Korczak is considered day-to-day due to a lower-body injury and won't practice Monday.

Korczak has appeared in each of the Penguins' first 14 games of the regular season, and he's recorded six assists, 20 blocked shots, 11 hits and four PIM while averaging 18:21 of ice time. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available for Tuesday's game against the Golden Knights, but Ilya Solovyov will be a candidate to enter the lineup if Korczak is sidelined.

Hughes scored a goal on three shots in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Capitals.

Hughes gave Minnesota an early advantage just 3:42 into the first period, skating into the high slot before beating Logan Thompson for his fifth goal of the season. The defenseman continues to contribute offensively from the blue line, and his ability to create scoring chances independently complements his established playmaking skills. The goal also extended Hughes' point streak to five games, giving him eight points (three goals, five assists) over that span.

Walker scored two goals, including a shorthanded one, on five shots in Sunday's 7-0 win over the Jets.

Walker opened the scoring with a shorthanded goal in the first period before adding his second tally midway through the second. The defenseman doubled his season goal total to three while recording his first two-goal game with Carolina. Although Walker's offensive production is typically limited, this performance highlights his ability to contribute occasional scoring bursts, making him worth monitoring in deeper fantasy formats. Don't expect consistency in the scoring column from Walker, though -- he has cracked the scoresheet in just five of his 16 appearances so far this season.

Sanderson notched two assists and two PIM in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Ducks.

Sanderson has five helpers over four games on the Senators' road trip, which ends Wednesday in Buffalo. The 24-year-old defenseman is up to four multi-point efforts in eight games this season. He has a goal, nine assists, 14 shots on net, 12 blocked shots, six hits and a plus-1 rating while seeing top-pairing minutes.

Luneau notched two power-play assists in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Senators.

Luneau is on a four-game point streak, earning two goals and five assists in that span. His contributions Sunday were his first on the power play this season. The defenseman is now at nine points, 15 shots on net, 18 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 14 contests.

Morrow notched an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.

This was Morrow's season debut. The 24-year-old defenseman would require waivers to go to AHL Hartford, and the Rangers are clearly reluctant to risk losing him for nothing. Prior to this season, he earned 12 points across 45 career regular-season outings. Morrow may have a clear path to playing time if Sean Durzi (undisclosed) misses time beyond Sunday.

Bouchard scored a power-play goal on three shots, added two assists and went plus-2 in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Rangers.

Bouchard had been held to two assists over his previous three games, a rare relatively quiet stretch for the defenseman. He was back to getting significantly involved in this contest. Bouchard is up to eight goals, 18 helpers, 45 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and a plus-22 rating through 15 appearances. It's fair to question if he can keep this up all year, but Bouchard is setting a pace that would put him over 120 points if he can avoid missing time. No blueliner has earned more than 110 points since Paul Coffey's 113-point campaign for the Penguins in 1988-89.

Simashev scored a goal and blocked two shots in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers.

Simashev has three goals over his last four games. He remains in a third-pairing role, which will make it challenging for him to be a regular contributor on offense. The 21-year-old blueliner is at five points, 16 shots on net, 20 hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating across 15 appearances this season. Simashev is still a player to watch in fantasy, but he doesn't need to be widely rostered yet.

Sergachev scored a power-play goal on two shots, added two PIM, logged three hits and went minus-3 in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers.

Sergachev extended his point streak to seven games with the tally. He has three goals and five assists in that span. The 28-year-old defenseman is up to five goals, 12 assists, seven power-play points, 36 shots on net, 11 hits, 20 blocked shots, 17 PIM and a plus-1 rating across 15 appearances. Sergachev can offer a little of everything and should be a fixture in fantasy lineups.

York posted an assist and three blocked shots in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Mammoth.

York recently returned from an upper-body injury that cost him eight games. He's produced a helper, a minus-1 rating, three shots on net and seven blocks over three games since he returned. The assist was his first point of the year. York saw power-play time prior to his injury, but Oliver Bonk is now on the second unit, which could lead to less scoring upside for York moving forward.
