Veleno scored a goal in Sunday's 5-2 loss to Utah.

Veleno has four points over his last four games. The 25-year-old is seeing a larger role on the third line while Colton Dach (elbow) is injured and Jason Dickinson (wrist) is out for the season. Veleno is up to 14 points, 60 shots on net, 119 hits, 38 blocked shots and a minus-19 rating over 66 appearances. He's still not a strong option for most fantasy managers given his bottom-six deployment on a weak team.

Strome recorded two assists, four shots on goal and a minus-3 in Sunday's 8-5 loss to the Sabres.

This wasn't a pretty game for the Capitals, but it was Strome's second multi-point effort in March. The center ended the month with five goals, six assists and a minus-7 rating over 14 games. For the season, he's earned his first 70-point season (23 goals, 47 assists) while adding 128 shots on net, 50 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 73 appearances.

Verhaeghe notched an assist and five shots on goal in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Canadiens.

Verhaeghe's offense has gone a bit cold again in March. He's in a nine-game goal drought and has just two assists with 28 shots on net and a minus-8 rating in that span. He's still part of the Panthers' top six, but he's had a disappointing 2024-25 with 17 goals, 47 points, 224 shots on net, 85 hits, 38 PIM and a minus-20 rating over 73 appearances.

Anderson-Dolan was recalled from AHL Manitoba on Monday.

Anderson-Dolan spent the last month in the minors, but he'll join the Jets ahead of Tuesday's game in Los Angeles. He hasn't yet appeared in an NHL game this season, but he'll provide additional depth while Rasmus Kupari (concussion) and Gabriel Vilardi (upper body) are sidelined.

Donato scored a goal in Sunday's 5-2 loss to Utah.

Donato kept his impressive streak alive with another goal after notching a hat trick in the 5-3 loss to the Golden Knights on Friday. He's on a four-game point streak, tallying six goals and two assists over that span, and the 28-year-old remains one of the top contributors for a rebuilding Chicago team that's still a few years away from competing. Despite the team's woes, Donato has posted career-best numbers in 2024-25 with 59 points (29 goals, 30 assists) across 72 games.

Kerfoot delivered one goal, two assists, three shots on goal, one blocked shot and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Kerfoot notched his 11th goal of the season in the final stages of the second period, which would end up being the game-winning goal. He also set up two of the team's other four goals, including the first goal of the season for Nick DeSimone. Kerfoot has struggled with consistency, however, and after failing to crack the scoresheet in seven of his last nine appearances, it's hard to trust him in most fantasy formats -- especially considering his bottom-six role in the lineup.

Cooley scored a goal and took two shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Cooley went pointless in his previous two appearances, but he made his presence felt in this win by notching the final goal of the contest at the 12:54 mark of the third period. Cooley has been playing well in recent games and has cracked the scoresheet in six of his last eight appearances for Utah, notching eight points (five goals, three assists), 19 shots and 12 hits over that span.

Perfetti scored a goal and recorded three hits in Sunday's 3-1 win over Vancouver.

Perfetti found the back of the net after not doing so for three straight contests, and the left winger continues to find ways to impact the game of late. He's cracked the scoresheet in six of his last 10 appearances, tallying three goals, five assists (two on the power play), 18 shots, 10 hits and two blocked shots over that span.

Appleton scored a goal, took three shots and posted a plus-1 rating in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Canucks.

Appleton scored the game-winning goal with a wrister in the early stages of the second period, giving him two goals across his last three appearances. With this goal, Appleton has reached double-digit goals in back-to-back seasons for the first time in his career, though with 21 points across 63 contests, he's not much of a reliable fantasy contributor in most formats.

Suter scored a goal in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Jets.

Suter accounted for all the offense the Canucks could muster in this loss, and the Canucks are ending the regular season on a sour note after losing four of their last six games. Suter has been productive recently, however, recording eight points in that period (two goals, six assists) during a four-game point streak.
