Carlsson provided two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Canucks.

Carlsson helped out on a Mikael Granlund tally in the second period and Troy Terry's empty-netter late in the third. This was Carlsson's second two-assist effort in a row, giving him three goals and five helpers over his last five contests. The Swedish center is up to the 60-point mark for the first time in his three-year career, and he's added 153 shots on net, 31 PIM, 20 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating across 59 appearances.

McTavish scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Canucks.

McTavish had gone 14 games without a goal prior to Tuesday. He was scratched twice in that span and also missed five games in January due to an upper-body injury. The 23-year-old center's inconsistency on offense lately makes him risky for fantasy, especially since head coach Joel Quenneville has had McTavish buried on the fourth line. For the season, McTavish is at 14 goals, 34 points, 124 shots on net, 77 hits, 31 blocked shots and 40 PIM over 64 appearances.

Granlund scored two goals, including one on the power play, in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Canucks.

Granlund has shaken off the rust following his upper-body injury coming out of the Olympics. He's scored four goals over the last three games, which has been enough to help him reclaim a top-six job. The 34-year-old is up to 16 goals, 31 points (seven on the power play), 93 shots on net and a minus-10 rating over 47 appearances. If he can keep the offense rolling, Granlund should be on the radar for fantasy managers late in the season.

Kerfoot scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers.

Kerfoot had gone eight games without a goal, though he had three assists in that span. The 31-year-old forward is playing in the bottom six, which makes it tough for him to be a regular contributor on offense. For the season, he's earned seven points, 19 shots on net, 21 hits, 18 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 24 appearances.

Rakell scored a goal Tuesday in a 6-2 loss to Colorado.

It was his 15th of the season. Rakell had his eight-game, 10-point scoring streak snapped Sunday, so it's great that he's back on the score sheet. The Pens dropped to third in the Metropolitan Division with the loss, and they're just one point ahead of the Islanders, who are fourth. Rakell is one of the scoring leaders on the team, and he'll need to keep this pace up over the stretch to help secure the playoff spot.

Savoie scored a shorthanded goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Mammoth.

Savoie has earned two goals and two assists over his last six games. The 22-year-old is playing in a top-line role and sees ice time in all situations, making him an ideal pick-up for the fantasy playoffs. He's up to 12 goals, 29 points, 108 shots on net, 34 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 72 outings this season, including five power-play points and two shorthanded goals.

Roslovic scored a pair of goals on four shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Mammoth.

Roslovic got the Oilers on the board in the first period and put them up 4-2 in the second with his second tally. The 29-year-old had been limited to three points over his first 10 games in March before this breakout performance. He's now at 19 goals, 31 points, 123 shots on net, 32 hits and a minus-8 rating over 59 appearances. Roslovic matched his career high with 22 goals in 81 regular-season outings for the Hurricanes last year, and he could push to match that number if he finishes strong in 2025-26.

McDavid scored twice on four shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Mammoth.

McDavid's first goal was the 400th of his career, and his second, the empty-netter to seal the win, was his 1,200th regular-season point. This was just his 784th regular-season contest, making him the third-fastest player to reach 1,200 points behind Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux. March has been good to McDavid, who has five goals and 10 helpers over 11 contests this month. He's at 40 tallies -- a mark he's reached in five of his 11 seasons -- with 78 assists, 261 shots on net, 36 hits, 34 PIM and a plus-10 rating through 72 appearances.

MacKinnon scored a goal Tuesday in a 6-2 win over the Penguins.

It was his league-leading 46th goal of the season. It was MacKinnon's 300th career even-strength goal, which is the second-most in Avalanche/Quebec Nordiques franchise history behind Joe Sakic (388). The goal gets MacKinnon back on the scoresheet after his five-game, 10-point scoring streak was snapped Sunday.

Necas scored twice in a 6-2 win over Pittsburgh on Tuesday.

His first goal stood as the winner; it came on the power play. Necas has seven points (three goals, four assists) and nine shots on his current three-game point streak. He continues to blast toward his first triple-digit point season. Necas has already obliterated his previous best (71 points) with 88 (34 goals, 54 assists) in 67 games. He sits sixth in the NHL in scoring, ahead of David Pastrnak (87).
