rookie season if he stays healthy.

  • Nazem Kadri C | CGY

    Flames' Nazem Kadri: Logs helper in loss

    Kadri produced an assist in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Senators.

    Kadri has four helpers over his last five contests, but he's now gone eight games without a goal. The center has 24 shots on net during the goal drought, so this appears to just be some rough luck. The 34-year-old is up to 12 points, 66 shots, 20 PIM, 13 hits, 12 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating over 22 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Flames' Mikael Backlund: Late goal in loss

    Backlund scored a goal on five shots and went plus-2 in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Senators.

    Backlund ended a five-game point drought with a tally in the final minute of the third period. The 35-year-old center racked up 18 shots on net during that slump, so it hasn't been for a lack of trying. He's up to five goals, 10 points, 61 shots, 16 hits and a plus-6 rating over 22 appearances in a middle-six role this season. That's in line with Backlund's usual level of offense -- he can be penciled in for roughly 40 points a year.

  • Flames' Yegor Sharangovich: Scores in third straight game

    Sharangovich scored a goal on seven shots, blocked two shots and added four PIM in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Senators.

    This was Sharangovich's third game in a row with a goal, and he has a total of four points in that span. He's also logged seven shots in back-to-back contests. The 26-year-old got off to a slow start after missing time with a lower-body injury, but he's playing some spirited hockey now. He has five tallies, one assist, 49 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 15 appearances while filling an all-situations role this season.

  • Leo Carlsson C | ANA

    Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Injured Monday

    Carlsson won't return to Monday's game against the Kraken after sustaining an upper-body injury, according to Derek Lee of The Hockey News.

    Carlsson was checked by Seattle's Tye Kartye into Anaheim's net in the middle frame. Carlsson remained down for a few moments but was eventually able to skate off the ice on his own. The Ducks face the Kraken again on Wednesday, so an update on the 19-year-old's status should surface before then.

  • Flames' Jonathan Huberdeau: Tallies on power play

    Huberdeau scored a power-play goal and added two PIM in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Senators.

    The goal snapped a five-game drought for Huberdeau, who had just one assist in that span. The 31-year-old forward has earned five points over 12 contests in November, though he continues to play in a top-six role despite the struggles on offense. Overall, he has seven goals, five helpers, 35 shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 14 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 22 outings.

  • Ridly Greig C | OTT

    Senators' Ridly Greig: Provides two assists

    Greig notched two assists, two shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-3 win over the Flames.

    Greig has racked up five helpers over his last six outings, including two power-play assists, but he's now gone nine games without a goal. The 22-year-old continues to log middle-six minutes while featuring on the second power-play unit. He's up to seven points, 22 shots on net, 30 hits, eight PIM and a minus-6 rating through 18 appearances this season.

  • Senators' Adam Gaudette: Tallies in Monday's win

    Gaudette scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 4-3 win over the Flames.

    This was Gaudette's third goal over his last six games. That uptick in production has earned him a look on the top line at even strength, though he still had just 12:56 of ice time Monday, his most in a game since Nov. 7. The 28-year-old has played better than expected so far with nine goals, one helper, 28 shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-1 rating across 20 outings. He carries a little fantasy value in deeper formats that reward goals, though he's also shooting 32.1 percent, a mark that's destined to drop over time.
