Hurricanes' Jordan Martinook: Nets game-winner
Martinook scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 4-2 victory over Tampa Bay.
Martinook threw the puck toward Andrei Vasilevskiy from a sharp angle in the left circle, and it deflected in off Victor Hedman. Martinook also delivered two hits, bringing his total up to 99 through 63 games. He has chipped in nine goals, 22 points and 90 shots on net this season.

Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Third straight win
Andersen made 17 saves in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Lightning.
Andersen has won three straight games (3-0-0), beating the Oilers, Penguins and Lightning. He's alternating starts with Brandon Bussi, who is 1-2-0 this month. Carolina sits at the top of the Eastern Conference with 90 points, so it has plenty of wiggle room to give Bussi a rest before the playoffs start. Andersen will benefit from that.

Hurricanes' Sebastian Aho: Eleven points in last nine games
Aho had a goal and an assist in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Lightning.
Aho has 11 points (four goals, seven assists) and 30 shots in his past nine games. His 68 points and 44 assists lead the Canes this season, and his 24 goals are tied with Andrei Svechnikov for second on the team. Aho sits just outside the top 20 in NHL point production this campaign.

Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: On career pace
Svechnikov scored a goal and added an assist Saturday in a 4-2 win over Tampa Bay.
Svechnikov has 24 goals, 34 assists and 172 shots in 66 games this season. His pace has quickened, with 23 points (12 goals, 11 assists) in his last 19 outings. Svechnikov could top 70 points this campaign, which would be a new career mark.

Jets' Owen Martin: Four more points Saturday
Martin scored a goal and added three assists in WHL Spokane's 7-2 win over Tri-City on Saturday.
Martin has six points over his last two games. He's had a few bursts of offense in the second half of the campaign, though offense still isn't expected to be a big factor for him in the professional ranks. He's up to 25 goals and 55 points through 62 outings for Spokane this season.

Vojtech Cihar LW | LA
Kings' Vojtech Cihar: Hat trick in WHL win
Cihar scored three goals in WHL Kelowna's 5-1 win over Kamloops on Saturday.
Cihar picked up the hat trick to lead the way for the Rockets. He has five goals and seven assists over seven contests in March. For the season, he has 11 goals and 30 points through 29 appearances. The Kings prospect has dominated in the WHL -- as a European player, he could move to the AHL as soon as the 2026-27 campaign.

Max Domi C | TOR
Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Goal as second-line center
Domi scored a goal Saturday in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Sabres.
It was Domi's first point in 10 games and first goal in 12 games. He also has 19 PIM in his last four outings. He's logging time as the Maple Leafs' second-line center, with Matthew Knies and Easton Cowan skating on his wings, now that Auston Matthews (knee) is out for the rest of the season.

Dakota Joshua C | TOR
Maple Leafs' Dakota Joshua: Goal and whole lot of muscle
Joshua scored a goal in a 3-2 shootout loss to Buffalo on Saturday.
He also fought Luke Schenn in the first period and put up a game-high six hits. Joshua has eight goals, five assists, 32 PIM, 38 shots and 158 hits in 44 games this season. He can bring you a hit parade if your league counts that stat.

Joseph Woll G | TOR
Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Needs teammates to step up
Woll made 30 saves in 3-2 shootout loss to Buffalo on Saturday.
Woll was a difference-maker Saturday, but his teammates mustered just 18 shots on the Sabres. The Leafs are in a spiral, and their ability to score will take a hit due to Auston Matthews' (knee) season-ending injury. Woll seems to have the upper hand on the team's No. 1 job for now, but he has allowed 21 goals and put up a 1-4-1 record since the Olympic break.

Alex Lyon G | BUF
Sabres' Alex Lyon: Sixteenth win in last 18 games
Lyon made 16 saves in a 3-2 shootout win over Toronto on Saturday.
Lyon has won five games in a row, and he's 16-2-0 in his last 18 appearances. He has a 19-8-3 record with a 2.62 GAA, a .913 save percentage and two shutouts this season. Lyon has been superb, but he will probably continue to rotate starts with Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen down the stretch.
