Hertl notched two assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blue Jackets.

It's Hertl's fourth multi-point performance in the last seven games, and the 31-year-old center has found his form just in time to help Vegas lock up a Pacific Division crown. Over nine contests since the 4 Nations Face-Off, he's collected six goals and 12 points, and Hertl sits three tallies away from the third 30-goal campaign of his career.

Pinto produced a goal and an assist in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.

He teamed up with linemate Ridly Greig for the first and last tallies in Ottawa's four-goal eruption in the first period. Pinto has caught fire in March despite his middle-six role and lack of regular power-play time, racking up five goals and six points in seven contests, and he sits four goals shy of his second career 20-goal campaign.

Greig scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.

Both points came in the first period, with Greig capping a four-goal eruption for the Senators when he pounced on the rebound of a Shane Pinto shot from the point. Greig has gotten onto the scoresheet just three times in the last 11 games, but the checking-line forward is creeping closer to career-best numbers with 11 goals and 23 points through 62 appearances on the season. His high-water mark in points is 26, which he set in 2023-24.

Kopitar notched a power-play assist in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Capitals.

Kopitar continued a resurgent March that has seen him get on the scoresheet in six of seven games. He has three goals and four helpers in that span. The 37-year-old center is up to 16 goals, 37 assists, 17 power-play points, 83 shots on net, 54 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 64 appearances. Kopitar isn't solely carrying the load on offense anymore, but he remains a huge part of the Kings' overall game plans.

Byfield scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Capitals.

Byfield stretched the Kings' lead to 3-0 just 47 seconds after a Kevin Fiala tally. The 22-year-old Byfield has a goal in five straight contests, including one shorthanded goal in that span. The center is getting things done in a third-line role, though anywhere in the Kings' top nine is good enough to be productive lately. For the season, he's at 16 goals, 39 points, 125 shots on net, 65 hits, 36 PIM and a plus-10 rating through 64 outings.

Teravainen provided an assist and fired two shots on goal in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks.

Teravainen helped out on an Ilya Mikheyev tally in the second period. While Teravainen has gone four games without a goal, he has two assists in that span and continues to make a decent impact on offense from a second-line role. The winger is up to 51 points, 97 shots on net and a minus-13 rating over 66 appearances, with his non-scoring production being fairly negligible for fantasy.

Donato provided an assist, six shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks.

Donato saw an eight-game point streak end when the Blackhawks were shut out Monday versus the Avalanche. He bounced right back by setting up an Ilya Mikheyev tally in the second period of Thursday's contest. The helper puts Donato a point shy of 50 for the season -- he has 23 goals, 26 helpers, 145 shots on net, 99 hits, 37 PIM and a minus-10 rating across 64 appearances. He continues to thrive on the second line with enough multi-category production to help most fantasy managers.

Nazar scored a goal on six shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks.

Nazar got the Blackhawks on the board just 10 seconds into the second period. The 21-year-old looked like one of the best players on the ice in this contest -- he clearly benefited from playing against a weaker opponent. He's scuffled to start March, potting two goals on just 12 shots over his first seven games of the month. For the season, the rookie forward has six goals, 10 assists, 58 shots on net, 12 PIM and a minus-7 rating across 37 appearances.

Goodrow had a fighting major and two hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Goodrow's point drought reached 12 games, but he had a fight for the second game in a row. He came to the defense of Macklin Celebrini, dropping the mitts with Jason Dickinson after the Chicago forward's cross-checking penalty in the second period. Goodrow is a good teammate and does a lot of the dirty work for a fairly young team. However, his fourth-line role has left him with just eight points and a minus-31 rating to go with 64 PIM, 62 shots on net, 130 hits and 47 blocked shots over 62 appearances this season in his second stint with the Sharks.

Wennberg provided an assist in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Wennberg is continuing to make an impact as a set-up man, earning eight assists over his last eight contests. He delivered a primary helper on the first of Collin Graf's two tallies in Thursday's win. For the season, Wennberg is up to 31 points, 64 shots on net, 58 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 62 appearances. He saw some limited minutes at times earlier in the campaign, but he's firmly in the top six following the Sharks' numerous trades leading up to last Friday's deadline.
