Myers has not recorded a point in his last 21 games after being held off the scoresheet in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

That period spans the schedule between the holiday break and the Olympic break. Myers went minus-15 with 34 shots on net, 22 hits, 21 blocked shots and 12 PIM over those games. For the season, he's at just eight points with 71 shots, 91 blocks, 65 hits, 40 PIM and a minus-25 rating through 57 appearances. Myers' non-scoring production is fine, but he's on pace for the worst season of his career in which he's played at least 50 games.

Joseph scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

Joseph has a goal and an assist over his last three games. The defenseman is seeing steady bottom-four usage in the absence of Zeev Buium (face). If Buium isn't ready to return following the Olympic break, expect Joseph to stick in the lineup a bit longer, but he'll likely slip back into a part-time role once the Canucks are fully healthy. Joseph has a goal, three assists, 17 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating through 21 appearances this season.

Pettersson scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked three shots in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

Pettersson ended a seven-game point drought with the tally. The 21-year-old defenseman has seen steady usage during this latest NHL stint, but the offense hasn't followed yet. He's at two goals, eight points, 26 shots on net, 85 hits, 57 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating over 47 appearances. He was not shipped down to the AHL following this contest, so it's possible Pettersson will remain with the big club and rest during the Olympic break.

Lauzon recorded an assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots, five hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

Lauzon snapped an eight-game slump with the helper. The 28-year-old defenseman continues to fill in on the Golden Knights' top pairing alongside Shea Theodore. Lauzon will likely keep that role until Brayden McNabb (upper body) returns after the Olympic break. Lauzon is at nine helpers, 42 shots on net, 157 hits, 68 blocked shots, 50 PIM and a plus-3 rating across 42 appearances this season, so his fantasy upside is limited in most formats.

Regula was scratched for the 11th time in 12 games in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Flames.

Regula has lost his place in the Oilers' lineup, with Spencer Stastney and Ty Emberson most often playing bottom-four roles. Regula was held off the scoresheet for his last eight appearances, which may have contributed to the extended stay in the press box. This season, he has three assists, 18 shots on net, 44 blocked shots, 35 PIM and a minus-16 rating over 29 appearances.

Bouchard registered three assists, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and two PIM in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Flames.

Bouchard has stood out over the last 10 games, earning four goals, 13 helpers and a plus-8 rating. The 26-year-old defenseman picked up assists on both of Leon Draisaitl's power-play goals as well as a Kasperi Kapanen tally at even strength in this contest. Bouchard is up to 63 points (22 on the power play), 161 shots on net, 78 blocked shots, 24 PIM and a plus-11 rating through 58 appearances this season.

Whitecloud logged two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Oilers.

Whitecloud has earned three helpers over seven outings with the Flames. He's immediately stepped into a top-four role, though the increase in ice time hasn't made much of a difference for his offense. For the season, the 29-year-old blueliner is at 10 points, 46 shots on net, 86 hits, 76 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 55 appearances between Calgary and Vegas.

Weegar logged two power-play assists, two shots on goal, four hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Oilers.

Weegar is picking up steam with four helpers over his last three outings. The 32-year-old defenseman made his first power-play contributions since Dec. 31 with this performance. Overall, he's at 20 points, 123 shots on net, 127 hits, 129 blocked shots, 67 PIM and a minus-32 rating through 56 appearances. Weegar's fantasy value continues to come mostly from his non-scoring production.

Faulk logged two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.

Faulk has eight helpers over his last eight games. The veteran defenseman is up to a total of 30 points (11 goals, 19 helpers), 110 shots on net, 97 blocked shots, 44 hits and a minus-3 rating through 57 appearances. He's been the Blues' most reliable defenseman this season and is two points away from matching his total from 78 regular-season outings in 2024-25.

Heiskanen logged two assists, two shots on goal, three blocked shots and two PIM in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Blues.

Heiskanen will go to the Olympics with momentum. He has 10 helpers, 18 shots on net and 13 blocked shots over his last eight outings. The defenseman is up to a total of 46 points (18 on the power play), 111 shots on net, 102 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating in 55 appearances. As long as he stays healthy, he's in position to reach the 60-point mark for just the second time in his career.
