Dahlin scored an empty-net goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-0 win over the Blue Jackets.

Dahlin has two goals and three assists during his four-game point streak. The 25-year-old defenseman is up to 19 goals and 72 points this season, one shy of matching his career high in both categories. He's added 194 shots on net, 67 hits, 79 blocked shots, 74 PIM and a plus-16 rating over 76 appearances. While the drop in physicality isn't great, Dahlin remains a quality source of all-around production and is in his prime years.

Ekman-Larsson notched an assist and 10 PIM in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Islanders.

Ekman-Larsson missed Saturday's game against the Kings but was able to limit his absence to one contest. The 34-year-old has taken a few knocks that he's been able to mostly play through in 2025-26. He's produced 39 points, 106 shots on net, 83 hits, 68 blocked shots, 68 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 75 outings in his most productive campaign since 2018-19 with the Coyotes.

Pelech logged an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Maple Leafs.

Pelech has earned four helpers, 28 shots on net, 20 hits, 15 blocked shots and 18 PIM during a 16-game goal drought. He continues to provide steady defense in a top-four role. He's produced 16 points, 118 shots on net, 122 blocked shots, 64 hits, 48 PIM and a plus-4 rating over a career-high 79 games played this season.

Sanderson pocketed two assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Panthers.

The 23-year-old blueliner delivered his second straight multi-point effort, helping to set up tallies by Drake Batherson in the first period and Artem Zub in the third. Sanderson has two goals and five points in four games since returning from an upper-body injury, and on the season he has 13 goals and 53 points in just 66 contests, putting him four points away from tying the career-high 57 he recorded in 2024-25, with three games left in the regular season for the Senators.

Vilen was summoned from AHL Utica on Friday.

The Devils are down to six healthy defensemen as Luke Hughes (undisclosed) and Brett Pesce (lower body) appear to be out for the remainder of the season. Vilen, who could make his NHL debut in one of the final three games of the regular season, has four goals and 20 assists in 59 AHL contests this season.

Crevier supplied two assists and dished out two hits in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Hurricanes.

Crevier continued his career year Thursday with a pair of helpers on Anton Frondell's two goals. Overall, Crevier is up to 18 assists, 23 points, 110 shots on net, 119 hits and 91 blocked shots across 75 games this season. The 24-year-old blueliner has six points over his last eight games. He's maintained high-level category coverage in that span with nine shots on net, eight hits and 17 blocked shots. He holds solid streaming value in deep leagues and has high upside in dynasty formats if he can continue his all-around production next season.

Karlsson collected a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils.

The veteran blueliner continues to run hot or cold, but mostly hot. Karlson has produced multi-point performances in eight of the last 14 games, but he was held off the scoresheet entirely in the other six. Over that stretch, he's churned out nine goals and 22 points, and with three games left in the regular season for the Penguins, Karlsson sits four points shy of his sixth career 70-point campaign.

Miller tallied a goal, put two shots on net and served two PIM in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Miller found the back of the net for his second consecutive game Thursday early in the final frame. Overall, the 26-year-old blueliner has eight goals, 37 points, 122 shots on net, 99 hits and 77 blocked shots through 71 games this season. Since March 4, he's been a frequent contributor offensively with four goals, 13 points and 35 shots on net across 19 games. He's maintained strong category coverage during that time, making him a great fantasy option for the remainder of the regular season.

Seider scored a power-play goal and added four assists, two with the man advantage, in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

The five points were a career high for Seider, and the performance got him to the 10-goal and 60-point plateaus on the season for the first time. The 25-year-old blueliner is surging to close out the regular season, and over the last 16 games he's collected three goals and 19 points with 48 shots on net, 34 blocked shots, 23 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-5 rating, with nine of those points (two goals, seven assists) coming on the power play.

Walker scored a goal and placed three shots on net in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Walker found the back of the net just 19 seconds into Thursday's game to extend his point streak to four games. Overall, he is up to eight goals, 29 points, 176 shots on net, 137 hits and 122 blocked shots across 79 games this season. The 31-year-old blueliner is having a career year in many major stat categories, and with three games remaining in the regular season, he needs just one point to surpass his current career high. He offers excellent category coverage for fantasy purposes and is a strong waiver-wire pickup for the remainder of the season in leagues where he isn't already rostered.
