Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Buries goal in win
Kyrou scored a goal in Friday's 4-3 win over the Senators.
Kyrou had been limited to just two assists during his six-game goal drought. The winger is still struggling to find consistency this season, which has turned him from a reliable fantasy scorer to a volatile option. He's at seven goals, 14 points, 62 shots on net and a minus-10 rating through 24 appearances, a pace that would make it tough for him to reach 50 points, let alone the 70-plus he's put up in three of the last four regular seasons.

Macklin Celebrini C | SJ
Sharks' Macklin Celebrini: Dishes pair of assists
Celebrini registered power-play two assists and four PIM in Friday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.
Celebrini's point streak ended at five games when the Sharks were shut out by the Avalanche on Wednesday. He bounced back with helpers on power-play goals by Will Smith and William Eklund in Friday's contest. Celebrini is up to 36 points (14 on the power play) while adding 71 shots on net, 16 PIM, 16 blocked shots, 14 hits and a plus-2 rating over 25 appearances. At this pace, the 19-year-old would exceed the 100-point mark in just his second NHL campaign, though sustaining his 19.7 shooting percentage will be tough.

Sean Couturier C | PHI
Flyers' Sean Couturier: Scores again Friday
Couturier scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders.
Couturier put the Flyers up 2-0 in the first period just 22 seconds after Tyson Foerster opened the scoring. Over the last five games, Couturier has two goals and three assists. The 32-year-old center is still finding ways to be productive in a middle-six role after getting bumped off the top line. He's at four goals, 15 points, 32 shots on net, 18 hits, 14 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 22 appearances. The Flyers' offense is a bit of a committee approach, so Couturier should still carve out a decent share of points throughout the year.

Evan Rodrigues C | NJ
Panthers' Evan Rodrigues: Nets goal Friday
Rodrigues scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Flames.
Rodrigues continues to chip in steady supporting offense. He's scored four goals and added one assist over his last eight games while playing in a middle-six role. For the season, the 32-year-old forward is at seven goals, 13 points, 54 shots on net, 26 hits and a plus-3 rating through 24 appearances, which includes a spot on the second power-play unit. He's on track to reach the 40-point mark for just the second time in his career.

Sam Bennett C | FLA
Panthers' Sam Bennett: Scores in loss
Bennett scored a goal on six shots and added two hits in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Flames.
Bennett has three goals and four assists over his last seven games. The 29-year-old's tally put the Panthers ahead 2-0 early in the first period, but their offense didn't hold up for the rest of the contest. Bennett's recent play has been an improvement, as he's at six goals, 12 points, 53 shots on net, 48 hits, 24 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 24 outings overall.

Brayden Point C | TB
Lightning's Brayden Point: Won't play Saturday
Point (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup against the Rangers on Saturday, per Lightning reporter Gabby Shirley.
Point will miss his fourth straight game, and it remains unclear when he will be ready to return. He has accounted for three goals, 11 points and 44 shots on net through 21 appearances this season. Due to Point's absence, Nick Paul will occupy a top-six role against the Rangers on Saturday.

Morgan Frost C | CGY
Flames' Morgan Frost: Pots power-play goal
Frost scored a power-play goal on two shots, blocked two shots and went minus-2 in Friday's 5-3 win over the Panthers.
Frost scored the go-ahead goal 55 seconds into the second period. The 26-year-old hasn't assembled a point streak in November, but he has three goals and three assists over his last seven outings. The goal Friday was also his first power-play point of the month. For the season, the center is at six goals, 14 points, 50 shots on net, 14 PIM, 16 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 26 appearances.

Alex Turcotte C | LA
Kings' Alex Turcotte: Gets goal after scratch
Turcotte scored a goal on three shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Friday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Ducks.
Turcotte was scratched Monday versus the Senators, and it may have sparked his play. The 24-year-old snapped his 11-game point drought upon his return to the lineup, and he earned 13:27 of ice time. The Kings have struggled to get much out of their centers this year, with Turcotte and Phillip Danault in particular struggling. Turcotte is at one goal, three assists, 19 shots on net, 13 PIM and a minus-3 rating while primarily playing on the fourth line through 23 appearances.

Zack Bolduc RW | MON
Canadiens' Zachary Bolduc: Two-point performance
Bolduc recorded a goal and an assist in Friday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Bolduc has been on a tear of late and has recorded back-to-back multi-point performances while also tallying six total points (two goals, four assists) over his last four games. That comes after a nine-game stretch in which he didn't record a single point, though. That lack of consistency makes Bolduc hard to trust in most formats, even if he owns a steady top-six role in Montreal's lineup.

Adam Gaudette RW | SJ
Sharks' Adam Gaudette: Pots game-winning goal Friday
Gaudette scored the game-winning goal in Friday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.
Gaudette was the hero for the Sharks on Friday, as he netted the game-winning goal at the 15:17 mark of the second period with a slick backhander. Gaudette has six goals on the season, and while he has a steady role as a top-six forward, he doesn't do enough in fantasy to be considered a worthwhile roster addition in most formats. He has seven points in 21 games on the season and has cracked the 25-point plateau just twice in his career.
