Blues' Dylan Holloway: Adds helper in win
Holloway recorded an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 4-3 win over the Ducks.
Holloway set up Brayden Schenn for a go-ahead goal in the second period. The 23-year-old Holloway remains consistent -- he has four goals and three assists over his last seven outings while playing in a second-line role. For the season, he's up to 20 goals, 27 helpers, 149 shots on net, 136 hits and a plus-12 rating through 64 appearances in his first year with the Blues.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Lends helper in Friday's win
Kyrou provided an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 4-3 win over the Ducks.
Kyrou has opened March with three helpers over four games, but he's gone five contests without a goal. The 26-year-old winger chipped in on the first of Brayden Schenn's two goals in this game. Kyrou is up to 50 points (24 goals, 26 assists), 180 shots on net, 40 hits and a plus-12 rating across 64 appearances in a top-six role this season.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Pots goal in Friday's win
Bolduc scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Friday's 4-3 win over the Ducks.
Bolduc gave the Blues a 3-1 lead in the third period with his fifth goal in six games. The 22-year-old forward is up to 11 tallies, 23 points, 78 shots on net, 74 hits and a plus-15 rating across 54 appearances this season. Bolduc's bottom-six role isn't encouraging for fantasy managers, but he could earn himself more ice time if he keeps scoring at a strong rate.

Brayden Schenn C | NYI
Blues' Brayden Schenn: Scores twice Friday
Schenn scored two goals and blocked two shots in Friday's 4-3 win over the Ducks.
Schenn gave the Blues a 2-1 lead midway through the second period and added an empty-netter in the third. That second tally proved necessary, as the Ducks scored late in the third period and nearly tied things up before time expired -- his empty-netter was ultimately the game-winner. Schenn is hot right now with three goals and five assists over his last seven contests. The 33-year-old has 14 goals, 40 points, 114 shots on net, 158 hits, 40 blocked shots, 50 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 64 appearances. He'll get a chance to finish his eighth campaign with the Blues after he ultimately wasn't traded despite surfacing in rumors in recent weeks. He'll be a key part of their offense as they try to stay in what looks like a four-team race for the last playoff spot in the Western Conference.

Marco Rossi C | VAN
Wild's Marco Rossi: Slings assist on power play
Rossi managed a power-play assist, four shots on goal and two hits in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Canucks.
While Rossi was dropped to the third line at even strength, he remains on the Wild's top power-play unit. It was there that he set up Brock Faber for a third-period tally Friday. The helper was Rossi's first point over three outings in March, which likely prompted the lineup shuffle that saw Ryan Hartman take on a larger even-strength role. For the season, Rossi remains one of the Wild's top forwards with 52 points (13 on the power play), 107 shots on net and a plus-13 rating across 63 appearances.

Pius Suter C | STL
Canucks' Pius Suter: Sets up empty-netter
Suter logged an assist and three hits in Friday's 3-1 win over the Wild.
Suter, a pending unrestricted free agent, was not dealt by the Canucks prior to Friday's deadline. He remains in a third-line role for now, though he often sees more ice time than that placement in the lineup would suggest. He's earned four points over seven contests since the 4 Nations Face-Off break and is now up to 29 points over 61 appearances, matching his scoring output from 67 regular-season outings a year ago. He's a decent depth scorer who can help in deep fantasy formats with his offense.

Teddy Blueger C | VAN
Canucks' Teddy Blueger: Deposits empty-netter
Blueger scored an empty-net goal on two shots and added a plus-2 rating in Friday's 3-1 win over the Wild.
Blueger failed to record a point in January and February, but he's now scored in consecutive contests. He provided some insurance with an empty-netter Friday. The Canucks' lack of deadline-day moves, especially at center, will keep Blueger locked into a fourth-line role for now. He's at seven tallies, 19 points, 69 shots on net, 80 hits and a minus-6 rating through 62 appearances this season.

Elias Pettersson C | VAN
Canucks' Elias Pettersson: Finds twine on power play
Pettersson scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Friday's 3-1 win over the Wild.
Pettersson opened the scoring at 16:14 of the first period. He snapped a 15-game goal drought in the process, and during that span, he was limited to five assists and 21 shots on net. The 26-year-old center is up to 12 goals, 36 points, 100 shots on net, 65 blocked shots, 58 hits and a minus-8 rating through 56 appearances. Pettersson is just two years removed from a 39-goal, 102-point campaign, but 2024-25 will go down as a forgettable year on his ledger, one the Canucks will hope he can bounce back from quickly.

Golden Knights' Tomas Hertl: Picks up helper in win
Hertl notched an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 4-0 win over the Penguins.
Hertl set up a Brandon Saad tally early in the third period. Over the last seven games, Hertl has racked up four goals and four assists, providing steady offense from a second-line role for the Golden Knights. He's now at 49 points, 150 shots on net, 88 hits, 49 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 62 outings overall.

Jack Eichel C | LV
Golden Knights' Jack Eichel: Sets career high in assists
Eichel notched an assist and went plus-2 in Friday's 4-0 win over the Penguins.
Eichel has a goal and five assists during his four-game point streak. His helper Friday was his 55th of the season, which is his new career high in the category. The 28-year-old center is up to 75 points (27 on the power play), 190 shots on net, 43 blocked shots and a plus-30 rating over 61 appearances. He's got plenty of time to set a career high in points -- he's just seven shy of matching the 82 he had in 2018-19 with the Sabres.
