  • Flyers' Jamie Drysdale: Provides two assists in win

    Drysdale notched two assists, two shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Red Wings.

    Drysdale's second helper came on the power play as he set up Owen Tippett a second time. This was Drysdale's first multi-point performance since Feb. 28 versus the Bruins. The 23-year-old blueliner is up to 30 points (eight goals, 22 helpers), 91 shots on net, 82 blocked shots, 33 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 69 appearances. This is just the second time in his career he's reached the 30-point mark, and he's in a good position to top his high-water mark of 32 points from the 2021-22 campaign with the Ducks.

    Ducks' John Carlson: Three-game, seven-helper run

    Carlson delivered two assists in a 4-2 loss to the Oilers on Saturday.

    Bouchard's point streak stands at four games and eight points (one goal, seven assists). He has put up three straight multiple-point efforts. Bouchard has 20 goals and 66 helpers over 74 appearances this season. Not only has he set new career marks in goals, assists and points, but Bouchard joined the great Paul Coffey as the only other Oilers defenseman to record 65 or more assists in a single season. Coffey accomplished the feat four times.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Scores power-play goal Saturday

    Dahlin scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Kraken.

    Dahlin has found the back of the net in back-to-back games for the second time in his last six appearances. He's up to four goals, three assists, 10 PIM, 15 shots, five hits and two blocked shots over his last six games, establishing himself as a strong fantasy contributor in multiple categories. He's also up to 17 goals on the season, good for seventh among defensemen in the league.

  • Devils' Topias Vilen: Earns three assists in win

    Vilen notched three assists in AHL Utica's 5-3 win over Cleveland on Saturday.

    Vilen's production has been steady compared to last year -- he has 24 points in 57 games this season, the same total he logged in more games in the 2024-25 regular season. He has gone nine contests without a goal, but he's earned six helpers in that span. The Devils' blue line is still a strength at the NHL level, giving Vilen plenty of time to continue his development with Utica.

  • Senators' Jordan Spence: Seven points in last eight games

    Spence scored a goal Saturday in a 4-2 loss to the Lightning. He had four shots.

    Spence pushed the score to 2-0 just 4:25 into the game when he knocked a rebound into an open net. Andrei Vasilevskiy was out of position after a sprawling save, and Spence capitalized on it. Spence has seven points (one goal, six assists) and 13 shots over the past eight games.

  • Lightning's Charle-Edouard D'Astous: Three-game, five-point streak

    D'Astous had a goal and an assist in a 4-2 win over Ottawa on Saturday.

    D'Astous tied the game 2-2 with a shot from above the hash marks that beat James Reimer stick side. The 27-year-old defenseman's point streak stands at three games and five points (one goal, four assists). D'Astous has five goals, 21 assists, 86 hits, 67 blocks and 65 shots in 60 games this season.

  • Lightning's Emil Lilleberg: First NHL three-point game

    Lilleberg had a goal and two assists in Saturday's 4-2 win over Ottawa.

    It was Lilleberg's first three-point game in the NHL, and his goal stood as the game-winner. He joined a 3-on-2 rush and finished it with a sweet backhand. Lilleberg became the fourth Norwegian player in NHL history with a three-point game, joining Mats Zuccarello (41), Espen Knutsen (four) and Patrick Thoresen (one). Lilleberg has three goals, five assists, 68 hits, 36 shots and 35 blocks in 40 games this season.

  • Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Not playing Saturday

    Spurgeon (upper body) won't play against Boston on Saturday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

    Spurgeon is day-to-day and will miss at least one game after getting hurt in Thursday's 3-2 win over Florida. He has earned six goals, 19 points, 84 shots on net, 129 blocked shots and 79 hits in 73 appearances this season. Zach Bogosian will replace Spurgeon in Saturday's lineup against the Bruins.

  • Ducks' Pavel Mintyukov: Won't play Saturday

    Mintyukov (lower body) will miss Saturday's game against Edmonton, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.

    Mintyukov has eight goals, 20 points, 10 PIM, 35 hits and 106 blocks in 67 appearances in 2025-26. Anaheim dressed seven defensemen for Thursday's game against Calgary, but Radko Gudas (lower body) and Mintyukov are both exiting the lineup due to injury. As a result, Anaheim will likely shift to 12 forwards and six defensemen. Forward Troy Terry (lower body) is good to return from injury, and defenseman Drew Helleson is also drawing into the lineup.
