Monahan recorded three assists, including two on the power play, in Thursday's 6-5 shootout win over the Red Wings.

Monahan was coming off a two-goal performance in the 5-3 win over the Devils on Monday, and he took it one step further in this win -- this three-point haul was a season-high mark for him. Monahan is riding a three-game point streak with six points over that stretch, and the 31-year-old should remain a key contributor for the Blue Jackets. His hot streak of late has raised his numbers to 16 points in 27 contests.

Steeves recorded a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blues. He also added two shots on goal, six hits and a plus-2 rating.

Steeves was coming off a two-goal performance in the 5-4 loss to the Red Wings on Tuesday, and he continues a hot streak that has seen him deliver multiple points in three of his last five games. Over that stretch, the 25-year-old winger has five markers, an assist, 10 shots on goal, 23 hits and a plus-3 rating.

Zacha scored two goals, including one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

Zacha found the back of the net twice in the second period, tallying at the 12:26 and 19:59 mark of the frame. Zacha is up to seven goals this season. This was the first time he's found the back of the net since doing so in a Nov. 11 win over the Maple Leafs. Zacha has scored three of his last five goals during power-play situations.

Geekie had a goal and two assists, including one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

Geekie has been on a tear lately, as this was his third straight game with multiple points, and he's cracked the scoresheet in all but one of his last eight appearances. Over that stretch, the 27-year-old winger has tallied 13 points (nine goals, four assists), 25 shots, 21 hits and a plus-4 rating.

Lindholm recorded three assists, including one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

Lindholm hasn't scored a goal since returning from a 10-game absence due to a lower-body injury, but he's been outstanding as a playmaker on the first line. He has seven assists over his last four games, a span in which he's also racked up six shots on goal, three blocked shots, four PIM and a plus-3 rating.

Suter scored a goal and took five shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Bruins.

Suter found the back of the net in his return to action following a two-game absence due to a lower-body injury. However, he hasn't been a reliable scoring weapon for St. Louis this season. He has only seven goals, and 13 total points, through 26 games.

Novak logged a pair of assists, including one on the power play, and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Lightning.

Novak has five points over his last four games. The 28-year-old saw just 11:21 of ice time Thursday, but he made the most of it, helping out on goals by Ville Koivunen and Evgeni Malkin. Novak has 12 points (four on the power play), 33 shots on net and a minus-1 rating over 26 outings. He's showed 40-point potential in the past, and while he may not play at that level for all of 2025-26, he could help fantasy managers in deep formats.

Kindel scored a power-play goal on five shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Lightning.

Kindel stretched the Penguins' lead to 3-0 midway through the second period. He's scored twice over his last three games while continuing to play in a middle-six role. The 18-year-old center is up to seven goals, 10 points, 49 shots on net, 25 blocked shots, 10 hits and a minus-8 rating through 23 appearances. He may sit out occasionally as part of his development plan, but Kindel's quickly established himself as part of the Penguins' system thanks to his willingness to do defensive work.

Nazar logged two two assists, including one on the power play, and added two shots on net, two hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

Nazar helped out on Connor Bedard's opening goal and set up Wyatt Kaiser's tally -- the eventual game-winner -- late in the second period. With five helpers over his last four games, Nazar has found his playmaking touch amid a goal drought that reached 15 contests Thursday. On the year, the 21-year-old center is at five goals, 15 helpers, 53 shots on net, 23 blocks, 18 hits, 14 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 25 appearances. Nazar's been productive enough overall to be rostered in most fantasy formats.

Bedard scored a power-play goal on four shots and added four PIM in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

Bedard has scored in four of the last five games, earning five goals and three assists in that span. This was his first power-play tally since Nov. 12 versus the Devils. The 20-year-old superstar is up to 18 goals, 39 points (12 on the power play), 95 shots on net, 28 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 27 appearances in his breakout year.
