Hughes registered an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Blues.

Hughes missed 10 games due to a shoulder injury. The 22-year-old defenseman is up to 27 points (eight on the power play), 106 shots on net, 40 blocked shots, 24 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 50 appearances. It's not clear if the shoulder injury was related to previous injuries that impacted him early in each of the last two campaigns, though it's a concern that he continues to deal with issues in that area. As long as he can stay healthy, Hughes should be good for top-four minutes and power-play time.

Walman scored a goal in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Sharks.

Walman put up four goals in just five games in February. The 30-year-old defenseman looks to have some momentum for the stretch run, which is a positive given all the time he missed due to two injuries earlier in the campaign. He has 18 points, 60 shots on net, 52 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 32 appearances.

Mukhamadullin scored the game-winning goal, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Oilers.

Mukhamadullin missed Friday's practice as he became a new father, and he scored a day later. He's tallied twice in his last three outings, though he's not guaranteed to be a full-time player for the rest of the season. Mukhamadullin has earned four goals, four assists, 23 shots on net, 37 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating across 27 appearances while filling a bottom-four role this season.

McAvoy scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Flyers.

McAvoy extended his point streak to nine games with the third-period tally. He has two goals and 10 assists during the streak. The top-pairing blueliner has amassed five goals, 41 points, 69 shots on net, 56 hits, 87 blocked shots, 44 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 47 appearances this season. He's on pace to get back to the 50-point mark after missing it in each of the previous two campaigns.

Makar scored two goals, including an empty-netter, put three shots on net and recorded two blocked shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over Chicago.

Makar found the back of the net with just nine seconds remaining in the second period to tie the game at 1-1 before sealing the victory with his empty-net goal in the third. He's up to 17 goals, 60 points, 155 shots on goal and 95 blocked shots across 58 games this season. The reigning Norris Trophy winner is crafting another solid case for the award, and he could be fueled even further to post a strong season following Canada's silver-medal finish at the Olympics. Look for Makar to challenge the 90-point mark for the third consecutive season.

Werenski supplied two assists, fired five shots on net and dished out two hits in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

Werenski extended his point streak to nine games, setting a new Blue Jackets franchise record for the longest point streak by a defenseman. His pair of helpers Saturday brought the superstar blueliner up to 45 assists, 65 points, 195 shots on goal and 68 blocked shots across 54 games this season. Since Dec. 11, the 28-year-old defenseman has been held off the scoresheet just two times during his 35-point, 24-game stretch of play. Werenski is making a compelling case for the Norris Trophy, which could be bolstered if the Blue Jackets make a push for a playoff spot following their sluggish start to the season.

Ginning was recalled by the Flyers from AHL Lehigh Valley on Sunday.

Ginning played five NHL games in October, but he hasn't played in one since. The 26-year-old has four points (one goal, three assists) in 31 games with AHL Lehigh Valley. He's set to rejoin the Flyers roster now, but he's unlikely to draw into the lineup this time around either.

Kulikov (upper body) was removed from long-term injured reserve Sunday, per the NHL media site.

Following a 57-game absence, Kulikov appears to be good to go for Sunday's matchup against the Islanders. The Panthers moved Cole Schwindt (lower body) to injured reserve in a corresponding move. Kulikov had four goals, 13 points, 64 shots on net, 71 blocked shots and 114 hits in 70 appearances during the 2024-25 regular season.

Hamilton scored the game-winning goal on the power play in Saturday's 3-1 victory over the Blues.

The veteran blueliner gave the Devils a 2-0 lead with 16 seconds left in the second period as he ripped a shot from the high slot past Jordan Binnington. Hamilton has put a sluggish start to the campaign well behind him, and over the last 15 games, he's collected three goals and 13 points, including six points (two goals, four assists) with the man advantage.

Mayfield tallied a goal, recorded an assist and fired four shots on net in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over Columbus.

Mayfield recorded his first multi-point game of the season Saturday with a goal six minutes after sliding the primary assist on Anders Lee's tally in the second period. With the pair of points, Mayfield now has two goals, eight assists, 74 shots on net, 55 hits and 66 blocked shots across 58 appearances this season. While he has the category-coverage stats needed for deep leagues, his limited contributions on offense make him tough to trust in fantasy.
