Fortescue notched an assist and two hits in Friday's 6-1 win over the Blackhawks.

This was Fortescue's first appearance since he signed his entry-level deal Saturday. The 20-year-old defenseman put up 14 points in 35 games for Boston College prior to turning pro. Fortescue will likely be limited to bottom-four minutes as long as he stays in the lineup for the remainder of this campaign, and he may need some time in the AHL in 2026-27 to round out his development.

Robertson scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-1 win over the Blackhawks.

Robertson ended a 19-game goal drought with his second-period tally, which was the game-winner. The 25-year-old defenseman has earned five points and a plus-4 rating over his last 11 contests, though he remains in a bottom-four role for the Rangers. He's now at five goals, 16 points, 74 shots on net, 94 hits, 72 blocked shots, 36 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 63 appearances this season.

Timmins recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

This was Timmins' second game back from a broken leg. The 27-year-old has retaken a third-pairing role for now, but there's no guarantee he'll stay in the lineup over Michael Kesselring or Luke Schenn on a regular basis for the rest of the season. Timmins has seven helpers, 36 shots on net, 74 blocked shots, 28 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 35 appearances on the year.

Dahlin scored a goal on two shots and added four PIM in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Dahlin has three goals and three assists, as well as a plus-3 rating, over his last five games. The defenseman got the Sabres back within two goals late in the third period, but a comeback effort didn't materialize. Dahlin is up to 16 goals, 66 points, 176 shots on net, 75 blocked shots, 70 PIM, 63 hits and a plus-12 rating over 69 appearances in his usual top-pairing role this season.

Seider logged two power-play assists and three blocked shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Sabres.

Seider has two goals and eight helpers over his last nine outings. He set up Alex DeBrincat and Lucas Raymond on the Red Wings' first two tallies in Friday's win. Seider is up to a career-best 51 points this season, registering nine goals, 42 assists, 23 power-play points, 165 shots on net, 109 hits, 159 blocked shots, 55 PIM and a plus-22 rating over 72 appearances. Few defensemen can match Seider's all-around appeal in fantasy.

Bernard-Docker scored a goal and added two PIM in Friday's 5-2 win over the Sabres.

Bernard-Docker just signed a two-year contract extension with the Red Wings on Wednesday, which perhaps gave him a little extra confidence. His tally Friday was his first goal of the season, coming in his 56th appearance. The defenseman has five points, 38 shots on net, 83 blocked shots, 59 hits, 20 PIM and a plus-5 rating. He will likely remain on the third pairing, but he continues to have more security in the lineup over Travis Hamonic.

Ahcan scored a goal and added three assists in AHL Colorado's 6-3 win over Calgary on Friday.

With the tally, Ahcan is up to 10 goals this season. He's added 39 assists, 124 shots on net and a plus-23 rating in a career year during his sixth AHL campaign. He has two goals and 10 assists over 12 outings in March, but he remains with the AHL club since the Avalanche are healthy on the blue line.

Head coach Rick Bowness said Friday that Severson (upper body) is week-to-week, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Severson sustained the injury during Thursday's game against Montreal. He has eight goals, 32 points, 45 PIM, 39 hits and 86 blocks in 71 appearances in 2025-26. His absence is expected to result in Jake Christiansen or Egor Zamula drawing into the lineup. Additionally, Denton Mateychuk might get a role on the second power-play unit while Severson is out.

Siegenthaler notched two assists, three blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Predators.

Siegenthaler went from an 18-game point drought to consecutive multi-point outings with his second two-assist effort of the week. The 28-year-old defenseman's uptick in offense won't last in the long run, as he's still a risky defense-first option that most fantasy managers can look over. For the season, he's at 11 helpers, 53 shots on net, 84 hits, 114 blocked shots, 46 PIM and a minus-12 rating across 71 appearances.

Pulock notched an assist and blocked three assists in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Stars.

Pulock missed the previous two games due to a lower-body injury. The 31-year-old defenseman saw 20:53 of ice time in his usual top-pairing role, which is right in line with his season average. He's up to 26 points, matching his highest total in any of the previous five campaigns. Pulock has added 81 shots on net, 128 blocked shots, 47 hits and a plus-14 rating through 68 outings.
