Zibanejad notched two assists, including one on the power play, and added three shots on net, two blocked shots and two PIM in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Canucks.

Zibanejad is up to three multi-point efforts over seven games this season. While his finishing touch has been a little lacking, he's still playing a key role on the Rangers' top line and first power-play unit. The veteran center has a goal, six assists, 14 shots on net, 13 hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-3 rating.

Miller recorded two assists and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Canucks.

Miller earned his first multi-point effort of the campaign. The 33-year-old is centering the second line and playing on the first power-play unit early in the year. Miller has racked up a goal and four assists during a four-game point streak. Over seven contests in total, he's added 10 shots on net, 12 hits, 11 PIM and a plus-3 rating. Miller should continue to offer well-rounded production as he tries to get back over the 60-point mark he missed in 2025-26.

Jenner scored a goal on five shots, added six hits and blocked two shots in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Kraken.

Jenner has scored in consecutive contests. While he's playing in a fourth-line role, he's making decent all-around contributions. The 33-year-old forward has two goals, one assist, 16 shots on net, eight hits, nine blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over five outings this season. If he can play around a 40-point pace, he'll have some upside as a depth option in fantasy.

Meyers notched two assists, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Capitals.

Meyers has posted consecutive multi-point efforts. He has a goal, four helpers, four shots on net, eight hits, four blocked shots, 17 PIM and a plus-4 rating over four appearances this season. He's been part of the Kraken's most effective iteration of the fourth line, working alongside Frederick Gaudreau and Ryan Winterton to give the team some valuable depth scoring.

McCann scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Capitals.

McCann is on a four-game point streak (two goals, two assists). The 30-year-old forward has a total of seven points, 17 shots on net and a plus-2 rating over six contests this season. With steady top-six minutes, McCann will should continue to offer upside on offense. He had reached the 60-point mark in three straight seasons before injuries limited him to 40 points in 52 regular-season outings in 2025-26.

Winterton scored a goal, added an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Capitals.

This was Winterton's second multi-point effort in a row. The 23-year-old forward has a total of five points (one goal, four assists) with nine shots on net, six blocked shots, three hits, seven PIM and a plus-4 rating over six appearances this season. Winterton looks to have a solid place on the Kraken's fourth line, which has found success early in the campaign.

Gaudreau scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Capitals.

The Kraken are getting good performances out of their fourth line early in the season. Gaudreau is up to four goals, one assist, nine shots on net, five blocked shots, four hits and a plus-3 rating over six contests. Gaudreau has earned four of those points over the last two games. He's a depth option at best in fantasy, but he's at least on the radar while he's scoring.

Lettieri had three assists in AHL Toronto's 5-2 win over Hamilton on Sunday.

Lettieri is up to two goals, five assists and a plus-3 rating over four games for the Marlies this season. The 31-year-old forward continues to be a reliable AHL scorer who could fill in for a stint or two as necessary at the NHL level.

Dagenais scored three goals in QMJHL Quebec's 7-6 win over Chicoutimi on Sunday.

Dagenais has two multi-point efforts on the season over six appearances. He's earned five goals, three assists, 31 shots on net and a plus-1 rating. The Blues prospect could do better from a consistency standpoint in the early going, but his potential is evident.

Staal (lower body) will not play in Philadelphia on Sunday.

Staal will miss his first game of the season after managing 14:12 of ice time Saturday in Chicago. The veteran center has been held off the scoresheet through six games this season while doling out 19 hits. Mark Jankowski will presumably slot into the third-line center role Sunday, while Nicolas Deslauriers is set to draw into the lineup after serving as a healthy scratch in the previous four games. Carolina's next game is at home against Washington on Tuesday.
