Dickinson (shoulder) will play Sunday against the Avalanche, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.

Dickinson's lengthy absence will halt at 10 games as the forward will be activated off injured reserve. The shoulder has been a continuing issue for the 30-year-old this season, but the hope is that it's behind him now. He'll rejoin the Blackhawks' lineup with one goal and two assists to his name in his eight appearances on the season.

Lundell scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Oilers.

The 24-year-old got Florida on the board early in the first first period to tie the game at 1-1, but things quickly got away from the home side after that. Lundell continues to provide steady production as the Panthers' No. 1 center, and through 10 games in November he's racked up three goals and 10 points, including three helpers on the power play.

Roslovic scored two goals in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Panthers.

Both tallies came in the first period as the Oilers jumped out to an early 3-1 lead they wouldn't relinquish. Roslovic is rolling in November. Over 12 games this month, he's racked up eight goals and 13 points as part of Edmonton's top six and top power-play unit.

Frank scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Lightning.

That's five points over the last two games for Frank, who seems to be enjoying the Capitals' uptick in scoring. While he's still firmly in a bottom-six role, he should be able to chip in some depth offense. The 27-year-old winger has two goals, six assists, 17 shots on net, eight blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-5 rating over 11 appearances.

Gaudreau notched an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Penguins.

Gaudreau was able to get a little revenge on a former team, setting up Brandon Montour's game-winning tally in overtime. This was Gaudreau's first point in four games since he returned from an upper-body injury that cost him 13 contests. The center has two assists, seven shots on net, six blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over eight appearances this season. He probably won't be a big factor in fantasy while playing in a bottom-six role.

Zary's point drought reached 11 games in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Stars.

That stretch also includes a two-game stint as a healthy scratch, but that came as the calendar flipped from October to November. Zary's offense wasn't sparked by that, and he's been stuck in a bottom-six role while trying to get going. On the season, he has just two points with 28 shots on net, 14 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 21 appearances. He's in the first season of a three-year contract, but the 24-year-old needs to show a lot more on offense to be part of the Flames' long-term plans.

Kadri logged two power-play assists and fired three shots on net in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Stars.

Kadri had a hand in goals by Matthew Coronato and Joel Farabee in this contest. In the shootout, Kadri tallied in the fourth round with the goal that gave the Flames the win. The 35-year-old center has five helpers over his last three outings following a five-game skid. He's up to 16 points (seven on the power play), 75 shots on net, 17 hits, eight PIM and a minus-13 rating through 23 contests overall.

Eichel logged two assists, two shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Ducks.

Eichel set up Shea Theodore's opening goal and Tomas Hertl's power-play tally in the first period. With back-to-back multi-point efforts, Eichel looks to be heating up again as he builds chemistry with Braeden Bowman on the top line. Eichel has 10 goals, 19 assists (12 on the power play), 86 shots on net and a plus-7 rating over 21 appearances. Eichel has 30-goal potential when healthy, but he's also excelled in a playmaking role and that looks to be continuing this year after his career-high 66 helpers in the 2024-25 regular season.

Hertl scored a power-play goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Ducks.

Hertl saw a five-game point streak end Thursday versus the Mammoth, but he bounced right back Saturday. The 32-year-old's goal late in the first period put the Golden Knights ahead 3-2. Hertl continues to impress in a second-line role, which has seen him produce nine goals, 18 points (seven on the power play), 62 shots on net, 24 hits and a plus-2 rating over 21 appearances.

Cirelli scored a goal in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Capitals.

Cirelli closed out the scoring for the Lightning with a backhander at 15:51 of the final frame. It was his eighth goal of the season, but it might be the spark he needs to turn things around. Cirelli missed four games from Nov. 8-16 due to an upper-body injury, and he still has only three points (two goals, one assist) in six games in November. That's poor production for a top-six forward, let alone one that notched a career-high 59 points across 80 regular-season appearances in 2024-25.
